  1. I am just mad that I had 3 players in mind that I was hoping would fall to us in the early 3rd. When the first two came off the board, I was hoping Beane would move up to grab Oliver who was my last receiving target that I really wanted...didn't see a chance in hell he would fall to us or get past NE who moved in front of us in that trade with Detroit. We didn't and he didn't even make it past the Jags. Just need to step away, not going to judge this kid in my current mood - he could be all that. As of this point he is a Bill and I wish him much success.
  2. meh. I am kind of cranky now that we sat back and most of the guys I really wanted exited in front of us. This is why GMs get the big bucks because I am a really sore loser, and would leave the war room and come back with a large bottle of whisky, start doing shots, flip off the cameras, put my feet up and call Gruden and tell him to make the rest of my picks for me.
  3. and he leap frogged the Bills because he thought they would take him, then Marrone pooped on our parties.
  4. Oliver to the Jags - really. Now I am just pissed. In the immortal words of some Asian guy who yelled at me once "Marrone, YOU ARE SUCK"
  5. I really liked Hurd, loved the size speed and toughness. Was hoping he would free fall.
  6. I also think that there Anthony Johnson in our own backyard is a solid WR, and Jalen Hurd would probably have gone sooner if he did not have his knee scoped before the combine - I like his upside too. Sky is not falling.
  7. I would like to get one over on ol' Bill if he has him in his sights... everyone is pretty sure NE is going to grab a TE the question is where. And why are they holding out? I think it is because they think Oliver will fall to them here - but we will see.
  8. Well Rosen was adamant that he should have gone before Allen and Darnold. I don't mind his moxy, and he will have 4 times each year to try to prove it.
  9. I could see them trying to out-tank the NFL for 2 years.... process the "Miami" way.
  10. I have peace with it. I like Rosen, but I think defenses can get to him and he is not very mobile. Would rather have Rosen down there than watch the fins tank all the way and pick up that Clemson QB.
  11. DK has some kind of stank on him right now. Butler gets the drops and we all know how we feel about that. Ridley is a box of rocks but a very good receiver. Isabella is a sure handed slot guy IMO
  12. Well workout videos and abs aside, I think it is the medical and team doctor's take on the neck injury - that and he can only run in a straight line (and yes, I am exaggerating before I make the DK folks blow a fuse).
  13. Yeah, I was not too scared off by it... seemed to grow up a bit after his transfer. That Vols program seems to me to have been pretty toxic.
  14. I like Josh and Preston. The kid was wasted in that Colorado offense, but they used him everywhere... outside, inside, on sweeps. Good size and decent hands.
  15. There goes Jenkins...good pick by GB to groom at C to protect Roger's.
  16. Inspired is coming ....Raiders are on the clock swinging for the fence.
  17. Not every player can get a Bama scholarship....jscholarship....just got to find the men amongst the boys. That fits Oliver. He is a great fit for this defense.
  18. How about the other Oliver in this draft. Josh Oliver. 6'5" and change. Runs a 4.6 40, had the largest hands out of the class, graded very well in all the combine drills. Excellent receiver with surprisingly good blocking fundamentals but lacks strength. I believe I read that he had some basketball and snow boarding background and thought those translate well to a TE having good to excellent balance and being able to track and highpoint the ball. The knock on Oliver is he came out if a smaller program at San Jose St. and will need some NFL level coaching up to get stronger and refine his game. He was their program's go-to guy and a man amongst boys which is what you look for in weaker conferences and teams. There are a few more TE prospects that I will be alright with the Bills taking, but that's my TE pick for the Bills. I can't shake the feeling that the Pats will take him before the 4th with one of the 5 picks they have in the 2nd and 3rd round.
