Kevon Seymour definitely seems like a Rex Ryan guy. Wonder how long it will take for the #Bills to use him, but they know their CBs.

With the 218th pick in the 2016 NFL Draft, the BUF Bills select Kevon Seymour, CB. USC: Lost snaps+inj, but great feel for position.

218 #Bills Kevon Seymour CB Very fast with good intelligence. Mirrors well. Good STed. Injuries and size hurt him. Not physical

USC cornerback Kevon Seymour taken late in Round 6. Trojans back in front of ND with most NFL Draft picks in college football history.
