Man, Pittsburgh looks stupid for drafting Kenny Pickett at 20. Could have had Malik Willis at 52 and more likely than not, could have drafted Kenny Pickett here as well.

Bill said "hold my beer" to people giving him flack for reaching for Cole Strange by trading up for Tyquan Thornton 😂

In the 3rd yes. But I prefer White.
With Hall and Walker going by 41, I would be shocked to see Cook available at 89.

Why? I’d trust the NFL scouts over any website big board
Of course what teams and scouts think of players and their fits with teams is ultimately what matters most. But it's still surprising to see when guys go a lot earlier than expected over guys who weren't expected to be on the board at this point.
-
Wan'Dale Robinson and John Metchie III over George Pickens and Skyy Moore? That's really surprising to me.

Oh man. Of course it had to be the Jets 😂

If OL is truly the problem, then we need to be putting more draft capital there. It’s basically been avoided and when we do, they are busts (Ford). Brown is the only other pick there that has shown promise. All we do is dedicate most of the draft capital towards defense and yet we still have issues stopping the run or stopping KC long enough to win. Hopefully Kaiir helps with that, but it’s time to go offense now.
We signed a Pro Bowl Guard, matched an offer sheet to retain the Guard that elevated our O-Line when we inserted him in, signed the Right Tackle of the Titans who started all 17 games for them last season (and can also play Guard), retained another Guard who started 10 games for us last season, signed a Center (who can also play Guard) who started in 5 games for the Dolphins last season, and vastly improved our O-Line coach.
They've put in a lot of work on the O-Line this offseason. If Bernhard Raimann is there and they feel he could be an upgrade over Spencer Brown, okay. Otherwise I'm not interested in going O-Line Round 2 this season.

It’s over.
Enjoy your consigliere prize corner cuz we got the best one. No way your guy can stop our new receiver and your old guy has a busted knee. Then we got a guy to smack that smug look of your surfer quarterback’s face. You even lost your backup to the Steelers so what is youse gonna do in the 2nd quarter when Allen is in the tent or ambulance? We play youse twice so that’s like a double tap. Bye bye.
P.S. J-e-t-s J-E-t-s J-E-T-s J-E-T-S
You had an AWESOME Draft. Not gonna front on that. But the Jets have a LOOONNGGG way to go and Rookies aren't guaranteed to be superstars immediately. I'd pump the brakes a bit.

I agree he will be here this year; doesn't mean we have to "let it go."
He's not beyond criticism simply b/c the organization has decided to double down on the mistake of drafting him. That's a common front office move.
"Let it go" as in continuing to make posts about us trading him this offseason. It's not happening.

Which one was that? Interesting
The DT he played with at Virginia Tech? Tim Settle.

My dream picks would be
WR Alec Pierce in the 2nd and James RB James Cook in the 3rd.
That would be some serious speed.
34 minutes ago, Doc Brown said:Shoot that combination into my veins. Love Pierce and Cook gives you that pass catching RB they covet.
I am in lockstep with you both. While I like the idea of adding Breece Hall or Kenneth Walker III to the team if either are on the clock at 57 - I feel we'd be really shorting ourselves waiting for WR in Round 3. Meanwhile, I love Cook's tape, especially as a Pass Catcher.
And there's only 2 WR's I like for the Bills more than Alec Pierce (Skyy Moore and Christian Watson) and they'll both be gone (as will George Pickens, but he lacks the speed I think we're looking for).
We'd be far better off going WR in Round 2 and RB in Round 3 instead of the other way around.

I don’t disagree with anything you said, but I do not see the bills retaining Edmunds after the season. To be it is about the cap more than anything. Trying to look beyond this season.We don't know that. All we know is that they haven't extended him yet and want to see how he performs this season in a Contract year. Could we hedge our bets a bit by taking a LB in Round 2? Yes. But that will be in conjunction with Tremaine, not as a replacement.

