Shenault and Pittman would be perfect. Brown & Beasley's age are factors. I’m definitely in favor of 2 wrs (maybe in the 2nd and later after going pass rusher in the 1st). I legit don’t trust their abilities to evaluate receiver at all so might as well take a bunch of chances. 4 hours ago, BuffAlone said: yup...apparently he was directly involved in a tea bagging event? So was Peyton Manning. So that means he will be an all time great. 38 minutes ago, Doc Brown said: No idea. Maybe he drops then Tunsil style. The Tunsil drop was so stupid. I was in charge, I would have drafted him 1st overall. We just used to use snow hats to cover our faces. The gas mask is genius.
thebandit27 Posted February 1, 2020 Posted February 1, 2020 Can’t worry about positional need; gotta fill those in FA. Have to think about who’s the most likely to become an elite player at an impact position like WR, pass rusher, CB, or maybe OT.

The more relevant question is probably who I think will win the SB. My point in my response was that the endless speculation about the draft picks is being made without three of the more important pieces of information. These being which of their own free agents do they sign, which of their players under contract do they release, and which free agents from other teams do they sign. Other posts declare in absolutes that the Bills will do specific things in the draft. IMHO this is ridiculous. I find more value in the posts from people who identify information about some of the hidden gems in the draft that the mainstream sports media misses. To put your analogy in this context, it is tantamount to picking your super bowl winner before the season is played. We all know how valid those kinds of predictions are.

If we really target a wr gonna need to get ahead of the eagles to secure him. JMO I think the Eagles are looking at a pure speed guy like Ruggs or Reagor. They already have big-bodied WRs, their need is completely different than ours.
TigerJ Posted February 2, 2020 Posted February 2, 2020 I'm one of those who thinks a trade up for a WR would be foolish, given the depth of this draft at WR. I would be a little surprised at the Drafttek projection happening (doubling up at WR, but a lot of that will depend on what the Bills do in free agency.

To put your analogy in this context, it is tantamount to picking your super bowl winner before the season is played. We all know how valid those kinds of predictions are. So, long story short.. You’re more worried about being right, than sharing an opinion. Got it. Asking about the Super Bowl winner is no different on September 1st, than it is on January 31st. It is the exact same question. The ONLY difference is that in September, the odds of being correct are 1:32. Where as the odds when we ask you before kickoff of the game, and all players have made it on the field safely, now becomes 1:2. Your answer is the equivalent to saying, “I don’t know who is going to win, because there’s a possibility that an asteroid could slam into the earth before the game, and we would all die, horrible, horrible, deaths.” Did your girlfriend ever ask you if you wanted kids after dating for a while? Was your response, “Bich, how should I know? We’re not even married yet?” Ill stop back later and ask who you think will win the game with .01 seconds left, that way you’ll have all the information you’ll need in order to make an accurate prediction.

Formerly Allan in MD Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 (edited) We really need a linebacker or two, though it doesn't get mentioned that much. If free agency doesn't help in that regard, I'd be surprised if we didn't use one of our top picks on one. Edited February 3, 2020 by Formerly Allan in MD

The latest Drafttek Mock draft had me pondering a couple of possibilities. https://www.drafttek.com/m/2020-NFL-Mock-Draft-Round1.asp Possibility #1 Both Lamb and Jeudy are still both on the board at 10. If you have interest in drafting either, which team do you call, and what do you offer. Yes, most of us are still shell shocked from the Sammy Watkins debacle. But I don’t believe that should make you stop from swinging. Maybe just hope for a bit more luck the next time. Possibility #2 The draft has us taking Shenault in the 1st and Pittman in the second. After thinking about it, I couldn’t say I’d mind that. Both Beasley and Brown are approaching 30. If you have any questions regarding this regimes ability to spot offensive talent, taking 2 wouldn’t be the worst idea in the world. Try to find a couple of OL and a DE in FA somewhere, and try to draft DE/LB next year. What say you? ? I think if that if the draft DID pan out like this in Rd 1. I'd rather trade up ahead of the Eagles and K'lavon and then a WR in the second. 1

I also hope that they re-sign Stanford. He looked decent in place of Edmunds at times, and that would keep 3 non-starters that know the defensive scheme in the fold in Stanford/Thompson/Joseph. Add a solid FA like my boy Elandon Roberts and we’re good to go.
BuffaloRebound Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 Yeah. At no point watching that game last night did I think the Bills need to upgrade their LB corp significantly. What we do need is an elite edge rusher in defense, and on offense we need more physical playmakers and improved OL play.

I will say, it’s probably those 2 specific names that are causing me to lean in that direction. I don’t know what direction I would go in, if one, or neither were available. Probably BPA in a position of need, but we for sure need to come away with at least 1 WR this draft. (Including what happens in FA, because we need youth at the position, as well) What are you doing if one of or both players are off the board? Anyone else you like? Higgins and Jefferson. This wr draft is so ridiculously loaded that you can go in many directions on 1st & 2nd round wr combos. My emphasis is size. I'm looking 6-2 to 6-4 in my selections. 1

With the amount of talent at WR in the 1st and 2nd rd I think a double dip could be the way to go if the right players fall to us. I would be very happy if option 2 happened. 1

If we really target a wr gonna need to get ahead of the eagles to secure him. JMO Higgins is valued too high in many mock drafts. He isn't even a true No. 1 on Clemson. Great program with good players, but I just don't see what makes him a better pro. He will be going up against faster stronger DBs and although he is physical enough for his build, he's not the type of guy that is going to outmuscle for contested balls. I think he is 2nd rounder, just like Justin Jefferson. Both are going to be good players, but if you are looking for either to be your franschise WR that will have a storied career with Allen - I don't think either one is that guy.
