Each Monday, Wednesday and Friday Buffalobills.com will be profiling some of the top talent in the 2009 draft class to give you a little more insight on some of the better prospects available this spring. They will coincide positionally with all of the draft preview features that run in the media lounge on Buffalobills.com where you can see some of the top prospects in action.
