Because the Bills have used all three of their first-round picks under GM Buddy Nix on players that the team has brought in on a pre-draft visit (plus two picks each in the second and third rounds, as well), it's easy to start building a list of potential Bills targets at No. 8 overall from the names above. There is, however, one more prospect that did not visit that should not be ignored.
Obviously, Syracuse quarterback Ryan Nassib will be on Buffalo's radar. The team didn't need to bring him in for a pre-draft visit because he spent the last four years playing for Doug Marrone and Nathaniel Hackett; they know him as a player better than anyone on the planet. Considered by many to be the best quarterback available this year, Nassib will definitely be in play for the Bills - and would it really be shocking if he were in play in the Top 10?
Let's add in Nassib and pare the list down to players that could be in play at No. 8. As we did yesterday, we'll have two lists: one for quarterbacks and one for non-quarterbacks. Your job in the comments section below is to order the lists by your preference. Go.
