Bills draft Corner in fourth round
Football
Reggie Corner is going to Buffalo as the Bills’ fourth-round pick, No. 114 overall.
The aptly named cornerback is the fourth Akron player in as many years to be selected in the fourth round or better.
The Bills also chose a cornerback with the 11th overall pick in Leodis McKelvin from Troy.
Although Kris Kasparek, Davanzo Tate, Mike Schepp and Jabari Arthur did not get drafted, each will probably get an invitation to camp.

I have been analyzing drafts for a long time. If Jabari Arthur makes an NFL team’s final roster I will be very surprised.

Frank,
I agree that Jabari’s age and speed work against him, but he was awfully dominant in the conference. He’s also relatively new at the wide receiver position, which means there is extra upside.

At least if Jabari doesn’t work out for the NFL, he could still easily play in the Canadian Football League and still harbor hopes of someday earning a spot on an NFL roster.
Congrats to Corner. I think he is very deserving. I am surprised, though, because I didn’t hear a whole lot about him from the media “experts”.
