dubs Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 Oliver was thought of as the top player in the draft before the season started. It’s a great outcome. Very happy Beane didn’t panic and let the board come to him. 7
Heitz Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 Quote @SalSports Good stuff from Brandon Beane. Said in all their mocks, never had Oliver falling to them if only 1 QB was taken in top 8, had him sometimes falling if 2 QBs were taken. Was usually there if 3 QBs. Also said they thought a team could trade to 8 and take him once he got there.

I also think the Bills had opportunity to trade back (based on what Shefter said on ESPN) but when Oliver fell, they didn't want to move. Very well possible. I wouldn't have trade back if I were them 1

Good job, and thanks to the Raiders for continuing their tradition of screwing things up. Agreed. So, are we done for the night? Beane/McD jawing with the press means no ones on the phone.. 1

Does anyone think his size will be an issue? I didn’t watch a lot of him in college. I heard today they used him as a NT in a 3-4 this year and it caused him have an understandable drop off in production. Will he be big enough to play an effective 3 tech in the nfl? he looks a lot like Aaron Donald to me. Not super big but thick with great quickness and great first step.

wiseman3 Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 I have a feeling we're not done....trade back up for Metcalf or Fant? Lets go! 2

Let’s hope he is the next Darned LD which is asking a lot. I agree with a couple of earlier posters we don’t need 9 more guys after acquiring 17 in free agency. Package some to get more talented guys. As Al Davis used to say “Just win baby”. 17 or 19?https://www.buffalorumblings.com/buffalo-bills-nfl-free-agency-2019/2019/3/7/18254679/buffalo-bills-2019-free-agent-rumor-signing-tracker-news-contract-trade-ziggy-ansah-antonio-brown Regardless, could be the craziest offseason in Bills history!

BillsGuru4 Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 Great pick! I played a game with my buddies; who do you want us to draft, who do you predict we draft, and who don’t you want us to draft. Winner of the prediction gets rounds of shots. I went oliver, oliver, metcalf

I’m with you on the need for a real playmaker on offense; however, I think Oliver was the right pick at 9. I think Beane is going to try to to find that playmaker late in the 1st / early 2nd - or maybe even through a trade.

Interesting. At first I was going to say you are nuts. But then I checked the stats. Their listed weights are the same. Oliver is 2 inches taller. Donald looks much thicker that Oliver especially in the shoulders and arms. Somehow I think Oliver is closer to 270-275 when playing but bulked up for the combine and Donald is closer to 295 now. But if Oliver is 3/4th the player DOnlad is he will be a force.
