I don’t understand the corner crowd. Beane said in his presser yesterday that they thought about one in round two last year but decided they might not beat out Dane Jackson. There were some good ones still on the board at that point as well. 
 

 

There really weren't actually. The 4 true first round corners in last year's class were gone well before we picked.

A look into the draft!

 

We should do everything in our Power to Trade Tremaine Edmunds for a #2/3 pick and use it manoeuvre and navigate in this years draft.  We are so close!!

 

Our top Priority should be LB Devin Loyd from Utah  - We need speed at Linebacker and this guy is a game wrecker!  We would most likely have to trade up 5+ spots to snag him!

 

We should also be looking at Dahan Dotson (WR) from Penn State- He has improved a lot and runs a 4.3  ( I will assume that we may or may not re sign Mckenzie)

 

In addition- another Linebacker in 2nd/3rd round we should be all over is Darrian Beavers- This guy is a beast.

 

WE NEED to get faster PERIOD!  All Bills Mafia are sick of seeing horrendous coverage in the middle of the field by our backers and people running down hill at them all day!  

 

I am ok if we need to give up some additional capital, use the pick for Edmunds to move up if need be...   2/3 of these guys would be unreallll

 

All (3) and I don't see us losing a game next year!   I am serious lol...... 

 

no champagne for the Dolphins in 2022

 

 

 

Folks keep talking about trading Edmunds for a 2nd or 3rd round pick, as though that's just sitting on the table waiting to be done.

 

Who's to say if he has that sort of trade market?!  

 

I'll believe it when I see it.

Its as if some people have recently developed amnesia....are we forgetting how criminally inept our O-line was for a substantial portion of the year?

 

Protect your quarter of a billion dollar investment with at least 2 OL. Anything else would be front office negligence.

The bills have traded their first round pick + to New Orleans for Alvin Kamara

To be fair it’s not just that we need one it’s also a strength of this upcoming draft

Ok…then there should be one later then. This is the argument every year against drafting a WR early.

In the first round yes… But the argument was the second round.

I expect the pick to be the best DL (and likely an Edge Rusher) available.

 

When at first you don't succeed, try, try, try, try, try again, right?

It was a very shallow corner class last year. The number of guys I thought were starters beyond the four first round talents - Surtain, Farley, Horn and Newsome - was very small. They all pretty much got pushed up a round IMO compared to their talent or were very scheme specific. 

 

To be honest this corner class is a bit deeper, but I don't think it is nearly as deep as the receiver class.

The dumb guys in this league trade up; the smart ones trade down.

 

If only it were that simple..... of course it isn't.

If you look at the Bills UFAs, WR, DE, and DT are all areas that need to be addressed. 

 

With Wallace being a FA & White's injury likely push CB up the list of needs.

 

I just think that they go DL, again. At a minimum, it is a safe bet given their track record.

 

It will be interesting to see how FA changes things and what the needs are looking like closer to the draft.

Quote

Since 2017, 35% of Beane’s “draftees” have come from the ACC, and 49% of his “draftees” have come from the ACC, SEC, and AAC.

 

That was a pretty good article and it shows some of the draft trends that Beane has had so far.

Time to embrace it.

 

We have a lot of decision making to do.

I dont follow college close enough to know how good Clark is but sign me up. I've been on the fence about edmunds but after watching what Bolton did to us Sunday, let's draft some competition at the least.

Trevor Penning, Offensive Tackle, Northern Iowa. 

Andrew Booth, Cornerback, Clemson

Chris Olave, Wide Receiver, Ohio State

 

I'm good with any of those. 

 

Why would we take an Offensive Tackle when we have Dion Dawkins and Spencer Brown? We're not going to move either to the bench and we're not going to spend a 1st on depth.

I have addressed it multiple times elsewhere on the board.

This is actually a possibility!   I was thinking of this the other day..... That would be epic

[Turbo44]

Best available CB. Tre was taken at 27, imagine getting another CB even remotely close to as good as tre at 25? Wallace simply isn’t good enough and will be way overpaid (hopefully not by a team that expects him to play a lot of man). Rewatching the last two playoff games, Wallace was really bad.

even vs NE he was bailed out by Hyde on that 1st NE drive

We need better LBs.  Give me Nakobe Dean OLB
