YoloinOhio Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 Lee is my #7 rated overall player in this draft, which I know is high but most of the analysts I follow have him rated in the top 12. Lee is also my #1 target for the Bills, I think he'd be a great fit given the opportunity, now Rex, Whaley and Co??? Crystal Ball: Lee (who would provide the coverage ability and more needed for Buffalo at LB) will likely be gone by the 16th pick and if not, Atlanta (at 16) is a great natural fit given there scheme and need at WILL, O'Brien Schofield is a nice player, but an upgrade is needed. IMO Buffalo would have to move up to 15 at best to get him and that would cost a 3rd most likely, which I dont think they will do. Sadly I think Lee will not be available when Buffalo picks. he is visiting the Falcons today, actually
P51 Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 I have Lee rated at 13th overall right now, and I do indeed have him going to Atlanta (they pick at 17 though). Side note: I've had today circled on my calendar for a while now...Houston's pro day. We get to see what kind of numbers my boy Elandon Roberts can put up. Atlanta to me is a perfect marriage of skill set and scheme fit, makes too much sense to me. Re: Elandon Roberts - I am going to try to watch him vs. FSU in the next couple weeks, saw Navy, the guy certainly plays with intensity, can be a heat seeking missle inbetween the tackles, can also lunge too much and miss, good job getting off blocks and working through the trash, not sold on cover skills, but would be nice mid-late round addition as a ILB and leader IMO. He is moving up my board, it'll be interesting to me to see what comes out of his pro day today. he is visiting the Falcons today, actually Lol, shocking!!

He said he wants to hit 30 strength lifts and run in the mid 4.5's, though I'm really more interested in his shuttle times and 3-cone.

The shuttle and cone times would certainly help make a case for potential coverage wise and stock overall if they are good. Ill be interesting to see his 40 time as well actually, I wasnt sold on him side line to side line, especially into the field side line from I have seen. No questions regarding heart and intangibles, coaches seem to love him from what I have read.

Indeed--clearly the only knock on him could be size/speed stuff...his motor, strength, and leadership are unquestioned.
26CornerBlitz Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 Falcons draft priorities could be impacted by signing Upshaw: @RapSheet #Ravens OLB Courtney Upshaw, one of the top available free agents, is set to visit the Atlanta #Falcons, source said.
3rdand12 Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 Darron Lee comes to mind. Fisher: NFL to see more 'hybrid guys' if only ! cannot see trading up for him though
thebandit27 Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 Matt Miller @nfldraftscout 2h2 hours ago #Houston LB Elandon Roberts Pro Day results: 5-11 234 Bench - 25 Vertical - 37 40 - 4.51/4.49 Broad -9'9/10.0 Outstanding...just as I hoped
Hazed and Amuzed Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 Bandit, What do you think of Cravens? I'd really like to see us pick him up in the 2nd-4th. As much as I'd like to get Lee it's looking less and less likely he'll be available at 19. I think he may be a stud as a hybrid olb/ss

Elandon Roberts 'when I didn't get invited to the combine, it put a chip on my shoulder' Elandon Roberts 'the team that drafts me is getting a steal. I'm the best linebacker in the draft' Elandon Roberts said his first tackle was his dad when he was five years old

As much as I'd like to get Lee it's looking less and less likely he'll be available at 19. I think he may be a stud as a hybrid olb/ss Love Cravens as a Will in a 3-4...in fact I think that's probably his best fit in the pros. He's got enough size and speed to match against TEs, and his ball skills seem to be getting better. He acquits himself nicely in the run game for a guy that doesn't crest 220 lbs. I think 49 is a great spot to pick him if you're the Bills, but I also think that the rise of players like Mark Barron, Kwon Alexander, and Deone Bucannon will probably push him into the 30-40 range. The Bills were represented there today. @AaronWilson_NFL Indeed...they also spoke with him at the Collegiate Bowl back in January. Really hope there's some interest there.

I think he may be a stud as a hybrid olb/ss I watch a lot of USC (but not a ton of other college ball for the past two years, so my view is pretty narrow) and have loved Cravens for the past couple seasons. He's a competitor, fierce hitter and LOVES to play. I'd welcome him on the Bills roster in the 2nd or 3rd -- though I doubt he makes it out of the 2nd round.

To be honest I hadn't hard too much about him until recently but the more I watch him the more I want him on the Bills.

If somehow we could land both Vernon Butler and Su'a- that would be great for our D!
