Below is my Bills Mock V2 and also my overall mock from picks 1-8 to get to our pick. I have us doing a trade, so then mocked it to where I think we will be picking. Im only going to mock our picks to round 4, pretty pointless after that.
DISCLOSURE: Mocks are pretty pointless overall, so this is more of a "What would I do" if I was Beane based on what we know about Beane. I do believe this is all feasible and makes sense, but its a hard year to predict anything and even harder to accurately predict trades. So gonna have fun with it.
Honestly, this year is one of the hardest in recent memory to mock the top 10. There are no "obvious" choices outside of Murray really. Everyone at every spot after AZ could go multiple directions with no clear cut obvious choice really, mainly because its hard to predict who is on the board still. Normally you have a pretty good feel for the top 5, but not this year. Will be a fun draft IMO for this reason.
- AZ: Kyler Murray - Until I hear something otherwise, this seems like the only real sure bet right now.
- SF: Quennin Williams - 4 first round DE's on the roster, including an expensive Dee Ford. DT helps them more and makes more sense than Bosa IMO.
- NYJ: Nick Bosa - Talk of Oliver love here, but if Bosa gets past SF I think he is the pick.
- OAK: Josh Allen - They desperately need pass rush and Allen is chosen to do just that.
- TB: Devin White - Could be Oliver with McCoy trade talk, but they also need to replace Kwon. Until I see McCoy is really on the move, I am going White here.
- NYG: Ed Oliver - One would think it could be Haskins here, but all the talk is that Gettleman wants D here and Ed Oliver is BPA on DL.
- JAX: Jawaan Taylor - The only way Foles can succeed is with pass protection. JAX PassPro sucks, so I think they take the local boy to try and build up the line to protect Foles
- DET: Rashaan Gary - They need to replace Ansah, so they could also go Sweat here. But Gary has more versatility along the line.
- MIA: TRADE (BUF) - Drew Lock - Miami trades to get ahead of Broncos to get Lock (TRADE: Bills trade #9 to Miami for #13 and #48)
- DEN: TJ Hockenson - Could also be Devin Bush, but Flacco has always used his TE's and Hockenson is a complete TE who helps block too after some OL losses
- CIN: Montez Sweat - Popular pick here is a QB and Dwayne Haskins is on the board. But I think they want to see what new regime can do with Andy first and will jump at taking Sweat
- GB: Devin Bush - LB is a big need, but could also see them go Jonah Williams or Andre Dillard to help keep Aaron healthy
- BUF: We are on the clock!
I just have a feeling someone like Miami is going to try and get in front of some of the teams who may go QB.
At 13 now, I can see several guys who are there in this mock and who could be there depending on how the draft fell. On my board, guys like Jonah or Dillard are there along with DT Wilkins and WR DK Metcalf. However, could also see TJ falling to us at 13 or even Montez Sweat slipping to us too. But drafting obviously here on how this mock fell...
Buffalo' draft picks through 5 rounds: #13 #40, #48, #74, #112, #131, #147, #158
#13 BUF: DK Metcalf - Beane goes and gets this years freakishly high ceiling athlete (like Allen and Edmunds last year) to be a major weapon for Josh.
TRADE ALERT - Bills trade up back into the first with Seattle. Bills get #21 and Seattle gets #40, #74, and #112 - Seattle wants more picks...we trade with them but not for Clark.
#21 - BUF: Christian Wilkins (or maybe Simmons) - They get their DT here...now this could also be a place to get a TE like say Noah, but I think DT value will be too big to pass up and a TE can be had next...as you will see...
TRADE ALERT - Buffalo trades up again with NYG - Bills get #37 and Giants get #48, #181, and Zay Jones
#37 - BUF: Irv Smith - After getting their DT in round 1 trade up, they go after another weapon for Josh in Irv Smith
#137 - BUF: Bryce Love - If Singletary is here, he would be the pick over Love I believe. Could also be Henderson...either way I suspect there will be an interesting RB lingering around here.
Final tally: Bills get Metcalf, Wilkins, Irv, and Love in rounds 1-4. I would love this draft.
I honestly could mock our picks very differently using the same trades and love those outcomes too. Maybe they take Hock at 13, the DT at 21 still, and N'Keal Harry at 37 for example. Or they could even go Wilkins at 13, Fant at 21 and Harry at 37...or Harry at 21 and Irv at 37. They could also go Sweat or Burns at 13 too. Either way, I think our first 3 picks could be WR, DT/EDGE, and TE in some order if our picks were 13, 21 and 37 after these trades.
NOTE: I also would not be surprised if after the trade down if we used one of our second rounders to trade for Clowney.
Feel free to tear it apart, really isn't going to be any right or wrong opinions, its just a dumb mock lol. Thanks for reading if you got this far, cheers
If you drop to #13 with Sweat, Hockenson and Bush on the board and then draft a WR I'lll be a little more than pissed

