2011 NFL Draft – Pick 3: Marcell Dareus, DL, Buffalo Bills

By Cory J. Bonini on April 28, 2011

The Buffalo Bills selected Alabama defensive lineman Marcell Dareus with the third overall pick of the 2011 NFL Draft.

Will Dareus immediately help the league's worst run defense?

Fantasy analysis: It will be interesting to see where Dareus primarily plays for the Bills. He can play nose guard in a 3-4 but is a better fit as a five-technique end.

His explosive style of play could immediately help the league's worst run defense of 2010. Dareus as an individual player isn't worth fantasy attention at this time, but he could improve the Bills as a unit enough to be a passable No. 2 in deep leagues.
