TE's are also among the lowest paid positions in the NFL. I view them as a luxury, not a necessity. I'd totally be fine with Hockenson if Beane and McDermott want him, but let's not pretend that TE's are an important element for an offense. You have a couple elites who ARE focal points in their respective offenses, and then the rest are just guys. I've been against taking TE's in the top 10 in the past and probably will in the future as well. I would accept an exception to that opinion in the case of Hockenson because he is one of those rare complete TE's who can be effective as a blocker and as a receiver, but I would rather trade down into the teens and take him if possible.
For those who play fantasy football, you know how barren the field is for point producing TE's. They don't provide the impact that a RB or WR does.

Let's hope they do it so we can find out.

His defense that the switch is a common form of discipline from where he grew up in Texas is sadly very true. Growing up I had plenty of buddies that were beat (not so many switches in suburban areas anymore) as a form of discipline and it sucked but never got out of control. There's certainly that kind of culture in the rural Texas areas.. especially when and where AP likely grew up.. no doubt.
Yeah, that's why I view it differently. That's the culture that he grew up in and that's the parenting style that has been normalized and even praised where he's from.

We're gonna mock around the clock tonightWe're gonna mock, mock, mock, 'til broad daylight
Your way with words is inspiring.

See: Adrian Peterson
Someone will sign him at some point. Sadly
Yeah, but I look at his situation a little differently. It was a case of him trying to discipline his child, but clearly overstepping. Still abuse, for sure, and I'm glad he's not a Bill.

Robert Foster in 3rd and McKenzie in 4th is nice too
Because they probably weigh nothing and simply having hamstrings gives them a leg up on the competition.

If he abused his child I sure hope our team doesn't sign him after his inevitable release. And I hope he goes to jail and never sees the light of day again. There is NO EXCUSE for child abuse. Only the lowliest of humans would do that.

Interesting. I'm not sure if Metcalf will slide that far, although I do think he might still be there in the teens. I also wonder if he will be the first WR taken or not.
I highly doubt the Bills trade back into the first. The cost would be very great. I could see them trading up into the top of the 2nd, though.
-
DK Metcalf (trade down into the late teens for him)
Dalton Risner (trade up into the top of the 2nd for him)

Lorenzo is a gym beast. It's a little crazy that it took him this long to be a major defensive contributor for a team. He's a quality defender.

About 20 minutes. Bored at work. I clicked on the thread title expecting it to be a poem, and there was none. I felt cheated!
I felt similarly cheated, but I figured someone would pick up the slack. Good job!

Twas the night before the Draft,
and all through the States
football fans were pondering their favorite teams' fates.
The prospects were pondered and each given grades,
while fans wrote new mock drafts with really dumb trades.
The pizzas were ordered,
the beer was on ice,
the effort put into making man caves look nice.
When on the TV there came such a loud din,
It was goofy-haired Kiper, yapping again.
Just as the channel was about to be turned,
here came McShay, to share what he'd learned.
The flowers now blooming,
the skies a dull gray,
Gave color to a late April Christmas-like day.
As fans sat and hoped and said football prayers,
and pondered their favorite draftable players.
"Now Quinnen, now Murray, now Cheevers, now White,
now a corner named Greedy who covers them tight.
On Jacobs, on Bush, on Simmons and Fant,
On combine freak Metcalf, can he run a slant?!"
As we all nestled down and tried hard to sleep,
We were suddenly disturbed by a rather loud "peep".
I peaked out on my roof and was shocked by the scene,
A man dressed in red, Bills GM Brandon Beane!
With curiosity getting the better of me,
I asked Beane a question with curious glee:
"Who will we take? Will we draft in the current order?"
"Sorry", he said, "We'll be taking a corner!"
My dreams freshly crushed,
I slinked back off to bed,
With visions of playoff droughts fresh in my head.
But I prayed and I hoped and I tried not to worry,
For Josh Allen's here now, we'll be good in a hurry!
The draft will soon start, the future is bright,
Happy Draft Eve to all, and to all a good night!
How long did you spend on this?!

We've got speedsters. What we need is a big, traditional #1 guy.

Best kicker in the game. And likely he'll be the Raven's top scorer this year. I don't imagine the Ravens will have a high scoring offense this year.

N'Keal Harry - WR, if he goes in the 2nd round. I think he'll be one of those guys that gets taken in the 1st in those dumb "draft do-over's".

EJ because we did it for all the wrong reasons. Buddy wanted to retire but publicly promised he wouldn't until he got a franchise QB. So that meant taking a QB in that draft no matter what. It turned out to be one of the worst QB drafts in many years, but they had their mind made up. So even trading down to get him, it was a big reach.

I'm not sure why this would ever be an issue, even if they were both on the same side of the ball, even if they were both at the same position.
They would have different numbers. The officials use the numbers to differentiate players. You don't even need the names on the back of the jerseys.

With Allen on a rookie contract, we have a 4 year window to make moves exactly like this one. This year wasnt the right time when we are sitting on a top-10 pick. But next year, when we're picking in the late 20s, we could do something similar and pay that player.
The Chiefs are simply a year ahead of us.
I can accept that.

29 is more a primo 2nd than Top 10 1st rounder. Who would the Bills have drafted at 29 as good as Clark?
And by the way, Clark was a 2nd round draft pick. You can find talented guys in the late first or even in round 2 or later.

Nobody, but then they also can develop their own draft picks and not have to pay him a mega deal for 4-5 more years.

Moulds would be in the hall of fame if he didn't have 8 different crappy QB's throwing to him. I don't think you can assume any player in any draft will be that good. When you get guys like that you consider yourself lucky.

If the bills had 29 they would have made the same deal.
I don't believe the Bills would want to give up a first round pick, and more, and then have to pay the guy.

Oh. I forgot that he wasn't retired already.
