Process Posted February 22 Posted February 22 Mooney or Samuel plus a first or 2nd round WR would be great additions. Though not sure we can afford those guys. Bourne +1st round pick would also be great and perhaps more realistic. 2 Quote

Bourne +1st round pick would also be great and perhaps more realistic. I loved Bourne as an in season trade candidate but now he's coming off an ACL tear so he's not on my short list. I will bang the drum though for Noah Brown who has similar size and skill set that Gabe does and likely a lot cheaper. Toss in he showed last year in Texas he could be a pseudo WR1 when others around him got hurt. I also like the idea taking a WR early yet more into liking taking one after round 1 as feel we need a quality DE and to me harder to find that after round 1 than a WR. I mentioned Brown and Ja'Lynn Polk in Round 2 and then taking a guy like Cornelius Johnson in Round 5. Quote

That's assuming they think he'll be ready to start the season. That's s big question mark. If not than forget it. Brown is a good option as well. Edited February 22 by Process Quote

Not too bad of a drop, but a significant drop. Diggs went from 4th overall to 67th. 😬 https://espnanalytics.com/rtm/ those are different analytic processes. pff was one version and espn was something else. based on targets or something i forgot.

His floor is an instant upgrade from Sherfield 1 1 Quote

That would be a nice group, especially with Kincaid and Cook. Quote

I think they’d be interchangeable. He and Shakir would be similar roles though. Bills might be looking for straight field stretchers. I wouldn’t be shocked if they draft 2 sprinters. Samuel is more of a horizontal WR. Get the ball in his hands. I don’t really know enough about Brady. As OC in Buffalo he was very much horizontal with his play calling. A lot of WR screens. Samuel fits that more than even Diggs does. So does Shakir. Quote
dpberr Posted February 22 Posted February 22 If you want to find the guys that have the greatest value in impacting a playoff game, just look at the data for December onwards. After our last two playoff exits, I'm more convinced that when evaluating free agents and college players, you eliminate the first 1-2 months of play and evaluate their performance once they are tired and injured. You don't want to spend money on the September stats machines. Quote
JohnBonhamRocks Posted February 22 Posted February 22 I think we are getting too caught up in slot vs wide, WR2 vs WR3, etc. 1 1 Quote
