Great players taken with a Bills draft choice:

 

Mahomes

Jefferson

Worthy

 

Oh, so now Worthy is a "great" player?  LOL.

People need to stop bringing up McDuffie, we were never drafting McDuffie who plays the same position as Taron, who is already one of the 3 best NCB in the NFL.  That is about as much of wasted energy as it would be if a team traded ahead of us to get a LT or a QB.

I’m not counting Gabe…..so since 2017 - here are the game changing offensive players we’ve drafted not including Josh:

Dawkins

Torrence

Spencer Brown

Cook

Shakir - EDIT

 

That’s the list.  EIGHT DRAFTS.  5 difference makers on O and 3 are lineman.  
 

 

Jury still out:

 

Keon

Ray Davis

 

And we used some draft capital to acquire Diggs. That said am curious how this stacks up to the Chiefs or Eagles?

It's fun to do the "what ifs' understanding that there isn't a single NFL GM who doesn't whiff on draft picks.  But it's fun to daydream.  What if we picked Humphrey and jumped the Chiefs for McDuffie?  Are we winning Super Bowls?  2019 draft.  We desperately needed a DT.  Wilkins, Simmons and Lawrence were picked after Oliver.  Any one of them would have been a huge upgrade.  How about Metcalf or AJ Brown instead of Ford in round 2 that year.  If we pick Brown, do we trade for Diggs?  If we don't trade for Diggs, does Jefferson fall in our laps?  If Jefferson is gone, do we pick Tee Higgins?  Can you imagine Allen throwing to Brown and Jefferson?  Mind-boggling.

I think Groot did have a decent year, but he was ROUGH last night. The Mahomes TD run on the boot he didn't even seem to try and fight through Hunt's block. It was very un-Groot like but it was pathetic. 

He was the most painful to watch last night. Seems like he was constantly on the ground.  We had zero outside contain, on a lot of key plays.  He was so bad, that it almost washes out, all the good we saw during the season.

They said the footing was bad  due to the ground being so hard , they should get different shoes then for that kind of surface.

He's the prime receiver on a dynasty team.  He could probably start for the Bills.

The great Howie Roseman picked Jalen Reagor 1 pick before Justin Jefferson. Brett Veach picked Clyde Edwards-Helaire in the first round and Skyy Moore in the second. They all miss some.

Beane is more to blame than McDermott but it doesn't matter nothing will change. Pegula would much rather lose for a 5th straight time to the chiefs than his distorted perception of what the alternative is.

Oh so now it's Terry's fault dam ya'll will go any where . So have him sell the team & fire Beane and McD then everything will be right in Bills territory, WOW !!! 

[Augie]

Draft miscues? 

 

What’s next? A thread about closing my hand in the car door?

Ummm yes its Terry's fault because he won't make a change . Are you OK with running it back with McDermott and beane ? If so, how many losses in a row to the chiefs before you've had enough ? If 4 isn't enough for you what is ? 5 ? 6 ? How about 10 losses in a row to the chiefs ?

As many as it takes ! So you'd rather have a Jerry Jones as a owner then is what your saying and can i ask you to tell me where were the Cowboys in the play offs this year, least year, and so on ??? I anxiously await your answer sir ...

Besides Josh, our 1st & 2nd round picks have been for the most part underwhelming. I witnessed Worthy outplay Elam, Groot, Kincaid & Coleman combined. We saw Josh make do with less this season,  but when the HELL is McB going to hit on some early defensive picks?   Ever???

Stop trying to and trade the picks for good players.  

 

Jerry jeudy wasn’t a superstar but he was traded for a 5th and 6th.  Who did we draft in those rounds? I don’t even know their names, so that’s the impact they had. Jeudy had 90 catches and over 1200 yards on THE BROWNS.

Bean drafts guys that he thinks MCD wants.  MCD is the boss in this organization.

 

MCD greatly values traits that do not contribute to being a good football player, and he does not recognize players who are good when he has them at times (extending that jets rt, and Spain and trading teller, that's going from all pro to a guy who can't make a roster, and burning cap in the process).

 

You can't win with slow weak guys, even if Allen bails your team out most games

Beane is starting to look real bad. Where are the playmakers on this team?? I don’t see any other than Allen, Cook, Benford and Milano. 
 

There are a lot of guys on the defense that are overrated and overvalued IMO. 
On offense WR is still an issue. 

 

the biggest joke is Hamlin starting
