The Buffalo Bills are starting to fill in the rest of their roster with the 2020 NFL Draft in the books.

Buffalo added seven picks through the draft and have agreed to terms with eight undrafted free agents as of this writing. With a few spots remaining on their roster, the team is starting to look at some other options on the free-agent market.

On Monday, the Bills signed linebacker Mike Bell. Here are four things to know about the newest Bills player.

1. Converting from safety

Mike Bell played safety for Fresno State from 2016-2018. During that time, Bell recorded 198 tackles, 8.5 tackles for loss, four interceptions, 16 pass deflections, two fumble recoveries and one forced fumble. According to the Fresno State website, Bell made 23 consecutive starts to finish his collegiate career.

In Buffalo, Bell is going to attempt to convert to linebacker.

2. Former tryout player

After going undrafted in the 2019 draft, Buffalo brought Bell in for a tryout. He wasn’t signed last year by the Bills, but Buffalo clearly kept their notes on the prospect.

3. Nickname is “Scooby Doo”

Since a young age, Bell has been called “Scooby Doo.”

He told the Fresno Bee that he picked up the nickname as a child. He clearly embraced that nickname as he wore Scooby Doo socks to his pro day and uses the name Supa Scoob above his Twitter handle.

4. Position change foreshadowed?

NFL.com’s Lance Zierlein may have foreseen a positive change in Bell’s future when he wrote his draft overview ahead of the 2019 draft. At the end of his write-up, Zierlein mentions that Bell lacks the speed and explosiveness to play safety.

“Deep safety with NFL size, length and athleticism who suffers from a lack of discipline and and functional speed on the back end. Bell sometimes straddles the line between anticipation and recklessness and he lacks the speed to make up for his mistakes. He is quick to jump targets and make plays from man or zone, but his eagerness to freelance and bite on baits could make him an early target of NFL quarterbacks. His bigger problem is that he showed a troubling lack of strength, speed and explosiveness at the combine that often bodes poorly for a safety’s NFL future."
