The 2016 NFL Draft is the most important in Doug Whaley's short career as General Manager of the Buffalo Bills.
Whaley was right when he said the Bills would not be making any big free agency moves this offseason, an offseason that has been very boring compared to last year's fireworks display of signings like Charles Clay, Percy Harvin, and LeSean McCoy.
The big free agency moves paid off for the Bills offense as they finished 13th overall last year.
The Bills really don't have many holes to fill on offense except at the 2nd WR position (maybe) and the right tackle position (maybe).
Harvin could renegotiate his contract and play in 2016, and the latest news on Seantrel Henderson is encouraging.
The Bills feel that Henderson, who is working through a battle with Crohn's disease that sidelined him the last four games, will be able to participate in training camp, BuffaloBills.com reports. "We got some positive news about his health," said GM Doug Whaley. "So we believe he may be able to be in that right tackle position at the start of camp."
The Bills offense wasn't healthy nor were they all on the same page mentally until after the Jacksonville debacle in London mid season.
I expect the Bills offense to be even better in 2016.
No matter how good the offense is, their defense will be the deciding factor when it comes to making the playoffs for the fist time in 17 years, or not.
Rex Ryan must replace Mario Williams and Nigel Bradham with two rookies that are going to have to learn a complicated new defense.
The Bills finished 19th in overall defense last year.
To make the jump from 19th to a top 10 overall defense (and a playoff berth) requires Doug Whaley to nail his draft picks in the same way he hit big on Darby, Miller, and Williams in the 2015 draft.
The good news for Bills fans is that the 2016 NFL Draft is "Loaded With Defensive Talent"
Can Doug Whaley hit the draft trifecta (boxed) again?
Ed Reed, Rex Ryan, and Rob Ryan think he can.
