Wierd haven't seen this flagged. Wonder what and how serious. Talented guy.

What's up with J Taylor? Medical?

Karma is effin with Rosen two years in a row.

Wtf is this guy wearing

Love it.

Ugh

Cant remember.

All those guys in Zona gonna get fired. Again.

Vikings. Twice I think.

Cards prolly won't get the pick in on time.

And not doing right by either player.

I've been thinking this for a long time. I thought he was a natch to them last year but for that franchise RB being there and a need.

There are players I would pick ahead of him but they prolly won't be there. J. Williams will be a very good pro at tackle or inside for many years. What's not to like if he's the pick? Nothing that I can see.

I'm head over heels over DKs measurables but not enuf production and more importantly his route running and hands are, I won't say suspect because there isn't much to back that up either, but unproven. I think that couple of years ago Corey Davis was a better prospect and worth a top ten selection despite the conference. This year I'd rather have Harry later even if I had to trade up. Having said that with his other worldly athleticism, bloodlines, and stratospheric ceiling he probably presents the profile Beane seems to like so I wouldn't be surprised.

Yep. All (draft) day.

Both Ford and Clark can rush the passer on the outside, but Clark is a tougher, way more physical player who is much, much better against the run. The price was very steep agreed but the Chiefs obviously think they've landed a 25 year old elite pass rusher who is not at all situational and who adds a lot of value on every down. If they are right he's worth it.

Because Clark is a much better player.

If a QB lacks personality he might still be a great player. Having a great personality definitely helps though, in the lockerroom and in the huddle, assuming you otherwise have the tools. That's why they say Napoleon (when he was on his game) was worth 20,000 men in the field. His guys loved him. Having the right personality for the job is a positive and an important intangible. Of course you also need to have the tools. I'm very encouraged by Allen's rookie year, especially after his return from injury. The biggest question surrounding any college player is whether and how well he will be able to transition to the pro game. Lots of players look good in college and even project well to the next level but don't transition well. It's a big jump. It's when a guy continues to impress and especially even looks like he can improve that you start to think you've maybe struck gold. I checked out as much of Allen's WYO tape as I could last year before the draft. There were issues with his game (and there still is) but he was clearly cut in the mould of a dominant player. Last year he consistently flashed the same dominant tendencies on an NFL field and in fact to my untrained eye he was a better and more effective player in the NFL after his return from injury than he was in the Mountain West. That's pretty ridiculous IMO. So I have some confidence that things bode well for him and the Bills. I think he's going to be good. Maybe great.

Cards are taking Murray # 1. Given the hype nothing else would make any sense. Trading out of the first spot (if that was their plan) would give them the same leverage/value without the hype & undermining Rosen. IMO they will regret their decision.

There is no doubt that Hock would be a great addition and really an ideal way to round out all of the excellent work Beane has already done to try and help out JA in the passing game at the line, on the outside and in the slot. So I think he'd be a good pick and I'd have no problem getting behind it. But if an outstanding 3T or edge guy is there (or even close enuf to justify a cost efficient trade up) at the top of the draft that is the direction I'd go in. You need to pressure the passer and we don't do that nearly well enough. That would do more for our D than Hock would do for our O which is just another way of saying it would do more for the team as a whole. They signed a good blocking TE who can also probably help out in the passing game and they have a guy already on the roster (for now) who should be able to contribute in that regard. And Hock is not the only TE in the draft. JMO but I suspect that Hock goes toward the middle of the first at best and maybe even a bit later. I'm not taking him at 9. Having said that I respect Jeremiah's opinion. He called Spiller if memory serves.

Spain is a load lol. And as long as your just asking him to block the man in front of him (and get to the second level) he should be fine in the run game. Good addition.

I agree with those who say that Duke has been gifted an excellent opportunity. Like other position groups on offence there will be lots of competition and room to make the roster, especially if the Bills don't prioritize WR in the draft (if eg. they go DT and edge the first two rounds). Williams is a big physical receiver who tracks the ball well and has excellent hands. The team can use a player with this skillset if he can transition. If Daboll opts for some 11 personnel sets I can see him as a useful complement in his O, and a big help to Allen especially mid-range over the middle of the field. He wasn't asked to block in Edmonton, but if he can do that I can see him as possibly serving occasionally as a borderline hybrid TE. I think he is a better receiver than Charles Clay at this point in Clay's career. Idk whether or how well he will make out against a big step up in the level of play. I doubt that he will be a star but he may prove a useful addition and well worth a roster spot. At the very least it' will be interesting to see how his story plays out.

Maybe coming from folks with an agenda idk but Casserly reported scuttlebutt that he was the worst interviewee that teams had ever seen. Seems like a lot of red flags there. I guess I'm a little surprised that he'll be the first player off the board.

JMO but there are 2 sure fire immediate impact players at the top of the draft: Bosa and Williams. If you are within striking distance of either you jump. Allen is a great prospect but won't find his stride at the next level right away, probably not for a couple of years. I think Bosa is the second player off the board and I'd rather have the DT anyway based on need/fit. Williams projects as all pro 3 tech and would turbo charge this D into top 5.

If Williams somehow makes it past the 49rs, Jets and Raiders (and it's just possible) imo Beane will do everything in his power to move into the 5 spot. If you knew nothing about this year's draft and tried to conjure up an image of the ideal first round pick for the Bills you could easily conjure up a DT with Q. Williams's exact measurables and skillset. As much as I like him I see Oliver as a consolation prize. I think Beane would burn draft capital for Williams before staying put for Oliver at 9.
