CommonCents Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Looks good to me, someone pass me another beer.

MAJBobby Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Just now, Kirby Jackson said: I agree 100%. They have done a nice job imo (even though Allen wasn’t my guy). They have gotten good value and plugged some needs. The point that I was making is that they definitely aren’t comfortable at WR or they wouldn’t have been talking with the top guys. I think a Denver guy is a sleeper potentially. Bandit has been screaming to trade a late round for Travis Benjamin. That’s not a bad idea either. What I do know is I dont think Bills think they are as bad on the OL as the fans think.

You can wait to take a reciever cause the Bills need a track star at this point and they are always avaliable late. Really just need a Goodwin type here to keep Ds honest. Skill wise ehhhh Yup...from the work ive done looking at the drafts in round 6 you usually get the guys who are good football players with poor measurable(ie speed) and round 7 is for guys who are athletic freaks with poor football skills

I think we are in trouble on the OL. That said, there is very little worth drafting on the OL at this point. Kind od disappointed to miss out on Ballage as an rb though. Samuels might be a good pick as a good utility rb/fb/te

Some day, when some posters realize that it is no longer 1985, they are going to understand that a teams needs 4 starter-level CBs. 3 good CBs, and a backup who's OK, FAILS, because that guy will be targeted all day. Why? Because today's base offense is 3 WR/TE/RB, or, 2WR/TE/2RB(one of which splits out), or, 2WR/2TE/RB(which plays hell with CBs who can't tackle/lack toughness/get schemed into trying to cover a TE who is bigger and taller, see: The Patriots Offense), or what we see more and more of: 4 WR/RB...as the crap college offense's spread package infects the NFL. So, for like the 500th time since 2005: we ALWAYS need CB, and today, there is no doubt that CB is more important than O line. Think! How many times have we had 2 CBs injured...and lost/nearly lost a game because we had backup practice squad/street FA coming in and trying to cover? 50 games at least in the last 10 years. That's 50 Ls. How many times have we been unable to put a team away by "pounding the rock" because, even if that works, on their next possession the other team gets it and throws 7 passes down the field for a TD, putting them right back in the game? That is exactly why CB is more important: you don't get to use your big O line/eat clock/run the ball/whatever....if you are constantly playing from behind/tied because the other team can throw on you all day. Now, you have to throw, just to keep up, thus completely defeating the purpose of building a run-fist team. Without a above-average secondary, you don't even get an opportunity to use your line, no matter how good it is. So, yeah, we always need CBs. 1
xxxxxxxx Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 I think its safe to expect a WR with the 1st overall pick next year.

I’d agree with this as well. I think that they are looking at Groy, Bodine, Miller and Vlad on the interior and Dawkins & Mills with Newhouse as the swing tackle. I would like to see another tackle added but we will see.
TPS Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 17 minutes ago, Kirby Jackson said: I like the pick. Slot Corner is a big need. There’s a good chance that he’s an upgrade from Leonard Johnson. They have experienced O-line backups currently on the roster. They have no backup CB with experience on the roster. This is an obvious need, unless you're Biff from Tonawanda, to quote metzelaars... 1
