There is a second round to this thing, and those picks will start being made public today. We're far enough ahead behind the scenes, actually, that my No. 41 overall pick for the Buffalo Bills was submitted on Wednesday afternoon. (Yes, DanRoc and boomsauce were consulted once again, and no, I don't have a very firm idea on how they'll react to the player I ended up taking.)
The announcement of the second-round pick will not come until the morning of Tuesday, April 22, however, so I'm going to ask everyone a question, then use the comments section as a way to gauge how much angst my pretend draft pick will cause everyone next week. If passing on Jake Matthews for Mike Evans was any indication, I'm in for a rough Tuesday - even as the first-round pick was among the more popular selections in the Top 10 this year.
Your question: knowing who is off the board, and the other eight names between 33-40 that haven't been revealed yet, who would your top Round 2 target for the Bills be?
