O.J. Howard. 10. player. 16. The Buffalo Bills still have QB Tyrod Taylor and 2014 first-round WR Sammy Watkins on that offense. But they lost WRs Marquise Goodwin and Robert Woods in free agency this offseason. Like the Bengals, the Bills need more than just one threat at WR to be consistent on offense. <p>They already have a solid O-line and RB LeSean McCoy to take care of things on the ground. The Bills should have learned by now that they don’t need a WR to be a No. 2 or a No. 1 WR. New England Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski has caught a lot of passes on them over the years.</p> <p>And former Alabama TE O.J. Howard would present the same type of matchup nightmare Gronkowski does. The 6’6″, 251-pounder would be even harder on a defense because he’s faster. So he’s an even bigger vertical threat while he’s also a go-to guy on third down.</p> <p>He’s also one of the best blocking TEs coming out of college so they lose nothing from the running game. The Patriots stole CB Stephon Gilmore in free agency this offseason but they can survive that. If Shaq Lawson and Reggie Ragland, 2016’s top-2 draft picks perform well, the AFC East could be interesting.</p>. TE. Alabama
