My boss here at BSO will always say, in the hours leading up to the draft, never believe a thing you read or hear people say. We are journalist though and we report sports, so all rumors are important rumors.
The newest bit of information seems like a smokescreen, but you’ll never know. Richard Deitsch via Peter King of Sports Illustrated is reporting that the Buffalo Bills have their eyes on Matt Barkley and not Syracuse quarterback Ryan Nassib as so many have reported.
Buffalo tweeps: @si_peterking says he’s hearing Buffalo is seriously targeting Matt Barkley.

Rumor has it that Bills head coach Doug Marrone has been smitten with Barkley ever since the USC quarterback lit up the Syracuse defense with 324 yards and five touchdowns in a 2011 meeting.
