2 Trade downs here, picking up an early 4th and SF's 2026 2nd.  Here I waited on CB's, but still got two mid round sleepers I like.  Got 3 Stud DT's, a stud TE, 2 speedsters at WR (one with size) and the fastest RB in the draft.

What a dream draft.

[Warriorspikes51]

[BillsShredder83]

Has anybody done this yet?  Asked ChatGPT; criteria I gave it being "realistic & scheme fit"... I can tell its pretty whack given its talking about "post-Diggs".

 

I dont know much about this draft past round 2, so you'll have to be the judge

 

Round 1, Pick 26

Matthew Golden, WR, Texas

Why: A dynamic playmaker with elite speed (4.29 40-yard dash) and route-running ability. Golden can stretch the field and provide Josh Allen with a reliable deep threat

 

Round 2, Pick 58

Nick Emmanwori, S, South Carolina

Why: A versatile safety with excellent size (6'3", 220 lbs) and athleticism. Emmanwori can play both deep and in the box, fitting well into the Bills' defensive schemes.

 

Round 3, Pick 90

Omarr Norman-Lott, DT, Tennessee

Why: A quick, gap-shooting defensive tackle capable of putting pressure on the quarterback. Norman-Lott adds depth and pass-rushing ability to the interior defensive line.

 

Round 4, Pick 124

Jacob Parrish, CB, Kansas State

Why: A feisty nickel corner with impressive speed (4.35 40-yard dash). Parrish brings competitiveness and depth to the secondary, particularly in slot coverage

 

Round 5, Pick 160

T.J. Sanders, DT, South Carolina

Why: An interior pass rusher with notable production (11.5 sacks in 2024). Sanders offers rotational depth and potential as a disruptive force on the defensive line.

 

Round 6, Pick 205 (LOL REALLYYYYY CHATGPT?!)

Jayden Higgins, WR, Iowa State

Why: A tall (6'4") receiver with strong hands and contested catch ability. Higgins provides a red-zone target and depth to the receiving corps.

 

Round 7, Pick 239

Ryan Rehkow, P, BYU

Why: A punter with a powerful leg and excellent hang time. Rehkow can compete for the starting role and improve field position battles.

There is no way TJ or Jaden get there. Totally impossible.

interior DL goes from weakness to STRENGTH in a hurry.  Do it. 

 

Those 3 will make each other stronger with the competition.   

with rotation, gives us a chance to keep the big guys fresh. 

 

Grant, West 
Oliver, Collins

 

Ogunjobi suspended / DT5  

Carter inactive

DaQuan released 

Of course, this is unlikely to happen....but it shouldn't be.

We have Ed Oliver and no one.

And Ed Oliver shouldn't be on the field all the time. We need 2 capable combos.

I asked Chat GPT to take on the role of NFL GM for the Bills and draft based on team needs and prospect value for the first 2 rounds while simulating the other teams picks as well and here is what it came up with:

 

1st round-30: Kenneth Grant, DT, Michigan

 

2nd round-60: Dorian Strong, CB Virginia Tech

 

2nd round-62: Kyren Lacy, WR LSU

Edited April 19 by Big Turk

[LyndonvilleBill]

Couple small trades. 

 

Used 56 & 173 to move up to 50.

Traded 169 w/Rams for 26' 4&6

Then, slip of a finger and I guess I traded 177 for 183&210 w/Ravens.🫣

 

Looks like it turned out ok in the end.😁

[Special K]

I think these four would truly re-make the Bills D.

 

[Clyde Smith]

I would love this draft result. 

[Dr. Who]

Wasn't happy with the choices at 30 and kept trading back. Ended up pretty interesting. Doubled up on some key positions, and overall I like this for the D.

I think everyone in there is a round or more off with the exception of Golden (who will go earlier than the Bills pick ) and the Punter

If we could get Donte Thornton and Edge Jared Ivey and/or David walker to add to this perfect.

Solid - grabbed  lot of the guys I liked. I would have drafted Blue over Neal and if Bond is still on the bills board, I still wouldn’t have taken him as he’s a virtual twin to Tai Felton

Yeah I agree should’ve draft Blue over Neal. Bond at #173 value was too good even with his off the field stuff if the Bills are comfortable. But overall our defense would be much improved with a draft like this.

These mock draft simulators are like crack. Have been playing around with a few of them. It's nice doing different simulators since they have different ratings on players. Some of these mocks seem a little unrealistic especially with trade down scenarios where I've been getting Grant or Harmon in the low 30s like this one. All I know is I really want the Bills to somehow get 2 solid DT, at least 1 good edge maybe 2, double up on CBs, and then try to get WR, LB, IOL, TE, S also somewhere in there.
