Nix: Like to get 2 tackles

Offensive tackle is clearly the most pressing positional need for Buffalo with just three on the roster. But GM Buddy Nix isn’t pressing the panic button. Here’s why.

Appearing on Bills flagship station WGR Sportsradio 550 today, Nix said they have a guy they feel is a good starter at left tackle, but that they do need to add to the position.

“I think Chris Hairston is that guy,” Nix said. ”He’s got a clean bill of health. Passed his physical yesterday. He’s 23 or 24-years old. Everything is going to get better with him. We have two starters at tackle, but we don’t have enough of them. We have to add in some way, the draft or free agency we need two guys at tackle. But as far as that being a panic situation or a reach situation it’s not.”
