While most people are focused on their top 2 picks Marcell Dareus and Aaron Williams, I believe people should be looking further down, specifically at 3rd round pick Kelvin Sheppard.
He endeared himself to the Bills coaching staff at the Senior Bowl where he showed that he was truly a sideline-to-sideline inside linebacker that is athletic, football smart, and a true 3-down player. The biggest attribute he will bring to a young Bill's defense is his leadership, he was voted as a team captain at LSU and led a very young defense that was one of the best in the nation, leading that unit in tackles in '09 and '10 and ranking 3rd in the SEC while earning 1st-team All-Conference (no small feat in the nation's best conference).
Okay Rookie, Stop being confused, study the playbook harder, and get ready to crack some heads...
