The Buffalo Bills have a big NFL draft ahead of them. The draft is just over two weeks away, and Buffalo is currently making their final preparations. The Bills own the ninth overall pick, and they could go one of several different directions with it. The Bills obviously need a lot of help on offense, but their pass-rush could use some help as well. To that end, they'll be hosting Kentucky pass-rusher Josh Allen on a visit tomorrow, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
If nothing else, it'd be fun to have two Josh Allen's on the same team, with one playing quarterback and the other one rushing the quarterback. The Bills took the quarterback Allen in the first round last year, and are now looking to build the team around him.
They had a woeful receiving corp last season, so many have projected them to take a wide receiver early. They'll be hosting Ole Miss receiver D.K. Metcalf on a visit today, and he could be a target.

Unfortunately for the Bills, Allen will likely be long gone by the time they pick at nine. Most mock drafts have Allen going in the top five, so the Bills would likely need to trade up if they want to take him. The Bills traded up for Allen just last year, so it's clearly something they'd consider.
