#9 Buffalo Bills: Eric Ebron, TE UNC
Rory’s Take: EJ Manuel needs weapons, just not receivers. Adding a fast downfield threat in the seam will open up the shorter routes for Johnson and Williams, while their young receivers can be aggressive downfield.
Chase’s Take: The Bills would be a very explosive offensive team with Johnson and Ebron catching passes with the rushing ability of CJ Spiller and EJ Manuel’s cannon of an arm along with his scrambling ability. The more I think about it the more I like this pick, even though Mike Evans is still on the board.
