The Buffalo Bills have had a very solid draft thus far, and one of their best picks has come on Day Three in the form of a cornerback.

The Bills selected Virginia Tech cornerback Dorian Strong in the sixth round of the NFL Draft. Strong is such a prototypical Sean McDermott cornerback. He excels in zone coverage, and is a long 6-foot-1 inches tall. He had seven interceptions in his career with the Hokies, and along with Max Hairston, will bring a sense of talented, youthful cornerbacks into a secondary that really needed these kinds of additions.

Buffalo has been very defensively focused in this draft, seemingly making a point to fix the biggest issues that plague them in the playoffs.
