BmarvB Posted January 11, 2019 Posted January 11, 2019 If the best O-Lineman in the draft falls down to them at #9, pull the trigger and make the pick. 1

TE Jace Sternberger 6'4" 250 Tex A&M Like the top 4, but I would go Jonah Williams OT in Rd1 as I think Metcalf could be had at pick 41 given injury concerns. Also any DT picked should be a 3T as we don't really have one now (Jordan Philips could play there if re-signed). Good work here 2

He has the best hands in the draft and we have the best fastaballer QB. 1
tbarg12 Posted January 11, 2019 Posted January 11, 2019 Definitely don't think Ed Oliver will be there at 9, I would've taken Allen or Greedy.

I don't think I'd take a WR in this draft top 20, if I was going to take a flier on a guy it would be our own UB alum Anthony Johnson, the guy runs really nice routes, not blazing speed but enough to keep the defense honest and excellent hands plus we screwed up on not taking Khalil Mack so I'd think we'd be straight up fools to do that again if the opportunity was right. I have a feeling we select a pass rusher, Clelin Ferrell of Clemson round 1, I truly believe the Bills will build up most of the OL in FA, also add a veteran WR then get the rest via draft, heavy offensive draft I'd say.

I would love to see him at SLB and coming off the edge in passing downs. He is a little undersized but he is a baller with an unbelievable motor. Fingers crossed this happens. He is someone that is on my radar too in the 5th or later.. As mentioned, could fit the Lorenzo role longer term .., On the small side, , but as we have seen with Milano when he was drafted this is not necessarily a deal breaker with this team.. 1

Metcalf has top 10 ability, and had he not been hurt he would be ranked there already. His type of injury shouldn’t have an impact on his career either. So if he has had a big combine, he will likely be on many teams boards as the top WR on the board and could go top 15 even top 10. I want him or Harry. Edited January 11, 2019 by Alphadawg7 1

Just because you or I feel he's worthy of being a Top 10 pick doesn't mean it will be. Reason? Most teams who are breaking in a new QB go through FA and later rounds of the draft to get their receivers. WRs for the most part take 2-3 years to fully understand the game and develop chemistry with their QB though there are exceptions. But those usually have seasoned vet QBs like Brees/Thomas, Big Ben/JJ, Ryan/Jones, Rivers/ Allen. Taking a WR at 9 when there so many other needs is not smart from a GM perspective. He may very well be a first rounder and even a Top 10 Target but I don't see it being Buffalo. It would be Sammy Watkins all over again and Sammy was a better prospect than any of the WRs in this draft. 1

I know the current regime has a type of DE, and I think Smith's best fit is probably a pass rushing sub edge player in a 3-4 D, but with a few more pounds of muscle he could be the heir apparent in Alexander's hybrid role. First initial = last initial = guaranteed bust. Think Connor Cook , Blake Bortles.

Every year I fall in love with a player (last year it was Mayfield) and this year it is Jacobs. Solid blocker, runs hard, passionate about the game, and a weapon as a receiver. I hate 1st round RBs but I'd make an exception for him, IF we can trade down. A tough inside runner is as much a priority as is bolstering the line. I'm not sure I would want to use a second round pick for a back but I'm not adverse to it. We can get second tier receivers in free agency who will still upgrade the unit. The OL is the priority and so is upgrading the offense in general to put our young and strapping qb in a position to succeed. 1
