San Francisco will do 62, 109, 177 for 75, 100, 113, and 249. Thats 284+76+20=380 from Buffalo for 215+100+68+1=384 from SF. 
 

@Virgil

 

I'd do it. If this was the board I'd do it. 

 

The best two players on the board by far (if we are discounting Bond for off-field reasons) are a DT - we have already picked two and an OT - we have two established starters on the team and other needs. 

 

Sliding back 15 gets you into the spot where I do think a Nohl Williams or a Zy Alexander make sense or you could go for one of the speedier receivers - Royals, Felton, etc.... 

 

If you are picking here and you are discounting DT and OT it is Tre Harris or Jack Sawyer for me and while both those guys are at positions of need they are not the ideal profiles the Bills need at those spots.

Sawyer would be the best pass rusher on the 2026 Bills.

I like Sawyer, they won’t draft him. 31 inch arms is just something I don’t think this regime would do with an end. They don’t even like corners with 31 inch arms. Never gonna happen with an edge guy.

I don’t agree.  I know some see him as having rush upside, I see him (maybe I am wrong) as a try-hard power rusher with arms that are quite short.  I’d compare him some to Chris Kelsay - a player who I thought was unfairly maligned here.  He was good, just not great.

Don’t disagree that they won’t touch him due to the physical attributes. 
 

By the same token, if he had 34 inch arms, he probably wouldn’t be around past the top 15. 
 

Melvin Ingram had short arms. He was more OLB in a 3-4 though.

 

I’d bet on Sawyer but I could sorta see him being an AJE clean up sack guy too.

Meh. I don't think he is going to be a difference maker in the NFL. He will be another 6-8 sack guy.

With the 62 pick in the TBD mock draft 2.0 the San Francisco 49ers select TJ Sanders, DT, South Carolina.

 

I debated Sanders earlier in round two but took the corner as I was afraid that position would dry up. This trade up gave me the opportunity to come up and get the target I had earlier. Sanders is not my personal favorite prospect but I think he is a really good fit for San Fran and what they want to do and they have shown a ton of interest in him pre-draft. Honestly with all the needs on the roster the trade up is risky, but I was able to get the OL in Banks, CB in Amos and DL with Sanders. 
 

 

The Kansas City Swifties and @NewEra are on the clock.

So we took two 1-techs and moved our late second for an early third and to make our early 4th a late third and our late fifth a fourth?…. Hopefully next version goes better

Next version is going to include a trade up.  Just a heads up

With the 64nd pick and final pick of Mock Draft 2, The Beagles select  Kyren Lacey  WR LSU (RIP)

 

Mental health is important, if you or you know anyone are ever feeling that they’d take their own life contact someone ASAP.  Call the 988 Life line!                                                                         (And yes I know about the allegations against him)

 

Mock Draft 3 is on the clock with the 1st  pick.

We took two versatile, massive defensive tackles. And I think the trade down made a ton of sense with what was on the board, something Beane did in 2022 when he didn’t like the board and just kept moving down. Also gained an extra pick in the trade. 
 

To me if you go DT in round 1 you will be in no man’s land in round 2, which is what happened here. I think it is a really good exercise to see the possibilities.
