NFL Draft behind us, media members everywhere are breaking down the classes and
determining those players who can break out in their first season. Many of these
players are now in the AFC East after three of the teams had picks inside the
top 13 and even the Patriots got an impact player at the end of the first round.
For the AFC East Roundup, we’ll be recapping the draft classes of the four
teams.Buffalo BillsR1: Ed Oliver DTHoustonR2 Cody Ford TOklahomaR3 Devin

PStanfordR7 Ken Webster DBMississippi Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin
Gordon isn’t concerned about an injury that sidelined him for much of the fourth
quarter against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday.“Nah, it’s just a little upper body,
but I’ll be straight,” Gordon said.Whatever pain there might have been was
offset by Gordon matching a career high by scoring three touchdowns, and the
Chargers holding off a late Bills comeback attempt to secure a 31-20 win.“It
felt good because that just showed us what type of offense we can be,” said
Gordon, who left with just over 11 minutes remaining. “It’s good to have
confirmation, so we’ve just got to keep that going.”A week after putting up 541
yards but lacking finish in a season-opening 38-28 loss to Kansas
City
Ramon Humber Jerseys 2019 , the Chargers were less productive but more efficient. Gordon scored on three consecutive drives in helping the Chargers
build a 28-3 lead with 1:55 left in the second quarter.The Bills, meanwhile,
continued to show signs of unraveling even though rookie quarterback Josh Allen
provided the offense some semblance of a spark in his first career start, and a
week after a season-opening 47-3 meltdown at Baltimore.Veteran cornerback Vontae
Davis created a significant stir by leaving the team at halftime, coach Sean
McDermott said. Running back LeSean McCoy did not return and was still
experiencing pain in the locker room because of a rib injury. And McDermott
revealed he took over the defensive play-calling from coordinator Leslie Frazier
to start the second half.On Davis, McDermott said: “Pulled himself out of the
game. He communicated to us that he was done.”That move didn’t sit well with
Buffalo’s two senior defensive leaders.“I think the only thing to say is he’s
where he needs to be right now,” tackle Kyle Williams said.Asked where that
might be, Williams responded: “That’s not here point blank and simple.”Defensive
end Lorenzo Alexander was equally blunt when asked about Davis.“I don’t have
nothing to say about Vontae so I’ll give him a little bit more respect than he
showed us today as far as quitting on us in the middle of the game,” Alexander
said. “Never seen it, ever. Pop Warner. High school. College. Pros.”Davis was
credited with one tackle. He’s a 10-year veteran who signed a one-year contract
in free agency in March.The Bills provided Davis a chance to re-start his career
after a dispute with former Colts coach Chuck Pagano led to Indianapolis cutting
him in November.Davis made his Bills’ debut against the Chargers after being
inactive against Baltimore last week.A message left with Davis’ agent
White Jerry Hughes Jerseys , Todd France, was not returned.The Bills defense wilted in the first half in allowing the Chargers 17 first downs and 284
yards.Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers finished 23 of 27 for 256 yards and
three touchdowns, including a 10-yarder to Mike Williams , 5? minutes in.The
Chargers defense did their part in limiting the Bills to 110 yards and two field
goals in the first half.Melvin Ingram III had 1? of the Chargers’ five sacks on
a defense that was playing without Joey Bosa (foot) and Corey Liuget
(suspension).Allen produced two touchdown drives in the second half, including a
seven-play, 75-yard third-quarter opening drive capped by Chris Ivory‘s 1-yard
plunge.Allen finished 18 of 33 for 245 yards with a 3-yard touchdown pass to
Kelvin Benjamin with 38 seconds remaining, and two interceptions.It was a
modestly better showing at quarterback a week after Nathan Peterman was yanked
after completing 5 of 18 attempts for 24 yards, with two interceptions, and
overseeing an offense that managed just one first down over 10 series.MCCOY
INJUREDMcCoy was shaken up late in the third quarter when he was tackled from
behind and had Buffalo center Ryan Groy fall down on him. Groy landed heavily on
the left side of McCoy’s chest as he was on the ground.McCoy returned and had a
3-yard run on the final snap of the third quarter, before missing the remainder
of the game.STILL HAVEN’T TRAILEDThe Chargers won their fourth straight meeting
against the Bills
Jerry Hughes Jerseys 2019 , and haven’t trailed Buffalo since a 23-14 loss on Oct. 19, 2008.FINALLYIt took nearly 95 minutes of game time for the Bills to
finally find the end zone. The drought finally ended on Ivory’s 1-yard plunge
with 11:06 left in the third quarter. Buffalo was the only team not to score a
touchdown in Week 1.INJURIES:Chargers: Receiver Travis Benjamin did not play
because of a foot injury.Bills: RB Taiwan Jones was being evaluated for a head
injury after he was tackled in Buffalo’s end zone after his helmet came off
while recovering a fumbled punt midway through the fourth quarter. CB Philip
Gaines hurt his right elbow while tackling Gordon.ANTHEM UPDATEChargers
offensive tackle Russell Okung stood 3 yards in from the sideline with his right
arm raised. No other players appeared to protest during the anthem.UP
