YoloinOhio Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Ryan Clark is on Mike and Mike - kind of bashed the trades up because he didn't think those QBs were worth it and of course LSU alum and loved the White pick for Bills. Hates the mccaffrey and Peppers picks because they don't fit the teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Â Thanks for laying that out differently. I agree with the premise. Â A quick revision though... we could have released Tyrod, kept Gilmore, made the signings you mentioned and drafted Mahomes or Watson at 10. I'm not saying that it's definitely a better option. You certainly have more players and perceived value... but if either become franchise QB's that's the better play 100%. Â Â Sure we could do that. That way we'd be in the running for 1st pick overall and risk ruining that QB by playing them too soon. Â And for people complaining that we're just spinning our wheels by drafting a CB to replace one we let go... Isnt that the exact same thing by letting your QB go and drafting his immediate replacement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kemp Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Well, fans liking the pick actually means something cause we spend our hard earned money on tickets and merchandise..........and without the fans, there's no team. Â You dig? You base your fandom based on what happens on draft day? Â I suppose there might be one fan in the stands that lives by that belief.

LabattBlue Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Bottom line with selecting a CB with yet another 1st round pick...A team normally carries 5 CB's. If they didn't SUCK at drafting, there would have been someone behind Gilmore ready to move up the depth chart...especially in the new HC scheme that allegedly doesn't require great CB play.

LabattBlue Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 (edited) they do... Darby. He was Gilmore's replacement the day he was drafted.Since Darby was starting OPPOSITE Gilmore last year and not on the bench BEHIND Gilmore, then where is the depth to replace Darby?

ROONDOGG55 Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Didn't know anything about this guy prior to the pick, but he looks like he can ball! Best rated cover corner last year, and he played against the best within the SEC. The best part of all this, is that we gain another 3rd round pick this year and a 1st next year. Huge draft move that sets us up for the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darby now CB1, White/Seymour can be 2/3. Amazingly all drafted by the Bills. See how this works... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buddy Hix Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 White's size and lack of physical play as per the scouting reports are my biggest issue with this pick, my second issue is just the feeling that the Bills are continuing to spin their wheels by doing what they always do. I do congratulate White and wish him the best, seems like a stand up guy and I always root for those types. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliBills92 Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 (edited) Another wasted draft pick for the Bills. That was the most uneventful pick of the entire night. Â NFLN was speechless other than Mayock who was trying to be polite and talk a little bit calling him solid which isn't much of a complement for a 1st round draft pick while the rest of them just sat there silent with nothing to say about him. Can't wait for the usual Bills spin saying he was a top 10 pick on their board or the top rated CB on their board, etc. The usual made up bs they try to sell us fans. Â The only thing that could even partially make me feel better at this point would be the Pegulas cleaning house completely in the next few days.

WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 I think I figured put why I'm disgruntled. I don't mind having White. He looks like a good fit for the system. It fills a hole, and he should be able to compete immediately and likely win the starting job. Â The problem is, that's what you say about the second and third round pick. We made a conscious choice to move out of the range of high impact players for a good player. Â I'm not saying it's the wrong choice, it's just that White looks like a second round pick that we took at the back of the first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
