They won't be Drafting a RB that high. They may take a guy in the 6th or 7th that will end up cut with a Practice Squad ceiling if he looks good. But we don't carry more than 3 Tailbacks. And none of James Cook, Ray Davis, or Ty Johnson are going anywhere. Cook's replacement will come in next year's Draft, if he isn't re-signed.

Read the affadavit. It's public knowledge "what's going on here". In a world where most investigations stemming from an allegation go nowhere because SA is difficult to build a case around without substantial evidence - he was officially charged with the felony after a quick investigation bc of the mountain of stuff they had. This isn't an allegation. This is someone criminally charged with SA. With damning text messages (some done while the police watched), turned down NDA payoffs, and a rape kit that had the Hospital calling the police and meeting her there. He will not be Drafted by the Buffalo Bills and likely won't be Drafted at all.

You had Deion saying to the press months before the Draft that there were teams "I won't let my son play for". Then he goes to the Combine, where an anonymous NFL Head Coach said "it was the worst combine interview i've ever been in, in my life". Combine that with him being a pocket passer in a league where that's antiquated and one with a pretty unimpressive arm on top of it - and i'm honestly not surprised he's fallen this far.

I started the thread and wondered how long it would take until I saw the word "motor". 8 posts.

There goes Will Johnson. If the rumors of a degenerative knee were real, that seems high. If it isn't, that's really low.

56, 62, and 109 = 212 pts. 41, 72, and 240 = 210 pts. So a fairly even trade. It's ever so slightly titlted to the Bears. https://www.drafttek.com/NFL-Trade-Value-Chart-Rich-Hill.asp

We must have given up multiple Day 3's as 56 and 109 shouldn't get us that high.

We're on the clock! Donovan?!

Haha Slough over Sanders.

The highest 56 and 109 (our next highest pick that isn't 62) is going to get us is 46. So I wouldn't expect a move up before then, if at all.

Amos won't be there when we pick and Johnson is off of a lot of Draft boards for a degenerative knee.

Yeah, I was pretty upset when we passed him. I was under the assumption he was coming off an injury that would still have him ready to play by Week 1. But then it came out his injury isn't the main issue - it's that he has a degenerative knee issue. And if that's the case, I totally understand passing on him.

Considering Khalil Shakir runs 4.43 and Curtis Samuel ran a 4.31 (probably has declined a bit due to age, but probably still in the range of 4.41) and the feeling is we don't have someone that's going to win with speed - I don't think 4.41 really meets the mark of a "Speed WR". Again, not slow. But not exactly a speed demon.

You're essentially straight up trading James Cook for Jaydon Blue. Maybe not even a straight up trade as it's quite possible Blue goes before the pick you would get for Cook. And asking Blue to be what Cook was for us last season out of the gate is a big ask. I fail to see the logic. Ride Cook out, Draft his replacement next season, and get a comp pick for him in 2027 - that will most likely be more than what you'd get in trade for him this season. Don't worry, with the way you fall in love with prospects and think they're all sure things, there will be a RB in next years Draft that you like as much as Blue and likely even more so.

He's a 4.41 guy. That's definitely not slow. But that's not exactly someone you're Drafting to add a Speed element to your WR core either.
