intimidatortj Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 (edited) A source tells http://Syracuse.com that Buffalo held a private workout with Colorado State TE Trey McBride. https://newyorkupstate.com/buffalo-bills/2022/04/source-buffalo-bills-hold-private-workout-with-2022-nfl-drafts-top-tight-end.html #BillsMafia This is a private workout, as opposed to a Pre-Draft 30 Visit. A Pre-Draft 30 Visit is held at One Bills Drive and no physical workouts are allowed. A "private workout" must be conducted at the prospect's home school, i.e. Colorado State. And, teams can put the prospect through drills/workout. The Bills previously met with McBride either or both at the Combine and Senior Bowl, per reports. IMO Trey McBride will get drafted somewhere between the middle to bottom of the 2nd round. Edited April 11, 2022 by intimidatortj 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atomicpwrd Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 Seems we are looking at higher end TEs. I wonder if they are protecting themselves in case we can't afford Knox. I hope not because it takes a while to develop a TE, and Knox is a good one now. 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First Round Bust Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 I cant see us drafting a TE in the second or trading up in the third round for one unless he is the second coming of a freak like Knox..but we can say this for multiple future "need" positions as well...S and RB come to mind if we move on from Poyer or Zack Moss this season and Singleton next season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dopey Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 I would be happy with picking him in the 2nd round. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but they seem like higher round picks which we need for more pressing needs this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shake_My_Head Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 IMO, TE2 is covered by Howard this year. McBride would be a great addition, but only if Beane trades down and gets another 2nd or a high 3rd to add him with a few other top 100 picks. Otherwise, it'd be a bit of a luxury pick versus other positional depth / re-stocking needs for 2023+. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsbackto81 Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 If they can get any production out of the 1 year deal OJ Howard got him and Knox is a nice TE combo. That's what I love about Beane, due diligence always. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapeBreton Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 If all the good WR are gone in the first round, I'd be OK with taking a receiving tight end in the 2nd. McBride is pretty awesome too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have done Pre-Draft Visits or private workouts with: TE Trey McBride (2nd Rd), Isaiah Likely (2nd-3rd Rd), Cade Otton (3rd Rd), Cole Turner (3rd Rd). They also may have done a meeting with Charlie Kolar (3rd-4th Rd) Knox's contract is up next year. So is OJ Howards and Tom Sweeney. If Knox and his agent want a deal at $12 million a year for 4 years, the Bills might have to decline and go with a younger, cheaper player. Not ideal, but the Cap makes you made hard choices sometimes. PS The Bills have had Pre-Draft Visits and meetings with a number of safeties too. So it could be safety in the 2nd round and tight end in the 3rd. We will see. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
