Buffalo Bills

1st Round, No. 8 overall- Mike Williams, WR, Clemson

2nd Round, No. 40 overall- Mitch Trubisky, QB, North Carolina

3rd Round, No. 72 overall- Montravius Adams, DL, Auburn

The Buffalo Bills strike me as a team that could go through a total rebuild during the offseason. They have question marks all over the roster and appear ready to make a coaching change. The biggest decision they have to make is whether or not to keep Tyrod Taylor.

Even if they decide to move on from Taylor, they should focus some of their attention on upgrading the wide receiver position. Sammy Watkins is an elite talent but just hasn’t been able to stay healthy. Buffalo could bringing Clemson’s Mike Williams as a complement to Watkins and a replacement if he’s hurt again.

Williams has all the traits evaluators look for in a No. 1 wide receiver. He’s able to win with speed, with his size and leaping ability.

The Bills could target a quarterback in the 2nd round where someone like Mitch Trubisky could be available. Many have Trubisky rated as a 1st round prospect, but that’s a major stretch and should become clearer as we approach the draft.

Montravius Adams is a big-bodied defensive line prospect who has flashed the ability to make plays in the backfield. He’d add some depth to a defensive line group that has underperformed this season.
