'“The 3-4, there's a lot to learn with it. The 4-3, it's simple. Put your hand in the dirt, go get the quarterback and set the edge in the run game.”'

'Starting at tight end, Nick O'Leary figures to be the second option behind Charles Clay. That is definitely a position I thought the Bills could have addressed in the draft, but with only six picks, it didn't work out. The team did kick the tires on free agent Gary Barnidge recently, which shows they are looking at the possibility of adding to the position. Project Logan Thomas, who was acquired late last season, is ingriguing, but it's tough to know how much he's progressed without seeing him in practice and a preseason game, at least.'

'Despite trading down to the end of the first round, the Bills still found a replacement for Stephon Gilmore. Tre'Davious White, a four-year starter at LSU, is expected to compete with Kevon Seymour for the team's No. 2 cornerback job.'

'Hickey had one year with complete control of the Dolphins' personnel department: 2014. His moves that year included signing left tackle Branden Albert, who made the Pro Bowl once during his time with the Dolphins, and drafting star receiver Jarvis Landry.'

'“The people are real nice just like you have in the Carolinas,” he said. “Family is very important in Buffalo. People don’t leave Buffalo once you get to Buffalo.”'

'“Sean is a detailed guy,” he continued. “He’s going to want everything regimented out. We’re going to be ‘bam-bam.’ We’re not going to be walking around the field. We’re going to run from this drill to this drill. From this period to this period. You’re going to see that. That’s how he’s wired and that’s what he used to.”'
