Wayne Arnold Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 So basically we gave away Stevie and threw in the Chiefs game for nothing?
YoloinOhio Posted July 9, 2015 Author Posted July 9, 2015 Mock draft he goes to 1st pick in 4th rd Tampa FWIW http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000499952/article/2015-nfl-supplemental-mock-draft Will start at 1 PM http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2517578-nfl-supplemental-draft-2015-start-time-date-order-rules-eligible-prospects someone actually did a mock supplemental draft?
Canadian Bills Fan Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 someone actually did a mock supplemental draft? haha I would consider using a 3rd no chance he lands to the Bills in the 4th. If the Bills want him they will have to bid a 3rd CBF
CountryCletus Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 So basically we gave away Stevie and threw in the Chiefs game for nothing? But we saved a pile of cash on that contract...
mannc Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 So basically we gave away Stevie and threw in the Chiefs game for nothing?Oh, well. At least we learned our lesson, not to trade for running backs that Chip Kelly no longer wants. Oh, wait . . .
4BillsintheBurgh Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 haha I would consider using a 3rd no chance he lands to the Bills in the 4th. If the Bills want him they will have to bid a 3rd CBF Just remember Seantrel had first round talent and dropped to us in the 7th. I don't know how much he would be able to help a team this year, with the strength issues he has. I'm guessing whoever takes him will have a practice squad player or a gameday inactive all year.

Good point CBF
qwksilver Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 someone actually did a mock supplemental draft? He has us forfeiting our 6th round pick? Did I miss something?
YoloinOhio Posted July 9, 2015 Author Posted July 9, 2015 He has us forfeiting our 6th round pick? Did I miss something? lol - maybe we don't have a 6th because of Cassel trade? I thought it was a 7th.

If the Bills want him they will have to bid a 3rd CBF At first, I thought a 3rd or 4th as well. But I think he'll slide with those issues. So hopefully a 5th or 6th works. lol - maybe we don't have a 6th because of Cassel trade? I thought it was a 7th. Ha, Maybe he knows Cassell isn't making the team? So it's a forfeit instead of a trade? Edited July 9, 2015 by qwksilver
Jamie Nails Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 2 more hours, I can hardly wait! Like Christmas morning.
YoloinOhio Posted July 9, 2015 Author Posted July 9, 2015 Matt Miller @nfldraftscout 2m2 minutes ago Good chance Clemson T Isaiah Battle is picked up today, but I did talk to multiple teams that do not like the off-field risk vs reward Matt Miller @nfldraftscout 1m1 minute ago If I had to put a range on Battle today, I'd say Rd4-6 in Supplemental Draft.
Canadian Bills Fan Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 Throw a 4th out there and see what happens. Not like we hang on to them anyways CBF

Acantha Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 Matt Miller @nfldraftscout 2m2 minutes ago Good chance Clemson T Isaiah Battle is picked up today, but I did talk to multiple teams that do not like the off-field risk vs reward It's kind of crazy to me the difference in how teams approach the supplemental draft compared to the regular draft. As far as I can tell, Battle's off-field issues are pretty minor compared to plenty of guys who end up being high draft picks. It seems to me Battle offers a pretty low risk/high reward for a 3rd or 4th round pick, especially since he won't have any pressure to start in year 1. I guess it call comes down to what the "real story" is behind his decision. Since I don't know anything about him, I really don't care if the Bills try to get him.

Since I don't know anything about him, I really don't care if the Bills try to get him. as far as I know, he tested positive or was caught with pot. I also read he has been kicked off the team or was about to be before he decided to declare for the supp draft. Typically teams don't cut good players just for one pot offense. So I feel like there must be more to the story. Any Clemson fans out there? Edited July 9, 2015 by YoloinOhio
Jamie Nails Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 If nothing else, Rex knows Clemson. If they nab him, I trust the call.

So I feel like there must be more to the story. Any Clemson fans out there?Ah, I really haven't been searching out any info, but I had only seen that he may have been caught with pot and was possibly in the dog house regarding some on the field issues (punching someone if I remember right). Big difference between that and possibly being kicked off the team. Thought I read he was expected to be the starter on a very solid Clemson OL this year. Anyway, I assume Dabo has given all the relevant info to the teams asking for it. I doubt there will be any real surprises.
YoloinOhio Posted July 9, 2015 Author Posted July 9, 2015 @JasonColeBR: GM said today OT Isaiah Battle has a 3rd rd grade, but will be lucky to go 4th rd supplemental. "I wouldn't touch him," GM said. We'll see
Canadian Bills Fan Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 Well it started already right? at 1? Now we wait... CBF
