Wouldn’t be shocked if she got a NDA and a few million to keep her happy and quiet.

We’re not far behind them if at all. Pass rush is still our biggest issue vs these teams in the playoffs. I still want to see a veteran pass rusher added, there are many out there. I don’t know what the plan is to replace Edmunds. That’s the biggest hole from last year to this year. I feel like our team is pretty equal overall to last years team right now. If they’re serious about loading up for Super Bowl run we’ll see aggressive moves at WR and pass rusher before the season starts.

They need to replace Beasley, going on year 2 trying. They also need to improve RT and LG. Im good with our RBs.

2019 had Marquis Brown and N’Keal Harry go in the late 1st. Deebo, AJ Brown, Dk, in the 2nd. Dionte Johnson, Terry McClurin in the 3rd. Hunter Renfrow in the 5th. Teams just missed out on WR talent. No one got pushed down do to talent at the top. Patriots would love a do over. In 2020 the Bills felt Gabe Davis was much higher rated but got pushed down do to the amount of highly graded WRs.

So you’re saying because of past draft failures teams lowered their grades on WR’s? Ive just never heard of that.

Per Beane he’s not expecting our pick at 27 to start year one. I’m not a Hyatt fan but it sets up the Bills to have WR covered in future seasons.

No. Teams didn’t pass on WRs because of previous draft failures. Doesn’t even make sense. It was a weak draft class prospect wise. If Jamaar Chase was in the 2019 draft he’d go top 10.

I get what you’re saying but I don’t think that’s how it works. Teams grade players and the draft plays out based on that. It was considered weak draft leading up to the draft. With that said who is the DK Metcalf of this draft? Unreal physical talent but lacking production or good film?

Good names. I’m not very high on Lazard and Hardman. Decent players, no different than our guys we have now. WR1 Wilson vs Diggs? Diggs is better. Davis is better depth but he’s getting trader released. RB? Eh. ACL injury to Hall evens this out. Maybe even puts Bills ahead.

Sure but he had a long way down to become a liability. I see a few years left in the tank.

I don’t see it happening unless he gets injured. At worst he’s a game manager and throws 20-30TDs with less than 10 INt’s. Jets are contenders next year.

No, if he plays 65% next year it’s a 2024 1st. So basically it’s a 2024 1st. Basically: 2nd 6th 2024 1st

The last “weak” WR draft was the 2019 draft. A lot of great WRs were drafted that year. Ive considered this a weak class but that’s based on the top of the 1st round. I don’t see a true WR1 prospect but there will be WR1’s drafted in this draft.

I just bought a Jordan Addison Bills jersey.

Looks like she got the dog.

Slot WRs don’t go particularly high, the top 3 WRs are slot WRs. Bills need slot WR. Bills will have to think about a trade up around 20, that’s when we start to see WRs going. If none are gone by 20 do you stay put? If 1 is gone by 20 it’s going to be decision time.

It’s possible but not likely. Straight from the horses mouth:

He’s everything they want in a player. Consistency issues sure, but Knox had them as well. Knox is everything they want in a player. We’ll see a similar contract.

There’s never 27 1st round grades but magically whoever the Bills draft will be a 1st rounder on their board I’m sure. Wink wink. AJ Epenesa was a 1st round grade Beane said. I don’t believe him, but that’s what he said. I’ve been wondering about slot WR value. That’s what the Bills want and need. But value wise those guys are typically mid round picks. Times are changing though with most teams running 11 personnel. This draft the top 3 WRs are slot guys.

Welcome to the draft process. Your first time?

I never said this. For one Im not an insider. It was Sal that said he believes they would want Drew Sanders over Jack Campbell. I then posted Drew Sanders is our guy in the “rumors” thread.

I personally think if they can’t get JSN, Flowers, or Addison they trade for Hopkins. Maybe they think Downs can have instant impact at slot WR also?

I didn’t say Sanders at 27. Sanders or Simpson round 2. DT comes into play at 27 if Oliver is moved and Hopkins is brought in.

If we look at Gabe as a WR2/3 he’s perfect. Watching WR contracts rise I have no issue with him getting something in the neighborhood of Alan Lazard. Get it done and look to upgrade around him. $12 million isn’t bad for a WR2/3. We can comfortably have a Diggs/Hopkins combo for 1-2 years also if they choose.

Pick 27 is a 2nd round graded player. I would definitely be looking to trade down but if their guy is there and they fear he goes in the next few picks they will draft him.
