Will not be defeated picked Riley Reiff for the Dolphins yesterday, creating one of the better young tandems of tackles in the NFL. Today, the Bills, led by iplaythedrums, are up. They pick:
Analysis after the jump.
Since the Bills are sticking with a 4-3, Upshaw will have to go through a slight transition to move to a defensive end. However, given his pass rushing skill set, it seems like he'd be able to make the change.
Given his strength and ability to attack the ball, the Bills are making a good decision here to add some fire to their defensive line. The Bills completely imploded down the stretch last year. Beyond adding help for Ryan Fitzpatrick, adding sound defensive players who can attack the quarterback is a must.
Pick 10 is history! If you missed any of the previous picks, or want to see what trades have been made so far, check out the full schedule. If you are GM and would like to see dbcouver's awesome Big Board, go here.

Coples
would be a better pick, in my opinion.

Pass rushers in this draft are very unimpressive
he should honestly be like a guy picked around 20ish, but this draft lacks talent

I gave it an A
He had to decide between Coples, Mercilus, and Kirkpatrick I think. At least that’s who I would have in my final 4. He chose wisely among 4 very qualified players. I have OLB as their highest need, above DE so I approve Upshaw. The combine may change this.

I agree,
Very good response, we might even see ingram increase his stock, my only issue is I think coples is bpa at this spot.

Why, oh why
Must the Bills always shatter the hopes and dreams of players that I like? Good pick, though I’m not happy about it.

This shouldn't be an A pick
voters grade too easy
