RyanC883 Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 Would love to add Love at RB. Also would like J. James in FA, and a TE in the draft. Great #1 Receivers do come in all sizes (Megatron v. AB, for example). 1
IgotBILLStopay Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 (edited) any video link? Beane always says more than McD:) like when he revealed what the terms of the agreement were with Denver on draft day for #5 pick. Ok found a radio link https://wgr550.radio.com/media/audio-channel/02-28-brandon-beane Edited February 28, 2019 by IgotBILLStopay 1

Wouldn't mind seeing them use a 3rd to 5th round pick on a highly touted RB. i agree. i just don't like the idea of shady/ivory being the guys going into next year. i wouldn't mind if if they used a high pick on a rb at all.
JimKellyTryouts Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 With our top two RB's contracts running out, I fully expect us to draft a guy as early as round 3. I wouldn't expect WR to be our first pick unless it's a trade back and board value, because I fully believe Beane when he says he'll take the BPA.
BillsSbSoon Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 Pretty interesting what he said about the TE spot. Could be a smokescreen or he just told us hes going to sign one in free agency 1

2020 Our Year For Sure Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 I think the first pick is going to be either OL or DL.

They only have one under contract and he’s backup level.
IgotBILLStopay Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 Summary of Beane Press Conference 1. Good Conversations with Jordan Phillips reps 2. Ken Dorsey as QB coach: worked well with Cam. Similarities between Cam and Allen 3. Sleep better in 2019 with QB set. Allen was behind last year since he couldnt get reps with #1 for quite a while. This year TC etc. will be better for Allen 4. No set measures or type for #1 WR. All sizes / shapes just looking for someone Josh Allen can count on. 5. Scouting Combine: Bills have 60+ interviews. Will concentrate on medicals and personality. 6. Would like more people invited to combine. Some disciplined uninvited players still at combine for medical / interviews 7. Metcalf: heck of a career - dont want to put a label on him 8. TE situation: First look at FA, then draft. Look at blocking and receiving. Depth in draft. But some development opportunities for the young TEs. 9. 20 hr rule in NCAA - college teams are signaling to receivers - so receivers are less ready - so evaluation on whether they can correct mistakes 10. Defensive Front has depth in draft. Receivers too. But all round strong draft class. 11. Talked about how Robert Foster developed technically and raved out about his drive. Foster has been around Buffalo a lot (in the offseason as well) 12. Spencer Long: Watched Spencer last year too. Has experience and versatility. Not slotting him at a spot yet. Is there for competition. 13. About hole on offensive line: we can bring back some people from last year or not. We are focused on OL and there is depth in the draft on Oline. 14. Harrison brought depth last year. Will compete for starting spot. But will be on the look out for a FA as well. 15. RB: another position where they will look. But feel good about Lesean and Chris - though they will add competition if someone good is available. 16. UDFAs good not just at RB (like Lindsay). Looking to hit on at least one or two later round picks. 17. Tyrod was not a franchise QB. So needed to do trades to get a franchise QB. McD screwed it up a bit by making the playoffs:), but still managed to get Josh Allen. Last year was the best opportunity for a rookie QB. 18. If you dont have a franchise QB, cant have sustained success. That is why McB focused on that first. 5 1 15

I am 90% certain we will take a DL at this point, most likely a DT. 1

It’s not a highly discussed need but there will be some really good backs available in the 4th and 5th and we need to take one.
ProcessAccepted Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 Thanks @YoloinOhio for posting all these. I hadn't had the chance to keep up with what's happening at the combine. Man I love all the disinformation that GM's spread between now and the draft. As a fan it's one of my favorite times of the year. Had to laugh at all the positions that there was a lot of depth at in this years draft ? 1
