If you didnt feel good about Edmunds before....this video takes it up a notch. the only knock the video states about him is completely coach able and partly to do with him being "young" and wet behind the ears a bit still.. again i think he will get older probably every day. 1
Ol Dirty B Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Only first round pick that will be on this team in 5 years.

Damn it, I botched it, good catch. Only first round pick from this year's draft is what I meant. I was trying to get people going, good catch. I do stand by that statement though, I don't know if Allen will even see the 5th year here. That is crazy to say too, and probably dumb. I just don't believe him, I'm kind of out of sorts tonight.

I'm sorry but round 1 is for drafting starters... Not feel-good projects like the Bills drafted today... Neither one of these kids were worth trading up for, IMO.... We didn't get Cam Newton OR Luke Kuechley today.

I'd rather have qb sit for a year and learn than be thrown in and flame out. as far as Edmunds, he will start day 1. He has the potential to be better than kuechley.

I'll go on record today, as hating the Allen pick, and not really liking the Edmunds pick at all... Beane really disappointed the sh_t out of me today.... Not holding out much hope for this regime.

I know two wrongs don't make a right, but I think Edmunds is a good player.

I'm not a fan of these guys, so I'll have no problem saying goodbye. I just like the Edmunds pick, but like you said, we'll see. 1

Edmunds was a consensus top 10 pick by all of the draft experts, and most people thought we would not even have a second pick in the 1st round if we moved up to get one of the top 4 QB's, and still people are bitching. We just got 2 potential superstars and still have plenty of picks left in this draft. These are not "feel good projects", they are 2 top 10 talents on day one of the draft. I am excited for the future of this franchise, sorry you can't enjoy it. 3 2
LEBills Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 42 minutes ago, #34fan said: I'm sorry but round 1 is for drafting starters... Not feel-good projects like the Bills drafted today... Neither one of these kids were worth trading up for, IMO.... We didn't get Cam Newton OR Luke Kuechley today. As far as Edmonds goes, you are right he won’t be Keuchly. He doesn’t have the same instincts and coverage ability. I still think he was the best LB on the board and will be a real problem for opposing offenses with his length and ability to get downfield. Much better on taking on blocks than Vander Esch but with the same sideline to sideline range. If Buffalo is smart, they let both Allen and Edmonds sit for a year to develop mentally and physically. Won’t happen, and that’s why they are talented but risky picks. Which the risk is compounded by what we gave up. Overall though, I love the draft and I hope it works out well for McBean and Buffalo. 1

We could get lucky in the later rounds....FTR, I wasn't a proponent of moving up at all in round 1...But I get it. -You're excited. Here's hoping you're still excited come November. 1
reddogblitz Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 My inside source says he's smart. A great kid. A hard worker. never got in any trouble.. Comes from a prolific football family. I was sitting behind his family and that's what they told me. 1
CaptnCoke11 Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Top 4 linebackers all gone by 21. Good thing they did move up.
WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Legit question, I don't know if it was answered anywhere else in the thread: What position LB does he play? I know we are weak at both MLB and SLB, does he play a hybrid of those?
oldmanfan Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Big fast kid. Should be a great fit for McD. But some want to compare to Kuechly saying he's not Kuechly. Not fair to compare him to the best in the league
