The Buffalo Bills face some tough choices at linebacker this off season, with two key players, Matt Milano and Shaq Thompson hitting free agency soon. Milano racked up 67 tackles and 3.5 sacks last season, while Thompson added 56 tackles and one sack after joining the team mid-year. The Bills have stayed quiet on Milano's future, keeping things uncertain, but Thompson has made it clear he wants a big payday. Buffalo scenes unlikely to splurge on the veteran, which could mean changes ahead at the position. Fans and analysts worry that losing one or both would create a huge gap in the linebacker room, turning it into a top priority for the roster. One name floating as a smart replacement is Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Leo Chanol, a 25-year-old former third-round pick out of Wisconsin. He's got two O-18 tackles, 17 tackles for loss, seven sacks and excels and run defense with top grades over the last three years.

1:04Experts predict Chanol can land a two-year deal worth $11 million, a bargain for Buffalo. Plus, new defensive coordinator Jim Lee and Hard coached him in college, which should make the transition smooth. This episode is supported by our sponsor.
