Bills Select Ole Miss OG Nick Broeker with No. 230 Pick in NFL Draft
The Buffalo Bills made their first of two seventh-round picks on Saturday, selecting Ole Miss Rebels offensive guard Nick Broeker with the No. 230 pick.
Broeker is the second interior offensive lineman the Bills have selected in the 2023 NFL Draft, as they went with Florida offensive guard O'Cyrus Torrence at No. 59 in the second round.
Broeker is a versatile player who had 36 total starts while switching between left tackle and left guard.
"A college tackle, Nick Broeker’s technique and above-average movement skills make him a potential spot-starter as a zone-scheme guard; that said, his underwhelming length and power profile are concerning," SI's NFL Draft Bible wrote about Broeker.
Here's some more of what SI's NFL Draft Bible had to say in Broeker's evaluation.
A versatile four-year starter who brings vast experience, Broeker is expected to kick inside to guard in 2022, after spending the past three seasons serving as the blindside protector for Matt Corral. The move came after he met with head coach Lane Kiffin and they determined that he was best suited at that position for the pros, an indication of just how well-respected Broeker is inside the locker room. On the field, he is a master technician, constantly in correct position and demonstrating the athleticism necessary to handle strength or speed.
The Bills will pick again in the seventh round at No. 252.
