  1. How many big, long corners who are 6-5,35" arms and 38" vertical, oh and by the way are sub 4.5 guys. They may exist but not many. And BTW, if they have to double him with a safety over the top I would not complain, nor would the other receivers.
  2. This is one of the most unrealistic mocks Ive seen. Bandit's mock is more practical!
  3. Nah. This draft will be hard to mess up! We have a lot of options that should help the squad.
  4. Yawn. We will look back someday and realize how ridiculous all the marijuana arrests were. And, I mean were, because it is coming soon.
  5. I think we have options, which is ideally what you want. We may have a chance to secure a real elite guy, and still not decimate our draft. If that doesn't happen it is still a tenable situation to stay at nine, or trade down. In a trade down the emphasis becomes beefing up the roster as a strength.
  6. Nice Call. I think this for the benefit of someone like the 49ers, with all those picks.http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap2000000346808/article/brandin-cooks-odell-beckham-could-be-targets-for-49ers-jets
  7. Good Mock. I think it makes more sense than most I've seen. A couple things: It wouldn't take much for Watkins to be at 5 along with Evans under your scenario. Greg Robinson goes at #2 to Rams, and the Rams are in need of help on O-line. Ditto Khalil Mack. I also question Pittsburgh taking Ebron, he doesn't seem like a Steeler type because of his lack of blocking.
  8. I agree with this! I also wonder if having a matchup advantage on the outside, someone like Watkins or Evans, wouldn't benefit everyone on offense.
  9. I wonder if Minnesota still has Aaron Donald on their radar. Either at #13 or trade back up ahead of Giants. Could be a brilliant move for both teams. This one makes a lot of sense though. Passes the sniff test. Maybe we could draft Donald, and if the guy we want is still available at #13 like Z.Martin or Ebron, and pick up a #2 from Minnesota.
  10. Agreed, he could thrive in the slot.
  11. Don't forget we took Kiko in second round without a pre-draft visit.
  12. I started by picking an offensive and defensive team. Next step, eliminated 1 offense and 1 defense player for 6 rounds to get down to 10. Then matched remaining up with a team. Finally, ranked them 1-10 OT G.ROBINSON OT JA.MATTHEWS G Z.MARTIN G SUA-FILO C M.MARTIN TE EBRON SL BECKHAM WR WATKINS WR EVANS RB HYDE QB MANZIEL DE CLOWNEY DE TUITT DT DONALD DT JERNIGAN ILB MOSLEY OLB MACK OLB SHAZIER CB DENNARD CB FULLER S PRYOR S CLINTON-DIX REMOVED #1 M.MARTIN-C, TUITT -DE #2 JERNIGAN-DT,SUA-FILO-G #3 HYDE-RB,FULLER-CB #4 PRYOR-S,BECKHAM-SL #5 EBRON-TE,SHAZIER-LB #6 CLINTON-DIX-S,MANZIEL-QB REMAINING OT JA.MATTHEWS STL WR WATKINS CLE WR EVANS OAK OT G.ROBINSON ATL G Z.MARTIN BUF DE CLOWNEY HOU OLB MACK JAX DT DONALD TB ILB MOSLEY MIN CB DENNARD DET MOCK DRAFT 1-10 DE CLOWNEY HOU OT JA.MATTHEWS STL OLB MACK JAX WR WATKINS CLE WR EVANS OAK OT G.ROBINSON ATL DT DONALD TB ILB MOSLEY MIN G Z.MARTIN BUF CB DENNARD DET
  13. I agree! The guy is 6-5, has some of the longest arms in the draft (something around 35-36"), and has a 37-38" vertical. He is a 20 year old monster potential. If you always compare guys to players who are bust, and shy away, you will miss the big potential guys.
  14. Thanks for the Harvard chart. Interesting when looking at trades from last year. Are some teams still using the old chart, and getting taken by those who aren't? For example, last years Bills-Rams deal adds up to 1635 Rams, 1640 Bills, pretty even. Using the Harvard chart, the Bills committed highway robbery, getting 567 to the Rams 439! In the Miami-Oakland deal for number 3, it was very different. Old chart: Miami 2200 Oakland 1680; New chart Oakand 442 Miami 401!
  15. My theory is there are fewer trades than many people think. The Extra 2 weeks of hype has everyone over-analyzing everything. It is important to remember that this draft is viewed as the deepest in many years. So.. ask yourself, to move down, you need a dance partner who wants to move up-right! A lot of teams are talking about standing pat, and would like to move down, but can't.
  16. "They have set themselves up well so that they are not pidgeon-holed into taking a certain position to fill a great need" "because if they do that then they will not likely be able to fill the other holes that they have" I agree the premise that helping EJ out is the way to go. That being said, we can't say the above on one hand, and something different on the other. We need to be committed to doing things that will make an impact this year. IMO if Watkins is that guy, go get him, but try to avoid giving the second round pick up. As for the TE/T issue: Ebron is a great talent, but after hearing Polian talk about how immature he is, I am not enamored with picking him in the first part of the draft. I think if we stay at 9 we take an OL who can make an impact immediately. The "safe" pick, because I don't know that Ebron does much this year. If we proceed this way, then ASJ sounds good to me in round 2. We could possibly get Kareem Martin to play DE in third?, if not another WR? not sure on that one.
  17. Watching every game last year, there is an alternate outcome without too much imagination used. The Kansas City game where we out gained them about 500 to 200, as an example. I would rather be in a position like the Bills are looking forward, instead of being the team that was the beneficiary of an unsustainable record. You can always look back 15 years and attach it to the current team if you want. This is a more talented team than we have had in awhile. I choose to look forward with optimism, rather than backward with pessimism.
  18. Yup! Personally I think we need more game changers. Guys who help the players around them play better, and coach better. Some on this board want to trade down because it is a deep draft apparently. Look at what will be available in the mid-teens after a trade down. There is arguably not a player who will impact the Buffalo Bills as a game changer.
  19. If you can get to #4 in this draft, you are guaranteed one of the elite 4 (Clowney, Robinson, Mack or Watkins). Obviously, they don't expect Clowney, but you would be in a great position even if Watkins is your guy and gets taken at 2 or 3.
  20. Williams and Watkins outside, with Woods in the slot. WOW!! Watch out.
  21. It seems like our 1, our 3 and Johnson is plenty! No Two.
  22. Where is this info from, not questioning it, just curious?
