He isn't close to the best ever. He is arguably the most physically talented ever. That's a different question.

Maybe McD will pull a Chan and George Edwards off and "convert" him to an inside 'backer?

The best Bills QB ever, right?

I have one corner left on the board and it is DJ James. That is mad to me.

Yea my desire to draft another receiver left a round and a half ago.

I think Solomon was. Sure I heard that.

He was pretty good his rookie year and year 3. He had a bad second season - but the Bills played him at 1T a lot that year after Star opted out because the other DTs were a disaster against the run

How many did it just for 2024 day 3 picks is the essay question.

He is undersized, for sure, but he has length because of his freakishly long arms for his frame in addition to an explosive first step and proper pass rush moves. Love his rip and his spin. If he was 6'4 and 265lbs he'd be a first round pick. I don't know if you can put him out there in base defense on early downs but you can carve a niche for him as a pass down specialist.

That's not true. He did nothing this past KC game, I agree. 13 seconds he was the best defender the Bills had on the field he was excellent that night. I agree he isn't quite elite. But his post season production in his first 10 career playoff games is better than Chris Jones was his first 10....

Okay so with the Bills taking Solomon and the Packers taking Oladapo I'm down to just 15 guys on my board... so here they are: 1. DJ James, CB, Auburn 2. Christian Mahogany, IOL, Boston College 3. Beau Brade, S, Maryland 4. Leonard Taylor, DT, Miami 5. Brenden Rice, WR, USC 6. Beaux Limmer, C, Arkansas 7. Malik Washington, WR, Virginia 8. Nathaniel Watson, LB, Mississippi State 9. Mekhi Wingo, DT, LSU 10. Marcus Harris, DT, Auburn 11. Javion Cohen, IOL, Miami 12. Caelen Carson, CB, Wake Forest 13. Tyler Davis, DT, Clemson 14. Dallin Holker, TE, Colorado State 15. Cornelius Johnson, WR, Michigan

Yea think he is a sub package rusher. But I like him here too.

No. Ed is close to elite. He has been fantastic the last two years. The numbers didn't pop in 2022 but when he was healthy he was dominating games and he did in 2023 too.

Okay... I like Solomon. My 11th best remaining. That's a pick I can get behind.

I agree. Very few out and out busts. Lots of guys who can play in the league. Lots of good. Not enough great.

Ed Oliver isn't elite. He is close but he isn't there. He is the second best player Beane has drafted though.

Yea that is a fair challenge.

This is till my top 10.

Fair. Maybe he was calling. Will be an interesting presser.

We have traded back. Beane thinks this is a weak day 3. He is telling us that by his actions. He is right. But if he thought that was he not trying to get up into the 4th another time or two? Empty those other picks out..... what use are they if you think the rounds 5 through 7 talent sucks?

My guess here is Solomon.

I can't say much on Ulofoshio. His name was one on my list to try and get to but I just ran out of time. I know he is an older prospect and just from watching Washington in the playoffs I think he is more of a hitter than a coverage guy. Maybe they see him as a core special teamer?

We picked a linebacker. Of course we did.

Couple of spots away from the Bills so board update time: 1. DJ James, CB, Auburn 2. Christian Mahogany, IOL, Boston College 3. Beau Brade, S, Maryland 4. Leonard Taylor, DT, Miami 5. Brenden Rice, WR, USC 6. Beaux Limmer, C, Arkansas 7. Malik Washington, WR, Virginia 8. Nathaniel Watson, LB, Mississippi State 9. Kitan Oladapo, S, Oregon State 10. Mekhi Wingo, DT, LSU

Ha! I think I have disproved my Clemson home accusations this year by absolutely hating on Ruke. Yea Trotter isn't a perfect prospect. But the "nothing" was sarcastic because as soon as he asked someone picked him.
