Who should the Bills draft at #19 (Trade)?

Edited April 24 by Virgil

This has to be a landslide for Thomas, no?

[Virgil]

I made this poll thinking I was going to vote for Brian Thomas.  However, even though the Chiefs equally need OT help, I thought about the nightmare that would be Worthy on the Chiefs and I changed my mind.  While teams have said they aren't concerned, Thomas has a shoulder issue that some feel may hurt his draft stock.  Also, the idea of Josh not being able to overthrow Worthy, and teams having to stay in cover 2 against us with him and Samuel, is a nice thought for our TE's and run game.  

 

I don't like to draft in reaction to other teams, but I can get behind this logic.

 

Also, as of today, some see Worthy going in the top 10 based on speed alone, as the #4/5 receiver

I don't see much of a difference between him and some of the other guys plus it's reported that he now has a shoulder issue and may need surgery but who knows. I'd rather they had not traded up at all if this is who is available on the board

[GunnerBill]

If they trade up to #19 only Thomas makes sense to me. Because the rest are likely available at #28 or with a very small trade up.

It's hard to believe anything you hear on the week of the draft, but one report I heard said he may not be 100% for the first season, if not unavailable for some of it

There's rumors of Worthy going in the top 10 to someone like the Raiders or Dolphins who love speed.  I can't see the Dolphins doing it with all their other needs, but it wouldn't be the first time that someone overdrafted a guy because of his 40 time

Worthy is definitely the pick here. Can’t teach speed. Hot, nasty, badass speed

Agreed,  and unfortunately,  as much as I'd like to see them go WR at 28,  I don't like the value nearly as much at 19. 

 

I voted for Cooper DeJean.  I don't want a R1 DB,  but he fits this D as a zone CB with freakish speed and athleticism,  and in the event that he doesn't make it there (and I think he would),  he has the size to move to safety. 

 

...Actually,  I'd have to change my vote.  I didn't see Quinyon Mitchell still available.  I'd choose him over DeJean here.  Not that it matters,  as BTJ is going to run away with this.

Based on this it could be possible Brian Thomas would be available at 28 anyhow or maybe we trade up like 2-3 spots like usual to get our guy if they really did target him 

[LEBills]

Idk, Bills are pretty conservative when it comes to guys with injuries

 

BTJ having that reported shoulder injury may take him off the board

 

I went with Worthy, I could see a scenario where they try to get ahead of the Dolphins to get him.

 

overall think trading up is not a good idea for a WR

That’s why you make the move for Worthy. BTJ is the smokescreen all along. It’s SPEED they want. We’ll call him The Flash. He’ll be injected with Puma sperm before every game. No DBs will have a chance at him

Thomas ran a 4.33, which is really fast by the way, but is 45lbs heavier than Worthy.

The better question is, how will it be obtained? And will it be videotaped?

[section122]

I love worthy but i think if the bills trade up its for btj.

Got another way to make someone go faster? It’s been proven. Why do you think Usain Bolt was so fast. It wasn’t HGH, it was Puma Sperm.

No shoulder injury. Plus I heard that Thomas is not a good  locker room guy

They videotape it for scientific purposes. They also have vids of Aaron Donald getting Gorilla Sperm

I'm betting this is a formality as the board will almost undoubtedly pile on Thomas here. My real vote would be not to move that high for any of these guys.

I agree. Maybe we should re-poll and ask again if anyone wants to move up. Pretty sure it would be close. 

[papazoid]

several players in this mock still avail consensus rated higher than Thomas

 

mitchell, chop robinson, Arnold, Latham, Fautanu, DeJean
