What Position Should The Bills Target in the Draft

By Steve

What the hell position should the Bills target in the 2019 draft? They may need 45+ new players and are devoid of talent through out the roster. Go offensive line? WR? Tight end? Does it matter?

I took at the NFL AP All Pro team from 2016-2018. I looked up their draft positions and averaged out the position of each. Granted things are skewed. There are 5 offensive line positions and most of the WRs and TEs are repeats. But here is what I found:

The average all pro tight end drafted position was: 64
Kelce, Ertz, Kittle, Gronkowski, Olsen

The average all pro offensive lineman drafted position: 52
Bakhtiari, Brown, Armstead, Nelson, Bitonio, Kelce, Pouncey, Martin, Yanda, Schwartz, Ramcziek, Smith, Whitworth, Norwell, Saffold, Mack, Decastro, Johnson, Daryl Williams, Osemele, Conklin, Cannon.

The average all pro wide receiver drafted position: 66.
Hopkins, Thomas, Jones, Hill, Brown, Thielen, Evans, Beckham.

There was one UDFA o-line and WR. I threw them out.

If you take out Tyreek Hill because of his reason for falling to 165 WR would actually be 49 not 66.
