Henley and Simpson are also small but better players that were reasonable to draft in the third. Overshown and Williams are also small and their skills would have been reasonable in the 5th round. but that is just my opinion from what I do pre-draft. I hope I am wrong and he is awesome Quote

Would have gone for a 1 tech or more OL and not duplicate last year's miss. But your team needed one badly. Would you have been happy with any of the other ILB's drafted shortly before Dorian? Quote

For Beane to go ilb for 2 straight years w a top 100 pick, makes me like this pick even more. Best believe he's well in tuned with the criticism he'll face if neither develop into a starter Quote

No other player available before or after has the 'size' everyone else is complaining about Quote

At the end of the day he got us 3 straight divisional titles. 4 straight playoff appearances. He picked our franchise QB and a top 3 WR through the draft process I love last years draft class too. We're loaded on both sides and just got 3 day 1 starters Quote

Green Lightning Posted April 29, 2023 Posted April 29, 2023 So a 6'1 224 pound slow (4.85) LB in the 3rd round last year who never saw the field to a 6'1 228 pound faster (4.45) version in the third this year. Yeah, what's not to like? I guess 6'1 is the maximum height for Bills LBs. Should strike fear with opposition OCs who dare to run against this group. New LB coach Tyrion Lannister must be over the top happy. 10 minutes ago, bearcat said: Don't know enough about him to know how I feel about him https://www.nfl.com/prospects/dorian-williams/32005749-4c24-3940-708f-17c023a4d993 https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/Player/Dorian-Williams-LB-Tulane Projected as a day 3 pick and quality back up.

RyanC883 Posted April 29, 2023 Posted April 29, 2023 I like this pick, but WR A.T. Perry should have been the pick here, and go back into 4th if needed to get Williams, or get another guy.

Warriorspikes51 Posted April 29, 2023 Posted April 29, 2023 AJ Klein is underrated. This pick was 100% not needed. It’s not even a “luxury” pick. Quote
