Players the Bills have met with at Combine
gonzo1105 replied to gonzo1105's topic in The Stadium Wall
I think Ward has always been the clear # 1 QB in this class and people are just catching up. Missing out on Carter and/or Hunter would hurt but neither of these guys are elite can’t miss prospects like a Myles Garrett coming out. Plus the Titans have so many need that them dropping to 6 or 7 and selecting a guy won’t hurt in this draft as much as long as they get the proper draft capital in this and next years draft. This will allow them to either trade up for the QB they want next year or if they are still # 1 pick bad allow them to build around a guy like Arch Manning It’s really Carter, Hunter, Graham and then a mass of similarly graded guys behind them. -
NFL Combine Thread: 1 (PK, DL & LB's)

He does lack bend on tape. That’s why his testing makes him a polarizing guy. Is he the athlete on tape or the guy you saw at the combine. Either way he helped himself big time where scouts will be going back to watch more on him -

Yea I’ll be surprised if Dart goes before Sanders. Could I see Sanders slipping sure but it’s also misinformation time and can’t believe everything you hear with a ton of needy QB teams down the board -
I have been beating the drum for Paulson Adebo and Jason Pinnock as secondary additions. Don’t think we pursue any of those options at WR. I think guys like Atwell, Nick Westbrook Ikinhe are possibilities

I agree I think their goal is to make the D line like their o line has become. The Bills had a finesse Oline and they transitioned to a physical front. I see them doing the same here on defense. Whether that means Grant, bigger ends , a trade who knows but I do suspect that to be true particularly for DLine -

I had Membou to the Jets at 7 in version 1 and agree with you there just haven’t heard a lot about the Jets and OL so far so it seems they want to go in another direction to this point -
Jets planning to either trade or release Devante Adams
gonzo1105 replied to UKBillFan's topic in The Stadium Wall
It’s not always about getting the best of everything you can get. The Bills only have so many valuable assets to give. Sure they can grab Metcalf and give up a pick or two and that’d be great but that also probably takes them out of the DE trade market while Adams will come free from an asset standpoint besides salary -

Im picturing more the Bears playing Membou at Guard. They need help all over and he is the best one in my opinion in general even with Campbell going higher. So they’re taking BPA OL and making it work. Obviously you disagree with Banks which I disagree with lol. I sort of agree on Will Johnson and picks 5-9 were really tough for me outside of the Raiders. That’s a real area where I can see some surprises coming. I just slotted a safe guy there for now until version 3. I also sort of agree on Burden but he’s a first rounder and I was trying to find a spot for him and didn’t want to put him in round 2. I think Tet is going between 12-19 until he runs. I guess I’m curious who specifically we are talking about -

