2. A dream draft target for the Bills

The Bills have the No. 30 pick in the first round of this year's NFL Draft. Several mock drafts tracked by buffalobills.com have shown the Bills drafting from a variety of positions including linebacker, corner, offensive tackle and more. Bleacher Report came up with a dream draft target for every team ahead of the draft. B/R thinks if linebacker Matt Milano goes elsewhere, there's a perfect match that could be available in the draft.

LB Nick Bolton, Missouri

The Buffalo Bills could lose a key piece of their front seven in free agency. Outside linebacker Matt Milano will test the open market, according to John Wawrow of the Associated Press, which suggests the team won't use the franchise tag on him.

If Milano signs a lucrative deal elsewhere, the Bills can reload at the position in April by taking a versatile linebacker out of Missouri.

Nick Bolton has the short-area burst with the ability to cover shallow zones on the second level. As a full-time starter over the last two seasons, he's accumulated 198 tackles, 16.5 tackles for loss, three sacks, 12 pass breakups and two interceptions.

Although Bolton isn't an elite athlete, his football instincts serve him well at the position. He'll sniff out the run on early downs, fire through gaps for stops in the backfield and has enough speed to cover athletic tight ends. His adequate lateral quickness helps him chase down running backs in the flat, too.

Next to linebacker Tremaine Edmunds, Bolton could fill an every-down role.
