this would be a fantastic signing. I'm surprised he's still around

Versatility. Another seemingly great depth signing.

OP is getting an early start to the weekend with the day-drinking!

Agree with this. But we should not have picked him at #19. He plays like a guy drafted in the 2nd or 3rd, where he should have been taken. He's still good depth and/or that ability to be an average to above-average starter, and as you stated, last year was his best, so I'd def exercise the 5th year option.

agreed. taking White if he is there at 9 or getting a haul (switch 1 and get 2nd) from PIt or Balt.

as long as 4of those 5 are against the pats and jets!

Tillery scaring me a bit after reading this. Particularly the part about his actions on Twitter, and stomping on opposing players, plus inconsistent effort prior to last season: https://thedraftnetwork.com/player/jerry-tillery

I can envision a scenario where Bean thinks that he is the BPA at #9. He does check a lot of boxes for the OL. But I think the Bills also want a plug and play run blocker to setup the run game, in turn opening the passing game. I'm not sure they would take someone who is not great at run blocking. (but, as you stated, it could be a rep thing that the OL coach believes he can fix).

Hughes is often in a holding pattern by other teams OL. Get him some help, and that should likely decrease (hopefully).

I'd like Tillery in the 2nd, and Wise from KU later in the draft.

l think he's the best QB in the draft.

I'm not a gambler, but if there was an in-stadium app (I'm not leaving my seat to gamble) about who will have the most 1st downs, rushing yards, sacks, etc. Perhaps each quarter, or by half, I'd def play if the buy-in was reasonable (under $5). It would also, as another poster stated, keep the game interesting when we are blowing out other teams!

the White on OBJ matchup will be great.

If someone like Bosa falls, I see Bean going for it. Otherwise, I see BPA, who is either a DT, MLB (White--which is likely leading to a trade-down), or TE if the Bills are that high on Hock.

He'd be a fantastic addition. And would totally eliminate the "need" to draft a WR. I'd swap 1st, and send the 2nd for him.

I like it. Getting veterans for depth, and then using the draft to get immediate (and cost-controlled) impact players. Sounds like this guy may have positional flexibility (3 ways: ST, safety and LB), and that's valuable as well in depth guys.

it will be the top CB available.

good depth player. I believe we upgrade the Edge position in the draft.

I'd take him in the 2nd, but no way would trade back into the 1st for him. I'm only doing that for Hock. That said, White and Rock would be a formidable CB tandem. Can Wallace move to a backup CB/Safety role?

I don't get PFF's center grade on Morse. How is a guy who was: (1) the center for the most dynamic QB in the league last year only #13; and (2) a center who has not given up a sack since his rookie year #13. Something is off here.

I'd be fine with it. Hopefully the 2020 1st is a low one !

I still think you need another player at 9. Metcalf is not going to carry your team. You can get a WR later in the draft that you can build a passing game around. I think I'm not sure Megatron ever got the Lions to the SB. Also, Megatron was much more dominate in college. I'd rather take Campbell, Brown (Old Miss) or Ridley later in the draft.

DO IT!!!!! I think Bean would do that. Can you imagine a young D with the following in place: CB (White/perhaps Wallace). LB (Milano, Edmunds), Edge: Bosa. Secondary: Hyde/Poyer. Then get DL (Wise from Kansas) in like Rd. 3. I'd trade 9, and a second to get Bosa. Gary is interesting. his numbers in college are not impressive AT ALL. Yet some are projecting him as a top 10 pick. That scares me. Hopefully Oakland takes him, and White falls to us.

I'm glad the OP posted this. I've thought White would be the BPA when we pick for a while. If he is there at 9, there are only two options: (1) Draft White. For the, "why move Edmunds outside" crowd, Edmunds is 20 years old, he can learn OLB. Lorax is gone after this season. Edmunds, Milano, and White=set at LB for a decade. You know what teams historically have good LB's: Ravens, Steelers, and even the Pats** Perennial playoff teams. A TE/DL could be taken later in the draft. We get the best LB in the draft, and still have 9 picks. We have enough to trade back into the 1st round and get whoever we want. (Hock/Simmons, etc.). (2) Trade down. If White is there, these teams would be interested: Cincy, Green Bay, Steelers, and Ravens. We could get quite the bounty trading to the Steelers/Ravens spot. And likely one of the top TE's or Simmons is available there. We would likely also pickup another 2nd round pick, enabling an OT and DL. Then go WR in 3rd. If White is there at 9, we win.

It's funny how something that looks terrible for a team at the time (the Jets trade) works out well for the Bills. We paid less to get Allen, who has a much higher ceiling, we also got a top MLB in the draft, and have 10 picks this year. I wonder if the NJ Jets are furious now!!!
