#9 Buffalo Bills: HaHa Clinton Dix, S Alabama

Rory’s Take: Jairius Byrd has likely played his last downs for the Bills and with the potential to add a playmaking and versatile safety to a defense that has a consistent pass rush would fit an immense need.

Chase’s Take: Buffalo reaches for a need with Byrd likely leaving for free agency by grabbing Dix who is largely regarded as the best safety in the draft. Buffalo could potentially wait until Round 2 to grab Deone Bucannon from Washington State if they wish to grab a more elite talent than Dix or simply trade down out of the Top 10.
