The exit of Kyle Williams could end up hurting the Buffalo Bills more than people care to admit. He’s been their anchor in the locker room for years but also one of the better interior pass rushers in the NFL. Losing that part could create serious problems for Sean McDermott‘s defense unless they make a move to counter it. Sheldon Richardson makes sense.

All signs point to him leaving after his one season in Minnesota. He had 4.5 sacks on the season so he still brings some good juice at the defensive tackle position. He’s also 28-years old and has a deep familiarity with the AFC, having been drafted by the New York Jets. It’s unlikely his market will be huge, so Buffalo shouldn’t have an issue if they make a good push.
