I think he has a # he doesn't want to exceed for CB, and he is sticking to it. I thought Steven Nelson was an option, but he got signed for $5 million a year this week. The biggest shock to me in this draft would be if Beane does not draft a CB in the first 3 rounds. Personally, I think he has something up his sleeve still, worse case something sitting in his back pocket. Beane always has a plan.😉. Patience is a virtue. 🙏. 1 Quote

Some pretty good combine #'s and pro-dat #'s... From what I have been able to read and watch, sounds like a good kid. Possibly a good mid round option?🤔. Any additional input/thoughts? https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/Player/stats/Alontae-Taylor-DB-Tennessee Should be there for us in the 2nd. Him or Taylor-Britt. Quote

Paul Costa Posted April 17, 2022 Posted April 17, 2022 I won’t be surprised if we get Bradberry via a trade. Taylor Britt would be great if not. Bills will get a veteran CB post June 1 if not during draft. Obviously if Booth slides that would be the ultimate. But can’t see that happening. McDermott is strong in this area I’m Trusting The Process here. Quote

They like him. Agreed. I think them looking at CB isn’t about Jackson, it’s about uncertainty around White. My money is they draft a kid who can play CB AND safety. If White comes back and over the next few years shows no ill signs from his ACL, then the rookie stays at Safety where he replaces Hyde or Poyer. If White isn’t the same player athletically, then he moves to safety (where he would be elite as hell) and the rookie stays at CB where he is paired with under-rated-as-hell Dane Jackson. 1 Quote

So it's as good as done, put it in the books. I outscooped Adam Schefter on this one! 😝 Did you had to put on a clean pair of underwear when you woke up ? Quote

I don’t think it’s worst case, I think it’s most likely. Bills struggled badly vs power run teams, even with AJ Klein in the lineup. I imagine they would want to use a base 3 LBs more vs these teams. They have 3 run first teams in the division, and seem to play Baltimore, Indy, and Tennessee every year. Then if they can’t agree on a long term deal with Edmunds, or he doesn’t take the next step this year, boom his replacement is already on the roster. I’d take a round 2 LB who will get meaningful snaps over a 4th string WR, backup RB, 3rd string TE, or 4th OG. 38 minutes ago, John from Riverside said: I would just like to see them over address it just a tad Sign a vet Draft one high Take a developmental one later The developmental guy will get poached off the practice squad and either the vet or rookie sits behind Dane Jackson.

Jackson has done well just to stick on an NFL roster this long, but do we really want a starting tandem of Neal/Jackson week 1? That thought really scares me. I don't want either of those guys taking even 3% of the defensive snaps. I'm sure Beane is working on it, but the situation is severe. That would be far and away the worst starting outside CB's anywhere. Do we draft a CB on day 1? I sure hope so, but that won't be anywhere near enough. We need to address this now. I don't think having 2 rookies starting at outside CB is the answer either. We also don't know when White will be ready, but it will be December at the earliest, I would guess. We also don't know if White will need time to fully recover or IF he will fully recover. I suspect he'll be his old self befotr too long. Put yourself in Beane's seat. What moves would you be trying to pull off that are realistic? I'm looking at the Panthers CB stable and I could see a better CB than Levi shaking loose. Can we afford that? I also like Kyler Gordon, but I don't really follow college football. I know he's scheme versatile and a great tackler. Great short area burst. You thoughts? U realize Jackson has never givin up a TD in his young career ? The kid can play. 1 Quote

Considering their heavy DL concentration in FA, I suspect that's where they put most of the blame for those problems. They're basically a 4-2-5 defense at this point. That R2 LB isn't likely to play all that much barring a trade or injury. Quote

It will be interesting, my friends. OG might be the most likely but I still think LB is a dark horse. Quote

Joe B was on a podcast the other day fully admitting they have spent a lot on defense and it might be time to add long term to the offense. People get too worked up about guys like crowder, Johnson, saffold, and Howard. They are on one year deals and each of those positions can be addressed for the long term… 2 Quote

OG might be the most likely but I still think LB is a dark horse. Don't get me wrong. I think they're likely to draft a LB and might pick a S as well. I just think those positions fit better as day three developmental prospects. I think most of us expect a CB by the end of day 2 at the latest, but overall, I expect this draft will lean toward the offensive side, especially after their DL investment in FA and with a rookie OC. 1 Quote

ALF Posted April 18, 2022 Posted April 18, 2022 It looks like Joe Haden would be the best FA if we could afford him. Quote
