Offensive tackle ready to mark in Buffalo and the mainland

TORONTO - Ed Wang did not register a blip on the National Football League's (NFL) radar screen a year ago but now the full-blooded Chinese descendant and draft pick of the Buffalo Bills is proving to be a marketing dream for the north American sport.

Wang became the first player with direct Chinese ancestry to be drafted when he was taken in the fifth round of the April draft and is now the likely poster boy for a league looking to establish a bigger presence in China.