Version 2.0 (After Combine Mock)......I think most Bills fans will be very happy with this version! 1. Tennessee Titans- Abdul Carter DE Penn State - I really still don't know what they are going to do with this pick as I think they will most likely take Carter, draft Ward, or trade out of this pick but right now Carter is the best player in the draft and new general managers tend to play it safe in their first pick with a new team and Carter is about as safe as it comes. He's a dynamic player that will be an instant impact for the Titans next to Jeffrey Simmons. 2. Cleveland Browns- Cam Ward QB Miami - The best Quarterback in the draft goes in the 2nd spot. Yes they still owe a ton of money to Watson but they have to go in a different directions at this point and just bite the bullet. Ward has a lot of really good traits that can make him a good NFL QB and has played for 3 different programs in 3 years showing he is flexible and can adapt to many different systems and coordinators. 3. New York Giants- Travis Hunter CB/WR Colorado - Hunter is right up there with Carter as the best player in the draft and the Giants kill 2 birds with one stone. They need a lockdown corner on defense and they need a dynamic playmaker with Nabers on offense. If they can find the right QB, the Giants would be much improved on offense and Hunter should greatly help them on the defensive side of the ball. 4. New England Patriots- Mason Graham DT Michigan - I think the Patriots would much prefer to get either Carter or Hunter in this position but both are gone. This could be a spot where you could see a trade but with no trades in this mock draft, the Patriots take the Graham who fits Mike Vrabel and the new regime very well. They need to help their offense but Graham is too good to pass up and all offensive players are a reach at this point. 5. Jacksonville Jaguars- Will Campbell OT LSU - The Jaguars could go a couple of different directions here as well. I think Campbell is a reach here but he is a very safe pick for a brand new general manager making his first selection. I am not as high on Campbell as others are but it appears he will most likely be the # 1 OL off the board at this point. This could be another pick that you could see movement on if the early portion of the draft plays out this way. I think they would also consider Will Johnson and Jahdae Barron here. 6. Las Vegas Raiders- Shedeur Sanders QB Colorado - Sanders has been interesting because he has not thrown at all this draft season and there are rumors that he is slipping but I cannot see the Raiders passing up on a QB when they have the chance to grab one after being left out in the cold last year. This can obviously change if they sign a veteran like Sam Darnold but Sanders will still most likely go in the 6-10 range at the worst even with him supposedly dropping. 7. New York Jets- Will Johnson CB Michigan - Another guy who is an interesting case as he hasn't really shown what he can do to this point in the draft and has seen his stock supposedly slip in the last couple of months of the process. With so few impact guys and the Jets having needs pretty much all over the place I still slot Johnson into this spot as he seems like a guy that Aaron Glenn would appreciate having. I know this sounds like a repeat here but Johnson is an incredibly safe pick for a new general manager. 8. Carolina Panthers- Jalon Walker DE/LB Georgia - I wouldn't take Walker here with this selection as he is an incredible tweener in my opinion but the real guys who do this for a living seems to disagree with me and Walker appears destined for the top 15 selections. He does have incredible athleticism and the ability to get to the QB I just worry is he a 3-4 rusher, an off the ball LB, or a guy who can put his hand in the dirt. It remains to be seen but I have questions on him at the next level. 9. New Orleans Saints- Shemar Stewart DE Texas A&M - Someone is going to take Stewart very highly based on his all world potential. Everyone saw what he did at the combine and the potential he has inside himself. The Saints have needs all over the place and need to replace a ton of positions. They decide to take a crack on Stewart at the tail end of the top 10 who has a very high ceiling but also has a floor that could have him floating around the NFL for years. 10. Chicago Bears- Armand Membou OT/OG Missouri - I have consistently had Membou as my # 1 offensive linemen in this draft even before the combine and his combine did nothing to dispel what I see on tape. He is a monster whether on the outside or the inside and the Bears could use help at both the outside and inside making this a no brainer pick for the Bears at the # 10 spot. 11. San Francisco 49ers- James Pearce DE Tennessee - Rumors of a catastrophic drop was in the news before the combine due to Character concerns and maybe those are still a thing and maybe it was something being floated hoping that a bad combine in addition to rumors would lead to a steep fall. After that combine plus his tape there is no way that Pearce is in for a fall in a draft that has very few high end difference makers. The 49ers jump at the opportunity to grab Pearce who on the high end could be a Brian Burns type player and on the low end would be a Leonard Floyd type player. 12. Dallas Cowboys- Ashton Jeanty RB Boise State - I could see Jeanty going higher and I can see Jeanty going lower but I see him as the type of player that Jerry Jones would fall in love with and would give excitement to the Cowboys. Add into the fact that the Cowboys need an impact running back and this pick makes sense as the Cowboys can fill their other needs later in the draft. 