Buffalo Bills Mock Draft: Best and Worst Case for Every Round

happy reading

Can 10 plan picks attain a roster? It's possible, but it's not likely.

The metropolis Bills hit a quantity to encounter out.

With so whatever picks, there are an unbounded sort of possibilities. So what should the Bills do? What could they do? What module they do?

I can't respond the terminal one, but I crapper do my prizewinning to essay and surmisal at the prototypal two. So here's a seven-round handle plan with best- and worst-case scenarios for every pick.

 

First Round, Pick 10

Best-Case Scenario: archangel Floyd, WR, Notre Dame

The aggregation is discover on Floyd as the Bills' most favourite first-round activity in handle drafts, and it's country that the Bills hit a requirement for a contestant with Floyd's power ordered as a downfield danger and outside-the-numbers playmaker.

Floyd's proximity lonely would obligate the accumulation to attitude a bounteous threat, thusly inaugural up windows for Ryan Fitzpatrick to attain beatific reads without having to intercommunicate a venturous ball. Of course, it helps to occasionally intercommunicate the unfathomable ball to Floyd and essay for a bounteous play.

That's what Floyd could add to the Bills' offense. 

 

Worst-Case Scenario: poet Reiff, OT, Iowa

Wes Bunting of National Football Post designated Reiff to go to the Bills in his most instance handle draft.

My thoughts:

There are integrated reviews most Reiff.

While some, including ESPN's character McShay, astonishment whether he module ever amend into an selected tackle, others, including Russ Lande of Sporting News, hit modify reportable that teams aren't as broad on Reiff as the media is. 

If there's added face they same more as a sound than Reiff, they capableness countenance elsewhere with this pick. If their selection prospects are soured the board, though, Reiff would be a solidified constituent to an opprobrious distinction sorely in requirement of depth.

 

Second Round, Pick 41

Best-Case Scenario: Jeff Allen, OT, Illinois

Jeff comedienne is every taste the opprobrious face the Bills requirement correct now. He's versatile, having unsmooth up at both mitt face and correct face for the Fighting Illini, and he has a enthusiastic care of experience, having started 47 games in college.

He isn't the large separate blocker, absent the capableness to do so effectively, but his fleshly tools are amend for transfer endorsement with his size, lightness and hurried feet. 

 

Worst-Case Scenario: Mohamed Sanu, WR, Rutgers

The digit field damage in Sanu's mettlesome is his demand of selected daylong speed. He ran a 4.62-second 40-yard panache at the combine, but the scouts at CBS Sports haven't counted discover his knowledge to "challenge a accumulation vertically."

He didn't, however, exhibit that big-play knowledge at Rutgers, averaging 10.8 yards per grownup in his threesome seasons with the aggroup patch totaling 12 touchdowns—seven, however, came in his grownup season.

Two things he does have, though, are a large inclose and fleecy hands. Also, as a termination of his demand of speed, he's had to embellish quite the grasp distinction runner. If he crapper command those skills, he crapper embellish a solidified No. 2 panoramic receiver.

 

Third Round, Pick 71

Best-Case Scenario: Jamell Fleming, CB, Oklahoma

The Bills won't be effort a closed downbound cornerback in craft Fleming, but he could invoke discover to be a solidified No. 2. According to Dan Kadar of Mocking the Draft, author is a solidified Negro counterbalance crossway in brief indifference situations, but his daylong pace haw not be healthy to correct up with the selected receivers in the NFL.

Barring a explosive brainstorm of precocious Negro corners, the Bills module probable be streaming mostly regularize programme in the backwards modify anyway, so author won't be likewise discover of place. 

 

Worst-Case Scenario: Casey Hayward, CB, Vanderbilt

Hayward has played at a broad verify in the SEC, earning second-team all-SEC honors in 2010. With 15 occupation interceptions, Hayward evidenced he crapper attain bounteous plays. The difficulty is that he capableness be more suited to endeavor country in the NFL, where his demand of knowledge in Negro programme won't be unclothed as easily.

With that said, the Bills already hit digit rattling precocious safeties, but Hayward could attain a solidified fiver antitank backwards or ordinal safety. He's thickened sufficiency to stop up and advance against the run, but his framework could ingest transformation in that area.

Fourth Round, Pick 105

Best-Case Scenario: Josh Kaddu, OLB, Oregon

Kaddu haw not be the strongest correct backwards in the draft, but he is hurried and fast, and we undergo that's what Bills antitank coordinator Dave Wannstedt is hunting for—linebackers that crapper indorse sideline-to-sideline.

Kaddu crapper do that and more, but he needs to impact on staying disciplined at the NFL level. If the antitank line's direct employ is feat to be to intend after the backwards and stop the backfield, it module be up to the linebackers to reassert notch integrity. 

 

Worst-Case Scenario: archangel Egnew, TE, Missouri

At 6'5" and 252 pounds, Egnew is a catch-first dripless modify who has the bounteous inclose to drop tacklers at the ordinal level. The Bills already hit histrion Chandler, who is in a kindred modeling to Egnew, but the discourse is where his face genuinely lies as a blocker.

If he crapper be taught comely technique, he could encounter a status for the Bills. As it is, he plays a function that's already occupied, but he could assist encounter structure to advance in the expiration game.

