Which WR prospect will the Bengals screw us out of?

[D. L. Hot-Flamethrower]

The Ohio St. dude Egbuke? didn't show me much in a tough game with Michigan Sat. As a matter of fact, he had a bad case of alligator arms and looked like he lacked courage. Just sayin'

I don’t think McD will be overseeing the next draft. And we will go WR.  

[C.Biscuit97]

I absolutely love Rome. Straight baller and seems like a great dude. I also love both of the FSU guys but favor Coleman because I do worry about separation issues with Wilson. 
 

I just hope this team realizes how big of a need this is and doesn’t hesitate to trade up. While there are no sure fire picks, a receiver playing with Allen seems like a pretty safe bet.

Well he is a flamethrower.

The Bengals are finally going to have to draft an OT in the first round. Otherwise, they are "Andrew Lucking" Joe Burrow.

Do it again.  And again.  They should load up on fast guys who can actually catch footballs.  

 

There have to be some fast safeties who can catch footballs in next year's draft.  Of course, they won't play because McD doesn't really trust rookies, but he'd have them ready for 2026 or so.

Didn’t they just draft a 1st round OT and sign a high price one?

The Bills have lots of draft needs and I have no idea how the board will fall.  If they do decide to go WR in the first round, I would love Coleman.  I'm not a Michigan State or Florida State fan, but every time I've seen Coleman play (he started at MSU and transferred to FSU) he's been dominant and clutch.  He's a beast.  He'd look great in at Bills uniform.  If the Bills wait until the mid rounds, I like Roman Wilson of Michigan.  He's got decent size, great speed, has shown great hands this season (the replay catch on Saturday notwithstanding) and he comes through in the clutch.  I have a Michigan bias, but it's the team I watch week in and week out, so I get to see their guys play a lot.

They did sign Orlando Brown in Free Agency last year, but their only draft pick on the OL was Jackson Carman in second in 2021. They keep trying to overpay guys that other teams are fine moving on from and drafting defense. The majority of their picks since drafting Chase with their first in 2021 have been DEs and DBs.

That is just one game, and for what it's worth I absolutely HATED Tee Higgins at Clemson because he was so soft and injury prone and would never make a tough catch or tough play... and look at how that worked out.

I've already stated this in another thread, but give me Xavier Leggette from South Carolina. He's the next AJ Brown. He is 6'3", 227lbs, and will probably run in the high 4.3's come February. He's been productive with Spencer Rattler as his QB and basically NO ONE else on his team out there making plays. He also has ability as a kick/punt returner if we need him to do so. He has 71 catches for 1,255 yds and 7 TD's. The next closest guy on his team is a TE who has 37 catches for 312 yards. The next closest WR has 26 catches for 265 yds. He is his team's only legit weapon at WR.

Awesome! This was exactly the type of response I was hoping for.

 

Interesting because we might be able to get him in the 2nd, so the same body type and draft position of guys like AJ Brown and DK Metcalf! If only his first name were two initials!

 

I wonder if this is a case where Beane could trade DOWN in the 1st, and nab him in the 20s while picking up an extra 2nd or 3rd rounder.

Outside of Marvin the clear best WR is Nabers and it’s not particularly close for me

Bro has got legs like tree trunks, but runs like a gazelle. He also brings to mind another WR from South Carolina, but Leggette is bigger. That's Deebo Samuel.

I'd be shocked to see us go WR higher than the 3rd (requiring a trade up). They'll likely consider themselves in a decent spot with Diggs and Kincaid. They have bigger holes to fill on Defense. I could see them going S-S or S/CB and then get to WR in the 4th round. They'll also need a DT and of course no Bills draft would be complete without another RB. Might be a good time to take a project QB too.

Honestly, I've never seen WR2 as big a need as most of this board. Especially with the emergence of Kincaid and Shakir. And Defense will obviously be where all the holes and needs are.

 

But with Diggs aging out and likely wrapping up his career in a couple years, it would be nice to have his replacement already on the team.

He is always hurt in Cincinnati and tends to drop of lot of balls. Just not against the Bills.

Whoever it is we draft should get his chance a few years down the road when he knows the system.

Like Dalton Kincaid and O'Cyrus Torrence?

Who are they, we don't take offensive players in the 1st or 2nd rounds except 3 times in the last 2 drafts.
