Akeem Davis-Gaither

One position that may not be a major need at first glance is linebacker considering the team has Tremaine Edmunds, Matt Milano to go along with free agent signing of A.J. Klein. However, the team could use some depth at the position and the Bills front office may want to draft a replacement for Milano, who is a free agent after this year, if a long term deal can’t be reached.

A player like Akeem Davis-Gaither out of Appalachian State would be the perfect fit for this defense as well as be that depth piece that could eventually work his way into a starting role.

He was a tackling machine for this defense over the past two years with 197 total tackles, 24 tackles for a loss to go along with 6.5 sacks, 15 passes defended and one interception.
