26CornerBlitz Posted December 29, 2015 Author Posted December 29, 2015 @ChrisTrapasso Jared Goff time. Will we see Aaron Rodgers-ish play or somewhere between Eli Manning and Ryan Tannehill? Hurricanes CB Artie Burns leaving for 2016 NFL Draft Miami Hurricanes cornerback Artie Burns, who lost his mother to a heart attack in October, announced he will skip his senior season to enter the 2016 NFL Draft to help support his siblings.
Bill from NYC Posted December 29, 2015 Posted December 29, 2015 I cant wait for the draft CBF Same here. I hope Whaley doesn't trade away our picks!
26CornerBlitz Posted December 29, 2015 Author Posted December 29, 2015 Complete 2016 NFL Draft Order: Titans, not Browns locked in at No. 1 Through week 16 of the NFL season, the Tennessee Titans own the No. 1 pick for the 2016 NFL Draft and a loss in the regular season finale next Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts will make it official.
26CornerBlitz Posted December 30, 2015 Author Posted December 30, 2015 Memphis QB Paxton Lynch vs. Auburn kicks off Dec. 30 bowl games Although the heavy hitters don't play until New Year's Eve and New Year's Day, the Dec. 30 slate of games provides a number of prospects on the NFL radar led by Lynch vs. SEC competition.
YoloinOhio Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 Paxton Lynch on now - ESPN - for those interested
C.Biscuit97 Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 Paxton Lynch on now - ESPN - for those interested Not overly impressed. Love the size but their offense is gimmicky. He definitely isn't ready for prime time yet. He needs to sit for a year or 2 (like 95% of college Qbs) to have a real future.

He needs to sit for a year or 2 (like 95% of college Qbs) to have a real future.jmo but there isn't a QB in this draft who doesn't need to sit for a year or 2. Unfortunately, some desperate team will draft one high and start him right away expecting immediate results (Browns). Hopefully they don't with McCown there but he's injury prone so who knows how many games be even plays. Fortunately for us, the Bills are not in that situation and if they do take one, he's developing behind Tyrod as a goal. If Tyrod gets hurt, I think they will have another option as well behind him whether it's EJ or a vet. Edited December 30, 2015 by YoloinOhio
DisplacedBillsFan Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 Recently put this in the QB in 1st round draft thread, but figured I would put it here as well. I enjoy reading thoughts from others on who they may want, especially guys after the first round, so figured I would add my thoughts to the conversation. One area we need to improve next year is our group of WRs as a whole. Yes, we have some talent, but we are not nearly talented enough after Sammy and Woods (I know some debate Woods' talent, I feel he is a solid 2 or 3 who should be on the field a lot and utilized more). Anyway, we should take a WR in the draft, and I think it should be Rashard Higgins from CSU. Last year, with an experienced QB he had 17 TD grabs and led the nation with 1,750 receiving yard. Entering this year, he was considered by some to be the best WR in the nation, and was a consensus first round selection. Unfortunately for him, he had a few injury issues early in the season (which are now in the past and he finished the season strong) and played with a QB who was making his first college starts. Despite missing some time he still finished with 75 catches for over 1000 yards and 8 TDs. He had 9 catches for 129 yards in the Rams bowl game last night. Higgins is listed at 6-2, 190 and has had his 40 time clocked at 4.4. Because of his down year, draft predictions now have him in the 3rd or 4th round. I feel as this would be an exception pick in the 3rd, and an even better value in the 4th, especially since he has 1st round talent. Imagine a guy like this playing opposite Sammy. Our offense would automatically become more dangerous.
Buffalo Barbarian Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 The coaches at OSU did him a favor then. It's sad what hoe college teams run college rbs into the ground. IMO, rbs have a certain number of carries they can have before they fall apart. Schools like Wisconsin run these guys into the ground and they are shells of themselves at the NFL level. You can also see it with some of the Alabama guys. this is why McCaffrey should go pro after next yr (hopefully to the Bills , could be a Marshall Faulk type player) This should be the Bills new marketing slogan! @ChrisTrapasso Jared Goff time. Will we see Aaron Rodgers-ish play or somewhere between Eli Manning and Ryan Tannehill? Hurricanes CB Artie Burns leaving for 2016 NFL Draft Goff reminds me more of Brady, great in the pocket no so much out of it. Paxton Lynch on now - ESPN - for those interested seems to be struggling to move the offense so far, but he has all the tools to be great however being in the spread will slow his learning curve.

LeGOATski Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 Goff reminds me more of Brady, great in the pocket no so much out of it. Do people make the Rodgers comparison simply because they both went to Cal?
YoloinOhio Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 Do people make the Rodgers comparison simply because they both went to Cal?i have heard more of a Matt Ryan comparison

YoloinOhio Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 This is my guy!! Edelman 2.0 @dpbrugler Western Michigan junior WR Daniel Braverman has declared for the 2016 NFL Draft. 2015 stats: 108 catches, 1,371 yards and 13 touchdowns.

LeGOATski Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 i have heard more of a Matt Ryan comparison I haven't read much analysis on him, but Rodger's name seems to get thrown into the tweets and stuff. Matt Ryan makes more sense.
thebandit27 Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 I'm not a Lynch guy. At all. For all his size and measurables, he doesn't seem to drive the ball on the inward breaking routes or have great ball placement. Maybe I've only seen his weaker games
VirginiaMike Posted December 30, 2015 Posted December 30, 2015 One area we need to improve next year is our group of WRs as a whole. Yes, we have some talent, but we are not nearly talented enough after Sammy and Woods (I know some debate Woods' talent, I feel he is a solid 2 or 3 who should be on the field a lot and utilized more). I think good Wideouts and a decent O-Line can really make a QB. Look what Marshall & Decker did for Fitzpatrick this year. That said, I'd rather find an experienced receiver who has shown they can catch and run routes rather than draft one in the 1st round who may or may not be able to do those things. The Bills have already invested two 1st rounders to get Watkins so no more at that position.
