Yeah it was made clear on Thursday night by our esteemed TSW Opinion Control Managers that any pick in the 4th round or later was pretty much worthless? 

 

I think we should credit McBeane for the picks and welcome them to Buffalo, but be sure to remind them their stay will be brief.  Sad.

Robert Woods clone?

McKenzie’s replacement for next year with a year to learn the ropes.  Great pick.

Shakir can carry the ball if Dorsey wants to get creative. 71 rushes at Boise

So you actually believe the Bills are going to sign Julio or Landry?

 

OK, I guess

I think you posted a similar suggestion in the Elam thread, with regard to the CB position. Can't tell if it's just to spur conversation or what. In any event, I'm not expecting a big name addition.

We were very interested in Landry when he became available. Didn’t sign due to his $ demand. That could change if he accepts less.  I’m not a big fan of his, but it would be interesting

Well Joe Haden is about the only successful Florida Gator CB.  We like to bring in a Vet CB. He’s friends with Von who openly said he’s been recruiting Haden. Elam went to Florida. Seems like a match…. IF Haden is okay not being a full time starter

I can't imagine it. But OK.

He’s had some injuries and average QB play. Is one of the best blocking WR’s and gets open. Very competitive. He could thrive here

No, you're probably right. He'd be THRILLED being the 3rd WR (as you have him) or 4th option for Josh. Making WAY less than he has been and likely thinks he's worth. No I can't see any issues there.

Depends: Does he want 100 targets and more $  or 60-70 targets with a great shot at a ring

Nope.

 

Woods has longer arms and deeper pockets (subsequently).

I've looked and I can't find anything negative about this pick anywhere. I'm not trying to be a downer, I'm just curious why he fell to the 5th, especially in a draft with an early run on WR. I love the pick as does seemingly everybody else in the universe. Some mocked him going late 2nd, so what's the catch if any? Did we just completely luck out?

[gobills404]

Someone probably posted this already but just in case. Absolute filth. It may be where he ends up playing the most but he’s more than just a slot guy.

FWIW

I think he becomes the 4th wr very quickly.  Outside and slot back up.  He will be the steal of the draft imo.  Maybe not a superstar but he will be solid.

With what money are we going to make the signing my bet is that we are going to find a sign of veteran defensive back before we sign another high profile wide receiver

I watched a lot of Khalil shakir last night and I know who he reminds me of. Robert Woods. 
 

edit: I see I’m not the first one to say this!
