The Buffalo Bills surprised many when they advanced to the playoffs this past year. Now, with two first round draft picks, they can even better the roster.
Adding a linebacker with excellent cover skills and a nose for the ball in Georgia sensation Roquan Smith would be a great decision with this pick.
Smith racked up over 120 tackles, including 11-plus for loss and over five sacks this past year, leading the Bulldogs to the national championship game.

He was just as strong as a sophomore in the tough SEC, making 95 tackles with five of them being for loss.
After selecting Washington defensive tackle Vita Vea a pick before this one, pairing him with Smith gives the Bills even more ammunition to fire off at New England and others in the AFC.
