wanted to see what happened if I took a WR first. Here are the results. A bit light at DT, but the Edges and LB look nice. Offense upgrades at WR and RB replacement for Cook. Thoughts? I agree about not trading up in Rd. 2. I also think a guy drafted later like Alexander form LSU could contribute this season. Dane Jackson is a NFL CB2, so I'm really not getting the hate here. With a solid DL, I think safety may be more of an issue. Some nice guys also available later in the draft.

Today from NFL Draft Buzz. Grant and the top WRs were gone by pick 30. Nolen seems like a nice consolation. Harmon was still there, but I'd go Nolen over Harmon. PICK: 30 RND: 1 (BUF) Walter Nolen DT Ole Miss PICK: 56 RND: 2 (BUF) TreVeyon Henderson RB Ohio State PICK: 62 RND: 2 (BUF) Jaylin Noel WR Iowa State PICK: 109 RND: 4 (BUF) Jordan Phillips DT Maryland PICK: 132 RND: 4 (BUF) Billy Bowman Jr. S Oklahoma PICK: 169 RND: 5 (BUF) Tommi Hill CB Nebraska PICK: 170 RND: 5 (BUF) Jack Kiser LB Notre Dame PICK: 173 RND: 5 (BUF) Jack Nelson OT Wisconsin PICK: 177 RND: 6 (BUF) CJ West DT Indiana PICK: 206 RND: 6 (BUF) Howard Cross III DL Notre Dame

Agreed. And unlike Diggs, Cooper has no issue with being WR3 or whatever. Now, it remains to be seen what $$ he is seeking.

I'm beginning to like Mondon as our LB pick. Also love the Higgins WR pick and the Edge picks. On the other hand, I'm beginning to shy away from Harmon. He only has 1 year of productivity in College, and he seems to be more of a 3T than 1T. Would rather take something else there and get his fellow DT Caldwell later in the draft as the 1T.

def worth a UDFA look. The highlights (I know, they are biased) showed the ability to grab RB's who move laterally away. If nothing else, he may occupy the space that frees up Oliver and Groot. On the other hand, as @MarlinTheMagician noted, it's not a good sign a QB just tipped him over. Seems like an OL could do that to him, although he would be coming from a stance and not running.

from NFL Draft Buzz. Wanted to see what happens when taking a WR in 1st. I've seen Burden falling down in several simulators. Here, took him over Grant. Ended up still getting a decent DT haul, but perhaps better getting Grant and then Higgins (essentially trading Grant for Burden). Thoughts: PICK: 30 RND: 1 (BUF) Luther Burden III WR Missouri PROFILE PICK: 56 RND: 2 (BUF) Alfred Collins DT Texas PROFILE PICK: 62 RND: 2 (BUF) Jayden Higgins WR Iowa State PROFILE PICK: 109 RND: 4 (BUF) Zy Alexander CB LSU PROFILE PICK: 132 RND: 4 (BUF) Billy Bowman Jr. S Oklahoma PROFILE PICK: 169 RND: 5 (BUF) Raheim Sanders RB South Carolina PROFILE PICK: 170 RND: 5 (BUF) Jay Higgins LB Iowa PROFILE PICK: 173 RND: 5 (BUF) JJ Pegues DT Ole Miss PROFILE PICK: 177 RND: 6 (BUF) RJ Oben DL-EDGE Notre Dame PROFILE PICK: 206 RND: 6 (BUF) Nazir Stackhouse DL Georgia

this should increase the popularity of the Bills among the NFL's female fans. Those who believe in "The NFL Script" should be happy.

the beauty of this is it should prevent the Pats from obtaining a WR in the draft this year or next. If they draft one, and that person gets targets, the yaps will be incoming all over and a huge distraction for Maye. This is not the same Diggs the Bills signed early in JA's career. Although I guess the Pats* have the money and believe it will accelerate Maye's development, so from that standpoint, it makes sense.

RIP. Way too young.

and 2, 8, and 14 have made and/or won SBs in that timeframe. I agree, but needing to hit on the D is getting old, as is needing a WR1.

Kyle Williams is interesting (beyond the name!) because he provides a vertical-speed threat. Although, I fear he may be another guy that can't get open for Josh. See https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/Player/Kyle-Williams-WR-UNLV for some analysis. (Also, that website has a cool mock draft of its own at: https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/simulator )

Did the guy ever do the 50 pushups?

Not at Cuse pro day?! Odd it’s so close. Wax could be a nice UDFA. Meeks is also an interesting late WR target.

Trade for a 3rd. Draft 1-2 guys

trust me, I'm not advocating for the Bengals pay 2 #1 WR route and overpay a JAG TE either
