He may or may not start but I think he’s going to get a chance to start. Likely in camp I think he’s going to get 33% of the starting team snaps at center early on to see what they have in him and if he looks the part that’s going to lead to more snaps.

Fins did a good job in getting Washington but as long as Tua’s the QB I am not worried about the Fins.

Seems like a balanced draft. Their first pick was on offense. Their next two picks were defense and then their next two picks were offense. The last two picks have been defense. 3 offense 4 defense and considering the Bills had more depth needs on Defense not shocking to see them go there

Post June 1st once Tre’s money hits they will have some options via free agency at WR and DE. At WR OBJ and Tyler Boyd are out on the market. At DE Yannick and Ogbah are available as are old Bills favorites Jerry Hughes and Shaq Lawson. I am not sure how they play it but if the Bills want more talent free agents are out there

Probably measurables or maybe he had an injury history?

I think he’s got great upside but I think they can also just get value from him being a solid rotational DE. His rookie year hopefully he can take those Shaq Lawson snaps and be productive in a niche role

End of the 5th round but your point stands it’s a solid pick. The Bills after their top 3 DE’s (Groot, AJE and Von) don’t have much there (Kingsley Jonathan and Toohill neither all that inspiring) so adding someone at the Edge for depth and development is solid. I do wonder if the Bills will look to bring back Shaq or another vet after June 1st?

Solomon is more of an Edge player

Bills got their Edge player and a solid prospect at that. The Bills needed someone to come in and compete for those 4th and 5th DE rotation spots. They also don’t have any DE’s besides Von under contract long term. So adding a cheap option is good

Kelvin Benjamin had a 1000 yard season his rookie year and after being hurt year 2 he had a 900 yard season in year 3. Had he had a better work ethic he probably would have been a really good player. So if Coleman is Kelvin Benjamin but with a better work ethic that’s probably going to be a home run pick. Without the work ethic he had good years as a rookie and a third year player.

They may ask Josh what traits he likes in a WR and then they look at the WR’s in the draft and take the one that fits the profile best.

Seems like a solid trade to go down 5 spots. My question is what do they do with 4 more picks? I think they can easily roster an Edge and CB but after taking an LB their places where they can go with those two other picks is shrinking. Maybe they are hoping to punt away a pick for a future selection or go for a kicker/punter?

They traded down 5 spots…

Seems like they went down 5 spots, wonder what they got?

You liked the 2010 CJ Spiller draft more than this one? Stop

I think they are good on offensive line with the drafting of Granger. They probably feel solid with Van Denmark as the swing tackle.

I didn’t think they would have gone LB but they seem to have gotten a good depth player who can do special teams. I really don’t understand the bitching about this draft. They got a WR and a lot of other solid needs and players. Now they added some Lb depth and special teams help. Not a bad draft at all.

It’s a great draft just good solid business. They got a WR with their first pick after two prudent trade downs then addressed two big defensive needs at S/DT. Then addressed two offensive non-WR needs in RB/C possibly adding a starting center all while adding a 4th round pick in 2025. The team still has 3 selections remaining and can get Edge and CB depth along with another WR or another lesser urgent need. Beane has had a great draft filling out the roster well while also adding a future me pick.

Love it depth on the offensive line sured up also could push for a start Spot great value

The Jets have a lot of big names on the roster but their fundamentals are always bad. They have a 41 year old QB coming off an Achilles tear…

Bills fans gotta stop obsessing over KC, like just worry about the Bills and how they get better. Beane has proven he’s one of the top 5 drafters in the league. So many of his later round picks exposed to waivers get claimed which shows you how respected his ability to draft is.

Ty Johnson

It was a need to be a RB3 I like the pick it fills a depth and development need.

I think they have about 5-6 spots where they think picks can get rostered. I don’t think they want to come away with 7 picks due to how two of their picks last season got placed on waivers. They badly need depth at CB, RB and DE that’s three positions where I feel confident they will make selections at. I also think WR, C and DT are in play.

I assumed Van Pran was gone too. I would love to see the Bills land Franklin or Van Pran somehow. I think offensively the Bills are going to take a RB for depth and special teams and I think they will take a WR or offensive linemen. Defensively Corner and DE are also likely with a second DT possible.
