16. . LB. Georgia. Leonard Floyd. 19. player

Getting Mario Williams out of Buffalo was necessary, but it doesn’t help a defensive unit which was largely disappointing in 2015.

There’s no doubt the needs are biggest within the defense for the Bills, and Leonard Floyd from Georgia fits what they need the best. His versatile skill set allows him to align all over the field as a rusher or cover man, and will give the Ryan brothers exactly the impact player needed to keep the team competitive.

He isn’t the savior, but Floyd is a great start to giving Buffalo a defense they thought they had last year.
