The Buffalo Bills stayed put at No. 170 overall in Round 5 at the NFL Draft, coming away with their fifth defensive player of the weekend.

Buffalo used their fifth-round compensatory choice to secure Ohio State cornerback Jordan Hancock on Saturday afternoon in Green Bay. Hancock, a two-year starter for the Buckeyes, is the second CB prospect drafted by Buffalo, joining Kentucky's Maxwell Hairston in Round 1.

It was the Bills' first selection since early in Saturday's fourth round when they traded up to No. 109 overall to secure Kentucky defensive tackle Deone Walker.

National Championship Pedigree

The 6-foot defensive back started 14 games for the nation's top-ranked college defense that spearheaded the Buckeyes' CFP title run. Hancock made three tackles in the 34-23 championship win over Notre Dame.

Good Springs

Hancock ran a solid 4.42s in the 40-yard dash and his 41.5-inch vertical puts him in the top tier of the entire draft class.