Nah brah, nothing was missed.
Rant was warrented and id do it again and more obnoxiously if you make me do it again. Your point isnt A, complicated B, new discussion (both initial and extended points within the topic C, assumed to a degree that football people who make football decisions understand football drafts and how picks are both valued and utilized. If you didnt have to stick up for your own lazy post, youd have the time to search and find this has already been covered ad nauseam.
So, ya... double down and make it even more warrented. On second thought, maybe just start another thread to really teach me a lesson:)
It doesnt REALLY make me mad. My time was wasted by the poster being lazy, so i get to dog em. Its only fair. Besides, its easy to ignore here and there but when its a this blatant of a repeat thread itll be noted
Good to know The arrogant "thread police" is on duty.

Keep trading down so we can have the entire 7th round to ourselves?. Or get 1 or 2 DL, a TE, WR, and a linebacker even if it means trading up to secure the guys you want.

Beane: Hi, John. This is Brandon Beane. I wanted to talk to you about a potential trade for Frank Clark. I'm willing to offer you the 9th pick and our second 4th round pick for him and your first pick.
John Schneider: Wow. That's very generous, Brandon. Hold on one second. <dials Frank Clark> Frank, Brandon Beane from the Buffalo Bills has called me to ask about your services.
Frank: I don't want to go to Buffalo.
John: Brandon, I'm sorry. But, Frank won't agree to a trade to Buffalo. What's that? <to Frank> Frank, Brandon says he's willing to BEAT Demarcus Lawrence's deal by offering you 5 years, $120 million with $70 million guaranteed.
Frank: Man, I told you, I DON'T want to go to Buffalo. I want to WIN! I don't want to sit at home in January for the next 5 years!I get it. Sitting in the waiting room, waiting to see your therapist, can really cause impatience and aggravation . Be patient. I bet he has a lollipop with your name on it in his desk drawer.

Really - Holyfield? He will be lucky to be drafted. If it weren't for his name, he wouldn't be talked about at all. He is slow, stiff, and not instinctual - basically just a battering ram with a famous dad.
I am going to stop scouting Michael Jackson's son right now then.

Because I'm not confused about what I mean when I say "contribute offensively", which I described quite clearly multiple times in this thread.
When you draft an OT that high, you're doing so because you believe that he's an elite pass protector and great run blocker, which means he's having a big impact on the game on every offensive snap.
If you intend to draft a TE in the top-10, then he better be a guy that is a great blocker and an elite pass catcher. Because if he's not an elite pass catcher, then he's only going to be marginally more useful than playing an extra offensive lineman on every down...and that's not worth a top-10 pick.
You said what I've tried to convey over the years. Only you were much better and more concise then this old man is anymore . Different positions have different values and thus different considerations when drafting, especially in round 1

Okay I have pretty much finalised my grading work for this draft so here are my sleepers. Some are mid round guys on whom the consensus is lower some are late round fliers.
TE Josh Oliver, San Diego State
Consensus: 3rd-4th rounder
On my board: 2nd rounder
I think this guy could end up being the best tight end in this class. He has terrific size and speed for the position, and good hands and a big catch radius. Runs routes (basically a full tree) and separates better than some of the highly regard receivers in this class and while his blocking technique needs some work he shows no lack of willingness or desire to block and can win physically.
S Malik Gant, Marshall
Consensus: 5th rounder
On my board: 3rd rounder
Former walk on at Marshall who later earned a scholarship. All effort on every play. Bit of a throwback in the sense that when he hits he properly hits. Goes downhill better than he backpedals but he has decent ball skills and can play special teams.
WR Alex Wesley, Northern Colorado
Consensus: UDFA
On my board: 6th-7th rounder
I was intrigued by this kid’s combine workouts and went off and managed to find a couple of bits of film on the internet. He has obviously played against low end competition but he is an intriguing slot/gadget guy with excellent speed and shiftiness. Also runs down field and hits on special teams. I’d be willing to throw a late round pick at him.
DT Cortez Broughton, Cincinnati
Consensus: 4th-5th rounder
On my board: 3rd rounder
Has started to generate some major buzz the last few weeks and may end up going earlier than a lot of people expected. A little undersized as a defensive tackle but so explosive off the ball it is frightening. Needs to improve his technique when he gets there to shed blockers and finish plays but his potential is sky high.
ILB, Tyrel Dodson, Texas A&M
Consensus: 7th round / UDFA
On my board: 4th rounder
A little undersized but a fast, instinctive linebacker who can cover and provides some pass rush upside. Feel like he is an outside off the ball linebacker in the NFL and he just screams out a fit for Sean McDermott’s scheme. Groomed as a long term replacement for Lorenzo as the SAM?
S, Chris Johnson, North Alabama
Consensus: UDFA
On my board: 5th-6th rounder
Big, fast, instinctive, ball skills, this guy was a star of the East-West Shrine Game and has sky high potential. Needs to be smoother in and out of breaks and with changes of direction in order to shadow receivers and could improve his tackling technique but as a developmental guy there is talent here.
DE, Jordan Brailford, Oklahoma State
Consensus: 5th-6th rounder
My board: 4th rounder
Strong, well balanced with the speed to power conversion that teams look for. When he gets there he is a ferocious finisher at the point of contact. Needs to improve his range of pass rush moves (at the moment it is bull rush or nothing) but has early value as a sub package pass rusher and can develop from there.
I wish you could spend a little more time on research !!! Thanks brother