Trade up and draft Nakobe Dean from Georgia. Presto LB of the future. Once that deal is secure…
Find a trade partner for Tremaine Edmunds (mid second rounder) hopefully an NFC team, and use the pick for Breece Hall.
i don’t have positional needs and charts in front of me but this would help the cap this year and years moving forward as well as solidify the backfield.
Tremaine Edmunds isn't going to be traded. Regardless of how you feel of his play (which isn't as bad as some of you posters make it seem), he's the signal caller of the #1 Defense in the league for years running. We're not going to disrupt the flow of this Defense in this important season by hoping that a 2nd Round pick is going to not only cause us to miss a step in his Rookie season, but make it perform better.
They vastly improved the Defensive Line in front of him. They brought in the DT he played with in College. This wasn't just a coincidence. They want to see if it'll pay dividends for Tremaine. He's going to get this season.
It's time to let it go.

None of Epenesa, Ford or Moss is going to move us up much at all in the 2nd.
That scuttlebutt is most likely coming from Bills fandom.
Picks in rounds 6 - 7? Yeah, that's his M.O. Very possible. Mid-round picks for next year? I'd bet that doesn't happen.
I like your last two paragraphs.
No, it came from a Sirius XM Analyst - https://heavy.com/sports/buffalo-bills/draft-picks-2022-cut-veterans/
Epenesa was a 2nd Round Pick, Ford was a high 2nd Round Pick, and Moss was a 3rd Round Pick. All are young. High Draft Picks who are young are desirable in trades as teams may have liked them coming out of College over the past few years and could feel that they can get more out of them in their system and a change in scenery.
Obviously you're not going to get the same return in where you picked them. But you could get a value somewhere between 2 rounds later or so.
If you combine one (or more) of them with 57 and some later round picks - I think you'd be surprised at where you could get. Especially at some of the lower costs of trade ups that occured in Round 1. And I don't think it's crazy to think mid round picks the following year could be in play also.

So happy to see we didn't do this in the first.
In the 2nd, it would make a ton more sense.
Seems unlikely they'll trade up again when they're already down a 4th. They aren't going to trade away that 3rd now.
No, I don't see them moving their 3rd. But there was some scuttlebutt that they may be interested in moving veterans to move up. You could package someone like Epenesa, Ford, or Moss. Could also trade mid round picks from next year. And picks in Rounds 5-7.
Though I know no one on this thread wants to hear it, I think they'd be more likely to do it for a guy like Christian Watson or Skyy Moore if they were going to move up again.
I think if Hall or Walker is there at 57, I could see them doing it. But I'd think James Cook or Rachaad White in the 3rd is more likely at this point.
-
I said it repeatedly in this thread. No RB would be selected in Round 1. Breece Hall was not the prospect that Najee Harris or Travis Etienne were coming out. Would not shock me in the least if he were still on the board at 57.

Kaiir Elam was NOT a reach.
Cole Strange, THAT was a reach.

Honestly I won't be at all surprised if they sign a vet CB and/or double down in the draft for a DB (versatile safety perhaps).
Wouldn't surprise me either. My stance is that none of these guys left over are someone you count on as anything more than spot duty at this point. I was referring to fans who were saying we just sign Joe Haden or Xavier Rhodes and we were good to go without having to Draft anyone.

"Beane doesn't value CB2 and won't spend a 1st"
"The plan is still to sign a veteran CB, we may not even draft one at all"

We traded up for him, 1 pick away and Booth and Gordon on the board. LOL. That happened..
and now the jets gets Johnson. Jets killed it. Luckily we have 17
I'd have assumed you'd have been thrilled because his arms aren't under 30". He was the guy they liked. He has the speed neither has. A lot of people *ahem* said something similar when we drafted Josh Allen. Reports are Dallas liked Elam. Even if they weren't going to take him, if he was their guy above all others, why risk the possibility of someone possibly trading in front of us in Dallas' slot to take him with teams knowing we needed CB? Relax.

I'm just thrilled Beane got a CB he wanted in Round 1. I spent the whole Draft process being told CB in Round 1 wasn't necessary and I felt like I was taking crazy pills listening to it.

Rd 2, Pick 63 (31): RB James Cook, Georgia
in The Stadium Wall
Posted
When Walker went 41, the idea of Cook lasting until 89, which was a very iffy proposition to begin with, went way out the window. Moving down twice to pick up picks to allow us to move around on Day 3 and grabbing him just shy of Round 3 was so smart. I love everything about the pick.
