They also traded for Diggs the day after they went to his pro day so maybe they hate him too haha. Not a fan. I just do don't see him getting separation at this level. We already have a tall guy with that trait. I think Higgins has big bust potential.

That would be a little smarter.

A lot of WRs will be drafted but only a few are in the upper tier of prospects. Bills did the right thing getting their #1 WR before the draft. This WR class is ridiculously deep. And any scout saying different is blowing smoke. There are two elite prospects who would go Top 5-10 in almost any class: Jerry Jeudy and CeeDee Lamb. Then you have one borderline elite guy, who is sure-shot First Round in Henry Ruggs. After that, you have about 10-12 guys who would deserve 1st Round consideration in almost any year. Many of these guys are getting extra scrutiny and will be pushed down, simply because there are a multitude of other options for WR-needy teams: Laviska Shenault, Tee Higgins, Jalen Reagor, Justin Jefferson, Brandon Aiyuk, KJ Hamler, Michael Pittman, Denzel Mims, Bryan Edwards, Chase Claypool. And then you have dozens of potential sleeper guys, who could slip to Day 3 and be impact starters in the NFL. Van Jefferson, Donovan Peoples-Jones, Tyler Johnson, Antonio Gandy-Golden, Gabriel Davis, etc. I've been following the draft for 30+ years, and I've never seen a class with this much potential.
zevo Posted April 20, 2020 Posted April 20, 2020 I think 100% what Beane did was absolutely the best decision for this team...sure..a year a so down the road, people may say “we could have had X receiver in the 2nd round”..but why even take the risk...get the guaranteed stud on a solid contract.

I didn't think the 2019 class was all that special but then you have Terry McLaurin, Diontae Johnson, Darius Slayton, Hunter Renfrow going in the mid rounds and having sucess, 2020 will have plenty of guys who will be late steals.
PromoTheRobot Posted April 20, 2020 Posted April 20, 2020 So is there anyone you could see the Bills moving up to #31 for?

The 2014 WR Class was the best I could remember, up until this point. Everybody knew that class was going to be fantastic, and for the most part (unless you traded up to #4 to take Sammy Watkins...) it didn't disappoint. Personally, I think this class is stronger at the very top. The 2014 class was a little bit better in the back-half of the 1st/early 2nd. They look to be about the same in the late 2nd Round and early 3rd. This class has more potential on Day 3. If those two classes were merged and re-drafted (based purely on their draft ranking out of college), I think the 1st Round prospects would go something like this: CeeDee Lamb Jerry Jeudy Sammy Watkins Henry Ruggs Mike Evans Odell Beckham Brandin Cooks Kelvin Benjamin Tee Higgins 7 minutes ago, PromoTheRobot said: So is there anyone you could see the Bills moving up to #31 for? I don't think the Bills consider any trade-ups until a player they covet is withing striking distance (meaning 10 or less picks), and they are scared he will not fall. I'm fully expecting them to move around on Friday and Saturday, but they won't be making huge jumps. 2

At 21, I could see SF taking Jefferson to replace Sanders. Then they drop back from 31 to round 2, where they can nab my boy Gallimore to replace Buckner.

The Philly trade makes sense but I just don't think Jefferson there does for the 9ers. I hate him anywhere in round 1 that doesn't already have an established #1 outside guy. I doubt Gallimore gets to round #2. He might not make #31 but that is right in his range IMO.
