It'd be great if along with this kid, the Sabres went out & signed Sheldon Keefe so both franchises can enjoy the kief Get er done!

All these people here saying "he has a high ceiling". What makes you think that? Because the guy has big muscles? Or is it from being imprinted by the media frenzy around him? Perhaps claiming a guy has a high ceiling amounts to saying he's either gonna make it or he's not. But thats not what a high ceiling means. DK is a gym rat, has big muscles & can run really fast, in a straight line. Maybe its his muscles that hurt his agility, isn't that kind of the rub on big guys like that? They don't have the flexibility to make quick lateral moves or twitches? His production at Ole Miss was decent but nothing many other wr's havent had more of. As a specimen, he mustve dominated most others at his level, yet he didnt dominate at Ole Miss, but people expect him to in the NFL? And like many have mentioned, he doesn't run the full route tree. So once again, why do people still insist he has a high ceiling? I'd really like to know. Its the muscles isn't it? That picture of him shirtless really made an impact

he's a confident kid thats for sure. Prior to the combine process he was talking about being drafted in the 3rd to 4th rounds, even earlier. Not to say he was correct in thinking that way & in hindsight he wasn't, but dude's got some confidence in his abilities for sure. If he adds some muscle & works hard, there's definitely room for him to make this team, given the lack of depth we have at that position

Maybe he meant Takeo Spikes lol

there's that logic again... something i wish more posters had more of

the thing that i take from all this is that thank god we won't have any more prediction threads about the draft after tomorrow. Now we can move on to arguing about who will start where & who will get cut/traded instead!

Did Josh Allen have great production from Wyoming? Were you down on him too because he didnt put up 40 tds? Theres more to the NFL than college stat lines. Sure they give you some kind of indication of what to expect, but we've seen cases where great college stats mean doink in the NFL & vice versa. His measurables & numbers from his pro day are off the charts, some approaching elite level. He was projected by some to be a 1st rd talent, others 2nd rd. He's big, fast, had a good ypc & can block as well. He imo was the 4th best TE prospect in the draft. For that time in the draft, you weren't gonna get any one better at TE. And the Bills valued other positions as a greater need or value than TE for their earlier picks. So I'm just happy we got what we needed. So far another solid draft, GO BILLS!

How do you know? New England traded away from their spot right behind us, so for all you/we know they wanted Knox & traded out of that pick once we got him 1st. By all accounts he was mocked to be chosen in the 3rd round, NFL.com had him projected for the 2nd round, so it seems fine to me.

hey if u wanna be the best, u gotta beat the best. We're coming for ya New England!

i hear ya, feel the same way. Anyone who replies to you that says something different you can be sure was a big DK lover

Idk im not scared of Rosen at all. If anything i think this is a good thing. Watching Rosen lose the respect of that lockerroom in Miami & seeing him getting sacked again multiple times here in Buffalo, getting up with that stupid look on his face. Its gonna be great

All those pre draft arguments about how the Bills should draft DK at #9 & how the naysayers were wrong to be against it. I wonder what those guys are thinking now seeing wr after wr being picked before DK does. So glad we didnt reach for him at 9

memories of

Theres still some good wr's out there too. Hakeem Butler, AJ Brown, Parris Campbell, DK, Ridley. We can just let the draft come to us & still get someone good. Perhaps use one of our later picks to move back into the 3rd. No reason to rush things imo

yeah i thought perhaps the seahawks traded back yet again. Got excited there for a moment

I'm guessing if this is true they'd be bison, since bison are native to North America & buffaloes are indigenous to South Asia & Africa. But how would they react to the blasting of that stupid train whistle? Maybe it'll take a buffalo stampede to put an end to that thing @Gordio you rest your hand on the enter key during your post or something? haha

i thought all these prediction threads would be done with once the draft started. Guess i need to wait til the draft is over for that to happen lol

if you're gonna point to 'logic & common sense' in your thread title, at least spell the subjects name correctly. Logic & common sense would dictate that you should

Idk how people come up with this stuff. Our Oline was one of the biggest issues last year & we've been working to upgrade it all offseason, because you know, we have a young QB & wish to protect him. So we take one of our brightest young tackles in Dawkins & trade him along with our #9 draft pick for a DT for which this draft class has lots of depth with. It makes no sense. Trade 2 assets which are very valuable in Dawkins & #9, for a DT in which if we just picked the next BPA at DT we'd be getting a good player anyways. This idea would seem to hurt the team more than help it imo.

Shaq has come along slowly but has shown signs of improvement. I'm guessing GM's don't like to walk away from 1st round draft picks unless theyre convinced he's not worth the roster spot. They don't need to resign him right now, they don't need to dump him off the team either. They can wait & see if he is worth holding on to or they could trade him down the road. Just seems like a good position to be in & what you'd want really.

If Allen goes on to have a productive career, this trade with the Chiefs won't mean as much. But if Mahomes goes on to be the next Brady & Allen somehow busts (even though i highly doubt he will), this coulda woulda shoulda passing on Mahomes will go down as another chapter in the big book of Bills mistakes imo. Regardless of who was making the draft decisions that day.

So i guess this mock draft isn't really what you think the Bills will do, but instead what you would do or hope they do. Pretty entertaining for sure. I think most of it is highly unlikely for reasons most have already stated but I'd be happy for the most part if we got those players. Bottom line the Bills are in a good position to get some quality players & have tons of flexibility. It'll be pretty hard for them to screw this draft up. Sure I myself wouldn't pick DK at #9, & but if thats what they do we still get a freakishly athletic wr so you can't really complain. I just wish this darn draft were here already!

Yep, North Buffalo/Kenmore atm. You wouldn't really expect these things around the city until you remember spiders are everywhere. The big ones don't really bother me, they're actually pretty cool. Its the one's you can't see that get under my skin.

We found one of these nasty ****ers the other day as well. Glad to know we weren't the only ones dealing with these things. Cuz then i'd really be worried these spiders were singling us out haha. Just a sign of spring. These creepy crawlers start coming alive, so make sure to lay the law down so they get the message!
