26CornerBlitz Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 Ledyard's 2019 Mock Draft 3.0 - The Draft Network 4. Buffalo Bills PICK: Greedy Williams, CB, LSU Williams doesn’t come without some flaws, but the Bills desperately need another talented corner on the outside across from Tre White. Adding his former college teammate could complete a Bills secondary that will need to be a huge strength while the team’s offense finds a way to climb out of the cellar.

That would be the value and need matching the pick. A #2 CB is a massive need. Teams just throw away from Tre in every meaningful play. Perhaps they fill this need elsewhere but it is a big need. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Bills take a cornerback anywhere near the first round the fans would burn down the stadium. CB 2 is no where near the top of the list of needs of this team. WR, OG, C, OT, RB and QB (pending Allen’s season and injury) are all far greater needs. I wouldn’t be upset if they completely neglected the defensive side of the ball in the 2019 draft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t be upset if they completely neglected the defensive side of the ball in the 2019 draft. It is a massive need. I’m not advocating necessarily taking a guy there but if you’ve noticed they throw at Phillip Gaines every big play. He was targeted about 10 times yesterday and the week before (along with the LBs). A CB and you could have the Legion of Boom 2.0. You need to be elite in some areas and that’s the Bills best chance. They can get away with mediocre pass rush. The defense can go from good to great. You just can’t reach on a player. You can’t take the 15th best player in the draft at the 4th pick because you have need. The value needs to match the need. The best players in this draft class happen to play defense. It is about the player, not the position.

Speaking on behalf on NYC Bill he condemns you for your advocacy of drafting a DB in the first round. He is as resolute on this issue as he is as a Bama supporter.

Trade down would be optimal at that spot instead of taking a CB. I would even take slightly less value to trade down if it came to that. I just can’t get behind “defense wins championships” anymore. I feel this year has proven what we have seen in the past, defense wins mediocrity, offense wins championships. I want a top 10 offense, even if it comes at the expense of a bottom 5 D. Some highlights of the bottom 10 defense club are New Orleans, Kansas City, New England, and the LA Adams. Arguably the top 4 teams in the league all have bottom 10 defenses.

First round dbs are fine......as long as the team has a quarterback, a rock solid offensive line, pass rush, a strong DT rotation, and last but not least......a talented, fast receiving corps with players that are hard to cover. With any luck, the Bills might be able to fill these needs by 2030. Then I say go for it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My position is trade down once or twice to get to the lower part of the first round and then use those added picks to address those multiple needs as you describe. This team needs an infusion of talent to accelerate the rebuild. Conventional cautious thinking is not going to suffice. As I have said on previous posts (as you have also stated) a wise use of our large cap capacity and an infusion of top two round talent will move this lagging franchise at a quicker pace.

zow2 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Ryan Finley (QB) plays tonight for NC State. I like the guy. He's already 24 years old and looks like a polished QB to me, throws around 68% completions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
