Center. 16. Eric Wood. Eric Wood. . . Eric Wood. . 8. player
I was so glad to see Eric Wood was a 28th overall pick, so I could add him to this list. All bias aside, Wood is more than deserving to make this top ten. He could have made this list even higher if not for a neck injury that ended his career early. The Buffalo Bills selected Wood in the 2009 NFL Draft, trusting him with a starting position from the get-go. He played in 120 career games starting every one of them.
A little trivia for you too, the Philadelphia Eagles were the original owners of the 28th pick in that 2009 draft. They traded the pick to the Bills, along with the 121st pick (Shawn Nelson) for Bills’ tackle Jason Peters. Playing his entire nine-year career with the Buffalo Bills, Wood reached the Pro Bowl in 2015. He was a key contributor to the team's playoff return in 2017, ending a 17-year drought.
Linebacker. Patrick Queen. 7. Patrick Queen. . 26. player. . . Patrick Queen
The Baltimore Ravens drafted Patrick Queen in the 2020 NFL Draft. Regarding Bills Mafia, Queen's calling card is getting truck on the trailer for Madden 24, which Queen took exception to. But we'll move on here. Queen was third on the Defensive Rookie of the Year voting and voted second-team All-Pro and Pro Bowler last season. He's still young with only four years in the league but well on his way to a stellar career.
He’s started every game of his career so far with 67 starts under his belt. He’s totaled 454 combined tackles and recorded more than 100 in three of his four seasons. The one season he didn’t total 100-plus, he finished with 98. He also has four career interceptions, five forced fumbles, 13.5 sacks, and 37 tackles for a loss.
