Arkansas State. Pick Analysis. Wide receiver. Jonathan Adams. 145. player. 16. Scouting Report

The Bills may be forced to part with John Brown this offseason due to his cap number. That places a great emphasis on Buffalo adding another deep threat to their receiving corps in this year’s draft.

Adams isn’t the most polished wideout in this class, but he’s got the size and athleticism to make contested catches down the field. The Bills can’t expect him to pay immediate dividends, but there’s a chance can grow into a solid starter on the outside during his rookie contract.

Cornerback. Stanford. 158. 16. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. Paulson Adebo. player

Relying on Josh Norman to serve as a full-time starter on the outside again in 2021 would be a prime example of front office malpractice by Buffalo. At the very least, they need to acquire some competition for the aging veteran.

Adebo is a big corner who flashed solid ball skills at Stanford. He’s not an elite athlete, but he’s got enough juice to hold up in man or zone coverage at the next level. Expecting him to develop into a star would be a mistake, but at worst, he should be a solid reserve early in his professional career.
