2020 Our Year For Sure

Three DBs, but only 2 CBs, and no corners until the 6th round. There's a key difference between corner and safety: safety was a need, corner wasn't.

Look back, dude...thats exactly what you're saying is inaccurate.

I really have no problem giving this draft a solid A. You'll see me complaining about the cornerbacks, but the fact is we didn't pick a pro CB until the 6th round. Our first 5 picks were a pass rushing DE with enormous upside, a ballhawking FS, two highly-rated interior linemen and an athletic recieving tight end. Thats darn near perfect, in my opinion. How long have we been screaming for the Bills to meet those needs? This is a day to feel good, regardless of the wasted picks at draft's end.

I don't think its fair to exclude Marcus Stroud from this list, HA. He wasn't a free agent, but he still did not come cheap.

I can't tell you how many years I've been begging for them to get 1) a pass rushing DE, 2) a Center, and 3) a recieving TE. After years and years of neglect, those things have FINALLY been addressed. We obviously don't yet know how these guys will turn out, but Bills fans should be feeling encouraged today...the Bills have delivered highly-rated prospects to fill needs we've had for far too long. Its too bad they had to finish the weekend the way they did, and leave a bad taste in our mouths. Still an encouraging weekend all in all.

If you read a report that the Saints called the Bills and offered them Jabari Greer and a top-15 1st round pick for McKelvin, can you honestly say you think the Bills should turn that down? Thats the trade we made when we picked McKelvin.

My problem is not in letting Clements walk, my problem is the insistence in using a 1st round pick to replace him. This team did not need Leodis McKelvin...we could have accomplished the same thing by re-signing Jabari Greer. Do you want McKelvin, or Greer AND a 1st round pick to use elsewhere? McKelvin has to be some kind of player to justify that trade-off.

Cause heaven forbid we let a CB walk without using a 1st round pick to replace him. The Universe might just fall apart.

If it wasn't the Bills, it would be hilarious.

And Parcells' Dolphins are hardly a finesse team.

Wow, I've felt completely the opposite. Mayock and Gruden have been on fire all weekend.

They're still all going to make the team. Meaning this guy will not.

The reason why its so ridiculous for them to take another corner is that we don't even have room for him. McGee, McKelvin, Florence, Youboty, Corner. You can't tell me we couldn't have put this pick to better use when we already have 5 legitimate cornerbacks. Its a 6th round pick so people shouldn't get all worked up over it, but its dumb, in a laughable sort of way.

Wrong, on both counts, IMO. We'll see.

I think Levitre should come in and get a chance to develop a bit before being thrown in there. If he comes into camp and picks everything up quick and wows everyone thats one thing, but he shouldn't be penciled in as a starter from day one. Right now my line is LT Walker, LG Wood, C Hangy, RG Butler, RT Chambers. And of course Bell, Levitre and McKinnie will have the opportunity to win jobs at camp and preseason.

They're playing him at safety...the DBs coach said so in an interview, the video is on bb.com. Ko Simpson or John Wendling will probably be cut, and they're not exactly All-Pros.

I'm with the majority:

I'm psyched about this draft, but the fact is none of us know how the careers of any of these players will go. To say someone doesn't know about football because their opinion differs from yours on an issue that has no factual basis either way, seems a bit arrogant.

This MUST be tongue in cheek. You're talking about the best punt returner in National Football League history.

But as an opening day starter, Astro? I'd rather let a rookie enter the league behind a stop-gap vet with some experience in our system, and let a mid-round rookie develop and compete for the job down the road.

They were probably waiting to see how the draft played out, and now that they decided to go in other directions, we need a stop-gap. I really don't want either Ellison or a 4th round rookie to come in and start opening day. Keiaho could be a nice signing to round out the front seven, and would come cheap. Git'r done, group GM.

Complaining about their neglecting the OL and DL doesn't hold up the way it did 24 hours ago, on the other hand.

If he's a safety, I've got no qualms.

They just can't fcking resist can they? :wallbash:

Thats not the only time I've heard him compare Maybin to Jason Taylor. McShay's been real high on Maybin through the whole process. Most people seem to think he's the best speed rusher available this year. Lets just hope he reaches his upside.
