If Beane likes him, I love him

 

I agree...

 

If Beane likes him enough to pick him at 9 then everyone should get excited...

 

Just don't whaley it up and trade up for him..

You take him

I'd respectfully challenge you on all those points.  If you want to argue limited route tree, health, etc., I think you'd have a better argument.

 

Metcalf doesn’t run good routes other than a go. He is pretty special at that route though. Feel free to prove me wrong though.

If he is BPA - you take him, but he will not be BPA at 9 there is almost no way with his production and agility numbers.  If he is BPA when we are picking it means we probably moved back in a trade.

You draft him, unless you rob another club and trade down.

If he's the BPA on the Bills board at #9, their scouts need to be fired, because it means they got enamored by his combine stuff instead of watching him on film.  If he's picked before #9 I'll cheer because it will mean the Bills can't take him.

BPA is in the eye of the beholder. If Oliver, Jonah and DK are all sitting there @9, who is really the BPA.  And what analytics guarantees that selection.  You have to factor some need into your decision.  What if Kyler Murray drops to 9? And the "Big Board" says he's BPA. Do you run out and draft him? Of course not!   BPA is subjective.

He would be a nice security blanket for Josh, just don't know if he'll be the best talent on the board at 9.

He's not in the top 9 so he won't be BPA at pick 9.  Frankenstein runs better agility drills.

Google Ole Miss OC and/or offense.  You'll see why...

i agree i don't even think hes the best WR of the class. I may be in the minority but hes got bust written all over him

He wasn't even the best WR on Ole Miss. All the physical skills, but his mental lapses led to drops.

I don’t think he is a bad prospect. I have said before that he has Randy Moss potential. I do think he is one dimensional though. 

 

Also, his three cone time confirmed most of the concerns about his change of direction.

Taking a guy like Metcalf at #9 is exactly what old Bills regimes would've done. We are not that organization anymore. 

 

I really don't think any team aside from maybe the Raiders values him in the top half of the first round.

He won't be.  Being able to change direction is very important for a WR.  He's not a top 10 player in this draft, therefore he can't be BPA at #9.

Then he’s BPA.

 

It will be a mistake, but if that’s how the Bills FO sees it, nothing we can do about it. They’ll be hoping that his physical traits will payoff down the line combined with their ability to coach him into being a weapon at the WR position.

 

Because as far as that goes, his Ole Miss teammate AJ Brown is the far superior player.
