Bills seventh-round pick Justin Rogers could very well be the latest of late round picks to pan out for the Bills.

“I think this guy might be the… I don’t want to say surprise of the draft, but I do think this young man has the make up intelligent-wise and physical skills that could be very beneficial for us this season,” Bills secondary coach George Catavolos told Buffalobills.com.
