First, there was Bills RB Marshawn Lynch. Being the 12th pick in the draft, he was not a nobody, but he did get a bit overshadowed by Peterson and the other top 10 picks a touch. Lynch, who could have a monster rookie year in Buffalo, appeared confident and sure. He moved among the crowd easily and held himself well, playing the Madden games with gusto but with controlled maturity. He said he was anxious to prove he can handle the spotlight as a rookie.
"I have a job to do now, and it's business time," Lynch said. "Football is fun, but there's work now. After this (fun weekend), it's back to OTAs. We're in the middle of training now."
By most accounts, Lynch has fared well, easily slipping into the Bills' offensive scheme and casting no doubt that he can be an instant-impact player. Many view Lynch purely as a workhorse I-back, but he showed some good versatility at the team's minicamp, splitting wide at times and catching the ball well.
