    That is an about as good a schedule as you can hope for.

    Third easiest schedule in the league (supposedly), open with two on the road but they're in the same stadium, BIG stretch of home games after that, a Turkey Day game, no prime time games, and our division rival games are all spaced pretty evenly apart. The ONLY nit I could pick with our schedule is that the bye week is too early.

    In the end, I just feel bad for the Bills players: They have to spend the first two weeks of the season in NEW JERSEY. Yuck. ?

     

    I like that the bye week is on the early side.  Gives the team a chance to address performance issues.  Last year it was late and worthless.

    So I don't know who subscribes to The Athletic, but I stumbled onto this massive draft guide by Dane Brugler he calls "The Beast" because he takes 10 months to put it together after starting in June.

     

    He actually ranks the prospects and has pretty detailed descriptions about each one. Here's what he said about Hockenson (and notice where he ranks him).


    GRADE: 1st Round (#6 overall)

     

    Those who think we could trade back several spots and land Hock are crazy.  He might not even be there at 9.

    I wouldnt mind SImmons as our 2nd round pick. Great value there.

     

    I dont disagree. But what you say is only part of it.  Cant be dogmatic prior to the draft - need to be flexible. The pick depends on how the draft unfolds. For example, if Bosa, Q. Williams or Josh Allen (DE) were available at 9, wouldnt you take em regardless of current needs on Offense? Especially given we have addressed most offense needs in FA.

     

    You are right.  If one of those 3 miraculously were available I would support taking them.

    So the team that fielded one of the worst offenses in NFL history for most of last season should give up premium picks to move up for an interior defensive lineman in a draft that is absolutely stacked with defensive line talent?  People just never learn. 

     

    Absolutely agree.  I’m okay with moving up late in round 1 to get Lawerence or Wilkins but it’s got to be offense at 9.  And subsequent picks after addressing D-Line should be offense.

    IF the Bills were to take an OL with their first pick this year then I would expect it to be Jawaan Taylor over Jonah Williams because of his demeanor, and to me his talent.

     

    Go Bills!

     

    I think Cody Ford or Risner would kill for Josh.   I don’t think Taylor will be an option but if we are considering taking OL I would be tempted to take Ford over Williams.

    I’m trying to warm up to him, but he just looks small and dumpy and rather unathletic for a high draft pick.  He is much lighter than ideal, arms shorter than ideal, a shade shorter than ideal and did not wow anyone with his measureables at the combine.

     

    For sure he played well in college, but will that translate to the NFL against bigger, stronger, faster opponents?

     

    I agree.  I would be temped take Cody Ford over Williams if Taylor was gone.
