OFFENSE

The Bills are hoping they improved their o-line with the improvers of guard Derrick Dockery and right undertake Langston Walker. LT Jason Peters is a participant on the rise, forming a solid left side with Dockery.

This unit of measurement took a large hit when it lost Fletcher-Baker and Spikes. Second-round pick Alice Paul Posluszny will man the middle. He's smart, speedy and can do dramas all over the field.

The Bills will sorely lose CB Nate Clements. Terrence McGee is now the figure 1 corner. 2006 third-round pick Sir Frederick Ashton Youboty will necessitate to step up.
