I enjoyed this:

 

 

He was one of the 4 guys I listed in the 1st round, that I absolutely had to have…👍

 

Funny thing is, I just watched a crap ton of his highlight videos last night, and I don’t know how it’s possible, but he looked even more amazing than the first time…

 

With the defense doubling Diggs, this guy’s gonna eat like crazy! 👍

Seriously wondering how the ***** he dropped to us 

Just happens in the draft sometimes, based on positional need etc. We were probably helped by the run on WR’s, among other things. But it is not like other TE’s got valued ahead of him, he was still viewed as TE #1.

 

Despite the cost, I am so happy that Beane moved up and got him.

Oh yes.....   Sleeper fantasy pick as well...  LOL.  I might win my keeper league on this one.  haha

Kincaid will be a much better pass catcher than Knox. 

Already is…👍

If Dorsey can actually game plan and call an offense with 2 TEs then I like the pick.  If not then it was a waste of two picks.

That's 50%. The other half is Allen throwing to people not named Diggs.

New draftee and FA first questions list:

 

1. Tell us the Buffalo culture is like family...? 

 

2. Tell us how awesome the state of the art weight room is...?

 

3. Tell us you love blue cheese...?

Talked to my brother who is a Utahite

Not to pick nits, but "Utahite" is a mineral, a residentr of Utah is a "Utahn." That always stuck with me because it just looks and sounds weird.

 

Heartening to hear about how disappointed everyone who is not a Bills fan is in the Bills making Kincaid the pick at 25OA.

Anyone else think Kincaid and Shorter could be interchangeable? Similar size and speed.

If you told me, I was getting TJ Hockenson at 27 I would be super excited

To me Hockenson looked good but not elite.  In the same class as Knox. Thought the Vikings were forcing it to Hockenson to convince themselves they won the trade.

So basically, in terms of where he’ll be lined up and asked to do, he’s essentially a Mark Andrews clone.

 

I think I'd be fine with Mark Andrews production from that position.

Too crude a form of analysis to just look at size and 40 speed to ascertain what a player brings to the table. They are very different players which is why one of them was ranked #9 in Daniel Jeremiah's top 150 prospects and the other was not on the list.

Yeah, I actually made another post somewhere that included Allen in the equation

Honestly, I grew up in Utah, and I always said Utahn, however, I haven't lived there in so long, I have heard recently it is Utahite, though nobody in Utah would call it that.

Thanks for correcting me I suppose.

Has anyone told the Utahns/Utahites they have funny liquor laws?

I am confused by all this WR talk. He’s a TE, not a slot WR. In the NFL his mismatch is going to be boxing out strong safeties and beating linebackers up seams and crossing routes. Then some quirky shovel passes and whatnot. 
 

If he’s a WR, than he’ll draw coverage from a strong DB that can most certainly run with him, and over the top help.. because he seems to be the Bills deep threat(??)

 

To make this pick worth it, creativity that the Bills haven’t shown last year, needs to happen. Kelce type play designs need to happen. That’s a first round TE. But Kelce makes it work because he’s so damn good, and he’s got the best QB in football working together with him as the primary target. If Kincaid is just going to go out there and bag 50 catches for 500 yds and 5 touchdowns then what the hell is going on here..
