Resetting Bills' pre-draft visits

In years past, Thursday would have began the one-week countdown until the first night of the NFL draft.

The schedule is different this spring, with an extra two weeks before the draft, which will begin on May 8.

With three weeks remaining until they're on the clock at Radio City Music Hall, the Buffalo Bills have used 19 of their 30 allowed pre-draft visits. These visits make up a small part of the overall scouting process, which includes private campus visits, pro days, the combine, and game evaluation of players.

Here is a position-by-position look at which players have visited Orchard Park since pre-draft visits began on April 1:

Lache Seastrunk (Baylor); Jeremy Hill (LSU); Terrance Cobb (Cumberlands); Carlos Hyde (Ohio State)
