The Top 5 Unaddressed Positions of Need in the AFC
They're the 32 most organized men in football, but even they let things slip through the cracks at times.

Buffalo Bills, Quarterback

It's really hard to address this position when you don't have a selection until the second round of the Draft, thanks to the previous regime swapping it away. The current Buffalo Bills era is now paying for many of the sins of the previous one, from a depleted 2015 Draft class to a quarterback dilemma that sees former Minnesota Vikings' stopgap Matt Cassel traded to the team and pitted against 2013 first-round "bust" EJ Manuel. Not exactly the highest stakes in the world, but one would have assumed the Bills would attempt to address this position more fully, whether in the draft or free agency.

They made exactly one other move to deal with this: signing former career backup Tyrod Taylor from Baltimore Ravens. Other than that, they spent no draft picks on developmental prospects at the position, and they did not sign any undrafted players just to see what they have. Head coach Rex Ryan appears content to enter the season with what's at his fingertips, which is a big mistake.
