Jordan Addison, Quentin Johnston, Rashee Rice, Josh Downs, Zay Flower, Jalin Hyatt. I’d take any of them. 
 

Not sure many of these guys are top15 picks so we might be sitting in a sweet spot to have our choice of a few of them. 

 

Considering our history, I would stay away from any one named "Zay"

Kiper is never right so I approve of this…

 

 He was right about Josh and went to bat for him. Besides that I think he’s like every other so called "draft expert". But I'll always be a little more tolerant of him because he believed in Josh from the very beginning.

of thst guy is the BPA I can handle it.  I can’t handle reaching for a position of need which has resulted in numerous failures for Bean.

I think Mel gets paid by the player’s publicity team to hype their player up the draft chart.

I'll first wait to see who they re-sign and what players in free agency they sign.

Looks like solid WR2’s will be on the board when we pick. Trade up for Johnson? - mm or hope JSN falls?   Hyatt, Flowers, addison, downs and Dell have speed.  Rice and Odunze have size and explosiveness.  parker Washington is a bowling ball rac guy.  One of those guys should be there in rd 2.  I’d prefer taking a WR rd 1 but I don’t know if the value will be there.  

Thank you for this.  I'm familiar with Parker Washington being a Penn State fan.  I just saw, I think a CBS sports mock that has the Bills taking O'Cyrus Torrence, G from Florida.  They mentioned him on that same broadcast in conjunction with the Senior Bowl.  Is the better depth at interior OLine or WR in this draft?

Mel had him listed as an olb. They didn’t speak on the pick. Probably to replace Edmunds. That should make some here pretty happy. 

Cool, we're moving to 3-4 defense. 

[RiotAct]

Who the **** is Mel Kiper?!?

[gjv]

I think the draft pick that could help the Bills the most is Bijan Robinson. I'm hoping that we are lucky enough to have him fall to us. GO BILLS!!!!!!!!!

Im gonna be pissed if any of our first two days picks are for defense.

 

The pitchforks and knives will be heading to Beane's house if they are.

Why would I be upset about drafting another Dlineman? When we clearly haven’t got production out the position? We should give up and just draft a WR. Then hopefully when playoff time comes Mahomes Burrow and company will twist an ankle, and will be able to get him faster.

You might also be wary of him because of his last name. We didn't do too well with that either........

Now THERE was a horrible draft pick!

[DCOrange]

It makes sense in terms of addressing needs, but as I mentioned before, it would be incredibly frustrating considering we’ve addressed this exact need several times now while forgoing many other needs.

They need to build around Allen. Focus on the OL this draft. Allen is taking too many hits/sacks. Better OL means better run game (with the RB's not Allen doing the running) and better pass protection. Give Allen more time to throw and that will help create more big plays in the passing game.

A double negative makes Zay Flowers a positive

They need to build the offensive line, run the ball more and scheme better. That’s the problem with the Bills offense. Daboll had zero problems working with these weapons. They added Hynes and couldn’t even figure out a way to get him involved in the offense. That’s a coaching problem

Mel, had him listed as an obit...

Not necessarily criticizing Kiper, the sentence just sort of suggested itself. 🤔😁

Tis the season where everyone gets mad at a mock draft 

[MrEpsYtown]

I mean, they just played a game in which one of their biggest issues was getting to the qb (who they didn't touch). So for him to match us up with an edge guy is a response to that, which makes some semblance of sense. I figured he'd go O-line, but I also think he knows that this regime is not going to draft a guard in the first round. It just isn't happening. Right now we are probably looking at WR or defensive player in my opinion. I could see they taking the RB if he falls. Would not be my favorite move, but he is a game breaking player. I could also see them taking one of those left tackles if they fall. But I can tell you with confidence, it is not going to be a guard and very unlikely to be a RT.
