Round 5 – AJ Dillon

If the Buffalo Bills just want a bruising, powerful running back to use as a battering ram against the opposing defense, then A.J. Dillon is the running back they need.

At 6’0″ and 247 pounds, Dillon was the workhorse for the Boston College offense with 845 rushing attempts over three seasons. He finished his collegiate career with 4,382 rushing yards and 38 rushing touchdowns. He was able to do all this on pretty back offenses and with opposing defenses stacking the boxes and trying to stop him.

The workload is something that may scare some NFL teams away, as well as not being a great pass catcher with only 21 receptions, but for what the Buffalo Bills are looking for he would be perfect.
