what makes Watkins #1 IMO is the trade. We could of had Aaron Donald, Mike Evans, Odell, Mack, Barr, Lewan, Ha Ha, Zack Martin, etc- that draft was so deep. We overpaid obviously and missed out on some HOF players potentially

I have a friend that was at Pitt while Marino was there. You speak the truth
I quickly read that article and is said Jones, Marshawn, and Dareous were only probowlers. I guess it meant for 1st rounders
Rodak is quick to point out that since 1991, only THREE Buffalo Bills draft picks have been named All-Pros. 1 of them wasn't even an All-Pro for the Bills:
1992 - Henry Jones
2011- Marcell Dareus
2012 - Marshawn Lynch (For Seattle)
I suppose Darnold/Rosen/Allen/Mayfield are immune from getting destroyed by an NFL LB or S? Jackson is much more elusive to hit.
Doug Williams won a Super Bowl. So did Jeff Holletster. And Trent Dilfer. And Jim McMahon. And Nick Foles.
Lamar is great value at 12. Michael Vick went #1 overall. And Lamar is a better version of Vick. Don't believe me?
“I could not believe what I had seen,” Vick said. “I could not believe the things he was able to do. He was a spitting image of me and the only thing that came to my mind was this kid is five times better than I was when I was at Virginia Tech
But some fools think that just because someone is more expensive, that must be better. Just because we do not need to trade two drafts for Jackson that doesn't not preclude him from outstanding in the NFL
not necessarily . Jim, Marino, and McNabb are dummies- and the test shows that. Eli, Kaepernick, Gabbert, Fitz, and Winston all scored high- they are highly intelligent. Favre was another dummy. He had to ask Detmer what a nickel defense was
I was at Mohegan Sun when Gronk was there and just missed bumping into him(my friend did). If I ever get within earshot of Gronk- I am going to yell "Go home Gronk! We forgive you. Your family misses you. Come home to your city. Help us bring the Lombardi trophy home to Buffalo!" I think that would elicit a smile from Gronk
Try and take the Wonderlic yourself. Some questions are easy, others involve time. But the hard part is you only have 12 minutes to answer 50 questions. The time thing makes it very difficult to finish whole test, and then when you look at remaining time and see how many questions are unanswered- it's easy to panic. It is a hard test in that aspect. Don't believe me- take that test and post your score
"Jackson possesses a rare combination of A-plus traits (speed, athleticism, and arm talent) that could make him a superstar dual-threat playmaker in the league for the next decade."

Dante Pettis is a WR that seems like a great fit for the Bills. And he might be best returner in draft
And if there is a QB run as expected and we are shut out of top 5- I am ok with Derwin James at 12 and Vander Esch or Rashan Evans at 22. Then stockpiling offense
He is not a 1990's hybrid. He is more of a swiss army knife. He can match up with Gronk or AJ Green or Kamara. He can line up outside, inside, at LB. He can blitz, and he can bring it. He would instantly make our defense much better
NFL teams run the nickel as a base defense 65% of the time. I am ok with a nickel defense of Derwin James, Tre'Davious, Poyer, Vontae Davis, and Micah Hyde. That would be one of best in NFL
I would consider that position too at 12. If that value is not there, I go with highest rated my board. What team could not use Patrick Peterson? We have plenty more draft picks, and maybe they like a QB outside top 4. As far as your question, open battle between AJ McCarron, whichever QB we draft, and Nathan Peterman
