Sherlock Holmes Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Like Vander Esch but hopefully he turns out to be better for us :/
C.Biscuit97 Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 I want to apologize to Tremaine. The Allen pick made me hate you. It’s not your fault and people seem to like you. Welcome to the Bills.

Hard to justify using a lot of draft capital or big bucks on MLB-only type anymore. In the past, it is what McD’s D has been predicated on. Dude seems to have the range and speed to work the middle but not sure if he’s built for it. He seems sleek not bulky. Not a bad thing just my first eye test impression.
The Now Moment Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Esch didn't even make it to our pick anyway. Good trade up!

I hate trading all these picks...I'm more upset about the 410 pts we lost on the value chart than I am about the Allen pick itself... That being said when I heard "Tremaine Edmunds" I about fell off my chair...It softened the blow for sure... Yeah......this hyped up draft process has got people geeked on draft capital. Reality is that they traded a 23 year old WR with All Pro ability and a still young DT with All Pro ability who was a one-man run defense even when he was loafing.............for a lousy haul of a second and fifth round pick in a mediocre draft class which only has *maybe* 15 players with first round grades. The Bills have been losing actual player talent points like a mother!@#$er since Beane got here....it was a pipe dream to think this draft capital was going to replace that. They came out of this draft with 2 of the players with first round grades........they are going to have to patch holes in FA and coach em' up but if Allen and Edmunds pan out this is a RARE time when the Bills got two players who will not be hard to justify paying if they reach FA. Beats the hell out of a Shaq/Ragnuts kinda' draft, IMO. 2

I don't know how good he can be, he's still so young. The potential of both of these players is very exciting. Bills fans just have to be patient while these players learn
billsfan714 Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 (edited) I like to scour draft sites and this does perk me up....Great Blue North had both Allen and Edmunds in their top 5. Edited April 27, 2018 by billsfan714 2

billspro Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 We got a steal there! I was still in shock about the first pick, I was surprised he was there. 1

Edmunds isn't a violent hitter but the league is trying to legislate that hyper physical football out. Big, fast, quick, incredibly rangy LB with potential to maybe be an edge rushing force.........that sounds like a guy who could project as very special player in the NFL. 2
P51 Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 They got a blue chip LB at 16, rejoice Bills fans, he should have gone top 10. 3

You can't keep everyone bud.
