1 rd. Trade the this 28th and our 2025 2nd to Jax for their 17th and draft Brian Thomas Jr. LSU WR. No surprise here.

 

2 rd. 60th Jermaine Burton Alabama WR. Numbers don’t jump out because of bad quarterback play. 6 feet 196 pounds with 4.45 forty speed. 38 inch vertical 11 foot broad jump. Excellent downfield receiver. Particularly on the sidelines.
 

4 rd. 128th Braelon Allen Wisconsin RB. 6 foot and 1 inch and 235 pounds of muscle. Bruising back who would be a very good compliment to James Cook. Also ran a 4.40 forty at the combine typical workhorse Wisconsin running back style.

 

4 rd. 132nd Tykee Smith university of Georgia safety. Doesn’t have ideal height at 5 foot 10 but has a solid built weighing in at 206 pounds. Ran a 4.46 forty at the combine. Recorded for an interceptions and a senior year at Georgia.

 

The rest of the draft picks might be used for trade ups or just  best player available at this point. I thought about using the second round from this year, the third round from next year and the fourth round for this year to trade up to the end of the first for Troy Franklin, but thought against it.

 

 

Burton has serious character issues if I remember right. He also transfered 2-3 times in college

My mock is:

 

1.28 - Bills go with best CB available, which will be Kool-Aid McKinstry

 

2.42 - Bills trade up with Houston and send them 2.60 with Kaiir Elam to jump up and take a WR. Bills continue rolling doing deals with Houston and Elam follows Diggs to Texas where Elam had a previous top-30 visit to Houston in 2022.

With this pick the Bills select Xavier Legette to be their WR of choice.

 

The Bills aren't done there.

 

2.46 - Bills make a trade with Indianapolis sending the 2025 HOU 2nd (via MIN), 2024 4.128 and 2024 5.160 (via GB) and select LB, Edgerrin Cooper out of Texas A&M

 

No 3rd round pick, but the Bills then still have:

4.133

5.144

5.163

6.200

6.204

7.248

So a LB who would only play special teams for a couple seasons......OK.

Resident Aggies fan so I am bias, but he's best LB in the nation. 

Who knows how TB and Milano will be this year post injuries...

You want AJ Klein against the Chiefs in the playoffs again? Lol

I get your angle, but I would also hope Dorian Williams was up to speed to step in either of those spots this year. For what it's worth though I would like your pic a million times better than like say, Kitchens the safety from Miami. So no I absolutely wouldn't hate it as a pic because I mean too many linebackers is not ever a bad thing either.

I don't think our 2nd next year is enough to get to get from 28 to 17. And if Thomas makes it to the Jaguars, the Jaguars are probably just going to take him. The feeling around Thomas is that we'd have to get ahead of the Jaguars to ensure him.

But they just signed Gabe Davis 🤣

I can pretty much guarantee that Beane is not going to both trade up in the first for a WR and draft one again at 60

And they were trying to retain Calvin Ridley after they signed Davis and lost him. 

 

They do have Gabe Davis, Zay Jones, Devin Duvernay, and Christian Kirk in the Slot. So it's possible they go elsewhere and wait on WR.

 

But with them seriously trying to retain Ridley and not being able to get it done, i'd assume they're still looking for a bigger piece alongside Davis than Zay.

Sorry I was joking there's no way Gabe should stop them from drafting a guy like BTJ

Beane will do what he wants 🤣😆😂 jk I agree ain't no way. Now, maybe just maybe he takes one at 28 and then trades up in the second if another guy he likes keeps slipping down..... maybe.
