"Nigel Bradham’s voice trailed off. Standing just outside theBuffalo Bills locker room, the fourth-year linebacker looked around at the walls of the ADPRO Sports Training Complex, pictures of Bills legends hanging all around him. Bradham, who is entering a contract year, got to thinking about his future.It’s been just over three years since the Bills drafted Bradham in the fourth round and a little over six months since his breakout 2014 season ended, but he’s hearing the questions all over again. Will he fit into Rex Ryan’s 3-4 defense after a dominant year in a 4-3 scheme? Can he string together two strong years and warrant a long-term contract?"
