Not on a rookie contract. If you hit on a WR1 in the first, you have 25 to 30 million to spend somewhere else in roster construction. And no one is trading you a ready made WR1.

I think you've got his floor right. I doubt that ceiling.

I like Sweat, but that's about it.

I think if they don't move back from #28, a move up from #60 to secure DT or a S they like is a fair bet to happen.

It's not a give up on Brown. It's a worry that he'll get a huge offer in free agency we can't match. I like all the names you selected for a second round move up. I guess Sweat and Bullard would be my preferences, but they are all good.

I'd give you two green check marks if I could. And Estime had a forty so slow they're still timing it.

Well, I'm not scrutinizing, but on a quick read through, I guess it's a plausible scenario. McCarthy seems to be rising. I'm not sure I agree with it, but QBs usually do. Latu falling that far isn't something I expected, but with the injury history, there could be doubts about him. Sure was glad to see Chop go before #28 to stop us from maybe making a foolish mistake. I wouldn't hate Worthy, but I'd be tempted to try and trade back and pick up Legette later. I'd rather have traded up and gotten Mitchell. 15, 18, and 19, that would be a brutal run if you're hoping for WR to fall. I like Amegadjie in the second, given what's left. I'd certainly take him over Adisa Isaac. OT with an aging big man in Dawkins and Brown looking at a big pay day next year is not a foolish pick. Hope Beane finds a way back into the third. It's a long wait after #60.

I'm not really sure KDiggz does.

So you're saying you want to drug Brandon Beane . . .

You can think whatever you like. The cost to move up would be prohibitive, assuming anyone that high up would be willing to trade down that far. He's likely going top 5, and certainly not much further out than that. It's beyond ridiculously impossible trick shot billiards. I'd love to be able to dream up a semi-plausible scenario and have fun thinking about it. It's just not there. Buying a lottery ticket and treating it as an investment strategy isn't rational, and that probably has a higher chance of happening.

It's been over for awhile. KA needs to trade some assets in the offseason for a two way 3C that can win faceoffs, and a top 6 RW with grit. A veteran backup goalie would be nice, too, because Levi needs more seasoning before he can form a tandem with UPL. I don't think Granato is the answer, but the real problem is Terry Pegula, unfortunately. He needs to step back and let hockey people make decisions. And not be cheap on the Sabres. If he hadn't marshalled the longest playoff drought ineptitude in NHL history, the coffers wouldn't be so bare. There's enough talent and prospects to finally be good, if you make the right moves. It would require some risk and creativity. I think they likely run it back and continue to chase Pegula rainbows. Fella thinks he can build an exciting Euro team that is all offense and speed, and win that way. You can't. I'm glad he bought the Bills and Sabres, and kept them in Buffalo, but what he's done to the Sabres is truly dispiriting.

Damn, I wish that would work.

Yeah, I know. I told a joke and got thumbs up, but I don't blame folks for hoping.

Clearly this is behind his decision not to work out at his Pro day. It's all a clever plan to drop down far enough for Beane to move up and pull the trigger.

Everyone is free to have fun with mock drafts, but if one posts them on a public message board, presumably one is inviting comment. As I strongly disagreed with your particular draft, I felt sufficient umbrage to comment. Naturally, it's all just opinion. Mine is that in a strong WR draft, you made a complete botch of it, and I would not use a second round pick on LB. I don't know why you are down on Bernard. However, if I was going to pick a second round LB, it would be Payton Wilson or no one. Fortunately, from my perspective, there's virtually no chance the draft will play out anywhere close to the scenario you have painted.

Yes, I'm more interested in where we might be going in the draft for S at this point. At DL, I am hoping for Austin Johnson. I think he'd be a good signing, and perhaps plausible. But so far as Warriorspikes51's enthusiasms, he's rather like Toad in The Wind and the Willows. You just have to let them run their course. Trying to contain them is like trying to eradicate Kudzu in Georgia.

I don't know why you always have to double down. It's some kind of compulsion. I'd love to get this guy. You're not getting him and Calais Campbell. It was Blackmon or Edwards. It's not going to be Simmons. The S upgrade, if it comes, will be in the draft. (They'll definitely draft one, don't know how early.)

You felt compelled to pass on WR in the first, then took a LB in the second, and chose Wilson as your top WR? (He's a bust waiting to happen.) You take 2 LBs? Sorry, you're fired.

He's probably closer to early mid-round. I like him.

I can't explain it, but I think OL should be moved up to tier 2. Not sure they will pay Brown; Dawkins is still solid, but not young. And Oline has some depth this draft. More depth at Oline helps keep the wall in front of Josh stout.

Smith is the only one with a shot, imo. I'm a big fan of both Bullard and Smith. Don't really like the other two, to be honest. I like Cole Bishop, as well, but he's going day 2.

Ah, I'm so used to Warriorspikes51 answering Buffalofanforever19, that I hallucinated this response ascribed to the other fella. Only, of course, it was so out of character, I should have known. I thought the apocalypse might be happening, but false alarm.

This is true of everyone, some of us just have more experience at it. That's what we need. Hope he signs with us.

If you get Josh Allen better WR talent, he'll win more games.
