Clemson quarterback Deshaun Watson will reportedly visit the Buffalo Bills on Friday, less than a week before the NFL Draft.

The Buffalo Bills are still doing their homework right up until the deadline. With the 2017 NFL Draft scheduled for next week, the Bills are still bringing in top prospects for a personal workout and visit. On Friday, Clemson Tigers quarterback Deshaun Watson will visit Buffalo, an interesting move for a team picking at No. 10 overall.

Watson has plenty of potential landing spots in the first round of the draft, but Buffalo’s visit only intensifies a bit of the discussion up top. While quarterback hungry teams like the New York Giants, Houston Texans, Kansas City Chiefs and Pittsburgh Steelers are stuck picking late in the round, Watson is unlikely to fall that far given the perceived interest of teams like the Bills and other potential suitors like the Arizona Cardinals, New York Jets, Chicago Bears and Cleveland Browns.

The Bills have decided to keep Tyrod Taylor in house for another year and have a long-term developmental project in Cardale Jones already on the roster. Will they add another young player depends on how much permission Doug Whaley has to make moves for the future or the short-term. There is reportedly some hot seat talk concerning Whaley these days.

Watson had 41 touchdowns and 17 interceptions last season for the Tigers.
