YoloinOhio Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 @JaySkurski: Dez Lewis' only pre-draft visit was with the #Bills. The team and player kept that under wraps well.
dayman Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 Kiper says one of the steals of the draft. Size and natural pass receiving skills. Played well against big competition. Shocked he wasn't taken in 3rd or 4th.
26CornerBlitz Posted May 2, 2015 Author Posted May 2, 2015 From ESPN: What he brings: Lewis has an above-average combination of size (6-4, 214) and strength to go along with adequate top-end speed. While he needs to add polish with his routes and do a better job of finishing at the top of his stem, he does flash the ability to create late separation and win in one-on-one contested battles.
The Frankish Reich Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 KC picks Da'Ron Brown ahead of us. Maybe they'll sign Da'Rick Rogers and have Da'Rick and Da'Ron. I would do this just for the humor value. Then again, we've cornered the market on the various Marquises.
NoSaint Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 (edited) @JaySkurski: Dez Lewis' only pre-draft visit was with the #Bills. The team and player kept that under wraps well. Seems that they came in with a handful of major targets and got several. The Rb and TE from fsu were no shock, this guy seemed a specific target, Darby was posted here before the pick.... I wouldn't be surprised to hear their final board was a bit smaller than we would expect (with of course a more extensive set of guys just in case things took a major turn.

ToGoGo Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 (edited) Watched the Texas Tech tape. He's tall and long. Smooth runner although I agree, not a speedster. Made a couple highlight reel catches. Did it against solid competition. The draftniks question his toughness and I did see him run out of bounds one play where he should have stiff armed the guy Fred Jackson in Chicago style. Crappy QB throwing to him so he knows how to adjust. Interesting small school receiver. Definitely worth a 7th round pick. Edited May 2, 2015 by musichunch
26CornerBlitz Posted May 2, 2015 Author Posted May 2, 2015 @RyanTalbotBills Kiper Named Dezmin Lewis a 3rd or 4th Round Pick. #Bills got him in Round 7: http://buf.scout.com/story/1543361-bills-select-central-arkansas-wr-dezmin-lewis?s=24 #CentralArkansas
26CornerBlitz Posted May 2, 2015 Author Posted May 2, 2015 5 things to know about WR Dezmin Lewis The Bills were looking to add some stature to their talented WR corps. They’ve got it in Dezmin Lewis.
gohogs14 Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 (edited) Really good range and can high point the ball well. Big receiver. Edited May 2, 2015 by gohogs14
Dr. Fong Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 Last year we pick big guys for Marrone's zone and this year we get small guys when we want to power run. Don't see O'Leary drive blocking anyone. It's as if you've never seen him play or read anything anyone has ever written about him.

BuffaloBillsForever Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 (edited) Very unimpressive draft IMO I thought this was a very good draft for the Bills... a lot of undervalued players. IMO they took advantage of market inefficiency. Edited May 2, 2015 by BuffaloBillsForever
Beef Jerky Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 Very unimpressive draft IMO Those are usually the best drafts.

#34fan Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 Lewis has a shot, but it's a very long one IMO... He requires a significant amount of remedial coaching... Perfect 7th round pick for a draft riddled with blown opportunities and lousy decisions. Wonder who claims responsibility for this level of incompetence? Whaley? -Tpegs?

Nitro Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 (edited) not a speed guy? He's 6'4 214 and ran a 4.46 @ChrisTrapasso: Lewis could certainly be a PS stash for #Bills. But his size and high-pointing skills are intriguing. Football speed, not run in shorts speed. His play showed it. That is why he fell. Work out warrior. The kid will do well due to size and hands in the Red Zone if he toughens up against better competition. This is a good pick up Edited May 3, 2015 by Nitro
