Perils of moving up - Sammy Watkins, TJumptomakeacatch Graham, Cody Ford. You move up, you better be right.

Most interesting Bills draft for me since 2018 … There are 5 options Beane could take in respect of addressing WR … and none of them would really surprise me … Since the Diggs decision… I think he is under some pressure now to hit it out of the park the next couple of days … I want to see them come out of this with 2 quality WR and at least have a back up plan for Miller.. Good luck Beane !

If you're talking to me, I did go "over there to fight." Thankfully, it didn't happen, although none of this past twenty five years may have occurred if we did fight then. By the way, your responses here indicated by your last two sentences quoted above, suggest that you might not be as brilliant as you claim.

JP Losman was the result of Donahoe not having the guts to offer enough to get into the top 10 and draft the QB he really wanted, Ben Roethlisberger. If Donahoe had offered enough to move up from 13, as Beane did later to move from 12 to 7, Bills history would be drastically different. So, by including JP Losman, you are supporting trading up. NOT trading up earlier in the draft was the problem, not the panic move for Losman when Donahoe lost out on Roethlisberger.

If Sammy Watkins had turned out nobody would be saying this Sometimes you need to shoot your load and there are many tales of it working out or not working out for both sides

Same **** every year. I'm not going to say they absolutely have to draft a WR in R1 and obviously I don't know how they have their board graded. But otherwise, I agree. If you want to prevent that scenario you described with a defensive pick, you're going to need to draft an all pro at 28. Realistically, well, good luck with that.

My thoughts are.. if we do not draft a WR day 1, These boards will blow up... My popcorn is ready. :\

So what would it take to move to #8 to get Odunze? 2024 1st and 2nd and 2025 1st? Is #8 enough? Chicago seems to have him marked at #9.

This is supposed to be a bad draft for DE. I'd prefer we wait on any early DE

100% this. Let’s continue being the team with a franchise QB that doesn’t give him weapons. This roster SUCKS outside of Josh. Josh is THE ONLY elite guy on the team. Let that sink in. Wasting a pick on a DE who won’t pan out is a disaster waiting to happen. Even if they kind of hit on a DE, that’s not going to fix all the holes we have. Just invest in josh and try to win that way.

I like 25- 40 range for Bills. if they really like this Kid. that is likely very doable. Going up and or going down. they could even possibly still pick in the first if Legette made it to the second round or to 40 ! and Beane had made a deal to lock him in. Could be done ??

"I love the uneducated"- Guy who carries a pizza like a book.

I don't think it's a certainty that they draft a WR at all. Latu and DeJean will be two players the Bills would be highly interested in, though Latu would have some medical questions. As for the WR depth...if they go another direction at 28, I think it likely forces a trade up in R2. There's good depth at WR, but once the run starts, they're going to fly off the board quick, and it's going to be getting very thin around the middle of R2. Late 1st round DEs scare the hell out of me, anyway, but I'd be particularly concerned right now that a rookie would end up buried as the #4 on the depth chart, average 8 plays per game and have two sacks and a dozen tackles by the end of the year.

Marvin Harrison Jr., Ohio State - Cardinals Rome Odunze, Washington - Bears Ladd McConkey, Georgia - Bills Brian Thomas Jr., LSU - Colts Xavier Worthy Texas- Ravens Bonus Bills pick - Ladd McConkey

the best party about the small hump up is that it allows BPA and position of need to align, thats good business in my book. they make their big board and stick to it.... if you see a big talent gap dropoff on whos going to be available, you sacrifice to go get him..... BPA, need, and avoiding reaching/overdrafting in your original draft position

If they really like a WR ? I want to Bills to get him. I And I mean go after him Have alot more faith in McBeanes the last few drafts. But this pick ? If they truly are locked on ? And willing to spend draft capital ? They best nail it. I would be fine , with WRs / two from the second Rd if they see what they like and it falls well enough. And use the first pick for BPA of need lol

Not enough, need at least 4 more.

