Brandon

He could end up being better than that, but I can also see him being a guy who makes a handful of highlight reel receptions on 40 catches for 400 yards.

Hopefully it works out, but its a little concerning if the QB is making the skill position picks.

I'd like to see them pick up a power RB in R4 or 5. Aside from short yardage and goalline situations, I'm concerned that until the Bills establish a deep threat, defenses are going to play them pretty tight and there's not going to be a lot of running room. Depth on both lines is always useful on day 3. So are DBs. A decent C prospect, in particular, would be a nice addition. Another WR with some downfield speed is a big need, but I'd rather have gotten a more complete player than what is likely to be left.

It may be that NFL teams just don't like him, but before anyone gloats, I would offer the peanut gallery a cautionary tale of a guy named Khalil Shakir. He was another prospect who was generally regarded as a day two prospect who got caught up in the numbers of a deep WR draft class and fell into the 5th round as teams had already filled their needs at the position. That type of thing can happen in a deep draft class. I don't know for certain if that type of scenario is playing out here for Franklin or whether teams just don't like him as much, but it wouldn't surprise me.

Greg Rousseau has been a good pick. At that point in the late 1st round, if a DE develops into a core starter and a solid player, you've done well. It's often a poor investment, with teams chasing fool's gold and a lot of them never do much of anything.

I can't say I know anything about him, though I do think I've seen him mentioned in this area of the draft. They definitely needed a reserve DT that might develop into a starter, so I assume a good pick here. They ran to turn in the card fast enough.

That was quick. Pick is in.

TJ Tampa, Troy Franklin, Braelon Allen. Maybe Devontez Walker and Payton Wilson as well.

Yes, he's one that I think will be on their radar tomorrow in R4 or 5.

The Bills like their DEs to set the edge against the run. Tough for undersized guys to find a place.

Probably better off waiting until day 3 on DT and DE. TJ Tampa and Elijah Jones available at CB.

Anyone can have a bad day. The numbers really weren't that bad, anyway. It was good enough for a 9.33 RAS score. There may be something else going on, but I also think this may be a Khalil Shakir situation where teams filled their needs early and he got caught up in the numbers in a deep draft. I don't think it's just the combine.

Tough to be upset with it considering how well he tested.

I was hoping for Troy Franklin, but this is a good pick. They definitely need a quality safety prospect.

Hoping for Troy Franklin. Expecting anything else.

They need to have some quality competition for the slot/flanker spots anyway. And this isn't really a great spot for anything else in this draft. May as well get a burner who can take the top off the defense. I think he can be more than that, too.

There goes Kneeland. Thank you Dallas Cowboys. Did. Not. Want.

Not a bad spot for Bullard at safety. I wouldn't pick any of these DEs until at least 95, if not R4.

I'd love that pick here, but I have a sinking feeling it's going to be Marshawn Kneeland. Ugh.

They've now replaced Gabe Davis, but I expect them to take a slot/flanker tonight as well, though I agree, unlikely at 60.

I hope that's the case.

At this rate, it may be midnight before they start this damn thing tonight.

McConkey, Franklin or DeJean.

I think they'll try to trade back one more time, probably to 35 or 36 and try to upgrade another 4th into a 3rd in the process. I wouldn't move back any further. I think they take Franklin or McConkey with their first pick. Pick 60 lines up on safety value in this draft, so that would be my guess there, though I could also see another WR or a DT. Might even trade up or down. If they don't select two WRs with the first two picks, I think they will with the 3rd and day three will be defensive depth and maybe an early C prospect.

If they thought DeJean was that kind of player, they should have ran to the podium at 28 and never thought twice about it, especially with Baltimore setting there a couple of picks later, always willing to draft a high quality defender that drops.
