Buffalo Bills sign draft picks Matt Milano, Tanner Vallejo

Buffalo Bills first-year players begin rookie minicamp today at One Bills Drive. Now that several of the rookies are making their first visit to Orchard Park, they are signing their first NFL contracts. The first two to sign their names were linebackers Matt Milano and Tanner Vallejo.

With uncertainty at the linebacker position, the duo has an opportunity to see real playing time in their rookie seasons in addition to lots of special teams work.

“Milano is a six-foot, 223-pound linebacker who fits into the weakside / nickel linebacker role that the Bills were lacking on their roster,” wrote Dan Lavoie in April.
