  1. I think everyone looking for a bit 1 tech is in for a disappointment. Like to see a speed WR and then BPA.
  2. I don't get the critiques that a mid-round guy can't just be big, fast and have a limited route tree. We've drafted rotational DTs in the third round for pete's sake. If a 6'5" receiver who can run 4.3 just runs flies and posts and we take him in the 4th, I'm damn good with that. You can teach route running; you can't teach those measurables. And even if the route running never improves, stretching the D is still valuable.
  3. Get a speed WR, preferably one with size, and I'm happy with this draft.
  4. No, no, he killed this guy and wears his face as a mask.
  5. Also remember Sanders is still only 21 years old and 6'4". He can still add mass to his frame.
  6. With the 4 big picks we moved up 15 in the second and moved down only 10 to the top of the third. And we guaranteed getting the player Beane wants. That's fair. If you don't like the pick that's a separate issue.
  7. As per @GunnerBill's thought that we did NOT LOSE 2 seconds... Look at it this way: 1. We moved up 15 spots from 56 to 41 2. We moved down 10 spots from 62 to 72. We lost one of our two fourths and got pick 240. That's not egregious at all to go up 15 spots. We only move down 10 with our second 2nd-rounder.
  8. I'm aligned with you except for 2026: I think/hope they let him walk, get a comp, and draft a low-cost replacement. I think Cook is very good but far from irreplaceable, and his $12 to $15 million can be better spent elsewhere when you're paying a franchise quarterback. In a world with no cap, I'd say pay him what he wants, but paying one position more means paying another less, and I don't think RBS are that hard to replace.
  9. It just aggregates content that's out there. I highly doubt AI is forming its own opinions on whom the Bills should pick. I've seen results from AI that are impressive (at times) and also flat-out incorrect. It's a tool, and often a tool that should be flushed.
  10. Not thrilled but I suppose it's relatively cheap insurance. I don't expect Tre to start if we draft a CB in the first couple rounds (which I expect) but if he's making $2 million before hitting incentives it's not a big deal.
  11. Turning 32 in August, coming off a torn Achilles. No thanks. \ We might as well call Tre White if we want old guys with a torn Achilles.
  12. Using all three of our top picks on Epenesa-level athletes.
  13. Apologies if posted, but I have not seen this after a search and I think it will please some, including myself: "Per source, the Bills have held a private workout and multiple Zooms with Tennessee WR Dont’e Thornton," Talbot says. "He’s had great conversations with the team. The Volunteers WR has blazing speed (4.3) and elite size (6’5”). He’s a true downfield threat (21.9 YPC)." https://www.sportingnews.com/ca/nfl/buffalo-bills/news/report-bills-very-interested-star-receiver-incredible-speed-donte-thornton-nfl-draft/059a5a5a2d3d60dfc3e19584
  14. Anything's a possibility but it all hinges on how the draft plays out and Beane's board. You don't necessarily go into a draft saying, "We need four second-rounders," because you don't know who will be there and who will be gone when the Bills' first-round pick comes up. It's a possibility later on, not a must-do right now.
  15. I'd love the Bills to take a chance on mid-round size/speed guy who is still developing. Horton just gobbles up the turf with those long strides. Looks like a better route runner than Dont'e Thornton who is even bigger and faster and a good blocker but doesn't seem to have much of a route tree — yet. I'd love to take a chance on either guy. We burned a 3rd round pick last year on a backup DT; take a chance on a WR with size and speed this year.
