Iowa’s T.J. Hockenson would fill Bills’ epic drought at tight end

‘The case for Hockenson: It’s unfair to call any player the “next Rob Gronkowski,” but the Iowa tight end shows elite ability to make plays down the seam and should be one of the better blocking tight ends in the league right away. At 6-foot-4 3/4 and 251 pounds, he ran 4.70 seconds in the 40-yard dash, the same time as Eagles Pro Bowler Zach Ertz. Gronkowski ran roughly the same (a hand-timed 4.68) entering the 2010 draft. The 6-6, 258-pound Gronkowski is a tad bigger (his arm length is 34 1/4 vs. 32 1/4 for Hockenson). NFL Network analyst Daniel Jeremiah said Jason Witten, Dallas’ 11-time Pro Bowler, is a better comparison.’

Pollock: Even the Bills will hold their own mock draft

‘“YOU TRY and let the board to fall (as you imagine it will),” Beane said. “We make every scout the GM of a team and our pro (player specialists) go through what we see their team needs are. Obviously, you’re not necessarily supposed to draft for need, but teams still do it. At that point, you start looking to see where need and skill level fit.”‘

Buffalo Bills management touts new training facility as ‘best in the NFL’; State-of-the art technology makes Buffalo a destination

‘“The Pegulas said they wanted best in class, they wanted the best facility in the NFL,” said Ciano. “Their main question was, ‘What can we do to help our players succeed?’ (They went) to all avenues to do that.”’

Sullivan: With McDermott in charge, expect Bills to look ‘D’ at draft

‘My educated guess? They’ll go for a defensive lineman with their first pick — a three-technique tackle or a rush end. Beane said he’ll take the “best player,” which is generally the case. I don’t recall any GM ever drafting someone in the first round and saying, “We took this guy, but he’s not the best player.”’

Capaccio: What to do with the ninth overall pick?

‘So, I say it’s about 50/50 that we hear commissioner Roger Goodell read a card turned in by the Bills with a player’s name on it at No. 9.’

Bills Today: ESPN’s Mel Kiper Jr. thinks people are sleeping on Bills

‘”I believe in Josh Allen,” Kiper said. “I think the Bills fans do and I know that team does internally and that organization does. Build around Josh, keep that defense going and I think the Bills could be the surprise team of the NFL this season.”’
