Round 1, Pick 10: Mike Williams, WR – Clemson
In 2014, the Buffalo Bills traded up to the fourth-overall selection in the draft to take Sammy Watkins. The Bills expected Watkins to be their future No. 1 wide receiver. Watkins has shown flashes of being a top receiver in this league; however, he has not been able to stay healthy.

With the uncertainty of Watkins’ health, the Bills must go out and find a true go-to guy for Tyrod Taylor. Mike Williams fits perfectly in Buffalo. He finished his final season at Clemson with 98 catches for 1,361 yards and 11 touchdowns. He is a possession receiver who can go up and get the ball in traffic, which is exactly what the Bills need.
He has the potential to be a top receiver in this league, and the Bills need someone who Taylor can look to when he gets out of the pocket to extend plays. If Watkins can stay healthy, and Williams can step in and contribute immediately, Taylor should have plenty of weapons on the outside.
With LeSean McCoy also in the backfield, new offensive coordinator Rick Dennison should have a high powered offense to make Buffalo a contender in the AFC East next season. If the Titans pass on Williams at No. 5 and no other teams trade up to get him, Williams should be there at No. 10 for the Bills.
