Bills GM/President of Football Operations Brandon Beane made a point on Monday that so many of us have concluded about this year's draft. Without giving the actual number, he said that they are on the "low end" of where they typically are in terms of first round grades. That further supports the argument to try and trade down from the 26th pick. We think Beane will certainly try to do that if he can find a partner. Assuming he can't, Adam Benigni and Sal Maiorana talk about six different areas of need for Buffalo and players they could conceivably take in that spot.

(15:55 - 18:10) Analyzing the need for an edge rusher.
(18:10 - 20:56) The case for targeting a defensive tackle to improve run defense.
(20:56 - 22:16) Addressing the linebacker position.
(22:16 - 24:06) The role of the safety position in modern defensive schemes.
(24:06 - 26:08) Evaluating the guard position and roster depth.
(26:08 - 35:04) Final summary on Beane's draft strategy, historical performance, and the necessity of trading down to acquire more value.
