The one perceived troubled area of that starting fivesome is Preston, who hasn't yet been impressive during his two-year career. The 2005 fourth-round pick from the University of Illinois started eight games last season, leaving much to be desired in the process.
Regarding the 24-year-old Preston, Bills General Manager Marv Levy said in February, "It's time to find out [if he's capable]."
Given Preston's blocking difficulties in the past, there's a decent chance the Bills will look to beef up their right guard position in this weekend's draft. It likely won't be a well-known prospect, though. Instead, Buffalo could turn toward the weekend's later rounds, choosing a sleeper (perhaps Notre Dame's Dan Santucci or Auburn's Tim Duckworth) to challenge Preston and second-year man Brad Butler -- whom the team grabbed in the fifth round of the '06 draft.
