But you cannot have it all and we have to have a better prospect at QB. I don't know how Mason will turn out so I don't want to cast any aspersions at the guy but man I can help but feel like this at the thought of him being our next QB I agree with most of this (although pass on Baker). He’s a great athlete with no production. I don’t want a CB but I’m a big fan of Ward. He isn’t the perfect fit in our scheme but that secondary could be ridiculous (like Seattle good).

ghostwriter Posted March 29, 2018 Posted March 29, 2018 Rudolph to me is an ideal 2nd round pick, I would much rather take 53 and trade up to 34 with the Giants and take him there. 12 - Vita Vea 22 - Rashaan Evans 34 - Mason Rudolph

H2o Posted March 29, 2018 Posted March 29, 2018 Ward is gonna be a good player, but I would if we drafted Rudolph. No QB still and we didn't even address the LB position like talking about.

Darius Leonard is the player I'd prefer. 1

MAJBobby Posted March 29, 2018 Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) Blah and boring very uninspired not to mention a 2nd round graded QB Prospect reached for. No thank you Edited March 29, 2018 by MAJBobby
Dr. Fong Posted March 29, 2018 Posted March 29, 2018 If they’re going with the team building route then don’t just take Mason Rudolph out of perceived need. The fact that we need a QB doesn’t make Rudolph better.
Turk71 Posted March 29, 2018 Posted March 29, 2018 Have a really hard time believing a cb at 12 is in play. A qb or lb seems a 100 times more likely.
Iamkrgr Posted March 29, 2018 Posted March 29, 2018 That'd be unfortunate if things unfolded that way. 5 Qb's taken before we pick... yikes. I think at worst one of the top 5 QB will be available at 12. If thats how it unfolds it'd be hard to put too much blame on Beane when teams infront of us might have no intention to trade down. Mason Rudolph in Rd 1 is underwhelming though i could see him becoming a good starter under the right circumstances. Not sure if that is here.

Many of his deep passes flutter and he doesn't drive the ball well enough on deep outs. I think he'd throw lots of picks at the NFL level. IMO, Rudolph is a pretty accurate passer and, while he doesn't have the strongest arm, he has the arm strength to make all the NFL throws he needs to make. Actually, even given that he doesn't have the strongest arm, he still throws one of the better deep balls in this draft. He wouldn't be my first choice; however, I wouldn't be terribly upset if we ended up with him as a consolation.

If they don’t go QB at 12 the choice needs to be an impact player in the front 7 of the D in my opinion. Agreed, on all counts. If we went CB at 12 after letting EJ Gaines walk for so little I would be sick.
Buffalo Bills Detective Posted March 29, 2018 Posted March 29, 2018 I MIGHT be ok with the idea of Denzel Ward across from White. However, Rudolph at 22 would be utterly unacceptable. I'd rather they took Vander Esche or Maurice Hurst at that spot instead.
Badanswer Posted March 29, 2018 Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) Are we suppose to be Cornerback University?....every year we HAVE to take a CB according to experts.....yea we take cornerbacks and train them until their rookie contract is up and they bolt in FA or we trade them away. I don't want to train CB's for other teams....ARGH!!!!!!!!!! :::::head exploding:::::: Edited March 29, 2018 by Badanswer
TigerJ Posted March 29, 2018 Posted March 29, 2018 I would be OK with this draft. I might pick one of the players still on the board instead of Denzel Ward, (Calvin Ridley, Harold Landry, McGlinchey, or even Derwin James, but in this mock, the top 5 QBs are all gone before Buffalo picks. Many mock drafters decline to mock trades because they are such a crap shoot. Given that condition (no trades) I think Mason Rudolph is a pretty reasonable pick at #22. The mock checks a lot of boxes for the Bills and some of the later picks have enough good qualities they could be considered sleepers.
