  1. It boggles my mind that people are picking Jonah Williams. Short-armed unathletic college LTs become average OGs in the NFL. Even Robert Gallery, who was a better college LT than Williams had to move to Guard. Taylor & Dillard will be very good OTs. Taylor is better as of now, but I actually think Dillard has the best chance to be a really good LT. I'd actually rather have Risner than Williams, he's RT only but will be a stud there.
  2. Taylor & it's not close. Taylor is a very good RT from Day 1, with the feet & ability to eventually play LT. Jonah Williams is a Guard at the NFL level, I don't think there's any way he could play LT in the NFL.
  3. I think Harry is the most ready to be a solid contributor as a rookie out of this WR class. I don't think he makes it pick #40. I'd love a trade down & draft him in the back half of Round 1.
  4. Risner is an absolute beast, he would make somebody else expendable, no way he's flex guy. I honestly wouldn't be suprised is Risner was a rookie pro bowler.
  5. This will be difficult to top: 9: Ed Oliver- DT, Houston 40: Chris Lindstrom- OG, Boston College 74: Andy Isabella- WR, UMass 112: David Montgomery- RB, Iowa State 131: Zach Gentry- TE, Michigan 147: Anthony Johnson- WR, Buffalo 158: Wyatt Ray- Edge, Boston College
  6. Well we already have 1 new OG in Long. At this point, it looks like Teller is a starter by default. I'm nearly 100% sure we'll be adding either a Guard, Center, or both in the draft/FA. Long could be our Center if we don't add one, and that'd be good for Teller's chances. I'd personally rather have Teller be depth this year while he develops, but he may end up starting, and very well may be a serviceable starter with better talent around him.
  7. Brown had a solid year and is now set to get paid like a top-5 LT. He may not even be a LT in a non-Patriots offense, let alone a good one. He's a good player, but not a great one, this has classic overpay written all over it. The Derrick Dockery & Langston Walker signings are still too fresh in my mind... Build your O-line through the draft & by signing young "up & comers" fresh off their rookie deal.
  8. Wow at Isabella at #20. He's going to be a much better pro than the majority of these guys.
  9. NE's offense has the ability to mask subpar OT play, because the ball is literally out in 1.5 seconds on passing plays. Nate Solder was never a very good LT in NE, but he was highly rated because he did his job for those 1.5 seconds. He got paid by the Giants for that, and went on to suck for them, because they run a more traditional passing offense. Somebody will now overpay Trent Brown & the same thing will happen. I hope it's not Buffalo.
  10. I would love Ridley or Harry in the 2nd. Jawaan Taylor & Ridley/Harry in the 1st & 2nd beats the heck out of taking Metcalf & a 3rd tier OL prospect.
  11. It's his extreme awkwardness when he changes direction that causes him to slip, it's not the slipping that causes him to look awkward. This a huge red flag.
  12. I remember that game well. I live in IL, so I went to a local sports bar to watch the game with a friend who's a huge Steelers fan. He & his son wore Steelers jerseys, my son & I wore our Bills jerseys. I was sure we'd dominate, but it didn't end well for us... We couldn't even slow Leveon Bell down. The only positive from that game was picking off Roethlisberger 3 times.
  13. 9 is too early for either, but I am much more confident in Hockenson to become a solid player. Metcalf is has a good chance to be this year's Josh Doctson first round flameout.
  14. Watching Burns in his FSU highlights, he looks way too skinny to play 4-3 DE. I hate to say it, but he is built like Maybin was at Notre Dame- who ironically also played at 230lbs & bulked up to almost 250 for the combine. I know Burns is a much more complete player than Maybin could ever dream of being, but the body comparisons are close.
  15. After all the "Combine Heros" who have burned GMs over the past 25 years, you'd think this stuff wouldn't happen. Metcalf's 40-time in shorts, bench press, and muscularity isn't the same as ability to run routes, catch contested balls, and producing like a WR1 on the field. He may look, run, & jump like Julio Jones- but that isn't enough to make him a star in the NFL. I'm VERY concerned about his agility numbers. Sure, he may end up a really good player in time. But he is an extremely raw prospect at this point, and can basically only run fly patterns. I want no part of him the first round, and I hope he's somebody else's mistake.
  16. Funchess is "just a guy", he doesn't have the ability to separate, and is not particularly good at catching contested balls. I wouldn't be suprised if Duke Williams has a better NFL career than him. That said, I'd rather we spend 1.9M/year on a JAG like Funchess than 10M+/year for another JAG in Tyrell Williams.
  17. There is no way Rosen is worth anything more than a mid-2nd to anybody. Seeing him play in the NFL lowered his stock significantly.
  18. If the rookie we draft is DK Metcalf, there's no way he's ready to start in year 1. That guy is as raw of a first round WR prospect I've ever seen. He makes Zay's route running look polished. Zay will probably still be our Slot WR in 2019.
  19. Kyler Murray spending most of today on the immersion table, hoping to stretch an extra half inch to measure 5'9'...
  20. Metcalf is a much better athlete than he is a WR. I don't want to spend a first rounder on a guy who can only run a partial route tree, just because he's fast & jacked. His game film is pretty "meh".
  21. The dude has 21 catches on 60 targets in his NFL career. There's no way the bengals get higher than a late 4th. Another cautionary tale about why game film matters a lot more than Combine numbers. I'd be ok with trading a low pick for him, but his skillset is awfully similar to Foster.
  22. I'd be cool with a 1yr reasonable deal. Crabtree isn't a stud anymore, but a vet presence would really help Zay, Foster, & a rookie WR. Not to mention our young QB.
  23. I can't see any team giving up a first rounder for Rosen after having seen him play in the NFL. Maybe a team like the Giants would pony up a 2nd.
  24. I actually strained a muscle in my ribs shouting obscenities when the Allen pick was announced. I was dead wrong, I just ordered a Josh Allen jersey this week. I couldn't be more excited about his future as a Bill, and wouldn't trade him for any other QB from the 2018 draft. I got used to seeing draft picks looking disappointed upon being drafted by Buffalo, it was awesome to see a guy that happy about it.
