Considering we have a huge need at RB (only 2 on the team right now) we will be drafting one. I dont think the value is there in the first two rounds but would definitely be happy to have a reliable short yardage and pass pro RB in the 4th. Do you think all our other needs are greater than RB that we shouldnt consider RB in the 4th? I hate to break the news to you, but the fourth round takes place on day 3 of the NFL draft. Quote
mannc Posted April 18 Posted April 18 If we’re talking about day 3 RBs, I have to mention Bucky Irving (U of Oregon), even though he’s probably not a fit for the Bills. Undersized, but extremely shifty and quick; always makes the first tackler miss. Definitely not a pile-mover, but very productive at Oregon (almost 1700 yards from scrimmage in 2023) and maybe the best pass-catching back in the draft. Reminds me of a slightly faster Devin Singletary… Quote

Point still stands about why not include the 4th round for this discussion. I think its more likely we pick one in the 4th than 6th or 7th. 1 Quote

I would be happy with him there but round 3 does feel a bit much. Quote

Yeah I’d be ok with him at the end of rd 4. I really like his fit, he’s young (20) and I like his interviews. 1 hour ago, Freddie's Dead said: None. UDFA. Ok.

You think there are 10 more pressing needs than a room that ONLY has 2 players in it (both with similar skill sets). Theres snaps to be had at this position. I expect a pick, UDFA, and probably a FA signing as well. Need bodies. Quote

We blew two picks on Motor and Moss and they didn't even last through their rookie deals. RB's are a dime a dozen, so I'm fine with not using a pick on a RB. Quote

The Wiz Posted April 19 Posted April 19 Can I give my 2nd/3rd rounders since they are probably going to use another 2nd on a RB anyways? 1 Quote
