Pancho Billa on phone with the Bills gives pick

Got choked up watching that. Things like this make me really hope we have the right owner, front office, and coach in place because they are truly phenomenal to do something like that. -

So sad. Thoughts and prayers to Pancho and his family. God bless his kids. My mother-in-law just entered hospice. F cancer. Enough is enough already. -
RD 1, Pick 9: DT Ed Oliver, University of Houston
ExWNYer replied to SDS's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Agreed. I posted this in the other draft thread... Pete Prisco (for what little it's worth): 3 (Jets) Quinnen Williams, DT, Alabama I love this pick. I could make a case for Josh Allen as the Jets needed more of a pure pass rusher, but this kid will be dominant. People in the league have compared him to Reggie White, let's slow down a bit on that, but this kid is a dominating player. Grade: A 9 (Bills) Ed Oliver, DT, Houston I thought he was misused at Houston. I think this kid is going to be special at the next level. He is not Aaron Donald, I don't like that comparison. He plays a lot like John Randle and Randle was a Hall of Famer. This kid is going to be a good player for Buffalo. Grade: A 13 (Dolphins) Christian Wilkins, DT, Clemson This is my favorite pick of the entire draft so far. Love this pick. I think this kid is going to be a star. I was all over Grady Jarrett when he was picked and I think Wilkins could be even better. This is a good building block for Brian Flores and his staff. Grade: A+ 32 (Patriots) N'Keal Harry, WR, Arizona State I watched every one of his games and believe me it pains me to give this a 'C+,' but I just think there were better options. One thing when you look at the Patriots is they don't play fast outside, they needed to get faster. Maybe they expect Josh Gordon to come back at some point, but, for me I would have taken Parris Campbell or one of those guys, a faster, more athletic receiver. I don't love this pick. Grade: C+ -

That's interesting how they see it differently. I recorded all 3 broadcasts and ABC had the most coverage of the Bills pick by far. Nice interview with Ed's brother, Marcus, and his dad. Both were crying tears of joy. Very touching to see their family dream come to fruition. -

After the pick, NFL Network's Daniel Jeremiah compared him to Vikings DT John Randle. more so than Donald. -

Before the draft started, I had resigned myself to the fact that the Bills were getting a very nice 'consolation prize' in Jonah Williams. I am thrilled that Ed Oliver fell to them at 9. The first 8 picks couldn't have fallen much better in the Bills' favor with huge assists from the Raiduhs and G-men. Welcome to Buffalo, Ed! ?
