Mountain Man Posted December 14, 2017 Posted December 14, 2017 That would be a great draft for me and the way I'd like to go if our draft spots remain about where they are now. A stud DT to rebuild the line and a LB to sit alongside Milano suddenly gives the D a huge improvement Quote
26CornerBlitz Posted December 14, 2017 Posted December 14, 2017 https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/news/2018-nfl-mock-draft-bengals-select-qb-baker-mayfield-to-replace-andy-dalton/ 21. Buffalo Bills from Chiefs Mason Rudolph, QB, Oklahoma State. Rudolph is a pocket-passer by trade and demonstrated scrambling ability when needed. He has quality touch down the field and is capable of making all the throws, especially the deep out from the far hash. He's also unafraid to pull the trigger on a pass toward a receiver being tightly covered. In many ways, his game contrasts with Tyrod Taylor's. 22. Buffalo Bills Vita Vea, DT, Washington. Third unchanged pick from a week ago. Can't tweak it at the moment. Too perfect. Vea is stunningly strong, capable of controlling offensive linemen and tossing them aside to make impact stops against the run. His hand use helps him as a pass-rusher too. He's what the Bills need in the interior. 1 Quote
Mountain Man Posted December 14, 2017 Posted December 14, 2017 I'm going to watch more of Rudolph, not seen enough yet. Vea is becoming a common mock selection, seems an obvious fit. Quote

Possible but with his prototypical size and pocket passing skills, I can see him gettting drafted in the 1st. Quote

Certainly a plausible scenario from my perspective with many needs on the team that must be addressed. Edited December 14, 2017 by 26CornerBlitz Quote

That's an interesting thought. That pick will still net a king's ransom. It is currently the 6th pick and Niners/Colts won't be going QB and possibly NYG. That would leave 6 as a spot teams could jump to and get the 3rd qb. 6th pick is worth less points by the old trade chart than the 2 #1s the Bills currently have. So trade would look something like this: Bills Give: 15 and 21 Bills Get: 6 and late 3rd/early 4th rounder. Bills made a deal with Dorsey last year too so hopefully they have that good working relationship! Quote

And? Go ahead. The issue we have is not the QB, it's the OC and a D that can't stop the run. Our offense was fine with Taylor last season. I'm fine with taking a QB, but outside the top 2 prospects is there really much difference? Allen is a complete punt, same with Mayfield for different reasons, and Jackson they can't even decide if he is a QB or a WR. There are good prospects at QB in the 2nd, even 3rd. That is when we should look QB unless Darnold or Rosen falls. The total effect on our team would be biggest taking a DT, LB or O lineman early. Someone like Nelson would have a huge effect on our offense. Throwing a dart at a QB is fine, but it should be at the right value Edited December 15, 2017 by Mountain Man Quote

Yes it was, because it's total output that matters and because Tyrod facilitates the run game. Quote
