ChronicAndKnuckles Posted October 23 Posted October 23 9 hours ago, LABILLBACKER said: What a terrible "Cody Ford" type of pick. Oh well we still must keep drafting pass rushers until we find that diamond. Von won't be around forever and Groot/AJE are hardly elite. Eh…they double dipped at DE that year and hit on one of them. Not terrible 1 Quote
GunnerBill Posted October 23 Posted October 23 8 hours ago, LABILLBACKER said: We got greedy defensively and went to the well 3x in two drafts. We already burned an early pick on AJE in 2020, then drafted Groot in the 1st round. Was it really necessary to waste another high pick on a 3rd DE?? We easily could've had Nico Collins or Aman-Ra St. Brown with Boogies pick. You're right, McD can't get out of his own way. And he'll never emphasize the offense. Boogie was 100% a Beane and Schoen pick. They loved him. Be glad Rousseau was there because they had such a high grade on Boogie they'd have considered him at the end of round 1 if Etienne and Rousseau were off the board. 47 minutes ago, Sojourner said: Dion Dawkins, Eppy, James Cook, Torrence. Not that bad. Zay Jones, Cody Ford, Boogie Basham. Pretty poor players for us. Keon and Cole Bishop the other 2nd rounders. Jury is obviously still out on them. How do you feel about the later rounds/day 3 picks? Excluding this year, he’s had 30 draft picks in that 4-7 round range. Shakir, Benford, Damar, Gabe Davis, Tyler Bass, Taron, Siran Neal and Milano are the hits for this team. Dion and Zay were Sean not Brandon. 1 Quote

Wonder if that’s one of those “ he’d like to have back”. ? Getting cut loose from that dumpster fire of a season/ team is an indictment on his talent level. But hey ' if you have nothing else to do , just come hang out on the PS.” ! How absurd is that? The bills treat each roster / ps slot like they are important , nothing given , only earned. Giants are leaving it open to a move from a guy they just cut ? I understand him getting cut , but being offered a consolation prize , doesn’t seem like legit roster building. Daboll may really be in trouble, and this doesn’t instill confidence in the gm either. I can’t imagine the bills looking at him again , even tho I bet some might suggest that. Pretty significant whiff and hard to understand why he stood out on beans board that year. Quote

I'm not sure why so many on here act like the Bills are the only team that ever has picks not pan out... I mean look at the Chiefs...as good as they are they drafted CEH and Skyy Moore in the 1st and 2nd rounds and have gotten not a lot from them. Very true. But often TBD consensus picks are superior, and that’s been going on for a long time. The vast majority of this board wanted DK Metcalf in 2nd round Vita anyone but Maybin board want Mack, we took Watkins 1 Quote

colin Posted October 23 Posted October 23 im not the biggest scout/draft guy, but i remember when this pick was made, i was wondering what makes this guy good enough to take this high, and after we added AJ, oliver, and groot. i was hoping the front office had secret knowledge, but my goodness this guy sucked out loud from day one. 1 1 Quote

Not terrible While Boogie looked like a better run-defender than pass rush guy, I didn't criticize Beane for double dipping when we needed DE help so desperately at the time and all draft picks are crap shoots anyway. 2 Quote

The vast majority of this board wanted DK Metcalf in 2nd round Vita anyone but Maybin board want Mack, we took Watkins yes, the majority consensus picks years later are always right. If you go back and look at the actual results, I think you'll find the TBD hivemind is pretty awful. Don't forget you don't just get to look at the one pick in a decade that's 'right', but all the ones that are very, very wrong. 1 Quote

BB2004 Posted October 23 Posted October 23 23 hours ago, T.E. said: At least with Ford, we needed an offensive lineman and he was viewed by many as a 1st rounder. We took Basham right after selecting Rousseau. What a colossally dumb pick that had McDermott's hands all over it. Anyone think or know what they liked about Basham when they drafted him or was it another piece in the DL rotation? 1 Quote
Bookie Man Posted October 23 Posted October 23 I get why Beane double dipped at DE in that draft. He saw how the Bucs pass rush feasted on KC's (backup) OTs. But really didn't like him as a prospect. Basically drafting him at his ceiling, at 24 years old. Nothing on tape really jumped out about him. Kind of a tweener guy that doesn't do anything that well. 1 Quote

Someone posted it previously that, yes, it was for rotations but also they felt he had the ability to play multiple positions across the line if needed. Quote

Kaenon Posted October 23 Posted October 23 Man, I'll take the blame for this. I wanted Boogie so badly in that draft, thought there was no shot after we took Rousseau (whom I didn't think we could get at our pick). Lobbied pretty hard and they took Boogie. 😬 Quote
