Motorin' Posted March 21 Posted March 21 9 minutes ago, Beck Water said: Does Alabama have any good WR? Serious question.... If the Bills don't take a 1st or 2nd round receiver, Jermaine Burton is in that next group of wr's the Bills would be targeting. Like Tez Walker, Javon Baker, Burton, Brendon Rice. Those would be the Gabe Davis replacements as more physical x / deep threat boundary receivers. To have their pick of the third tier receivers they'll probably have to package some picks and move into the 3rd round... While Burton is the smallest of the 3rd/4th round x receivers, he might be the best deep threat. 1 1 Quote

Bama has some good prospects but don't seem to fit our glaring needs on paper. What's he up to? WR Burton there? Quote

He would have much better numbers with any of the previous four Alabama QBs. MUCH better. Playing with Milroe at QB makes him tougher to rate and will more than likely cost him in the draft. The only caveat is that he is said to be a bit of a head case. I think that if he has himself together he would be a very, very good target for Josh. Jmo. 3 2 Quote

They can take them to lunch and talk to them. The Bills did that with Bijon last year on the day of Texas' Pro Day. 1 Quote

I assume they can but I can't say for sure. Belecik was a frequent visitor to Tuscaloosa. It is hard for me to imagine Saban (his friend for about 50 years and fellow Croatian) not introducing him to players. Quote
wppete Posted March 21 Posted March 21 Burton is a great player. Hopefully he is there in the 4th round. 2 Quote

Although i will be honest i don't know much about his supposed "head case" issues. But on pure talent wowzer does his highlight reels blow me away 👍 1 Quote
nosejob Posted March 21 Posted March 21 I wouldn't complain if we ended up with Burton and Walker. 1 Quote

But on pure talent wowzer does his highlight reels blow me away 👍 Apparently he has some off field concerns and some teams could have him completely off their boards. But if the Bills culture is so strong and they are so confident in their culture and locker room, if he is there in the 4th round it would be a great pick. On the field he is a stud and one of the beat WR in this draft. Quote

Might be a hot take but dareus for a few years. I get once he got paid he turned lazy and was bad, but he was dominant for a couple seasons Quote

YoloinOhio Posted March 22 Posted March 22 (edited) 23 hours ago, Bill from NYC said: Agreed. The good Bama players do keep on coming. The Lions had Williams, Branch, and Gibbs help them get to the Super Bowl. I posted my opinion of this class about a month ago. It isn't their strongest class by any means but there are some very good players there. Dwayne Haskins was pretty good as well. Oh wait, different school. https://www.espn.com/nfl/player/_/id/4040616/dwayne-haskins Why the Haskins reference - never wore a Bills uni, and obviously never will now. Should have used cardale!
