I noticed that too. I think they are players who could be there at 40. And I could see them taking a CB there if that’s how the board fell. 

I am a little perplexed about selecting a CB so high.  I understand BPA, and that you can't have too many CBs.  But I put the Bills biggest issues to address-stopping the run, QB pressures, and protecting Josh.  CB does little to remedy those issues.  We are already deep at CB with Tre, Taron, KJ, EJ, Levi, Lewis, and Pitts.  CB is not the problem with our D.  We need DE, LB, DT before CB IMO.  If we trade back and have extra picks, I am ok with selecting a CB if the value is there.  But we are better utilizing our draft assets on many other positions IMO.  I'm hoping for 3-4 starters from Beane's draft day maneuvers'

One benefit of fortifying our already strong secondary is that Josh will hone his skills against possibly the best secondary in NFL.  The training camp battles will make Josh and our WRs much better.  It's all about competition, and improving whichever position that you can

The fact that KJ and EJ are on one year deals, are both incredibly injury prone, and they aren’t sold on Levi at outside CB2 (and he won’t be able to do anything to change that before the draft) makes me think it’s in play - along with the late 1/round 2 CBs they are looking at. I don’t know if I necessarily agree with it. I also could see them waiting and taking one later given McD’s gold touch on young CBs. I would be very surprised if they don’t take one at all. I don’t put much into Taron Johnson given he’s pretty much slot only. The rest are depth.

I feel like that's something very few people consider: the dawgs you're up against day in and day out, in practice, can really  benefit you, if they're good. Great point!

I love the idea of drafting Ed Oliver and Khalen Saunders. Ed Oliver at 3Tech replaces Jyle Williams and Khalen Saunders takes over for Star.
