We're pruning down to our Final Four... if you have voted for a player no longer on the poll please re-vote.

Tuimoloau is going to need some development, he's certainly more physically gifted than Boogie, but I'm wondering if the Bills aren't thinking in terms of a Jordan Burch or Saivion Jones perhaps making it to 109 or at least to an area where they can pop up a few slots rather than getting the power DE here. At this point all of these prospects have questions to them and an ability to bust or hit.

I think it comes down to, there's an awful lot of Edge and DT left on the board. The Bills are up again in just 6 picks, and unless you're excluding him for the Hyde-like 4.55 40-yard time, Watts is a hand-in-glove fit for the ball-hawking deep-half safety the Bills haven't had on the roster since Hyde left. If the Bills weren't picking again till 109 I might think of doing something different but on this board I think I gotta draft Watts here and hope my favorite defensive lineman (and I do have one) is there at 62. This one is a really tough call and I'm still noodling... there's four or five guys I'd be pleased with on that list. The Epenesa type or the Basham type?

Had to make the cut at 15 but I'll mention them in the OP to see if there's a groundswell to get them in

If I didn't botch it, poll is live

For this poll, we tried to focus on players and positions that the Bills are most likely to draft at this slot, from a consensus of draft rankings and Mock Draft ADPs. Poll will close at 8pm on 4/5/25. The eligible players are based upon those who were not already selected in the TSW 1.0 Mock draft linked below: We went heavy on DL and EDGE because frankly there's a lot of them clustered around this draft position, and both are among the Bills top needs. Considered, but not making the final cut for the poll: DT: Deone Walker Kentucky EDGE: Kyle Kennard South Carolina Josaiah Stewart Michigan Jordan Burch Oregon CB: Darien Porter Iowa State WR: Tre Harris Ole Miss Jalen Royals Utah State Savion Williams TCU RB: Cam Skattebo Arizona State Kaleb Johnson Iowa TE: Elijah Arroyo Miami Mason Taylor LSU OT: Ozzy Trapilo BC G/C: Jared Wilson Georgia If there are any oversights let me know! If a write-in is gaining momentum, we can add to the poll.

Nominally it's beyond my pay grade but I think I can try to use your first one as a template. When's the expiry supposed to be?

@Virgil High-rated prospects on the board: DT: Shemar Turner Texas A&M Omar Norman-Lott Tennessee CJ West Indiana Joshua Farmer FSU EDGE: Bradyn Swinson LSU JT Tuimoloau Ohio State Jack Sawyer Ohio State Jared Ivey Mississippi Kyle Kennard South Carolina Josaiah Stewart Michigan Jordan Burch Oregon LB: Demetrius Knight South Carolina S: Xavier Watts Notre Dame CB: Darien Porter Iowa State WR: Elic Ayomanor Stanford Jack Bech TCU RB: Quinshon Judkins Ohio State Dylan Sampson Tennessee Cam Skattebo Arizona State Kaleb Johnson Iowa TE: Elijah Arroyo Miami Mason Taylor LSU OT: Marcus Mbow Purdue Ozzy Trapilo BC G/C: Jared Wilson Georgia

Hairston was selected #36 by @TPS / the Jaguars. Can you try that again?

Some of these media drafts are so far out of touch that @Best Williams Available is actually a better strategy...

I think @GunnerBill said something about being on a plane today? It's been 3 hours, so based on Chicago's team needs and his posts, I think I have an idea who he might target with this pick. In lieu of Gunner, I think he'd pick: Nic Scourton EDGE Texas A&M Chicago had a huge void at running back that was filled by Ashton Jeanty at pick #10. But, both OL and DL need some serious help. The OL depth has been pretty well plundered, I have Donovan Jackson top of board here and am not convinced he's a value pick here. Montez Sweat is the splash signing for Chicago so while EDGE isn't the greatest need, Odeyingbo is pencilled as the opposite starter. But surely, Scourton is sticking way up on the board at this pick, and we know Gunner likes the player, just a matter if he feels it's a fit in Chicago - but checking with the Chicago media, I see some mocking this player at this spot, so it sure seems like a fit.

They coulda took Dejean last year, but were chasing the WR.

I got a good idea on reasoning... Jags team needs were listed as "CB, DT, CB"

But for as much as the WR room sucked and they all underperformed... the Bills sure scored a bunch of points didn't they? If Beane is going WR before Day 3 this year he'd better have a damn good idea that the guy has #1 upside and is decently likely to achieve it. Coleman was the swing taken early and whether you think that's the guy that the swing should have been taken on, that book isn't written yet. Using the top pick on the same position again? Not a fan.
