How about WR George Pickens as a darkhorse target for us if we moved up from 57 in the 2nd

The issue I have with all these mocks both by posters here and the "professionals" is it's one person, or one computer doing the picking based on their view of the order the picks should go in. Would like to see 32 of these guys get together and start picking.  Then let see then if any ones board comes close to the order they are actually picked in.  I've seen a few mocks done by maybe 2 or 3 people together, but never more than that.

 

There's a couple of threads about the Bills moving up to some spot to pick someone, again based on one persons mock that the player would even still be available at that spot.

Peter Schrager mocked Quay Walker to the Bills at #25 and said that his mock is based on what he is hearing from teams around the league, not who he thinks teams should take.  That is the first I heard of us taking LB in the first round.  I believe the only way we do this is if we have a trade partner for Edmunds.  He also make the statement that he "guarantees" that Jameson Williams does not go any later than pick #15. He said many teams are very high on him.

 

I assume most would be ok with Walker if we are able to trade Edmunds?

 

Walker’s weaknesses sounds like Edmunds problems

Where is "Our Mock Draft"  On TBD??  How many people are picking? Or are you referring to the different posts from different people all with their own mock?  To me that's just as useless as I'm sure very few have the first 24 picks all going the same.  So who knows who'd really be there available at #25?

OK, saw that thread a few times, saw a name in the post title (currently is set to Logic) now that I think about it yesterday think it was listed MajBobby.  I just always assumed this was Logic's mock draft and there was a thread yesterday with MajBobby's mock and so on.  Guess I never connected the dots so to speak. This does address the concerns I have with most mocks.  Now just need to get the folks at ESN, PFW, SI, etc. to all get together and do the same!

 

Thanks!

No thank you.  Don’t need to extend credit card debt for the next two years.  

It would be terrible to have Josh Allen, not win next year and get progressively worse because we mortgaged those draft choices to go “all in” this year.  

 

No matter how you slice it, you get to the playoffs and you are lucky to have a 60% chance to win each game against the playoff teams in the stacked AFC.  At best you get a first round bye and then have to win 3 straight against very good opponents.  At 60% win probability in each game, the chance to win SB is .6x.6x.6= 22% chance to win it all.  Now, factor in a major injury this year - do you want to go into ‘23 likely losing starting TE and starting MLB and not have first round picks for the next two years?  At that point, you might as well trade Allen for all that you can get, because you’ll have no cap space, lose major contributors and have no top draft picks.

 

I favor the long view - Allen is young and gives you a chance every year for the next 6-7 years if you put decent talent around him.

[ScorpionZero]

I know, I know but would you not take him if he was there.

Troy Anderson is going to play the middle linebacker position and we still have picks 3-7 next year you can very easily find a day one starting TE in round 3 or 4. We really wouldn’t have any holes next year Lewis chine would steps right in for Poyer and can he play hybrid nickel. I understand we haven’t built a dynasty in  the modern age yet but we can’t keep everybody.Teams  pay top dollar for winning players. It is what it is. Poyer Knox and Edmunds are probably gone Oliver too depending on price. We probably will be able to keep one of those. A.J Epenesa highest trade value is probably going to be now because he’s probably not going to get enough minutes. Between Edmonds and Epenesa the capspace  shed would balance out. Could still go get a veteran corner.

You might be right, but I’m not buying.  Allen gives this team a fighting chance every year for the next 7+ years.  I don’t want to throw that away for a low probability to win a SB this year.

The Rams don’t have picks and we still definitely would have more picks than them. So I don’t really think it’s throwing anything away. I just moved up in the draft a lot and got better projected players because honestly any player fourth round or later might not even make the team that’s just how good we are. Not saying players in the later rounds can’t but it’s a lot less likely and we just don’t really have the time to develop anybody right now on the field.  If Lewis chine is the next Poyer Breece hall  is the McKissic Etienne back Mcbeane has bean trying to find everything is good. Regardless if we win a Super Bowl or not but I feel that this would put us in the best position in our best year to see do it but Josh Allen gives you a chance every year for the next 7+

Walker is not a first round talent. No way.

It would be amazing if Hall drops to 89 and the Bills get him there. 

 

Yeah but half of the fans wouldn't be alive to witness it Some would broke their monitors after we passed on him at 57, and the rest would have heart attack after we passed on him at 80.
