So this is his job, so to speak. I believe he wrote on here that he retired and was able to really cover TC at SJF every day. That was a couple of years ago and before he stopped posting here regularly. I check in on his Dreaftek picks around this time of year. He knows his subject matter.

And you think they’re interested in getting reports from him on where their scouts have been?

What threw me off big time last year was that they never went to see Josh Allen play live. Unless it was uncredentialed. They saw Darnold 2x and Beane and Schoen went to see Rudolph. They saw Allen play like 2 or 3 times. I remember seeing people talk about them never going but there were actually reports out there of the few games they went to see Wyoming play.

We found one report right before the draft about them being at one Wyoming game. Didn’t say who was there, just said Bills. A couple months ago Beane did an interview and referred to a game he attended.

Unfortunate injury that derailed his senior season but if he's available in the 5th would love to take a flier on him.
Lofton80 Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 Bars was thought of as ND's best lineman prior to injury. They could also have been watching Dexter Williams, the underrated WR Miles Boykin or LB Drew Tranquil who can play multiple positions and is a good special teams player.
YoloinOhio Posted February 21, 2019 Author Posted February 21, 2019 (edited) From Astro: Since the last week in August, credentialed scouts for the Bills have seen a plethora of WRs in live games. Eighteen of them declared for the draft, and are listed here. I’ve attempted to rank order the WRs’ relative performances vs the given opponent and link you to cued-up video of the player in most games. Remember that teams get access to full game film of every game, but the weight of the scouts’ opinions may bear on the selection of a new wide receiver –or two– for the Bills in April. I’ve boldly and foolishly added the round and pick he’d be available to the Bills (my pre-Combine guess). http://billsmafia.com/2019/02/21/ranking-bills-scouted-receivers-nfl/ Edited February 21, 2019 by YoloinOhio