13. Miami Dolphins- Nick Emmanwori SAF South Carolina - Everyone's favorite player after the combine goes to the arch rival Dolphins at pick 13. They are losing both of their starting safeties in Poyer and Holland most likely and need to replace them and while Emmanwori has issues, his upside is undeniable being able to do a multitude of things. He also would add a physical presence to the Dolphins that they are sorely lacking. 14. Indianapolis Colts- Jahdae Barron CB Texas - I actually could see Barron going higher than this and could be in contention with Johnson as the # 2 CB off of the board but I feel for the # 2 mock draft, this is a good spot to place him right now as the Colts have big time needs in the secondary and Barron can fill any one of the multitude of positions that the Colts need in their secondary. 15. Atlanta Falcons- Jihaad Campbell LB Alabama - I slot Campbell in here after his fantastic combine and there are rumors that the Falcons are absolutely enamored with him bypassing the Edge Rusher need for the 85th year in a row for another position. They do have a need at LB as well and again Campbell is a testing freak in a draft that lacks high end talent. Combine numbers are pushing up a lot of these guys in comparison because most guys are graded the very closely. 16. Arizona Cardinals- Mike Green DE Marshall - Same as Version 1 for me that Mike Green goes to the Cardinals. I was one of the first people that had Green as a potential top 20 pick and his combine won't slow that speed down. The only thing that could have him drop is the fact that he has some character concerns (sexual assault accusations). He is right up there with the other top edge rushers and has youth on his side to continue to grow as he matures. 17. Cincinnati Bengals- Derrick Harmon DT Oregon - Sorry Bills fans but Harmon after his combine and tape is going to be long off the board before the Bills even get a crack and in this iteration he goes # 17 overall to the Bengals. The Bengals need all kinds of help on the defensive side of the ball and Harmon has been moving up the board even before his strong combine performance. 18. Seattle Seahawks- Tet McMillan WR Arizona - Tet McMillan's fall ends here. I always thought he was an overrated prospect when he was being mocked to the Patriots. He has the size to be a difference maker for sure but he has separation flaws that could have him fall. I see his ceiling as being around where Rome Odunze went at 9 last year and his floor being 19 to the Buccaneers. He is going somewhere in that range in my opinion and with the possibility of Lockett being released and Metcalf being traded McMillan makes sense here. 19. Tampa Bay Buccaneers- Tyler Booker OG Alabama - With the Bucs just missing out on McMillan at 18, the Bucs take the best pure guard in the draft in Tyler Booker who will hopefully start opening up some running lanes for an anemic Bucs offensive line and help protect Baker Mayfield. 20. Denver Broncos- Tyler Warren TE Penn State - This is another prospect, like McMillan, that I think is a very good prospect but has been highly overrated by the draft community. Warren is a good talent and Nix/Payton will get the best out of him in their system but I question Warren's long speed and his stiffness as a runner which might affect him as a pass catcher at the NFL level. 21. Pittsburgh Steelers- Matthew Golden WR Texas - Another combine Bills favorite on the board goes pick # 21 to the Steelers. Golden is a perfect compliment to George Pickens on the other side and whomever the quarterback will be for the Steelers next year. I am very high on Golden as a true Z receiver in the NFL. 22. Los Angeles Chargers- Omarion Hampton RB UNC - I have always been high on Hampton and his combine with his 4.47 at his size will make him a lock for the first round. The Chargers, with Harbaugh wanting a balanced offense would love to get his hands on a power back like Hampton and he gets his chance here as they continue to try to reconstruct their offense around Justin Herbert. 23. Green Bay Packers- Luther Burden WR Missouri - This pick is an interesting one since the Packers have a good amount of depth at the position already but really have no difference makers. In addition they have Jayden Reed in the slot and like to use two TE's at time but the upside of Burden and the possibility he turns into the dynamic WR that they have been lacking allows the Packers to make this selection. 24. Minnesota Vikings- Malaki Starks S Georgia - Starks lack of size and straight line speed is made up for with a great deal of football saavy and smarts and the Vikings and Brian Flores would love to get their hands on a player like Starks who can do multiple things that Flores likes to do in his defense. 25. Houston Texans- Kelvin Banks OT Texas - I have never been high as high on Banks as others and his fall stops here with the Texans who keep him "home". The Texans need to fix their offensive line and Banks can play RT and eventually take over for Tunsil or move inside to Guard in the meantime. 26. Los Angeles Rams- Emeka Egbuka WR Ohio State - The Rams take Egbuka here as a value play. The are going to go into the season without Cooper Kupp either via trade or release and Tutu Atwell is a free agent leaving the Rams thinner in their WR corps with Stafford in a win now situation. Egbuka helps remedy that situation immediately. 