25. Buffalo Bills: Andrew Booth Jr., CB, Clemson

Last season, the Buffalo Bills were one of the better teams in the NFL and they nearly knocked off the Kansas City Chiefs. In one of the most exciting games of the year, Buffalo ended up losing the game after giving up a field goal despite there being just 13 seconds on the clock.

Kansas City tied it up and then won the game despite the Bills never getting the ball. That prompted a change to the rules in overtime — for the postseason only — but that might not matter. Even if Buffalo got the ball again, they still need their defense to eventually get a stop in order to win.

That’s why they focus on that side of the ball here as they bring in Andrew Booth from Clemson. A solid defensive back who seems to get lost in some of the big names, Booth is a day one starter who has improved every season he’s been in the league. He should give them a legit No. 2 option across from Tre’Davious White and can be the No. 1 guy should White miss time again in the future.

26. Tennessee Titans: Devin Lloyd, LB, Utah

Despite losing Derrick Henry last season to an injury, the Tennessee Titans were able to secure the No. 1 seed but they still weren’t able to make it to the AFC title game thanks to the Cincinnati Bengals.

Looking ahead, they need to bolster their defense which is why they take Devin Lloyd from Utah. A three-down linebacker, Lloyd is a player who can make an instant impact for Tennessee.
