Houston. Ed Oliver. 9. player. 16. . Defensive Tackle

The Buffalo Bills head into the 2019 NFL Draft needing help along both of their lines. Their offensive line did bring in some talent this offseason via free agency, but the loss of Kyle Williams at defensive tackle has left their defensive line with a serious need on the interior.

Enter Ed Oliver, who has become one of the more polarizing prospects in the 2019 NFL Draft. Oliver came into the 2018 college football season as one of the players in the conversation of being a potential top overall pick but issues off the field have caused him to fall a bit in the eyes of the draft experts.

However, he is an incredibly gifted athlete, and somebody his size should not be able to move the way that he does. He is a guy who should not fall out of the top-10, and if the Bills are sitting there at No. 9 and he is available, they would be landing the No. 2 overall defensive tackle this draft class has to offer.

Buffalo was a playoff team only two seasons ago, and they hit a bump in the road last season due to  the fact they were starting a rookie at quarterback. Josh Allen has his accuracy issues, but he proved that he can make plays happen with his arm, and his feet, and is definitely someone to keep an eye on in year two in 2019.