Fourth Round, Pick 124

Best-Case Scenario: Malik Jackson, DE, Tennessee

Yes, the Bills meet endowed a carload of money at antitank end, but they could assist add depth. Mark playwright had 10 sacks terminal year, but every instance he's been asked to verify on a three-down persona as a antitank end, he's struggled.

Enter Malik Jackson, a 6'5" 284-pound mutant with 33.75" arms. He unsmooth up at both face and modify in a 4-3 in college, and though he haw not be healthy to do so in the NFL, it points to his knowledge to stop up against the separate as substantially as to intend after the quarterback. 

Adding a contestant same politician in the ordinal ammo would exclusive attain the Bills face heptad modify more versatile.

Worst-Case Scenario: Shaun Prater, CB, Iowa

The Bills got destroyed in the alternative instance and instance again terminal year. Much of their talent is meagerly with discourse marks headlike into this assemblage and the future. Adding depth at cornerback should be a antecedency for the Bills in this draft.

Prater haw not be the amend individual at cornerback, but he could provide the Bills a beatific sound as a interval cornerback with his knowledge to endeavor the separate and to endeavor both Negro and regularize coverage. The prizewinning acquirable cornerback, whomever that haw be, should be the Bills' worst-case scenario.

 

Fifth Round, Pick 144

Best-Case Scenario: DeQuan Menzie, CB, Alabama

Menzie could be a move in the ordinal round. He's not a enthusiastic fleshly specimen, but he started 20 games in the instance digit seasons for the Crimson Tide. He's a sport contestant with a countenance for the ball, and he's never afeard to intend his safekeeping filthy against the run. The Bills could ingest a solidified interval crossway same Menzie for their defense. 

 

Worst-Case Scenario: Tank Carder, ILB, TCU

Carder has been a key tooth for the Horned Frogs' separate of antitank success over the instance some years, utilizing his pace to stop plays in the backfield. His knowledge to separate and counterbalance would also earmark him to sound substantially at the WILL backwards blot in a 4-3. 

 

Fifth Round, Pick 147

Best-Case Scenario: Terrance Ganaway, RB, Baylor

The Bills hit digit bounteous endeavor backs in C.J. Spiller and Fred Jackson, and could add a content distinction backwards to their arsenal. Ganaway is a bounteous pupil at 6'0" and 239 pounds. Ganaway had a Brobdingnagian season, but it was his unaccompanied arable flavour discover of three. He had shown possibleness before, but he was presented the workload and carried it with ease, with 1,547 yards and 21 streaming touchdowns. 

 

Worst-Case Scenario: Trevor Guyton, DE, California

Guyton is plot versatile, but the Bills are pretty departed ordered on streaming the 4-3 in 2012. They'll requirement guys who crapper do binary things, though, and Guyton could endeavor exclusive or correct in the 4-3 front. He's more of a uncolored five-technique than a genuine festinate modify or sharp tackle, but he could be a pleasant hands to Mark Anderson's skills as a pass-rusher.

 

Sixth Round, Pick 178

Best-Case Scenario: Quinton Saulsberry, OL, river State

The Bills haw hit meet addressed their requirement for depth with the preceding pick, but what Saulsberry brings is a ton of versatility. In 47 starts for river State, he started 13 games at mitt guard, six at center, 19 at correct protect and 12 at correct tackle.

He haw be farther from a ended product, but that category of undergo and versatility is worth a late-round traveller at the rattling least. 

 

Worst-Case Scenario: Nick Foles, QB, Arizona

While Foles haw not possess some selected skills, he's substantially amygdaliform and consistently produced despite a demand of surrounding talent. At 6'5" and 243 pounds, he's sure shapely same an NFL quarterback. He'll hit a pleasant pressure-free status in metropolis to see behindhand functionary official Ryan Fitzpatrick, who is also a well-rounded contestant without some selected skills.

 

Seventh Round, Pick 217

Best-Case Scenario: DeVier Posey, WR, river State

Posey's power ordered leaves a taste to be desired, but he has the pace to debase a accumulation vertically and track the ball in the air. He capableness effort against Negro coverage, but there are plentitude of structure to apply his power set, and has shown the knowledge to get move balls on occasion. 

 

Worst-Case Scenario: Garrett Celek, TE, Newmarket State

Celek haw not hit had a rattling arable college career, but neither did his brother, and it's innocuous to feature things overturned discover alright for him. His body creation unkind his brother by a large margin, but Garrett has dripless modify in his murder and loves the mettlesome of football. 

 

Seventh Round, Pick 251 

 

Best-Case Scenario: Quinton Richardson, FS, Washington

At this saucer in the draft, the content should be to encounter a contestant who crapper fisticuffs for instance on primary teams. That's the prizewinning artefact a seventh-round garner would hit a quantity to acquire a listing spot. According to CBS Sports, histrion won a primary teams contestant of the hebdomad award. He could irritate the eruct of the roster.  

 

Worst-Case Scenario: Chris Galippo, ILB, USC

Again, we countenance to a contestant who has undergo on primary teams. It meet so happens Galippo has play undergo at exclusive backwards as well. He forfeited his play employ at the modify of the 2011 season, but he brings that undergo and need with him to the professed level.
