11. BUFFALO BILLS (7-9)
LAST SEASON: Injuries, as 17 players finished year on injured reserve, and yet another turn of the perennial revolving door at quarterback -- this time it was Trent Edwards supplanting J.P. Losman as starter -- led to the Bills missing the playoffs for an eighth straight season, the longest drought in franchise history.
THEY NEED: A big-bodied receiver to complement Lee Evans, who was double-teamed most of last season; cornerback to offset Nate Clements' free-agent departure a year ago; reliable pass-catching tight end; depth at DE.
POSSIBLE FIRST PICK: CBs McKelvin or Rodgers-Cromartie; WRs Devin Thomas, Michigan State, or Limas Sweed, Texas; DE Derrick Harvey, Florida.
OUTLOOK: With right moves, and after bolstering offensive line (G Derrick Dockery and T Langston Walker) in free agency last year, and defensive line (tackles Marcus Stroud and Spencer Johnson) this offseason, Bills finally have the pieces in place to contend in AFC East.
