2012 Selections
| 1.10 | CB – Stephon Gilmore | South Carolina |  |
| Another pick I had correctly in mock draft. Gilmore has been my #2 CB all season long and I think the Bills made an excellent choice here. They can start him off in the nickel spot, and in a couple of years have potential for a solid tandem in Gilmore and Aaron Williams | |||
2.9 OT Cordy Glenn,Georgia
- Great pick for the Bills. They had a huge need at OT, and got one of the best in this class. I doubt that he can be a LT, but he’s a plug and play RT for Buffalo.
3.6 Bills – WR TJ Graham,North Carolina St.
- Very similar to the Posey pick, Graham will stretch defenses and take pressure off Steve Johnson, but still a little early.
4.10 OLB Nigel Bradham,FSU
- Bills are moving to the 4-3 so they need to find some pieces to fit the transition. Bradham is an athletic OLB who should challenge for solid PT early.
4.29 CB Ron Brooks,LSU
- Bills needed some depth at CB with aging Drayton Florence and Terrence McGee both on the other side of 30. Brooks will contribute on ST and brings alot of speed to the Bills.
5.9 OT Zebrie Sanders,Florida St.
- Im a big fan of Sanders and this pick. Buffalo needed an infusion of talent and people to compete at OT. Sanders is long with quick fett and had a 4th round grade, so this is a great choice.
5.12 ILB Tank Carder,TCU
- Carder fills a need and makes great sense for the Bills who need the pieces for the 4-3. Can play inside or outside for Buffalo and brings a high motor and high football IQ.
6.8 OG Mark Asper,Oregon
- Bills 3rd O-line pick in this draft. Asper is very athletic and shows quick feet to get to the next level. Solid rotational guy.
7 K John Potter,Western Michigan

(Other Potential Needs: TE,QB,DL)
The Bills have done a great job at adding talent to their roster, and have committed to QB Ryan Fitzpatrick. Now, they must add to the offensive line, especially at OT to keep him protected. Staying on offense, look for them to get a big red-zone target to compliment Stevie Johnson. Defensively, they need more guys who can get to the pass rusher on both levels. In the secondary they still lack a true shutdown CB.