A guy I saw on three occasions that I thought was very good is ILB Germaine Pratt (NC STATE). I don't know if he is rated a 2nd rounder or an UDFA but he looks like he could be a good player for us. Any thoughts from Draftniks ? Didn't read all pages to see if he was already mentioned ---> too lazy

I think if the Bills dont get a RB they like in the 3rd or 4th round then they will sign Yeldon after the draft. Good move for a 3rd RB.
You could be spot on. Yeldon is a quality back. Underrated in my opinion...… not great, but would upgrade the position

I know what you mean wrt Newsome. It would be crazy if he went to the Skins!!!
I have seen every game Miller has played and really did notice steady improvement. He never played on a bad defense, the talent around him was consistent but did not improve from season to season but Miller did.
Would a kid like this be an asset in Nickel Packages? I am thinking that he wouldn't have many coverage responsibilities in a nickel and could just go after quarterbacks.
I like this thought .. a lot

If they truly love someone, then do whatever it takes. It looks like there are only approx. 15 or so elite players so I am against trading back too far. I want quality not just quantity. I actually love the thought of Devin White being on our team rather than on the Jets. He is every bit the player Roquan Smith is IMO. Move Edmunds to OLB. it won't happen but I would like that.... and I'm probably a minority of 1.

Yea... the off the ball linebacker class is not good. The drop off after the two Devin's is significant. Mack Wilson I have a lower 2nd on.... and after him..... it is 3rd/4th borderline guys.
Agree 100 %. The drop off is frightening this time

A crap ton of trade downs and extra picks. Not sure how it only gets a B grade.
Your score is: 30166 (GRADE: B+)
Your Picks:
Round 1 Pick 31 (LAR): AJ Brown, WR, Ole Miss (A-)
Round 2 Pick 8: DreMont Jones, DT, Ohio St. (A-)
Round 2 Pick 19 (TENN): Taylor Rapp, SS/FS, Washington (A)
Round 2 Pick 22 (HOU): NKeal Harry, WR, Arizona St. (A)
Round 2 Pick 23 (HOU): Irv Smith Jr, TE, Alabama (B+)
Round 2 Pick 28 (LAC): Chase Winovich, DE, Michigan (A)
Round 3 Pick 10: Darrell Henderson, RB, Memphis (A)
Round 3 Pick 30 (LAR): Tytus Howard, OT, Alabama State (A+)
Round 3 Pick 32 (WASH): Connor McGovern, C/OG, Penn St. (A+)
Round 3 Pick 35 (LAR): Joe Jackson, DE, Miami (Fla.) (A+)
Round 4 Pick 10: Christian Miller, OLB, Alabama (A+)
Round 4 Pick 29: Corey Ballentine, CB, Washburn (A)
Round 5 Pick 9: Bobby Okereke, OLB/ILB, Stanford (A-)
Round 5 Pick 20: David Long Jr, ILB/OLB, West Virginia (A)
Round 6 Pick 8: Albert Huggins, DT, Clemson (A+)
Round 7 Pick 11: Byron Cowart, DT/DE, Auburn (A+)
Round 7 Pick 14: Alex Bars, OG, Notre Dame (A)Because after the draft concludes there is still a major need at DT,DE and OT. there is a ton of guys who just aren't that good. Smith Jr. and Harry, I love but the Ohio St. is JAG and Winovich will be a wash out IMO. We can't draft one or two really good players and 14 JAG'S
