Bills Looking To Draft Linebacker?
Hello Bills fans. As the Super Bowl approaches, I cant stop thinking about who the Bills will take in the 2008 NFL Draft. I read an article today on realfootball365 about the Bills coaches interviewing and observing linebackers at this past Saturdays Senior Bowl. The team is looking for a weakside linebacker to replace Keith Ellison. I for one liked the way Ellison played but was a little undersized and didn’t make much noise when on the field. The best linebackers available are Keith Rivers from USC and Xavier Adibi from Virginia Tech. Putting Rivers or Adibi next to Posluszny and Crowell will do wonders for the Bills defense. I don’t know if the Bills will take a linebacker with the 11th pick because I don’t feel that is our most pressing need. The defense can really use a defensive tackle and a tall wide receiver. I would love to address both of those needs in free agency and then we will be able to draft Rivers with the 11th pick. We will have to wait and see what the Bills front office does once free agency starts. April cannot come soon enough. Go Bills.