27. Baltimore Ravens- Nic Scourton DE Texas A&M - This is just one of those typical Ravens picks. Let a guy keep sliding down the board and then take the BPA and in that case that is Scourton who will make his way to the Ravens much slimmer than he was at A@M last year. 28. Detroit Lions- Mykel Williams DE Georgia - The Lions need defensive line help after being ravaged with injuries last year and couldn't stop anyone after all of them hit. Williams is a good base end who has the potential to be a plus pass rusher but right now he needs to develop that aspect of his game. 29. Washington Commanders- Josh Simmons OT Ohio State - I personally have Simmons as my # 1 true Tackle in this draft but I can't deny that him not being able to show his recovery from knee surgery will hurt him. The Commanders still need to give Daniels as much help as they can and will do that adding Simmons with Deebo Samuel who they just traded for. 30. Buffalo Bills- Kenneth Grant DT Michigan - Well well boys and gals, the Bills swipe up Kenneth Grant at the 30th choice fitting everything that Buffalo could possibly want from a 1 Tech. Grant is incredibly athletic for a man his size but he does have negatives. For being close to 340 pounds, I would like to see him be more physical at times. Sometimes he plays too finesse for a man his size but at the same time you don't get a guy that size who can get after the passer while also being able to clog running lanes. I think that inconsistency plus the fact that he has yet to work out in any capacity makes me think he is in for a little bit of a drop. Will he actually make it to 30 and will the Bills actually have this pick come draft time. Remains to be seen but I think its more of a possibility than it was a month or two ago. 31. Kansas City Chiefs- Colston Loveland TE Michigan - I just think the value here is too good to pass up for the Chiefs as Loveland is the clear # 2 TE and with Travis Kelce likely in his last year playing, the Chiefs snap up Loveland to be his eventually replacement. 32. Philadelphia Eagles- Walter Nolan DT Mississippi - Nolan is another guy who has a lot of potential and upside but also has multiple concerns. First he has character concerns, how serious who knows, he is undersized for a defensive tackle at 293 pounds and has yet to show what he can do in the pre draft process. His tape also left a lot to be desired at Texas A@M before greatly improving at Miss. The Eagles don't care about character and they have the players to give Nolan the time needed to adjust to the NFL. 2nd Round: 33. Cleveland Browns- Donovan Ezeiruaku DE Boston College 34. New York Giants- Jaxson Dart QB Mississippi 35. Tennessee Titans- Jonah Savaiianea OG Arizona 36. Jacksonville Jaguars- AZ Thomas CB Florida State 37. Las Vegas Raiders- Trey Amos CB Mississippi 38. New England Patriots- Josh Conerly OT Oregon 39. Chicago Bears- Landon Jackson DE Arkansas 40. New Orleans Saints- Malik Hairston CB Kentucky 41. Chicago Bears- Darius Alexander DT Toledo 42. New York Jets- Grey Zabel OT North Dakota State 43. San Francisco 49ers- Cameron Williams OT Texas 44. Dallas Cowboys- Jayden Higgins WR Iowa State 45. Indianapolis Colts- Mason Taylor TE LSU 46. Atlanta Falcons- Benjamin Morrison CB Notre Dame 47. Arizona Cardinals- Donovan Jackson OG Ohio State 48. Miami Dolphins- Tyleik Williams DT Ohio State 49. Cincinnati Bengals- Xavier Watts S Notre Dame 50. Seattle Seahawks- Demetrius Knight LB South Carolina 51. Denver Broncos- Treveyon Henderson RB Ohio State 52. Pittsburgh Steelers- T.J. Sanders DT South Carolina 53. Tampa Bay Buccaneers- Carson Schwesinger LB UCLA 54. Green Bay Packers- Darian Porter CB Iowa State 55. Los Angeles Chargers- Elic Ayomanor WR Stanford 56. Buffalo Bills- Shavon Revel CB East Carolina - Revel goes from being a possible late first round pick to falling all the way down to # 56. This happened for a multitude of reasons. He has some concerns on tape but mostly because he is coming off a torn ACL and even though he is expected to be ready for training camp, he might not be at 100% strength for the season. Couple that with the fact that Hairston, Amos, Porter, and Thomas, had fantastic pre combine all star games and combines and you can see Revel dropping further and further. The upside is enormous and the Bills have a huge need but could also afford to wait on him a little bit if necessary. 57. Carolina Panthers- Andrew Mukuba S Texas 58. Houston Texans- Tre Harris WR Mississippi 59. Baltimore Ravens- Airontae Ersery OT Minnesota 60. Detroit Lions- Marcus Mbow OG Purdue 61. Washington Commanders- Alfred Collins DT Texas 62. Buffalo Bills- Bradyn Swinson DE LSU - Swinson is flying up the boards. He has prototypical size at 6'4 255 pounds with almost 34 inch arms. He also had a monster final season at LSU and parlayed that into an excellent combine where he showed top end change of directions skills in the hoop drill, and agility testing that was only behind Donovan Ezeiruaku. The reason why he goes so late is he is a late bloomer. He only had one year of college with good production and will have to prove that his final season in LSU is not a mirage. He, in my opinion, is still an ascending player as he can still fill out his body even more and be the true pass rusher the Bills have lacked. 63. Kansas City Chiefs- Kaleb Johnson RB Iowa 64. Philadelphia Eagles- Jordan Burch DE Oregon- 132 replies

