P51 Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Don't sleep on Mackensie Alexander here. Forget about the obvious Clemson connection for a moment. This guys is a great 3rd CB to me. He is a tremendous man to man guy. He allowed zero man to man touchdowns all last season. Zero. And allowed only 19 receptions for 258 yards on 58 targets. That's amazing. Imagine what a defense could do with not 1, not 2, but 3 CBS who could handle their business with one on one man coverage. Would open up so many blitz options. If he's there, I think they will seriously consider it and I hope they do. If he's there they should silence the phones, run to the podium and turn the card in. I was really surprised he made it out of the first round. Tenn, Dal, Balt, KC, Chi, and Mia, all have CB needs and draft in the first 10 picks of the 2nd round I dont think he makes it past the 42nd pick.
NoSaint Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Visits to Bills who are still on the board ~RD2-3 (not incl DE, OLB34): Bell S, Cravens S-LB, Reed DT/NT, Washington DT, Cook QB, Prescott QB, Hackenberg QB, Jones QB My Bills Grab List Jarran Reed DT34 Austin Johnson DT34 Su'a Cravens OLB34-S hybrid V Bell SS D Thompson Boise State FS JHawkins LT At Safety, #Bills have Aaron Williams returning from injury, Graham (age 31), and 4 justaguys #scary for some reason the cravens pick seems like a rex package kind of guy to me. i think there would be a good shot at that, potentially.
The Jokeman Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 (edited) I think it will be S. Cravens, Bell, Green. No particular order, we'll see who's left at their pick. we signed that ufa from the Vikings who has NFL starting experience. I think we will take a S in the draft but not until day 3.

P51 Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 So much talent left, I cant wait till tonight... I keep getting the willies when I look at the players left, personally I like Billings, Reed or Ragland at 49 as realistic options, the physicality level would amazing combined with Lawson. Cravens, C/D. Jones, Robinson, Bell, Cash, D. Thompson, Boyd, Ward, oh my...
26CornerBlitz Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 I'd love to see an interior DL like Jones, Reed, or Robinson.
Joe Miner Posted April 29, 2016 Author Posted April 29, 2016 we signed that ufa from the Vikings who has NFL starting experience. I think we will take a S in the draft but not until day 3. You could be right. I'm not convinced that our S position isn't still one of the weakest spots on the team.
NoSaint Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 I'd love to see an interior DL like Jones, Reed, or Robinson. im not as sharp on the depth this year as i feel some years, but i think we see a big body later that isnt terribly diverse but fills a role from day 1. i dont have a name or precise round to put on that though. today i think is a spot you see WR, OT, or back 7 of the defense barring someone surprising falling to us. qb possibly, but that wouldnt get me that excited.
26CornerBlitz Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 @TyDunne Some names: LB Jack, DT Reed, DT C. Jones, DT Billings, ILB Ragland, T Spriggs, QB Cook, QB Hackenberg, CB Alexander, LB Cravens, S Bell. @MatthewFairburn NFL Draft 2016: 12 players Buffalo Bills could target on day 2 http://www.newyorkupstate.com/buffalo-bills/index.ssf/2016/04/nfl_draft_2016_12_players_buffalo_bills_could_target_on_day_2.html
DrDawkinstein Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 You could be right. I'm not convinced that our S position isn't still one of the weakest spots on the team. Agreed. Aaron's neck is a concern and Graham aint getting any younger. Add the fact that Rex loves using lots of Safeties, and it is definitely still a big need. IMO.
Deranged Rhino Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Cravens, Jack (still want him), Jones or Reed please.
BarleyNY Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 (edited) Spriggs is still available - he's probably worth it. But IU players scare me, haha Problem is that he is athletic and looks like a pure LT for a zone scheme. He's not powerful at all so you're not getting much in the way of run blocking from him. Just not a fit here if the Bills are going to run a lot and with Glenn at LT. Edited April 29, 2016 by BarleyNY
ChanOverChin Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 There are a lot of very good players left to be taken in R1. I'd like to see the Bills make a trade to acquire another R2 pick. They must come away with a DT, an ILB, a WR, and a QB from their remaining picks. it would also be nice to acquire a S and an OL. How high a priority is acquiring a QB?? That is the most interesting to me. QB C. Cook, DT J. Reed, ILB R. Ragland are all desirable R2 picks.
The Poojer Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 (edited) what is "the cost" of moving up in the second round and also keeping the current second round pick? I would love to see them climb up higher in the round, get one(or both) of the LB's still out there, but at what cost would that come? Is it possible to get both Ragland and Jack in the second round with what we have to offer? Is it even worth it to go after both of them? There are a lot of very good players left to be taken in R1.

Mark80 Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 (edited) Cook is extremely inconsistent, disappears in the biggest games, and was rumored to be hated by teammates (I mean, one of the top college QBs that was a 3 year starter and still not a Captain? That says a lot to me). Add to that his completion percentage was below 60% (and regressed to 56.1% last year) and you have all the makings of a clipboard holder for his entire career. I don't know how anyone can see it any different. I would be pretty upset if he was our pick. But hey, he's looked great against powerhouses like Indiana and Rutgers so what do I know, right?

You're probably looking at giving up next year's 2nd, along with a couple other picks.
Reed83HOF Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 I'm starting to think trade back into round 2; grab a DT & LB and finally a late round OT and call it a day. If Taylor flames out, our pick will be high anyways trade up and get the best guy net year. Our D will be mostly rebuilt and possibly only need safety and possibly right side OL help... As much as I would love a #2 WR, we have Watkins, Shady, Woods and Clay and are a run first offense - I suppose we could wait on that. If you could get Jarren Reed and Ragland, do it and call it a day
BuffaninATL Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Tell me this wouldn't make you happy: http://www.si.com/nfl/2016/04/29/nfl-mock-draft-round-2-picks-predictions-players Holy crap that would be good. - getting Ragland being described as thievery, and I saw a lot of Mitchell here at UGA to know he can ball
