2019 Buffalo Bills scouting report: defensive tackle Jordan Phillips

The Buffalo Bills have few spots along the roster that appear to be more set than the defensive tackle position. After losing the unit’s leader, Kyle Williams, when the veteran retired following the 2018 season, the Bills added only one player—ninth overall pick Ed Oliver, to what was already a pretty solid positional grouping.

With a focus on heavy rotation a hallmark of Sean McDermott’s defensive-line usage, depth along the front lines is essential. The Bills have invested heavily in the interior defensive line, spending a total of two top-96 picks and $20.
