Bills want second-round value for pick

Doug Whaley is blunt about the state of the Buffalo Bills’ quarterback position.

“The way we looked at it is, we don’t have a proven franchise quarterback, that’s obvious,” the general manager said Monday during the team’s annual pre-draft media luncheon.

Given the need, then, wouldn’t it make sense for the Bills to invest the first pick they have in the draft, 50th overall, in a quarterback?

Even with the presumptive top two quarterbacks – Florida State’s Jameis Winston and Oregon’s Marcus Mariota – long gone by the time the Bills make their selection in the second round, shouldn’t they strongly consider one of the other players at the position such as Baylor’s Bryce Petty or Colorado State’s Garrett Grayson or someone else?
