The Bills Have to be Ecstatic

We haven't heard from the Bills brain trust yet, and it's been about 20-minutes since they picked Leodis McKelvin in the first round. But I'm sure they were extremely happy McKelvin was available when they made the 11th pick. Not only is a top flight corner, but his work as a return man is off the charts. He has a share of the NCAA Division 1-A career record with his eight return touchdowns. Obviously, the Bills have solid return men in Terrence McGee and Roscoe Parrish, but this guy brings a new option to Bobby April's special teams. Even though he played at Troy, in the Sun Belt Conference, Bills scouts were raving this past week about McKelvin's performance against heavyweights, like Florida, Oklahoma State, Arkansas, and Georgia. By all accounts, the Bills just selected the best overall CB in this year's draft.
