Darby as a rookie with the Bills, 2015

"He's physical, not only with the ball carriers, but as a press guy and Rex is a big press guy. He has physical attributes, height weight, plays with speed. Not great production this year, but he also wasn't challenged much this year, and he can come in and learn behind some quality corners. We had some talks, got close, but nothing came to fruition. We were excited to move down, but we're more excited to have Darby. Three things: We said at the beginning of the draft we were going to take the best player; we can take a corner every year; and with the additions the other teams have made in this division, we have to keep up in the arms race."[20]
