njbuff Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 Do you think they are waiting out Ansah? Or do you think they will trade for Frank Clark or Clowney? Or will they just go with what they have, if they don't draft a pass rusher?
Gugny Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 Bills will draft the best pass rusher in the draft. Just watch. 4
Bangarang Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 I think it’s a near certainty that our 1st pick will be someone for the DL 1 1

Once the draft starts, Ansah wont be a Bill if he wasn't already. 2. I seriously doubt they trade for Clowney. I do think Frank Clark is a possibility though, just reports seem to suggest we aren't interested, so seems like a low possibility. 3. I think if we stay at 9 we will certainly pick an EDGE rusher over say one of the DTs. Although I also still wouldn't rule out a weapon for Josh. 4. I think plan A is to trade down. 4
Dkollidas Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 I agree that they’ll draft a defensive lineman in the 1st. The talent at the top, both edge and interior, is elite. A guy like Christian Wilkins is usually a consensus top-10 to 12 pick as an interior guy. This year he might go towards the end of the first round. They built up their offense in free agency so they could go BPA in the 1st Round. If they can get their hands on an Ed Oliver, Montez Sweat or Christian Wilkins, I think they’re taking it. 1
Augie Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 I’m convinced they will trade down. And up. I just don’t know when, and for whom. You’re welcome. 4 4

Formerly Allan in MD Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 They'll draft a pass rusher. It may not be in the first round, if that's what you're hoping for. 1
Logic Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 Hearing Beane talk today at owner's meetings has me thinking for the 1st time that they may NOT pick a defensive lineman in the first round.

hemma Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 I think Ansah’s shoulder is still healing and they will re-evaluate next month, before the draft.

I think if they don't draft a pass rusher, they are either trading for Clowney or pretty set on getting Ansah (I think it also means they did not sign OG Spain in FA)
NoSaint Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 I think they will go BPA. I think few, if any, moves in free agency will change that evaluation. Without actually listing names and individual odds- i guess id say it’s about 33% edge rusher, 33% DT and 33% the field if trying to project what’s bpa at 9
CaptnCoke11 Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 I’m hoping for an edge player or DT. They can snag a good tight end in the second or third. 2

I think beane feels little pressure because of his injury status (kind of a moderate risk high reward but not required piece) and Ansah would pick the saints if the Quinn trade doesn’t work. No shade here. Just a shot at a ring and some more pieces on the line with him so he’s less of a focal point. It’ll be interesting to see where these couple of pieces land.
Max Fischer Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 One thing is for certain, whoever the Bills pick, most people will be wrong. 1

Florida Bills Fanatic Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 When you watched McD's defense in Carolina, they generated a lot of pressure on the pocket from the d-tackles, especially from K. Short. I think he places a lot of value in that. The Bills were not able to generate that pressure consistently in 2018. With Kyle Williams gone, they have even less talent now. I have a feeling that the Bills will try to add that skill set to the defense with pick #9. There are several outstanding d-tackles in this draft. 1
