Roundybout Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 It's probably the third can of Ruby Red Kolsch talking but I'm coming around on this pick. We really needed youth on the line and this kid seems really talented.
Giuseppe Tognarelli Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 McDermott has consistently gone light on CBs and seems confident in his ability to coach them up. It's frustrating, but it seems to be a reality of this regime. 1

Rabble Rabble" Expand Do you think they were both bpa when taken?

Lots of boards have him between 30th and 36th overall. I'm not so sure they came into today saying "we're gonna take another edge". But then they saw Basham sticking out like a sore thumb, and that was that.

And another CB who projects better than Levi. As I said elsewhere, they have have 5 first-round d-line picks (and now 2 second rounders). It’s a bit much in a league where cbs are the most important players in terms of the metrics. Expand As someone else said, don't sleep on Dane! Plus there are still other options. Now Boogie.
Logic Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 I would just like to point out that our new EDGE tandem are called... Boogie and Groot. I'm not sure what else you want out of life. 1 7

BarleyNY Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 I like Basham at 61 a hell of a lot more than Rousseau at 30. Obviously another DE or DL was not what I wanted to see, but I like the value. The strategy OTOH........

All I know is eventually some of them better be good. It wouldn’t aggravate me as much if any of these guys were actually good. Eponessa, Oliver, Harry....these guys have been underwhelming at best. The new nfl is getting the ball out quick. It’s almost impossible to get homes I’d suggest a DE has never been more worthless....I really hope at least one of these guys ends up being good. Expand Good god, did you even watch the superbowl?? 1 1 2

Expand A lot of holes to fill still. Not a bad pick, but too many folks focus on Tampa's ends and forget the pressure Suh and Vea brought up the middle. Not to mention how Tampa could rush 4 and still crush running plays. If our post-season (yep we will be there again) runs into a Titan team with Henry pounding the rock, we will be thankful we have some run-stopping sloberknockers on the line. Just saying.

Expand Yeah, and for that exact reason, we'd all be extra-excited to see him draft and coach up a higher-ranked player with good traits since it's clearly worked out with Tre 1

I’m just a little freaked out that everyone is fixated on the Chiefs when it could very well be the Titans, who could totally rag-doll us physically. Expand Well...stopping Henry and tannehill from running wild might helped by these picks. We aren't beating TN with CBs. 1 1 1

I'm assuming the criteria to determine BPA takes needs into account. A combination of talent and need probably makes them BPA. 2

I believe the exact quote was "he'll start at end, but you'll see him reduce down to the interior on 3rd down". It IS where he got his most sack production at Miami. 🤷♂️ I don't care where guys line up on the DL, so long as they get to the QB. Sack is a sack. Edited May 1, 2021 by Logic 3

NoSaint Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 On 5/1/2021 at 2:18 AM, Hapless Bills Fan said: Did he seriously? Expand makes sense. It would be surprising not to see him kick inside on 3rd and long sometimes unless something goes wrong
DE Bills Fan Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 On 5/1/2021 at 2:00 AM, BillsFan3434 said: Trade jerry for an asset while he's still worth something Expand Your kidding. Right. He was our best pass rusher as well as being one of the leaders on defense. He is also in the last year of his contract so he will be here and lead our D to good things, but probably will be gone in 2022. 2
