Their offensive line will be much better next season, they got dockery and some other guy i dont remember his name. From the Raiders I believe. 2 solid starters for their O Line. Lynch is not only a running threat but he is great out of the backfield for screen passes and has great hands. Great pick by the Bills
Jake,
They spent a fortune on the o-line this offseason. They have a young, but solid line now. It should be much better than the last few seasons now.
5 Star,
I love the move to get Posluzny. I was hoping they'd trade down to get him before NE had a chance ... surprised he lasted to Rd 2 and Marv made a hell of move giving up a 2 and 3 to get this guy.
They could still use a CB, but don't have a pick until the 4th. Youbouty missed too much time to know if he's a capable starter. With 4 late picks left they might as well take the top talents at whatever position they're at.
I'll eat crow and say the Lynch move was excellent in hindsight. They had 3 big holes to fill (McGahee's, Clements and Fletchers). Marv did well getting (most likely) 2 starters of this caliber by sacrificing a #3.

Marshawn Lynch is an absolute monster to bring down. Saw every game being a Cal alum and one, two and three guys can't get him down. He runs with a wide foot style with cutting ability and speed. He is very difficult to even get a hand on and even then he powers forward. Never goes back. Depending on how good the offensive line is, Lynch could be exceptional for year's to come. Buffalo fans got a real gem here. He wasn't expected to go quite this high but that was a testament to what skill level he has IMHO and the scouts didn't miss it.
Actually Green Bay would have snagged him up for sure at pick 16. So you are definitely wrong there.... And people have claimed Marv for reaching like last year with Whitner at pick #8 I believe it was however he looked very good in the Bills secondary. So your wrong about that as well. The cold issue could be a concern but this is the nfl he will have to get used to it.
