Who should the Bills be targeting in the NFL Draft?

Alabama MLB Rolando McClain is the best available player here, but I could never mock him to the Bills at 9 before because, despite their major need for a middle linebacker and someone to help stop the run, McClain doesn’t have top ten pick value as a 4-3 middle linebacker. However, now that the Bills have switched to a 3-4 with a new regime in town, it becomes more likely that they will draft McClain here. The first thing a new regime will do when it comes to town, after bringing in their own guy at quarterback if they feel it necessary, will be getting guys to fit their system, especially if they drastically change the system, like from a 4-3 zone to a 3-4. They don’t have anyone who fits the 3-4 middle linebacker position on their roster because all of their linebackers are too small, as they could be in a zone 4-3. McClain helps a team that was 31st in the league against the run not become worse this year, and also is the best available player.
