2019 NFL Mock Draft: Raiders rule post-Trade Deadline, Browns land playmaker
By Randy Gurzi
3. Buffalo Bills: Jonah Williams, OT, Alabama
The Buffalo Bills have their quarterback of the future. Or at least they think they do. They took Josh Allen out of Wyoming in the 2018 NFL Draft and ended up starting him very early. An injury has since sidelined him and also exposed how bad this roster is.
They may actually have the worst roster in the league, but somehow squeaked out a couple wins (even one against the Minnesota Vikings) which keeps them out of the No. 1 spot. Still, they get a premium pick here and there’s a couple of ways to go.
If there’s a wide receiver they simply fall in love with, they can snatch him up here. As of now, A.J. Brown is the top guy at the position and may be the only receiver worthy of such a high selection.
D.K. Metcalf and N’Keal Harry could be options, but Metcalf’s neck injury could scare teams and Harry may not be a top-five guy either in the Bills’ minds.
All that being said, the Bills elect to get a player who can help the entire offense play better. Alabama’s Jonah Williams is the best offensive tackle in the draft and will give Allen more time to throw. That’s about the best thing you can do for a young quarterback who is trying to figure out the next level.
