Though the Buffalo Bills don’t have a first-round pick in the 2015 NFL Draft, the team is still one of the most intriguing in the NFL.

After trading away Kiko Alonso, the Bills need to add another young linebacker to join Nigel Bradham and Preston Brown. Taiwan Jones hasn’t received much hype, but his aggressive playing style and ability to dominate in the running game would be a nice fit in Buffalo.

Marcell Dareus, Kyle Williams, Mario Williams and Jerry Hughes give the Bills one of the best defensive lines in the NFL, but the depth behind them is a big concern for the Bills. Adding someone like Carl Davis in the second round has to be a top priority for Buffalo.

Regardless of who plays quarterback for the Bills next season, the team could still use an upgrade on the right side of the offensive line. Cedric Ogbuehi was once projected to be a top-15 pick, but injuries have caused his stock to fall. Picking up Ogbuehi to play across from Cordy Glenn would be an excellent move for the Bills.

To put it simply, Matt Cassel, E.J. Manuel and Tyrod Taylor aren’t exactly enticing options for the Bills to start at quarterback next season, and it’s widely believed that Buffalo is a decent quarterback away from the playoffs. Bryce Petty will need some time to adjust to the NFL game, but apparently Buffalo’s staff is very high on the former-Baylor signal-caller.

Though some have speculated that the Bills could look to trade into the first round of the draft, general manager Doug Whaley has hinted that the team is more likely to trade back in the draft and acquire additional picks in the future. Depending upon how the draft plays out when the Bills first selection comes along, the team could be looking to trade back to pick up even more picks.
