Mularkey studying Bills' needs in draft
A speedy No. 2 wide receiver, quarterback are top priorities.
“This is a good year for both those positions,” Mularkey said. “At receiver, I think there will be guys who end up in the second round who could be first rounders in other years. There will be a couple options when we get to our pick and we’ll have some tough choices and those two positions will probably be one of them. ... We may have to use all of our 15 minutes.”
At quarterback, Mississippi’s Eli Manning and Miami-Ohio’s Ben Roethlisberger are top five talents who will be long gone, but there’s a shot that North Carolina State’s tremendously productive Phillip Rivers will be there when the Bills select.
Mularkey doesn’t mind Rivers’ side-armed delivery and scouts believe Rivers is the most ready to play at the NFL level right now, meaning he could back up Bledsoe and eliminate the need to sign a veteran No. 2.
Sounds like he believes we could find a good enough WR in round 2, so hopefully we will get Rivers.