Phillips being at the top makes sense as he uses nothing but a bull rush really as his pass rush move and it is quite effective at the college level but he will need a bigger repertoire at the NFL level to be successful. -

This isn’t all inclusive. They can meet up to 60 prospects and only 26 were found to this point so it’s very possible they met with him -
Eh I wouldn’t go that far but it def doesn’t help. Singletary ran a 4.66 and got drafted in the 3rd and Estime ran 4.72 last year and got drafted. This draft being so deep tho as well will def push him down a decent amount

gonzo1105 replied to gonzo1105's topic in The Stadium Wall
I think the strength of the Bills needs on offense are actually best in the mid rounds, the WR depth in this class is best in rounds 3-5 and the RB class and TE class has depth. RFA money just came out today and Quinton Morris to be tendered would be 3.3 million. Can’t see that happening so we might be in the market for TE3 late in the draft. I think you might see Defense first 3 picks then adding your offensive depth guys. That’s obviously dependent on resigning Hollins and/or Cooper or adding another vet -
Yea I agree he’s not that type of player. With so few impact/highly athletic players in this draft, guys like Emmanwori are going to go high despite their flaws because their upside is undeniable due to their athletic traits. Its not a high impact first round as you already know
-
In my next rankings, I am going to dock Terrance Ferguson and Thomas Fidone a full round for their stupid full leg sleeves.
-
Porters 4.30 is way more impressive than Hairston cause of the size difference It would suck to be the guy running 4.55 -4.6 because that is still plenty fast but you look so slow compared to your peer group

Never had a shot even before it imo but yea for sure sure now

Ezeiruaku just went 92nd percent in the short shuttle and 3 Cone drill proving his athleticism and shiftiness and bend combine that with long arms and a developed pass rush arsenal and you can see why I’m a lot higher on him than most on this board
