NickelCity Posted April 24, 2020 Posted April 24, 2020 I think the value will be at WR when we pick. Hope we pull the trigger. We've got no depth there. 1

There is no WR we draft that is moving into Diggs, Browns or Beasley's spot. You may find a RB to unseat Singletary but do we want to or do we just want a compliment? The smart money would be to continue to build the offensive and DL, also the corner position. the edge rusher thing make sense... we dont need another corner tho. we need TD's.

The best part of Lamb not making it to 22 is we don't have to spend the next four months listening to the ridiculous concept that a team built to make a run now -- a team primarily lacking a true 'must be accounted' for #1 receiver -- could have had a guy who is is unknown in the NFL and will have an undermined learning curve INSTEAD of a young guy who is a proven, viable, hungry, must-be-accounted-for receiver. I swear sometimes I think fans just want to catch management making bad decisions so they have something else to whine about. 2

Well, Diggs is the CB I'd like to take in the 2nd, but I'm more fond of a WR or DE. I think we can find a RB in later rounds that we can use... but I'm not so sure we could find a Mims or Claypool in later rounds (esp. Mims). 1

Agree to disagree then, the Diggs trade was management saying he will be the X-Factor that takes us over the top. No 4th WR or backup RB are making a huge impact. How is CB2 not a need? Wallace took a step back, Norman is 100 years old and got torched in Washington and Gaines hasn't played well since he left here which was some years ago, I'd say it's always good to draft corners. 1

The bills defence last year was miles ahead of the offence, statistically. Diggs is a big pick up but we can only imagine what this offence is capable of. I think with the 2nd round pick you need to draft offensively to secure your investment and that should be a no-brainer.
Prickly Pete Posted April 24, 2020 Posted April 24, 2020 (edited) The Bills basically have the RB's alternate each series...having both a 1 and a 1A running back will keep their options open for every series start. It would be the easiest way to improve the offense. They had Frank Gore out there for 370 plays last season....it boggles my ***** mind. Now picture 370 plays with say, JK Dobbins (and most others with Devin Singletary). Big improvement, methinks. And a nice insurance policy if one of them goes down with an injury. Two is the way to go. Edited April 24, 2020 by 32ABBA 2

Corner isn't a flashy pick but the NFL is becoming more and more of a passing league every year. Stocking up on corners isn't a bad idea.

It's all relative to value but I would also like to point out that this is a deep WR class and RB's could be found in round 4. If a good value is there at DE or CB I would rather take that and then draft a WR in round 3. 1
BillsMafia13 Posted April 24, 2020 Posted April 24, 2020 I think for the first time ever id want a rb. A power rb would boost the offense more than a 4th wr but I’d still want singletary as the feature so who knows. Our position is a good problem to have

I think Akers will be there at 54. Dobbins, Taylor and Swift I think will be gone fairly soon in round 2. Edited April 24, 2020 by CaptnCoke11 1 1

That sounds like it could be fun! Find an impartial service that will rank the top 220-ish players and let them pick their team in order by round. Teams can trade to give them extra chances in a round, but then the top player picks his choice of teams in round 1 until player 32 picks the last team with a slot in the round. Then it repeats fore all 7 rounds. It would be interesting to see how the players would choose their destinations.

IF WR is so deep, then a back up WR can be found in the 3rd round. 1 hour ago, CaptnCoke11 said: Yeah RB2 is sticking out like a sore thumb to me.

Dobbins, Taylor and Swift I think will be gone fairly soon in round 2. I want another good or better running back, so we get more rushing yardage, RB receiving yardage and TD's from that position. We also need a guy who can drive the other team crazy by getting chunks of yardage in the passing game when Diggs and Brown get something like double coverage and stretch out the field. I think they are looking for a couple of starters or near starters in 2020 or guys with crazy potential. I think they would be happy with 3 solid draft picks. (I'm counting Diggs as a drat pick). Helare is off the table with KC's #32 pick. I don't think that Swift, Taylor nor Dobbins is going to be there at #54 for the Bills. Miami, Tampa and the Steelers (or another team) will probably take them with picks at 39, 45 & 49. We could trade up with the Jests to 48, which would cost our 4th and 5th round picks, in order to get ahead of the Steelers. (note that there are a lot of comp picks after the 3rd and 4th rounds https://www.drafttek.com/nfl-trade-value-chart.asp). If we don't get one of these top 3, then there is no reason to reach in the 2nd round. Moss, Allen or 4 or 5 other guys will be around to figure out how to get in the 3rd round. I think Akers would be too much of a risk at #54, unless we traded down in the 2nd. Maybe we could also trade up from our 3rd round to get two picks in the 50-60 range.

Buffalo Barbarian Posted April 24, 2020 Posted April 24, 2020 Just want say a nice FU to KC for taking my running back, Clyde Edwards Helaire. I thought he was the best back out there even though he was ranked 5th and was hoping we could get him in the second. Guess Andy holds the same view, that bas****d. 5 hours ago, ExWNYer said: He will be great in that offense. He would have been great in our offense. 1

There are good RB's in this draft that can excel with the Bills. There is absolutely no need whatsoever to be mad that CEH is not available. You should be very happy if one of the other 4 slip to the Bills and the Bills take em. But that doesn't mean the Bills will take a RB at 54, even if one of them are there. The Bills are actually in a good position to do whatever the heck they want in this draft and still come out smelling like a rose. 1
