Fixxxer Posted January 17, 2019 Posted January 17, 2019 PFF, has us taking Jeffrey Simmons on their mockdraft. Only thing I know is he's a a DT.

Seems kind of small for a 3 tech, but I’m guessing he could add 15-20 pounds. I don’t love it, but I don’t know enough about Gary to hate this. Any Michigan fans out there have an opinion? Pizza and wings. Got that covered. As much as I love the pre-draft stuff.....I also hate the pre-draft stuff. All the guessing frustrates me, and I just want it to happen already! 1

The lone Josh Allen and all the good players named Williams are apparently all going to be gone before we get our chance at the podium. Trade Up!!! There is always the chance that they will sign Jesse James and/or Maxx Williams to lessen the blow.

But where is the value at #9? Don’t lose sight of that. Time will tell. However, I’m ALL with you on building the OLine, just do it with value. You win in the trenches.

Aaron maybin was underutilized and penn state didn’t scheme to his ability. Passsssss I’m not a fan of Gary. But a lot of write ups claimed Michigan didn’t know what to do with him. Kid was the #1 Highschool prospect and said to have freakish athletic ability for being 6’5” 280. Pretty sure Maybin was never talked about like that at that level. I did read a lot about if he would be able to play DE in the league at 235 through multiple sources and how that scared a lot of teams away. But we we will see come the combine and pro days. If McD thinks he can bring out that freak which Michigan couldn’t I’m all for it. Not saying Gary is bad, but that kid was talked about being #1 overall. McD knows how to get the best out of people. Example... Would Shaq have been on this level with Rex? No way!

Bean and McDermott really can get the most out of players except for Benjamin. How refreshing is it to finally feel like we have true football minds leading this franchise? 1

I understand what you are saying. I also think this is how a team can talk themselves into reaching for a guy. At 9 I will say the Bills could have multiple guys rated similarly and also have the need portion line up for a couple positions. The only position I don’t see the Bills taking in the first is QB and inside linebacker. Pretty much everyone else is on the table. 1
TigerJ Posted January 17, 2019 Posted January 17, 2019 I think if the Bills were to draft a DT, there might be another one available that I would prefer. In Kiper's mock Ed Oliver is still available. I have some misgivings about him too, but he's certainly a possibility. Then there's Jeffery Simmons. The knock on Simmons has to do with an off field incident in which he was videotaped punching out a girl. That incident happened when he was in high school. He had no problems in college, and he was known apparently for his volunteer work. BTW, while I don't condone anyone for punching out a girl, it seems she was no saint either. In that same incident, she was arrested for distrubing the peace.

Trade back if this is what we are looking for I'm not seeing two-down or rotational player. I think he is a guy that could be a disruptive 3 down player who could play inside or outside (preferably inside) Edited January 17, 2019 by OldTimer1960
RememberTheRockpile Posted January 17, 2019 Posted January 17, 2019 In my opinion Mel Kiper should be mocked. 1

I’m sure one of them will be the pick ...don't get to see college ball bud....so putting aside the individual for a moment, I'm more interested in your assessment as to whether McBeane goes OL or DL in the 1st (maybe neither?), staying put at #10 or trading down to pick up an extra 2nd...thanks...

Benjamin was just lazy, not a team player, played for himself etc.... I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s not on a team come week 1 next season. If Dez Bryant was still looking, no doubt Benjamin should struggle
Pete Posted January 17, 2019 Posted January 17, 2019 Ed Oliver is available our pick in most mocks I have seen. I am always a fan of the trade down, but Ed is hard to pass on. He was in discussion of being #1 pick overall before he got hurt 1

Not sure how much was on player vs coach there, but that was cause for concern.

Teddy KGB Posted January 17, 2019 Posted January 17, 2019 Defense Schmefence. Wideout or OL all draft long please

I can't divulge anymore details. Greatly appreciated. Your fine efforts on Our behalf. but He has suggested Mrs Beane takes your advice as a courtesy to your wife and family. He already knew that, and they wonder why you say it every holiday event. sorry to be harshing my favorite frog : )

I approve of this message. because Daboll like his TEs i still think. But no to DT that high. Bills play a rotation. They need one or two.and that skillset to be filled can be found later. What player and position changes the game day one for the Bills ? That is who you shoot for early in round 1.
