    Are people really unhappy with Edmunds?  I mean the kid has show a lot of potential already, his teammates rave about him, he has drawn praise from opposing teams and players, etc etc.  Is LVE having a better rookie season, sure, but he also plays on a better team.  Bills defense was a wreck the first 6 quarters of the year...then Allen got hurt and Pickerman and Company were beyond atrocious putting the D on the field a lot and frequently with short fields.  

     

    So is it really fair to compare the two situations?  I mean what if Edmunds went to Dallas and LVE came to Buffalo?  We dont really know if LVE would still be making the same impact here as he is in Dallas in that system.  

     

    Its an NFL draft, there are going to be great players found all up and down it.  You cant sit here and now hate on our staff for trading up to get a guy they coveted on draft night.  Especially given he has flashed a lot of that upside many times this year.  He hasn't had a perfect year, but hes a rookie on a 4 win team.  

     

    I mean what is the point of this?  Why cant both teams have gotten a player who can be good for a very long time?  This need to try and always prove the Bills made a mistake is foolish.  When I sit back and look at our draft, the first thing that pops out to me is WOW.  We look like we may have a had a monster draft...landing both Allen and Edmunds, to go along with Taron, Phillips, and Teller who all look like they have the potential to be good rotational guys or better.  

     

    Two strong drafts = People still complaining.  I mean people act like a GM is supposed to magically identify who the player on the board still is going to have the absolute best career with each pick.  Its insane the way fans nit pick these drafts once they safely have all the data way after the fact.  

     

    Bills had a good draft.  Period.  Move on.

     

    He's raw but I like him and again McDermott deserves the benefit of the doubt when it comes to DB's and LB's. I trust him.

    Maybe. He reminds me a lot of Corderelle Patterson. Big, strong, going to blow up the combine, but not an accomplished route runner and he'll have trouble gaining separation at the NFL level. I think his upside is as a really good #2 guy who stretches the field, but not sure he's got the polish to be a #1 guy. 

     

    Whatever happens there are going to be tons of options available. This is a great year to need a WR. 

     

    I love Kelvin Harmon. Not as explosive as Metcalf or big but he's probably going to run a 4.5 and he has good size at 6'2 216. For a junior he's got the nuances down on playing the position. 

     

    Check again on Metcalf though. Other than the size and athletic ability his biggest strength is his release and the separation he creates and unlike AJ Brown who strictly plays in the slot he's always on the perimeter. He only runs three routes at the moment but he's a mega talent. 

     

    It's more likely we're going with Ed Oliver, Clelin Ferrell, Josh Allen or Greedy Williams with our first pick anyways.

    I think he's overrated. More of a physical freak than an accomplished wide receiver. 

     

    Harry, Brown and Harmon are all rated as top 10 players on some big boards. 

     

    This draft is loaded at WR. 

     

    Josh Allen and Tremaine Edmunds were physical freaks that were considered projects. Metcalf has a lot of room to grow but I wouldn't be surprised if Beane fell in love with him.

    Metcalf is the only WR I would consider in the top 10. This is a deep WR class, there will be some good value in round 2.

     

    My dream offseason would be adding a guard and center in free agency. Then drafting an OT in round 1. Then hopefully we can hit on a WR in round 2 and a RB in round 3.

     

    We have lots of free agent money, so hopefully we can add a WR2 a decent TE and some defensive depth.

     

    Matt Paradis-C  and Daryl Williams-RT are the OL I want in FA. That's two areas of need solved. I think we can get an Alex Bars or Beau Benzschawel in the 3rd or 4th to solve the RG position.

     

    And you're correct with the Metcalf take. He's the only guy I consider in the Top 10 if we can get his injury record cleared. I really like Kelvin Harmon too but this is about 20 spots too high for him.

    CBS new mock draft has us taking Miss St DT at 6.  No, just no.

     

    One thing I did notice about the recent mock drafts is there is A LOT of wide receiver talent on the board in Round 2.  Like DL, it's a very deep draft and you will still have Round 1 talent available in Rd 2.

     

     

     

    Great player but he's not Oliver or Williams and he's a sketchy character guy which McBeane will not want
