    Take one in the first round -- the Bills haven't DRAFTED a receiver in the 1st round in forever -- Sammy Watkins 2014

    2nd Round - Zay Jones 2017 - Bobby Trees 2013 - Marquise Goodwin 2013 (R3)

    The silver lining with having to play Bernard and trade for Douglas is that next year we'll have Bernard, Milano, White and Douglas, plus Benford

     

    I'm not sure after back to back years with an ACL and an Achilles, that White will ever again be an NFL quality CB1.  Our three starting CB's Douglas, T. Johnson and Benford are the highest graded trio in the league - Bills & Jets are only teams to have all 3 CB starters in the top 20.

     

    My biggest concern is DL & Edge - Inigo Montoya has an excellent post today about this on the site.

    Douglas turns 30 at the start of the 2024 season, so I don't know if it's wise to extend him beyond that?  It doesn't look as if they're giving up on Elam either. 

     

    Douglas is playing at a high level at CB.  I had seen some talk on the GB board that they thought with his size and tackling ability, he might spend the last couple of years of his career at FS.

    Instead of paying ST players who rarely make a tackle, find a guy about 7'6" that drags his knuckles when he walks to block FG and XP attempts. Just tell him to stand there, raise his arms and if he can get an inch or two of air, all the better.

    Spencer Brown is 6'8+ with 34+ inch arms, and a 31 inch vertical - may already have That kick blocker on the roster.

  5. A fascinating player in the draft is Oronde Gadsden II.  He's 6-5 225, but runs a 4.5.  Obviously has good bloodlines and was coached in HS by Patrick Surtain.  Know his dad played for the Fish, but that could be an interesting weapon for Josh.  Started out as a WR and supposedly has solid ball skills.

  6. We need a John Brown type.  If you have a 4.3 guy who can take the top off a defense and has reasonable ball skills, then Diggs, Shakir, Kincaid all become more effective.  Diggs is 30, an age when most wide receivers start to decline or have to deal with Injuries - see Keenan Allen, Mike Evans, Amari Cooper, and of late Tyreek Hill.

    We need four new WRs next year.

    I would keep Diggs, Shakir is here, and on a cheap contract.  I don't think we are going to be drafting high enough to get one of the "elite" WR's.  Beyond that we need 3 journeymen, given our cap issues.  Hoping Kincaid continues his growth, as he gives Josh a bit of a cheat code.

    Definitely---Josh is #9 in QB knockdowns, tied for 5th in QB hurries and tied for 34th in time in the pocket.

     

    Almost any other QB behind this line would be taking a much bigger beating.  Josh makes them look pretty good. 

    Bills have given up 20 sacks on the season which is best in the league.  They have recorded 50 sacks, which is 3rd in the league. 

     

    Top five teams in net sacks are: Bills, +30; Dolphins,+25;Chiefs, +23; Ravens, +18; 49ers, +15 - these are all top teams.
