Kirby Jackson Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 I also think that it is important to monitor the positions that were in for visits. The Bills had primarily corners, WR, RB, OL along with the QBs and LBs.

It's not number one because I'm not as panicked with the O-line situation as many are. The coaches felt good about Ducasse and Mills on the right side, they brought in Bodine and also have Groy as the potential starting C, and Dawkins is solid at LT. We know why Ducasse got the starting RG slot, it's because it was believed by the coaching staff that he best fit Rick Dennison's zone blocking scheme. John Miller is not trash by a longshot and he is still on the roster. Brian Daboll could find Miller more valuable to what he wants to do as offensive coordinator. Miller could always regain the RG position, while a more athletic Ducasse gets flipped to the LG spot. Maybe Miller is moved to LG and Ducasse continues to man the RG spot. I'm not thrilled with either Ducasse or Mills and the Bills could upgrade, but they both were part of that rushing attack surge that caught on late in the season. I think the Bills should to add to the line in this draft, but I don't think at all that it's a must that they go OL on Day 2.
bkep32 Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 96. Harrison Phillps - DT or LB(jewell) 121. Chukwamua Okorafor - OT (spelling??) 166. Sean Walsh - G/C 187. Akrum Wadley - RB 255. Allen Lazard - WR

Its going to be a movie we have all seen before here at OBD.
Mr. ChumChums Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Let's protect our shiny new toy. OL should be the highest priority right now. Then, once we can keep him upright, let's give him weapons.

mileena Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 1. OL 2. OL 3. WR 4. LB 5. DL 6. CB 7. RB 8. WR/TE

What is it about AJM and Allen that will cause this OL to be a complete disaster?
Dkollidas Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 1. WR 2. OG 3. H-Back/TE 4. OT 5. OG 6. RB For the “H-Back/TE” I would really love an offensive weapon. Something along the lines of either a Troy Fumagalli if they went with a traditional TE (I wouldn’t expect one to be take until the 5th round), or a guy like Jaylen Samuels or Kalen Ballage. Samuels especially intrigued me, and with the amount of running backs available this year, he could slide. Could be a nice receiving option out of the backfield for Allen in the future. In a league that’s becoming more and more about matchups, he’s a guy that could provide a mismatch.

Rob's House Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 1. WR 2. OL I see no other glaring needs at the moment, although we need depth in the secondary.
