Ethan in Cleveland

Agreed! Could go to Denver here but my guess is Denver trades out for someone that wants Bowers here

Honest question how can a LT not play RT? I see it the other way but makes no sense a LT can't play on the right side.

Absolutely stunningly stupid pick. But honestly the contract for Cousins is an even worse decision. Probably the worst FA signing all year. Nice job Atlanta. They are screwed

Such a waste of time. They should be forced to open the show with the first pick announcement.

Allen hasn't restructured yet and White comes off the books in 5 weeks

OMG I actually thought this on the car ride home from work...please dear god no.....

I'm not paying for ESPN+ Anyone know who Kiper mocked for Bills?

Can't stand McAfee. He ruined College GameDay. He is the white redneck version of Stepen A Smith. Add the fact he pays Rodgers to spout out his bullshat and he is unwatchable.

Our best hope for today is there is a run on OT, a reach or two on QBs, and defensive needy teams like Falcons stay true and draft defense. That pushes WR talent down and Beane can get a guy at 28. He probably will panic and jump up 8 spots or so and get Thomas or Worthy. That's his MO.

Good let some team make a mistake on him. If he was that elite Harbaugh would have thrown the ball more. I'm going to guess many of those third down throws were manageable distances where there was still a threat of the run. That doesn't happen in the NFL. Anything longer than 3rd and 2 in the NFL and teams are throwing and the defense knows you are throwing it.

https://www.nfl.com/news/charles-davis-2024-nfl-mock-draft-3-0-pats-select-j-j-mccarthy-at-no-3-vikings-*****-drake-maye Davis has Nix and Penix going 12 and 13. He has Chargers taking OT but Giants passing on a QB(see what I did there) and taking Nabors. I still see Nix and Penix going to these two teams but not at 12 and 13

Arghhh I need to pick my son up at the airport probably right around mid first round, so I will be on TBD getting all the real analysis!

Arizona would be crazy not to trade down and let someone overpay for McCarthy. They would get a very valuable asset in return and still get a top WR. Same may gor for Chargers. If they are ok with an OT they can drop a few spots say a swap with the Bears. Bears get a WR to go with Williams and Chargers still get an OT. So much intrigue with all these QBs at the top. And I think at least one team will reach for another QB in the first round.

If Nabors is still on the board at 12 or 13 I think this would be the move to make. It can happen if a few things occur. All 4 QBs are taken by pick 11 with the Giants beating out Minnesota for McCarthy. Then Bowers is a top 10 pick by Jets and Chargers take OT instead of WR. Titans will go OT or CB. This leaves the Bears with the choice of Nabors or Odunze. Minnesota already has two good WRs and probably goes OL or DB. Lots of assumptions there but all are reasonable. My biggest concern is the Chargers and what Harbaugh will do. I think he gets an OT to protect Herbert In a deep WR draft and gets a WR in round two. Both Denver and Raiders need a QB but both Nix and Penix should be still available at 28. Nobody else in between really needs a QB. Maybe Pittsburgh but don't see them taking a QB. Denver and Raiders are both in need of roster overhaul and needs picks. #28, # 60 and next years #1 should be enough to get to 12 or 13. This leaves two seconds for next year. Flame away...

I can see and defend anything from a crazy blockbuster trade, to staying at 28, or trading back. There are pros/cons to each of these scenarios. I'd be ok if he gave up a ton for Nabors, a half ton for Thomas, stood pat and took Worthy, or traded back and took two WR in round 2.

Bills have 49 guys under contract now. 48 really when you consider they have two punters on the team. They lost starters at safety x 2, wr x2, edge, and center. Every other starter returned and they get Milano back from injury. They already filled one of the WR spots and 1 safety spot in FA. They filled Center and 1 safety spot internally. They signed a few special teams level guys and some guys like Collins that will be long shots to make the final 53. They absolutely need a starter at WR. They need an edge that will play significant snaps and hopefully will be better than AJE. They need a backup RB, a rotational DT, and a safety #3. I don't care much about the position but they also need a punter returner. They probably will add another WR or a CB that has some return ability late in the draft. Also they will have a little more FA money after June 1st for a couple more depth guys.

Happens all the time to me. Saw 2 guys wearing Bills hats and Yankees jerseys at the Guardians game last week. Saw two in London, two in Milan, and even a guy wearing a Josh Allen jersey in San Marino ( an independent city state inside of Italy - not Dan Marino's house). Go Bills and fist pump is usually all I do

Did Jets also throw in a couple of Staten Island Ferry tickets as well???

Agree. Much rather draft edge in round 2. My distaste for AJE is well documented. I think the corpse of Von will rise and have 9 sacks this year. AJE will have 3 in the first 6 weeks and then disappear again.

Oh I see what you mean now. Agree. No WR even the top 3 guys would match what Diggs produced. My thought is you get a guy or two and hope the offense is more diverse with Kincaid, Cook, Knox, and Samuel getting lots of opportunities. Are you advocating trading draft pick for a veteran? FYI I don't believe anything Beane says. The only truthful statement he made was the Bills are worse without Diggs. There is no way he believes the WR group is ok. Honestly if he drafted 3 WR it would be less shocking than if he takes an edge in round 1.

3 of the top 6 rookie pass catchers from 2023 were taken after the first round. One of the six was a TE. So only 2 of top six were first round and both were taken after pick 20. Diggs as you know was a 4th round pick. After the top 3 guys in this draft, the next ten probably have a good a chance as any to succeed.

Agree this mock is as bad as the mock and real drafts of Mike Mayock.

I have no issue with them drafting an edge if all the WR with a first round grade are gone, but Kneeland wasn't even first team in the MAC. No freaking way. If they don't get a star WR in the first round, then I would prefer they go volume in the second and take two WRs.

Nabers at 13 is worth giving up 2025 #1

OMG I would love to see the board explode if this went down. https://www.nfl.com/news/seven-round-2024-nfl-mock-draft-round-4 Small school edge in round 1 who had 4.5 sacks in the MAC, while Cinci and KC both add WRs, Miami adds an OT, and Colts add a generational TE. Blocking WR and Robert Woods clone in round 2 and passing on Franklin Then DT and S No trades up or down Standing pat and taking another smurf blocking WR and 3 defenders with the top four picks.... oh this place would melt down
