  1. Ashton Jeanty of the Raiders.

     

    No one from the Bills on Defense. I will happily settle with Hairston as a starter and Sanders, Jackson as frequent rotation players, and one other guy as a solid bench guy (Strong, Hancock, or Walker).

  2. I am not denying he is more athletic than 90% of the US population.

     

    Will respectfully disagree on a great athlete right now.

     

    Pretty easy to be a good pickup basketball player when you weigh as much as Shaquille O'Neal and playing against other guys 100 lbs lighter and 5 inches shorter in those playground games.

     

    As far as playing DE in some cases, we are talking about Kentucky football and not playing Kentucky basketball competition.

     

    Not sure about his conditioning being helped. If there are real back issues at 20 years old that is a degenerative issue or a conditioning issue.

     

     

    Let's give it a year and we will see.

     

    Like I said, I hope I am wrong.

  3. I can agree with almost everything. Good thoughts.

     

    I would say that Walker is an unusually large young man, but I do not think in any way at this point one could call him a great athlete.

     

    I see him redshirting this year. Hopefully a season with the medical staff, strengths coach, nutritionist, and solid line coaching, he can become a solid starting 1T.

     

     

  4. Initial Reaction Grades

     

    Note: My grades reflect my initial reaction based on what I thought the needs of the team, value of pick (including if it was a trade up and the cost), potential making the roster, improving that particular position, and who else may have been available

     

    Hairston B+/A-

    TJ Sanders C-C+

    Jackson B+/A-

    Walker C/C+

    Hancock B/B+

    Hawes C-/C

    Strong B+/A-

    Lundt C-/C

    Prather C+/B-

     

    I think Hairston, Sanders, and Jackson all have potential. I think the price for Sanders was just too high. I think he will be good. I would've preferred a highly rated 1T in the 2nd.

     

    Walker is a project. Needs to lose about 40-50 lbs and put on 20 lbs of muscle by September to be more than #50-#53 on the roster. The right position. A bigger guy that we need. I hope I am wrong about him.

     

    Hancock and Strong I think are solid depth, and I can see one of them becoming an above average starter.

     

    Hawes, Lundt, and Prather are projects, but this is to be expected.

  5. I think the OP may believe that Shenault or someone else will be the primary returner.

     

    I would keep Codrington and have Dane Jackson instead of Hamlin and project Lundt to PS on this initial projection.

  6. No major disagreement on this list.

     

    The goal is to raise both the ceiling and have a high floor.

     

    Theoretically, the Bills have done that in most areas.

     

    I see the classic Beane move of trading maybe an OL, DL, or CB for a late day 3 pick for 2026 after or around camp.

     

    Doubt we can do it, but I would like to see an upgrade at WR in a trade and a better LB for depth somehow as the result of some salary relief with a post June 1 cut or something like that.

     

     

     

  7. I like this pick. Not sure we need 3 corners, unless as stated, they view Hancock only as a safety.

     

    Good pick. Bills had him visit.

     

    Bottom line is that Hamlin is replaceable and Jackson and White are not on the team in 2026.

     

    Still not sure why we hated the idea of drafting possibly Jaylen Royals, Horton, or any WR.
