Josh Allen needs to be protected. It seems Brandon Beane and the Bills front office fully understand that.
Brandon Beane traded up in the first round to get their guy in Dalton Kincaid. The Utah tight end will be an excellent blocker on top of his receiving prowess. In the second round, the dynamic duo stayed put and let the board fall to them. The Bills' front office is ferociously attacking the draft in order to fill some significant roster needs.
Specifically, the Buffalo Bills selected Florida OL O'Cyrus Torrence with their 59th overall pick. The Consensus All-American will look to make an immediate impact on the roster. The 1st Team All-SEC Offensive lineman transferred to Florida from Louisiana in 2022 and dominated.
The Bills Mafia was clamoring for the team to get help for Josh Allen as the offensive line was one of the worst positions last season for the team. While there is still a question mark surrounding the linebacker position, this is a huge win for the organization.
A to Z Sports' Tyler Browning evaluated Torrence and had the following to say
Run Blocking: Able to seal off defenders and create running lanes. Effective at performing combo blocks and passing off defenders to get to the second level
Below is The Athletic's Dane Brugler's scouting report, as well:
Overall, Torrence will struggle at times picking off targets in space (climbing or pulling), but he boasts the play strength, body control and competitive appetite to win his matchups. He is a plug-and-play zone starter in the NFL
