Bs. Jermane Johnson was a round 1 player for them? 

Beane just clarified.  They had other players with a first round grade but not at positions of need.

I'll have to defer to McD and Beane on this one. Anyone with a pair of eyes would have picked Booth. But maybe that's why we are home and they are kings.

Don't like Clemson players, not at all, not for the Bills. The team got better tonight.

They won't have enough this year but it gives them structure for maybe a go at a better QB class next year.

I think the opposite. If Zach isn’t the answer then nailing a draft this year actually hurts their ability to get a top Qb next season.

He was likely off the board for character

Im laughing at all these arm chair GMs who act like their mock drafts would have created a better team than what we have right now.  Oh no Beane didnt take who I had next on my list that I made looking at youtube videos and amateur scouting reports online after I got done with my day job! Are you guys serious? Do you remember the last 20 years?

Thank you very muchly!!!!!

 

Allen sux!!!!  Tre Sux!!!!  Sheesh.....trust the foocking process for crying out loud!!!!

Really? Seemed like a nice guy. 

 

Charlie Campbell reported this week that character concerns were the reason for him leaving Georgia and moving to FSU

Explanation doesn’t make much sense. If he’s only taking a corner then it does. He may have nailed the pick but being locked into a position took a bunch of good players off the board. 

They were only taking a corner.

That’s not how the Bills build their draft board.  There are embedded pieces that talk about this.  They don’t limit it to one position.

 

If you believe Beane, then yes, they didn’t have a first round grade on Johnson

That makes sense.

[Nitro]

Greg Cossell gave a precise evaluation on Elam.  He will fit in very well opposite Tre.  4.39 speed and is a physical CB.  Beane and his team has one of the best draft records.  Armchair GMs can moan and groan but the facts speak for themselves.

how many picks do they have left?

[RyanC883]

Lloyd and Allen will be a beast combo

[frostbitmic]

Didn't the Bills just meet with or talk to Elam in the last couple of days ?

 

[buffblue]

All this talk about the Jets, I should hope they upgraded their team with 3 first round picks. It would be a problem if the consensus was anything else.

 

Time will tell and they appear to have done well, but I am hardly worried...

[78thealltimegreat]

Thank God Devin Lloyd isn’t going to the Pats guy is a game wrecker

If THIS is litterally the biggest complaint you have about buffalo bills football these days then is this really worth complaining about? SuperBowl contenders bc of the GM, but heaven forbid we use the draft as intended to fill a need... you are right.... total clown show...

Ease up fella. No need to get upset. I would hardly say I was complaining.. just stating that our hands seem to have been tied and teams somewhat knew it. 
I’m baffled that my comment triggered you that much. I’m a huge Beane supporter and I trust the guy, but I saw this exact scenario coming from a mile away. 
 

Is what it is. We needed a corner.
