Trade down and stockpile picks because we need a lot of talent. Green Bay has two first rounders and I could see them being aggressive and possibly trying to trade up to the Top 5. I'd love if we ended up with a haul like this next April 1. Kelvin Harmon-WR North Carolina State 6'3 212 1. Amani Oruwariye-CB Penn State 6'1 201 2. Kaden Smith-TE Stanford 6'5 252 2. Chris Lindstrom-RG Boston College 6'4 315 3. Jaylon Ferguson-DE Louisiana Tech 6'5 262 4. Bennie Snell Jr-RB Kentucky 5'11 223
GreggTX Posted November 15, 2018 Posted November 15, 2018 We will be signing our new starting CB after the season ends. I doubt Levi is the answer, but I hope he turns out to be a surprise.
Best Williams Available Posted November 15, 2018 Posted November 15, 2018 8 hours ago, FeelingOnYouboty said: Loved him at Bama last year and was hoping we'd use a mid rounder on him. We got Taron Johnson in the 4th and Levi Wallace as an UDFA. Hoping he sticks. On a random note don't be too surprised if the Bills use their 1st rounder on a CB this year. You're going to see Greedy Williams being mocked to us a lot. Best Greedy Available!

I wouldn't be shocked to see the Bills make that pick. But I would hope they have at least added talent to the WR position via free agency and then go in round 2 and 3 and find some supplemental pass catchers.
Spiderweb Posted November 19, 2018 Posted November 19, 2018 On 11/14/2018 at 8:35 AM, 26CornerBlitz said: Buffalo Bills cornerback Levi Wallace may be the latest in a line of unsuspecting players to have solid performances during Sean McDermott’s tenure as the team’s head coach. The cornerback spot opposite Tre’Davious White has been a revolving door of mediocre defensive backs for the Bills in 2018. The Bills have watched several players come and go, including Vontae Davis and Phillip Gaines. Ryan Lewis has also been a part of the starting secondary in the past. This come a season after Buffalo allowed EJ Gaines to skip town to Cleveland as a free agent. For the moment, it looks like the Wallace will make his name permanent in the starting lineup. Didn't u dersrand why the Bills let EJ Gaines leave without much effort to keep him. Seemed a rad injurynprone, but played solidly for sure when healthy.

He's only been healthy enough to play in 43 of them. Edited November 19, 2018 by Royale with Cheese

Gaines was also expected to get a huge deal coming off of a strong 2017 season and the general thirst for CB play. I think the Bills took a shot on what they thought would a much cheaper shorter commitment option in Vonta while drafting a couple of corners in the mid rounds behind Vonta. I think had the Bills known EJ would go for what he did they probably would have resigned him. I can't blame the Bills for over estimating EJ's market since everyone was projecting EJ to be one of the few top corners available on the market. Most people were estimating that EJ would get 8-10 million per-year on a multi year deal with a sizable guarantee.

HansLanda Posted November 20, 2018 Posted November 20, 2018 I just happen to like Tre's nickname for Levi: "501" 1 1

Good post and probably many here were unaware or have already forgotten a lot of that.

With all the money the Bills have next year I expect them to target a couple in FA. A high 1st rounder can be dealt back for an impact offensive player. At least that's how I hope it works out.

Only if there is no player to help Josh and the O and they can't trade back. IMHO. 1
