This is setting up for Warren to go to Miami…

Good. They need defense bad.

I'm guessing O or Dline.

Would not be shocked if it’s Grant

Word is the Steelers are going to pass as well. Could be a smoke screen though 

 

Personally I think Shough might be the best QB prospect in this draft, and I like Darts ceiling more than Sanders too.  But if they pass on a QB at 21, they don't have a 2nd round pick, so that probably means they are looking at trading for Cousins or something and he looked shot last year.  So feels like they should be going QB at 21 or maybe trading back and then targeting someone like Sanders, Dart, or Shough.  But who knows right...wouldn't surprise me either way.

Did she just say "get ready in Buffalo for the greatest season of your lives??"

Think I heard that too.

Loveland is a tremendous blocker and he’s huge.  

Lee Smith was a tremendous blocker and he was huge too.

Browns could take him early round 2

For those complaining about the TV production: what did you expect? It's mass entertainment almost entirely dictated by viewership metrics/growing their fanbase. Gonna be cheesy and dragged out and plastic. Why I have it on the TV but don't really pay attention to that between picks. 

 

For those complaining about the presenters who are women, get a life. 

No prospective or new fan of the NFL is tuning into the freaking draft. It's televised for serious fans, and the league does everything possible to make it unenjoyable for them.

Pretty sure the last 1st round TE was Kincaid

Bowers

[MikePJ76]

looks like Dallas is talking trade with someone.  They are on the phone.

[Billl]

Chicago taking Colston when they had Kmet feels an awful lot like Buffalo taking Kincaid when they had Knox.

Think the Bears just got a F for the draft.....  Bad bag of coke in that war room?

You’re talking to the right guy about Shough. Poor man’s Matthew Stafford in my opinion. A lot of injuries and he’s old though so if your going to take him he has to play fairly quickly 

[PromoTheRobot]

So someone break it down for a guy who wasn't paying much attention to the draft chatter. It feels like lots of players the Bills would like are still on the board, and maybe a trade up could happen?

San Fran took how long? Seemed almost immediate. Would love it if most teams sprinted through this thing
