PolishDave Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 Tre White Baby! Screw all the haters! Dude was the leader of our defense as he wore #18 which goes to the team captain, and an excellent punt returner. Preach! I respect this post Ditto.
Bangarang Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 This team was always a punt returner away from really competing.
Big Turk Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 Why? A rookie CB is cheaper and learning curve at the position is not steep. I would personally Let a FA CB walk. Managing a team is more than just "Is this player good"...you have to look at what you would be paying to keep a player and then what you can replace him with. Is Gilmore really worth $12 million/year more than this kid? Highly doubtful. Bills add 2 more picks plus a good player on top of it. Can't say it is splashy, but these are the types of moves that are going to finally help us turn the corner. Just keep drafting good players...and trading back when you get the chance to darft more good players.
turbo044 Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 Yep I called it too. Valevictorian with GPA of 4.6. tpugs wasn't kidding about character. Now, is lattimore going to be better than white, the 3rd Rd pick and the 1st next year? Doubtful.
BuffaloBud420 Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 Such a reach. Could of got a better corner in 2nd or 3rd even
CanadianFan Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 The Pats must have like Gilmore enough to take him from us in FA. he's proven. and they didn't have enough picks this year to pick in the first round.
dubs Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 Do people realize that three or four corners play regularly, that there is always churn, and it's a premier position so cost for vets is super high? I mean, I like Gilmore too but this seems like a solid pick.
Dragonborn10 Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 Nearly 6ft. 4 year starter. Solid pick. Now get Kizer or Foster in second
SDS Posted April 28, 2017 Author Posted April 28, 2017 Most people probably paid no attention to the players around the bottom of the 1st round, so most don't know much about him.
Reed83HOF Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 Fantastic pick! What a wonderful philosophy our team continues to employ. A first round corner is a one way ticket to the super bowl, or at least deep into the playoffs! Hopefully we can find a safety in round 2. #nobodyspinsthewheelslikethebuffalbills
Canadian Bills Fan Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 ESPN seems to be drooling over this kid. One of them even said he is the best CB in the draft. I think we got a solid player CBF
Bills Fan in MD Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 He's going to look great in a Pats uniform in 2021.
Big Turk Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 Is he a small cb or is it just me? He is nearly 6', he is about normal or slightly taller, IMHO
Malazan Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 I literally do not get you people that don't like this. I get it that it's not a glam pick, but this is a fantastic pick. there's a segment of this board that was going to hate the pick no matter what
WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 I'll say this: if Foster slides to day 2, and the Bills spend the 5th from Gilly to get him, this looks like an elite defense
