For the Love of Little Pink Penquins, What the ***** is our plan at OG?
In conjunction with Rodger Saffold and Ryan Bates who are clearly Starters - David Quessenberry is like Daryl Williams in that he can play both positions. Greg Mancz started 4 games last season and can play Guard.
Ike Boettger started 10 games for us last season and there's been advances in Achilles rehab that has paid dividends with players, Cam Akers returning to the Rams in 5 months just last season.
And I believe they'd like to see if Aaron Kromer can bring something extra out of Cody Ford, given the large investment we paid, trading up at the top of Round 2 in 2019.
That's 6 different players who strictly play Guard or can play Inside. I don't think adding UDFA's at Guard changes anything.

Really surprised they did not get an IOL.
1 really late OT pick.
Quessenberry can run block at RT.
Ford had a vote of confidence by Beane last night. Foolish IMO
Mancz has been a good UDFA story as a backup C but is hanging on
Boettger is coming off of an Achilles and will probably not be able to play this year
Quessenberry has played Guard in his career and can swing inside if need be. Greg Mancz can play both Center and Guard and started 4 games last season. There's been advances in Achilles rehabilitation in the last couple years that we've seen pay dividends in recent history with Cam Akers returning in 5 months just last season. We've brought in a much better O-Line coach than Cody Ford has ever had in Aaron Kromer. With the investment they paid in Ford, they'll likely like to see if Kromer can get more out of him. We're likely only going to keep 4 Guards and our Starting Guards are set for this season with the investments we put into Saffold and Bates.

Just replace Hodgins with Kyle Phillips. It's not like he's ever going to see the field.
Hodgins was cut after Training Camp and was a Practice Squad player all year. If he's back this year, it would be in the same role.
It would be a replacement for Marquez Stevenson. I'd love to see us double up and take Bo Melton for his 4.34 speed. Have him battle Stevenson and I'd bet he'd win.

It doesn't matter what grade YOU had on him. They had a 3rd Round Grade on him. We cut AJ Klein and have Tyrel Dodson as the next guy on the LB depth chart after Edmunds and Milano. Let's see how they use him and how he plays before we sh-t all over the pick.

Okay updating again given that two of my top 5 have just gone....
1. Cam Thomas, DE, San Diego State
2. Malik Willis, QB, Liberty
3. Jalen Tolbert, WR, South Alabama
4. Matt Corral, QB, Ole Miss
5. Perrion Winfrey, DT, Oklahoma
6. David Bell, WR, Purdue
7. Dylan Parham, IOL, Memphis
8. Daniel Faalele, OT, Minnesota
9. Darian Kinnard, IOL, Kentucky
10. Nick Cross, S, Maryland
David Bell? Our core needs speed and he ran a 4.69 at his Pro Day. No thanks.

That's the RB I wanted. Would have preferred him with our 3rd but I won't complain. Best pass catching back in the draft.
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.

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.

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.