FINAL VERSION 3.0 NOTE: Had more fun with this one, more aggressive on some of the potential trades tonight. Chicago - Caleb Williams, QB, USC: No brainer here, everything points to this being their guy. Washington - Jayden Daniels, QB, LSU: I have believed this pick to be Drake Maye in v1.0 and 2.0, and I have someone I trust who has insight who told me that both QB's were in play and had supporters inside, and Maye got momentum there for a little bit. I have not gotten a recent update to know for sure if there is still a chance Maye could go here or not, but given most buzz out there is still sticking with Jayden, I am reluctantly changing this to Jayden even though I won't at all be surprised if this was Maye. *TRADE* - Vikings (previous Patriots) - Drake Maye, QB, UNC: In a historic multi team trade...Vikings, Patriots, Cardinals make draft history. Minnesota decides to pull the trigger after Maye gets past Washington and Patriots have deal in place with GM Ossenfort (formerly of NE) to safely go back 1 where Cardinals also go back with Chargers so they can still get their QB and Cards still get MHJ and Chargers going to 11 where they can safely address OL. *TRADE* Patriots (previous Cardinals) - JJ McCarthy, QB, Michigan: With a deal in place with Cards before moving off 3, they still get their QB and net some extra draft ammo. *TRADE* Cardinals (previous Chargers) - Marvin Harrison Jr, WR, Ohio St: hNo team has more power in this draft than the Cardinals who brilliantly add more draft assets to an already treasure trove of picks while still getting their guy. Giants - Malik Nabers, WR, LSU: Missing out on moving up, they take a major weapon in Nabers to help address what is an anemic offensive group. Titans - Joe Alt, OT, Notre Dame: Not a lot to say here, maybe the safest mock pick in the draft outside Caleb...Having the best OT in this draft fall in their lap here is a gift they sprint to the podium to select. Atlanta - Byron Murphy, DL, Texas: Atlanta looks to bolster their DL with the best DT in the draft who is a guy that just moves different than the other DT's in the draft, who can get off the ball and shoot the gaps to wreak havoc. He is as much a force against the run as he is the pass as well and who could become an anchor up front for Atlanta for years to come. One of the edge rushers could be in this spot too such as Turner or Verse. *TRADE* - Bills (previous Bears) - Rome Odunze, WR, Washington: Im skeptical we do this TBH, but its a version 3 mock and I am taking a few more risks and liberties here on the news we are being aggressive to move up. Bills get their absolute stud WR who seems built to be in the Bills locker room for the next stage of Allens prime. *TRADE* Colts (previous NY Jets) - Brock Bowers, TE, Georgia: With the Jets missing out on one of the big 3 WR's, they move back and pick up some extra draft ammo and Colts get maybe the biggest mismatch creator in the draft and a young QB's best friend in Brock. *TRADE* Chargers (previous Vikings & Cardinals) - JC Latham, OT, Alabama: This is best case for Chargers, hey get to trade back adding more picks and land the guy they really covet in JC Latham who should be here at 11. Broncos - Bo Nix, QB, Oregon: Broncos explore trading back, but ultimately go ahead and take their QB and not mess around. Raiders - Michael Penix, QB, Washington: After missing out on going up to get Daniels, the Raiders pull the trigger on Penix who by all reports they are also very high on. Saints - Olu Fashanu, OT, Penn St: With big needs at OT, Saints also have the draft fall well and are able to take the 2nd best OT prospect in the draft. *TRADE* NY Jets (previous Colts) - Brian Thomas Jr, WR, LSU: Jets get their weapon for Rodgers while still picking up some extra picks from the earlier trade down to probably address OL to help protect Rodgers. TRADE* Eagles (previous Seattle) - Quinyon Mitchell, CB, Toledo: After giving up the most TD passes in the league, the Eagles need to address CB in the worst way, and if Mitchell getting into the mid teens they see the opportunity to go up and get one many see as the best corner in the draft. Jaguars - Xavier Worthy, WR, Texas: Jags need to keep pace with Houston, and not sure Kirk, Davis, Zay combo is scaring anyone and look to add some explosion so they can see if TD Jesus is really the long term answer at QB. Bengals - Troy Fatanu, OL, Washington: Bengals have to find a way to keep Burrow on his feet and healthy and signing Trent Brown on a one year deal with his injury history isn't enough to keep them from looking to the future here. LA Rams - Laiatu Latu, EDGE, UCLA: Buzz here is that McVay is gonna go offense in his first ever first round pick and is trying to trade up. Not getting into the top 10, Rams stay put and bolster