Anybody got info on other draft eligible WRs with Palmer and TJ?

Yes. Absolutely. Pittman has been mentioned as a Bills target. I’m simply pointing out a possible jump start on chemistry doesn’t hurt, could that sway a decision? Who knows. But I like it. Haven’t really been a big Pittman fan, but I trust the FO regardless.

Yeah that’s not a good look

Pittman at 54 you think is too high? You think he’ll still be there after pick 87? hes got a round 2-3 grade. He 6’4” 225, 4.5 40 guy with a sub 7 3 cone... very productive in college and has bloodlines. High character guy.... those guys don’t last long. No way he makes it past the first 5-10 picks in round 3. I’d grade him 50-70...

Michael Pittman Jr working out with Josh. This makes me think Josh might have a say in if this guy will be our 2nd round pick. Defense round 1? Its definitely an advantage getting familiar now. I know this happens a lot pre season with draft guys. But Pittman is solid and maybe there’s more to the story.

One CB that caught my eye at the Senior Bowl was Kindle Vildor Georgia Southern. Put up decent numbers at the combine. Could be a guy in the slot. He measured roughly under 5’11.

What about testing for illegal substances during the season?

I say 4th too. But I’m thinking early 4th.... he’s a top 5 RB in this draft for NFL potential to me. I’d put him on the edge, give or take top 100. Josh Kelley was impressive too. I’d give him a top 5 grade too. Swift Taylor Dobbins CEH Kelley Moss & Akers a close top 6/7.....

He’s been pegged as a late 2nd or 3rd pick during the season. He shined during practices at the Senior Bowl and lit up the Combine. About a month ago, no lie I saw a mock draft that had the Bills selecting him at 22. I thought no way, but after the last month or so, after his combine I definitely think it’s more realistic. His only knock is some say he’s not physical enough. I went to the Senior Bowl practices in person. Every 50/50 ball he came down with. He should gain more of the hand use physical part as he enters the league.

As of right now, pick 22 I have Mims and Jefferson.

I like Tee Higgins. Some might say he’s not even the best WR on Clemsons roster. He did get dinged up from time to time... My assumption is he will measure 6’4” 210, run a high 4.4, maybe 4.5. I doubt his 3 cone will be sub 7. Vert probably around 35-36.... Career at Clemson was roughly 130 receptions 2400 yds. Not bad for just over 2 years. I like Mims and Jefferson better. Mims ran 4.38, fastest 3 cone in the combine with a ridiculous 6.66. 38” vert. Career stats nearly 200 receptions and 3000 yds 28 TDs. Its gonna be a tough decision. Depending on how Higgins does, I think Juedy, Lamb, Ruggs, Mims, Jefferson, Shenault and Higgins have a great shot at going round 1. That’s 7 WRs. I think over under sits at 6.

Daryl Williams is one of my top FA hopefuls.... I liked that he lined up at OG last year due OL depth and injury. Solid OT though. Bring him in to compete with Ford for the RT spot, Feliciano goes to LG. Between the 2 Oklahoma Alums, Williams and Ford, winner gets RT, the other gets RG.

Well it’s a good thing Denzel Mims is the pick now at 22....

That’s all based on that list of course. I like JOSHUA Kelley RB UCLA. Kid was a stud at the Senior Bowl practices and had a huge game. Kid measured at 5’11” near 215 lbs and ran a 4.49.

Based off that list you could say round 1 WR.... I do see Murray, Gross Matos and Kinlaw... I don’t see is grabbing another rd 1 DT, I don’t see us grabbing Murray, plus I think Kinlaw and Murray go top 20. Gross Matos? Maybe. I see WR round 1 ( of all those guys they grab the best guy on their list remaining), round2- Blacklock maybe slipping or a move up, and Jaylon Johnson who around a top 50-60 guy. Round 3- RB Moss if still there or Akers. Round 4 a guy like Throckmorton OG/OT who’s been slipping as of lately. See him going top 100, but who knows the Senior Bowl and the Combine has exposed him a bit. Round 5, DT and Slot WR. Im definitely thinking 2 WRs though. All this depends on FA for sure.

I think it would be hard to say Mims isn’t worth the 22 pick.... 6’3” 210, 4.38 40 yd dash, fastest 3 cone 6.66 (which may be a top 3 even after the cornerbacks), 38” vert. Nearly 200 career receptions, 3,000 receiving yards, 28 TDs. This kid is talented. I think the Bills can trade down a few spots and still grab him. But after the combine he may have jumped Shenault, Higgins Jefferson, Reagor IMO...... Mims has always been high for me, I think I may have been the only one really talking him up here months ago. I think we can all agree he doesn’t make it past the first 10 picks in round 2. But I honestly feel if he doesn’t go round 1, he’ll be one of the first picks day 2.

Yes I watched him in person at the senior bowl practices. Nothing to flashy but always consistent. Had a great week, made a few plays in the game. hes got solid size and speed. I see him a round 3 guy, gone by top 15 picks in the 4th at latest.

DJ Wonnam and Alton Robinson are Edge guys to keep an eye on..... 4.73 40 for Wonnum and 4.70 for Robinson.

Home is Panama City Florida. I was born and raised in Fresno. That was actually the first time I’ve been to Fresno in 10 years. I think Jaylon fits into the 45-60 range. He could be an option at 54 if he’s there.

Maybe trade back to the bottom 5-7 picks this year to gain picks, and move back up into the top 5 picks of round 2.... but he’s not gonna Trade next years picks.

Just looking over Cam Akers numbers. Kid is a stud on a dud team. Thinking anywhere between picks 90-120 ish... 4th round. Just on numbers it’s pretty impressive. Not a lot of wear on the kid either.

Ezra Cleveland I hope is targeted by the Bills. Round 3 would be a steal. I bet he goes early round 3.

One of my best friends in High School was his High School football coach at Central high Fresno California. Central high was won the Central Section title 3 years in a row, won the state title this year as well. Last 4-5 years Central has been loaded with talent. I went back home about home last month (in military), asked Kyle what he thought of Jaylon Johnson because of all the Bills chatter. He said, “best player I ever coached, one of the smartest too when it comes to football.” Said he’s a goals guy. Love to set goals. He said in the league he’d want to set goals like, lead team in Ints, then lead Division in ints, Conference, be pro bowler, be all pro. Studies film religiously. Just an amazing talent.

I see a trade back in round 1. gaining an additional early 3rd. Trade down, grab whoever is there between Shenault, Higgins, Mims or Jefferson. I’d figure the FO will have those 4 high on their boards. Giving the Bills 3 more picks in rounds 2 & 3.

I definitely think we could see a trade down, gain a 2nd or even an additional 3rd to get the best WR left at the end of the 1st. Shenault, Higgins, Mims, Jefferson etc.... get our guy and still have more than enough picks to get back up into the early 2nd and grab another top guy. Everyone should getting over the Claypool hype... I did not see anything special from him at the Senior Bowl practices. He’s a run straight guy. His route running was sub par, predictable and jerky/slow. Most CB had no problems making plays on him on intermediate routes. Slants and go route is all he’s got.
