Pine Barrens Mafia Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Someone please tell me there's a Calvin Johnson type receiver out there in college waiting to be drafted by us. Or, barring that, another Julio Jones type. We need WRs badly. Any college fans out there know of anyone that's coming available this year?

The big 3 names at the top of most draftboards are Mike Evans from TAMU, Sammy Watkins from Clem, & Marquise Lee from USC. Evans is a big 6'5" 225lb guy. He's not as athletic as Calvin Johnson, but he's got good hands. Watkins is around 6' 205lb and has kind of a RB build. He can go deep but YAC is his bread & butter. Lee is around 6' 200lb and is a great all around receiver who excels at intermediate & deep routes.

Mark Vader Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 no worries, we wouldnt be drafting high enough to get them anyway Which is why we should sign a WR in free agency. Anquan Boldin or James Jones.
RyanC883 Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 We could get Lee, who played with Woods at USC. That would be a great pair to have together.
dascottbills28 Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 We need a big, tall guy that will go over the middle and make tough catches. We havent had a good jump ball receiver since Eric Moulds. Mike Evans, despite his less than ideal speed, would probably be our best bet.
Hazed and Amuzed Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 One guy who I'd really like to draft IF he declares is Kelvin Benjamin. He may need a year or so to develop but this kid will be a beast. He's 6'4 230 and runs in the 4.4/4.5 range. He comes from Glades Central HS right up the road from me which breeds NFL players. Just to name a few off the top of my head: Fred Taylor Santonio Holmes Anquan Boldin Reidel Anthony Louis Oliver Travis Benjamin I played against Belle Glade all 4 years in HS. I've watched Fred Taylor up close and personally and I've seen Boldin from the stands when he was a QB(he was a year or two behimd me). I've gone to games from time to time since those days and I can tell you that this kid Benjamin took over a game like no one else that school has had since either of those guys.

I may be in the minority but I think that he is going to be not just a good player but a star. Late in the season he was consistently the best player on the field (and his team is loaded). He is a little raw but unbelievably gifted. I really like all 4 of those guys and I think that Benjamin would probably be the 4th one of them off the board at this point. I think that he will end up as the best which is saying something.
HSerotte Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 (edited) You want someone who would help EJ, Mike Evans is the guy. Praying the Bills spend there 1st round pick on him this offseason. This is a must watch video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wE2dcmtpgAw Edited December 18, 2013 by HSerotte
Section242 Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 He wasn't very good vs LSU. Of the WR who look to be going in the 1st rd, he's the guy i'd want for the Bills. Watkins is 6'1 and I think Lee is around 6'. Evans is listed at 6'5. If they want to help Manuel and because he's a 1st rd guy I think they do he makes the most sense. Unfortunately the best WR prospect in Beckham-Green isn't eligible to 2015. So it goes for the Bills.
section122 Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 First 3 plays... Drop, bobble on wide open pass, hold on running play. I can't watch the whole video yet but yikes.
youngunz Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 I have seen some special plays from this kid, but whoever put this highlight (low light) video together needs to be fired.

Mike Evans should be the pick for the Buffalo Bills.
LB3 Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 He's good. I prefer Kelvin Benjamin of Florida State personally but either would be cool.

peterlaw Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 Don't know about the WR but I quite like the look of the QB !
jr1 Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 He went crazy against Auburn and Alabama. Would like him as an end zone target for EJ
