TigerJ Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 I am not an Arcega-Whiteside fan. I think he lacks the athleticism to separate and be successful in the NFL. I'm OK with Gary despite his lack of college production (I think that can be explained by the way he was used. I like Oliver at TE. Last 3 picks? Meh, but at the tail end of the draft you may not get difference makers any way. 5

dollars 2 donuts Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 I could honestly live with this draft. There may be only one definitive starter in the first 3-4, and I always hope for more, but I believe all of the first 6 have the potential to contribute during 2019.

Meh, but at the tail end of the draft you may not get difference makers any way. I like him but I'm not really sure what his upside is. Seems like he's really freakin good at contested catches, specifically fades, but he didn't really do much else at Stanford. As far as athleticism, granted it was a pro-day so take a grain of salt, but he ran a 4.49 40. Definitely didn't look that fast on tape though.
TOboy Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 I don't HATE the first 5 picks, but overall its a pretty Meh draft. 1
NeverOutNick Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 J.J. is a stud and is a perfect compliment for the WRs on our roster right now. I'd be stoked if we got him in the 3rd round
BarleyNY Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 I would hate that draft. I’m not a fan of Gary or Whiteside. 3

ghostwriter Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 The Trayveon Williams pick was nice. Didn't care for the rest. 1
Magox Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 I do not like Rashan Gary as my #9 overall pick. He certainly has the pedigree and athleticism but the production simply isn't there. With that said, if there is something that Beane/McD see in him and they believe they could make him into a good player, I trust their player evaluations specially on the defensive side. I like Arcega, great production, route running ability, hands, 50/50 ability and instincts. I question his ability to get good separation but for a third rounder, I think he'd be a solid pick. The Bills I do believe are going to look for someone with some size at the WR postion this year through the draft and he's certainly an option. 2
Tsaikotic Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 don't know anything about players from rd 5 thru 7 ... whats a DS? ... Gary is a DE, oh and look who NFL.com says he compares to - Ezekiel Ansah, anyways Gary at 9 would leave Bills with no DT to take Kyles place.

Logic Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 Not a fan. The only pick I like is the punter in the 7th. 1

I'd be stoked if we got him in the 3rd round Even if he becomes primarily a red-zone threat and never becomes a starter, if he can provide a good option near the end-zone for lobs it could be worth it. 1
