Fans troll Bills after latest trade with Chiefs
The Kansas City Chiefs found an unlikely partner to trade up with in the first round of the 2024 NFL draft on Thursday night.
The Buffalo Bills became Kansas City’s suitor for the No. 32 pick, trading their No. 28 selection and swapping three other choices with the Chiefs to make the Day 1 deal work.
Though both teams have been fierce postseason competitors in the past, Thursday’s move was reminiscent of another consequential trade that altered the course of both franchises.
In 2017, Buffalo swapped its No. 10 selection with Kansas City in a deal that landed the Chiefs two-time MVP Patrick Mahomes.
Fans of both teams were relentless in trolling the Bills on Thursday night, calling back to the Mahomes trade that ultimately led to the Chiefs’ dominance over Buffalo in the playoffs.
Take a look at what the Bills’ social media team had to deal with when the latest trade was announced:
I am done feeling sorry for Buffalo. When the Chiefs inevitably eliminate y’all from the playoffs, remember that you did it to yourselves. https://t.co/d1Ncmm5UxO

The Bills needed a wide receiver. They trade the pick to KC who picks the fastest wide out in the Draft. This is a terribly run franchise. https://t.co/NKba7PZN4g

No way you just gave your biggest rival (that you can’t beat) a huge upgrade at their biggest position of need for THAT!
First Mahomes, then this, what does Brett Veach have on the Bills GM?? https://t.co/63FOSwRTbR
