Buffalo needs to focus on linebacker...

Buffalo needs a linebacker through either the draft today, free agency, or most likely a trade. Croomwell, Elison, and Haggan just are not doing it for the Bill's D. They need one guy (well actually more than that.) that can stop the run, AND be a good pass blocker. There was talks of a Lance Briggs trade, but now I think that question is out the window as it seems Washington will land Briggs. I see them trying to trade up and select Ole Miss MLB Patrick Willis, but I'm not really sure San Francisco will let them go too far. The back-up plan would be a guy like Florida State OLB Lawrence Timmons. He has great speed, is a great hitter, and overall a well rounded player. Lacks in expierence as he only had a year of starting time, but in that year he did a lot of things for the Florida State defense. If they decided not to do linebacker look for them to go...CB Leon Hall from Michigan to try and replace Clement...

Thoughts?
