’30. Buffalo Bills. Kenneth Grant, DT, Michigan. We go back to our original pick for the Bills in our first mock draft of the season. There is a good reason: Grant is a really good fit for what the Bills need at defensive tackle. He should be an immediate contributor as a run defender, and the hope will be that he develops as a pass rusher while working in tandem with DaQuan Jones opposite Ed Oliver. Some mock drafts have Grant going in the late teens, while others having him around in the top of the second round. That just goes to show the uncertain nature of this year’s class. Cornerback also figures to be a consideration here, but Grant’s physical ability and potential is too good to pass up at this point. Sean McDermott is a big believer that games are won and lost at the line of scrimmage, so strengthening his defense up the gut takes priority.’
