15. Buffalo Bills- Jack Conklin, OL, Michigan State
Michigan State’s Jack Conklin is the type of player Rex Ryan will be drawn to thanks to his physical style of play. Conklin excels at opening running lanes and driving defenders off the line of scrimmage. He has gained plenty of experience in a ground-and-pound attack while at Michigan State.
The Bills have a few needs along the offensive line including right tackle and guard. These are the two positions where Conklin projects the best at the next level. He lacks the movement skills to hold up in pass protection at left tackle.
However, Rex and the Bills would be more than happy with his run blocking skills.
