corta765 Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Here's a hypothetical scenario. We can only draft 1 of these top prospects in the 1st round that we need. Pick 1 out of the 10 prospects and explain WHY you chose your choice over the others. Considering we just resigned TT, I've ignored the option of drafting a QB in the first round. Also, consider trading down from 10th overall to get one of these players, what would we get in return? 1. Marshon Lattimore - CB 2. Malik Hooker - FS 3. Mike Williams - WR 4. Jamal Adams - SS 5. OJ Howard - TE 6. Malik McDowell - DL 7. Corey Davis - WR 8. Cam Robinson - OT 9. Reuben Foster - ILB 10. Jonathan Allen - DL Personally I would choose Corey Davis. Reason why is because he has more "juice" than M.Williams and would be a benefit to the offense to create a dual threat at the WR position. Even though there are a lot of great options, I believe we need to go WR at first round. Based off current needs probably Corey Davis and if he is gone then Reuben Foster. CB & SAF there is enough depth in draft to get in 2nd/3rd rnd
Chuck Wagon Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Based off current needs probably Corey Davis and if he is gone then Reuben Foster. CB & SAF there is enough depth in draft to get in 2nd/3rd rnd We "need" ~7 positions. You can't draft based off need, especially #10 overall.
frostbitmic Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Jamal Adams ... Adams at SS and Micah Hyde at FS would make for pretty decent set of starting safeties. Having Poyer come in as the #3 safety would be solid depth. Since I don't believe that Adams, Allen, Foster or Hooker will be there at our pick, I'd probably go with Mike Williiams who seems to be really good at fighting for the ball, which will likely be necessary with our QB's. Trading down a few spots and taking Davis or Howard wouldn't be a horrible idea either. I still like Watson though, even at #10.
1billsfan Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 The Tyrod crew doesn't want to move on. They would rather settle for another 6-10, 7-9 finish. It's as if way back in the Dick Jauron era, he brainwashed a whole group of people into thinking that not turning the ball over is the most amazing and spectacular thing a QB could do...ever.
ChanOverChin Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 The Bills aren't likely to make the playoffs this year and even if they do manage to sneak in they're not going to go very far. That's why I say that they should plan to draft the very best player on the board at #10 overall. Foster, Allen, Adams, and Hooker are the best players listed. I would not discount D. Watson just because we have TT. The Bills are very weak at CB so Lattimore deserves some consideration. There are so many holes right now that it really becomes a very difficult choice. The safest play may be to trade down two spots to #12 overall with Cleveland and maybe pick up extra R2 and R4 picks.
Rob's House Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Who on that list do yall think is the best player regardless of position?
EersN'Bills Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Jamal Adams. Even though I've been slightly frustrated by Whaley's love of drafting ACC and SEC players, who have no idea how to play in the cold, the Bills need another safety and he's slightly better than Hooker IMO. Even before Hooker's injury. In any event he probably won't last until 10.
chris heff Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 The Bills need to draft a QB in the first because Taylor sucks. Evidence of this is that no other team in the league wanted him, so he came back. My write-in pick is Mahomes. You do understand that Taylor was never a FA, thus no other teams could talk to him. And how do you know that no trade discussion took place?

DrDawkinstein Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Well, Jonathan Allen would be the obvious choice as he is a Top-3, if not #1 overall talent. Outside of that, my reasonable choice at #10 would be Jamal Adams or Mike Williams depending on which side of the ball we feel is more important to address. Who on that list do yall think is the best player regardless of position? Allen, without question and it's not even close.
jeffismagic Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 It's as if way back in the Dick Jauron era, he brainwashed a whole group of people into thinking that not turning the ball over is the most amazing and spectacular thing a QB could do...ever. It feels like we just hired Dick Jauron. McDermott is now in control and the future looks bleak. And yes, every time Tyrod throws an incomplete pass on 3rd down and the Bills punt that is also a turnover. Fans just latch onto whatever numbers they can to prove Tyrod is more than a bottom 5 starter.
gonzo1105 Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Man if I had to go with one on the list I'd probably take Malik Hooker. I'm really intrigued by Obi though. He has the size and athleticism that we desperately need against the Patriots. With his size speed combo he can develop like Byron Jones and would be one of a handful of guys who might be able to slow down Rob Gronkowski. In addition, he is a bigger Shaq Thompson who can be the LB/S combo that McDermott really likes to have on his roster. A really flexible, versatile behavior. Anybody who thinks this guy is gonna be there at 44 is nuts
Kirby Jackson Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Malik Hooker Generational talent IMO How good was that Buckeye secondary?!? They appear to have completely reloaded it too.
YoloinOhio Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 How good was that Buckeye secondary?!? They appear to have completely reloaded it too.i want to draft Jeff Okudah and Shaun Wade already.
BillsFan130 Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Williams because of the position he plays. Can't say i watch too much College, but from what i hear, this guy is a beast
Kirby Jackson Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 i want to draft Jeff Okudah and Shaun Wade already.Yep, I saw that Okudah hit 23.2 MPH. That's the same top speed that Tyreke Hill hit (think it was the fastest in the NFL last year). Okudah is 6'2" and like 200 Lbs!! Insane
H2o Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 I take Adams. The guy can cover WR's or TE's and lay into RB's. A complete all-around Safety imo.
Real McClappy Posted March 14, 2017 Posted March 14, 2017 Think he means Corey, he is also my choice of the ten. Sammy is always hurt and could be leaving shortly need a reliable receiver! Where is Sammy going? Falcons fans said the exact thing about JJ.
