thebandit27 Posted February 24, 2016 Posted February 24, 2016 (edited) Just to be clear with those unfamiliar with this player Jarran Reed: He recorded 1 sack in 15 games in 2015. For a career total of 2 sacks in 29 games. Stats don't tell the whole story but......no stats? I wasn't implying that you were for drafting for this years needs.......I was just discussing draft approach in response to your post. I saw in another thread a fan on TSW wants to trade next years first round pick for extra top 60 picks this year so that the Bills can patch defensive holes. The only defensive player that I would trade up for this year would be Myles Jack. I think he's special. I don't remember a guy in recent memory that can play classic MLB-type run defense on one play, and then stick with his man stride-for-stride while playing slot corner on the next. That's a guy you simply can't find every year. As to Reed, I like him because I think he carries value beyond that of a 2-gap player. He can 2-gap, which I like and believe this team needs, but he's versatile and quick. He reminds me a bit of Sheldon Richardson in that he hasn't blossomed as a pass rusher, but his lateral quickness and strength make me believe that he can. I do agree that I wouldn't take a plain space-eater at 19 overall. I'd much prefer to get a guy like Spence or Darron Lee. Edited February 24, 2016 by thebandit27

Boyd and Watkins would be a fantastic 1-2 combo. Still not entirely sold on Ragland at #19, but don't dislike it either. Rounds 3-5 are fantastic later round picks that would really make this a terrific class!

RyanC883 Posted February 26, 2016 Author Posted February 26, 2016 Here is my try today: 19: R1P19 DT SHELDON RANKINS (necessary DL help with a versatile guy who can play DE or DT). LOUISVILLE 49: R2P18 OT JASON SPRIGGS (OL help. Guy that is well-suited to Roman's blocking style). INDIANA 80: R3P17 OLB JORDAN JENKINS (all-around OLB). GEORGIA 118: R4P19 WR STERLING SHEPARD (great #2 WR) OKLAHOMA 156: R5P17 S SEAN DAVIS (can't believe he was still here. Guy can cover and hit.) MARYLAND 195: R6P17 OLB JOE SCHOBERT (can't believe he was here either. A bit "undersized", but can make plays all over). WISCONSIN I like the idea of a guy named Scooby. I love it. He should just go by "Scooby" and have that on the back of his jersey!
4merper4mer Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 I love it. He should just go by "Scooby" and have that on the back of his jersey! You cut him out of your mock draft. Boooo.

Franchiseneedsme Posted February 27, 2016 Posted February 27, 2016 What round is Fuller projected? I really like him as a 2wr
YoloinOhio Posted February 28, 2016 Posted February 28, 2016 What round is Fuller projected? I really like him as a 2wr2-3, but there's always a Grigson
Kirby Jackson Posted February 28, 2016 Posted February 28, 2016 What round is Fuller projected? I really like him as a 2wrI like him but he struggles against physical corners and doesn't have very good hands. He makes big plays but is more of a weapon than an every down receiver IMO. Maybe I'm wrong.

RK_BillsFan Posted February 28, 2016 Posted February 28, 2016 Ok so serious question guys..... Kicker..... possible once in a generation kicker is in this draft..... if you were to draft him, what round?
YoloinOhio Posted February 28, 2016 Posted February 28, 2016 Ok so serious question guys..... Kicker..... possible once in a generation kicker is in this draft..... if you were to draft him, what round?5 at the earliest ...IMO
Kirby Jackson Posted February 28, 2016 Posted February 28, 2016 Lee Evans-ish?Evans without the hands. Outside of that memorable drop, he had good hands.
YoloinOhio Posted February 28, 2016 Posted February 28, 2016 (edited) Evans without the hands. Outside of that memorable drop, he had good hands.i have also heard Kenny Stills comparisons, but his hands actually scare me. The Bills, with the few times they throw, can't afford to throw to a guy who has a catch percentage like that. A team that throws a lot can afford to put him out there for his speed and big play potential but the Bills need someone with a high catch percentage. May need to give up some speed for that. Problem is the lack of WR speed in this draft. Thank god we have Sammy. Edited February 28, 2016 by YoloinOhio
