NFL Mock Draft: Dallas Cowboys draft Tony Romo’s heir

Jack Conklin. 19. player. 16. <p>Despite not making the playoffs in 2015, the Buffalo Bills performed much better under new Head Coach Rex Ryan than I am sure many expected. Finishing with an 8-8 record, we certainly saw some bright spots in a Buffalo Bills team that hasn’t made the playoffs since 1999.</p> <p>The biggest need for the Buffalo Bills heading into the 2015-2016 offseason is addressing the offensive line, primarily the right tackle position. It has become evident that Cyrus Kouandjio is not the guy moving forward for the Bills, who allowed 40 sacks this past season. The team needs someone who can not only provide protection for the quarterback (whether that would be Tyrod Taylor or someone else next year) but also great running lanes for LeSean McCoy and Karlos Williams.</p> <p>Jack Conklin out of Michigan State brings strength, athleticism, and finally some stability to this Buffalo Bills offensive line. He did a decent job protecting quarterback prospect Connor Cook over the past couple seasons and showed he could play against tough pass rushers such as Joey Bosa and the nations leading sack getter Carl Nassib. Conklin will also bring the run support a team like Buffalo needs with great running backs coming out of the back field.</p> <p><strong>Previous Pick:</strong> Taylor Decker, OT</p>. Offensive Tackle. Michigan State
