XABI64 Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 Low risk safe pick here. Would have traded down if Hockenson didn't get picked. Lets just all pray Oliver is the next big DT and Hockenson doesn't turn into the best TE of our generation. 1

I see Winovich, Z.Allen as possibilities. no we don't lol. the defense can be fixed next year we need to use the rest of the draft to fix our abysmal offense. if we don't we are looking at another 5-7 win season

njbuff Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 Let's face it.............. going into the 2018 college football season, Ed Oliver was the number draft prospect for the 20`9 NFL Draft. We would have been ecstatic in September of 2018 if the Bills had the number one overall pock in 2019 and had our hands on Ed Oliver. Flash ahead to April 2019, we should all be thrilled that the Bills got him at 9th overall. Let's hope it all works out. And with McDermott and the talent around him, we can't think of anything else but the sky being the limit for this kid. We shall see.

My issue is that we were two picks from Josh Allen. We could've used a 4th to trade up and had him. To be that close..... We lost Allen and Hock back to back. I'm having a hard time with that. Lets take small steps and put this in perspective for you.. ALLEN, HOCK and OLIVER is on your top 3 big board.. Your happy with any one of them right? do you move and loose picks or stay put? I stay put. We got Ed Oliver.. he will be good.. get over it/yourself 1
DefenseWins Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 Here is what PFT says about "ED" among other things... I don't know if Beane has a horseshoe up his butt or not but I am so glad that Gettleman is NOT the Bills GM! I think that finally the Bills have the right mgt team and coach running the show! If only the Sabres were so fortunate...
ghostwriter Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 Oliver was considered a top 3 pick leading up to the draft and he seems legitimately pumped to be here. I'm happy he's here.

He was part of a defense that virtually shut down the Patriots. The reason the why the Rams lost was because of offensive ineptitude not because of their stellar defense. If Goff wasn't so confused that game was easily winnable. Edited April 26, 2019 by Green Lightning
BillsFan4 Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 “How the Bills can turn Ed Oliver into the special pass rusher he was meant to be” https://www.sbnation.com/nfl/2019/2/21/18232987/nfl-draft-2019-ed-oliver-buffalo-bills-scouting-report-breakdown-pass-rusher sprry if this was already posted. Good read.

I watched them both at the draft and for some reason QW looked about 5 years younger than Ed. Like a kid vs a man. Anyone else get that impression? Again may be meaningless and QW is a great player and person, I am not knocking him. It just stood out. he definitely looks like a kid. 1

Beginning of round 2 is probably where they should be going. You could be right but I think his tackling issues were the result of not wanting to lose millions of dollars ironically causing him to lose millions of dollars. His effort will improve in the pros I suspect.
Steve O Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 I was pretty psyched once the draft got to 7 and Oliver, Allen, and Sweat were all left. Guess Sweat's falling to the bottom of round 1 means not everyone believe's reports about his heart were false.