their pass rush with maybe the best pure edge rusher in the draft. Pittsburgh - Graham Barton, IOL, Duke: Steelers need a Center and here is their chance to add maybe the best IOL prospect in the draft who can potentially come in and shore up that Center position for years to come. Miami - Dallas Turner, EDGE, Alabama - The trenches for Miami are an absolute mess and they could go OL or DL here, but with steep drop off on the DL after the first round, they take one of the best pass rushers in the draft, especially given the plethora of JAGS they brought in FA are nothing more than role players. *TRADE* Seattle (via Eagles) Jared Verse, EDGE, Florida St: Seattle has the draft fall great for them after trading back with Eagles and still getting one of the premiere edge rushers in this draft to help bolster their ailing DL. *TRADE* Commanders (previously Vikings, Patriots, & Chargers) - Taliese Fuaga, OT, Oregon St: Commanders are aggressively looking to move for an OT and they move up to get one of the best in Fuaga. Chargers, looking to rebuild both sides of the trenches and address WR in this draft see an opportunity to load up more picks here on days 2 and 3 to do just that. Dallas - Amarius Mims, OT, Georgia: Dallas wouldn't surprise me to take a WR here, but I think the smarter play is address the obvious needs on the OL with the guy with the most upside. Packers - Nate Wiggins, CB, Clemson: With the trade of Douglas to the Bills, GB looks to the draft to find its next CB opposite Jaire and take one of the top corners in the draft in Wiggins. If Wiggins is gone in the real draft here, I can also see some OL help in bound with this pick as well. Tampa Bay - Chop Robinson, EDGE, Penn St: With pass rushers dropping off soon, Bucs look to bolster that unit with the explosive Chop Robinson. Arizona - Jer'Zhan Newton, DL, Illinois: As I had in v2.0, Newton has been vocal about loving the Cardinals and if he is here I think this will most likely be the pick as AZ looks to bolster a unit very much in need of the help. *TRADE* Bears (previously Buffalo) - Darius Robinson, DL, Missouri: After the trade down with the Bills, the Bears take the versatile Robinson who can help inside and on the Edge. Detroit - Cooper DeJean, CB, Iowa: Lions could very well take Adonai Mitchell here or even someone on the OL, but with a high powered offense already in stow, I have changed my mind and have them addressing their biggest need and taking the talented corner from Alabama to help bolster their defense. Ravens - Jordan Morgan, OL, Arizona: I have moved off WR here for Ravens given the fact they lost 3 OL this offseason and if they want Lamar and Henry to be at their best, they need to bolster this unit and Morgan can potentially play RT or G giving them a versatile player to plug in. 49ers - Ladd McConkey, WR, Georgia: With a major WR run expected to begin at the top of round 2, 49ers look to add one with them looking at having to move Aiyuk possibly at some point. Chiefs - Adonai Mitchell, WR, Texas: I still think Ja'Lynn Polk could be in play here, or potentially OL or someone like Kool-Aid, but word is they want to add more speed at WR and have been trying to move up for that, so thinking Mitchell could be a guy here not previously believed to get to this pick. As I mentioned at the top...I took a few more chances and liberties with this based on some of the latest buzz and intel. Not sure which version of my mocks ends up more accurate, but I really did not have the time to put into this third version as I wanted, in fact, its a minor miracle I even got it done TBH. So excuse any errors that I may have missed as I moved guys and teams around the board. But it was fun, and wanted to finish before draft night because this may be the most interesting draft I can remember having where there are so many combinations of what could go down tonight. Not to mention there are some players around the NFL who could be in play and part of trades come draft night. Gonna be a fun night! CHEERS!

LOL, I wouldn't doubt it, I would not at all be surprised with the pick. However, I do think Beane will pull those 2025 picks out and create at least 2 3rd rd....if not a 2nd and 3rd.

I'm not dismissing the other issues. I'm accepting that constant investment at the same positions, to the detriment of the WR room, has not been a successful strategy. Draft a pass rusher at 28, it won't make a difference in the playoffs. You know it and I know it. Adding a WR will make a difference.

Bill was never a draft guru …

Seems like as good a time as any for them to pick a qb Weak Jayden Daniels looking skinny and slight but that's a nice suit

Please, please, please, please, please, please get someone really really good so we can win the Superbowl this year Beanie Baby.
