I will second this. Position of need, fits McDermotts defense to a tee, has a good shot at being there at 54. Good football player too.

Stanford Samuels is terrible. Reminds me so much of Tavarus McFadden coming out. Has all the potential but never fulfills it. Plus running in the 4.7s at the combine didn’t help. Strong pass unless a UDFA

I actually think it would be wise to trade Adams. He’s a luxury who is going to want 15 million per. He’s a good player but he’s by no stretch a great player. Some team will bite and give them multiple draft picks to restock their team with for their offensive line and WRs

This message brought to you by the Las Vegas Raiders and/or the Los Angeles Chargers.

The 2 big takeaways I got from the hour were he plans on acquiring a Power Back, wanted to keep Gore in the lineup last year for a downhill presence. The 2nd is they want to make the Special Teams elite which makes me think a late rounder may be used on a Punter.

I wouldn’t mind it in the 4th to 6th round area

The game was sloppy early on with turnovers but both teams DBs looked like they were in concrete

I’ve only seen him a couple times but each time I’ve seen him he’d rather play the I’m unfiltered tough guy just like he was when he played, which I’m sure NFL network wants him to be like. I think it makes him a worse analyst but I’m sure they live it if it means more eyeballs, clicks, and social media attention

I'm an FSU fan and trust me Akers is an absolute stud. He'd constantly be getting mugged at the line of scrimmage and get 2-4 yards. He usually broke a couple of big ones a game, which is what got him his majority of yards. He's also a great receiver out of the backfield. He's very comparable to Dalvin Cook in my opinion. If Cook went in the first and Akers goes in the 3rd its an absolute steal. I could have told you EJ Manuel was gonna be a bust and probably did on these boards but everyone looked at his stats and said man he's got a really good shot. The thing about Manuel was he was a huge reason why Florida State went 12-2 in 2012. That is not a positive. That team was loaded and he cost FSU both games against NC State and Florida. If Jameis Winston started over Manuel as a true Freshmen I have little doubt that FSU would have been back to back national champions.

This kind of tells me they don’t plan on getting rid of Brissett.

Yes it is, Overthecap.com has been doing it for years predicting like 98% of comp picks every year. The pro bowls, games played, contract size only matters when net value and net loss are equal. Which determines whether you get a 7th rounder or not. I legit do this every year in explanation. The Bills have signed 7 Free Agents.....those 7 are Vernon Butler DT Quinton Jefferson DT Mario Addison DE AJ Klein LB Tyler Matakevich LB Taiwan Jones( prob wobt qualify bc contract will be too small) Josh Norman(was released and won’t count) Bills have lost Shaq Lawson DE Jordan Phillips DT Kevin Johnson CB So as it stands right now the Bills are at a + 3 when it comes to additions, if Jones doesn’t qualify they are at a + 2. This means you get nothing because the only way to qualify for picks is to have equal or net loss. Lets see why why the Patriots get comp picks ever year and Bills fans think it’s a huge conspiracy. Patriots net loss is 4 The Patriots have lost Tom Brady QB Kyle Van Noy LB Jamie Collins LB Danny Shelton DT Elandon Roberts LB Nate Ebner ST Ted Karras OL Patriots have gained Beau Allen Adrian Phillips Dan Vitale Damiere Byrd(won’t qualify due to contract size) so 7 lost minus 3 gained equals -4, meaning yes folks the Patriots are in line for 4 compensatory picks next year

I agree, this is why I believe Schefter. Your telling me the Bills, after cutting McCoy, offered Gordon 8.5 or so a year to split carries. I highly doubt it. Sounds like the agent wasn’t getting as many bites as they thought he’d get, used the Bills as leverage to the Broncos to get them to give Gordon as much as possible.

If I had to pick 1 that is left I’d lean towards Devonta Freeman but I think they are content drafting one with Yeldon still here.

Were not getting any so don’t hold ur breath

Out of guys I legit think might be there at # 54, I’ll take Cam Akers RB from FSU

There is some talk they may take Tua at 2. I’m sure if they are as bad as I think they are going to be there is no way they’d keep Haskins over Lawrence.

I gotta think the Redskins have to be the early favorite

I think your going to start seeing smaller signings like under 5 a year etc. Prob a RB, CB depth things like that

If he was willing to come in as a backup? Hell yes I would. He clearly has the talent to play at a high level in the league. He would be a guy who could win you games in the NFL, not sure Barkley could win us 50% over the long term. He has his flaws no doubt about it, but if you can cut down the INTs just a touch your telling me you wouldn’t take a backup QB who can light teams up. Plus he did get Lasix this offseason lol, maybe he was throwing to who he thought was on his team

I still think OLB is a spot they can take. If they want a more explosive player I could see a guy supplanting Klein. Duggar would make sense. CB,WR, RB and DE would be other positions

I find it interesting that Vernon Butler and Quinton Jefferson signed at the same time pretty much. Last year Beasley and Brown signed at the same time. If I recall correctly, Beane said something like he wanted them both at the same time so the signing of one of them wouldn’t scare off the other one. He must have done the same thing here with the DTs and speaks to the organization level that he executes things at.

I wonder if the Patriots will call up the Indianapolis Colts to see if they can get Jacoby Brissett back from the Colts. It would be a good fit, a guy who is familiar with their system, has starting experience in the NFL and is now a backup in Indianapolis

The biggest difference for the people complaining about the Diggs and Hopkins compensation comparison is that Hopkins is going to get a new deal probably in the 21-23 million dollar AAV. The Bills gave up a 1st rounder because Diggs will essentially take up half of that allowing for the Bills to spread out their cap to other positions. Much harder on the salary cap when you’d be paying Tre White 18-20 a year, Josh Allen 30-40 a year, and D’Andre Hopkins 20 plus. With a cap of 200 million, you’d be paying those 3 almost 80 million dollars or roughly 40-45% of your cap and you still need to give Dawkins and Edmunds big money in the near future

I always liked Klein for some reason, esp in Carolina. Solid player. I’ll wait to see how the numbers shake out but the way Beane does business I’m sure it will be essentially a 2 year deal with a lot of escalators

I’m surprised there has been nothing on DJ Reader so far. The Bills M.O. has been super tight with no leaks(didn’t have any outside of Frank Gore), and nothing on Reader has me thinking the Bills are in on him. Thought he’d be one of the first guys to go.
