The usual suspects will try to demand otherwise but as great as Diggs is at shaking coverage...........he becomes mortal after he catches the ball. The Bills do not have that other kind of guy. Obviously, with the emphasis so many fans have on waterbugs in this draft, most at least realize that they could use a game breaker opposite Diggs.

@Kirby Jackson was a big Pooka Williams fan. Hope KJ and @thebandit27 are doing OK.......their input here is especially missed this time of year.

The stars in the league come predominantly from the first 3 rounds.........check any pro bowl roster. Disagree about Imatorbhebhe even being an explosive WR despite his jumping ability.........you don't really see that in his actual game........he reminds me more of Jonnu Smith as a prospect than any successful current WR.

Yeah I think you want a WR corps like a basketball team........a variety of talents..........they don't have that now. I am still holding out hope that Chris Mortensen is right and Russell Wilson still might be dealt to Chicago or Carolina before the draft.......and that DK Metcalf then becomes available in trade.

Nearly 500 undrafted players are on NFL rosters every season.

I like Fehoko but see his ceiling as more of a potential Chase Claypool type. He has weird hands like Claypool. It's like the two hands arrive at the right time but one hand always seems to arrive in the wrong place and leads to a lot of double catches etc..

I like the 3 namers a lot in those round ranges. Austin Watkins is smooooooth..........it's guys like him that make me not want to see the Bills lose the draft at WR by over drafting a guy early.

He could go by round 5.......only takes one team.........but the only thing freaky about his athletic profile at his pro day was his vertical leap. I mean there are much bigger WR's like Fehoko and Harris with similar college production running sub 4.4's at their pro days......it is probably the deepest WR class ever.

I actually like Khafre Brown more than his big bro Dyami. Just a bit faster version who will probably be Howell's WR1 next year and a RS soph so he could be in next years draft. Which is kinda' my thing about taking Dyami in round 1..........there are going to be a lot of "good" mid-sized WR's.........the pipeline on those doesn't appear to be drying up. I like Dyami but don't really see the Diggs comp..............Diggs was a monster recruit who was dominant the minute he set foot on campus.......he just went to a bad team.

Even Sean McDermott says WR is the Bills "fastball"............I don't expect them to let the position atrophy.

I wouldn't be shocked if he went in round 7 or undrafted..........this draft is just so deep at WR..........there are some big, athletic freaks like him and Simi Fehoko and Jacob Harris etc.. that are projected to go late that would have been pushed WAY up boards in some of those weak WR drafts prior to 2018. I expect the Bills to take one of these guys late and try to turn them into a special teams stud while they develop them. You know JI is going to get a shot as a kick blocker with those crazy hops and if he can be a gunner he might get a long chance to develop as a WR.

Gainwell catches the ball with ease all over the field..........doesn't matter if it's a short throw or a deep ball.........that's a rare trait for a RB and a Bills fan will see a little Thurman Thomas in that. He also had a tremendous pro day which supports what you described. I don't value RB's a lot but if they hadn't already used two #3's on RB's I'd like Gainwell quite a bit in round 3.

Yeah I am not sold on Toney as becoming a WR1 so I wouldn't go round 1 on him. I think he plays 4.5 speed on the field and he's so raw as a WR that it squares up as a likely disappointing pick at 30. Not Dyami Brown either.........though in the 2015-2017 drafts yes he'd be a top 30 player because of the positional value and lack of quality at the position. I think his ceiling is below that of an Emmanuel Sanders........and with such an influx of young talent into the league veteran talents like Sanders are going to be available for reasonable rates in UFA for the next several years and I want my 1st round pick to be a potential $20M guy. Marshall I like at #30 because he could develop into a WR1 guy.........coming into the season he was the guy I was hoping the Bills could end up with......and he was terrific when he played.......but I don't love it as much now........I don't think I would pass on Eichenberg or Rousseau for him in a draft with so much talent at WR.

Again: Passes over 25 yards in 2020: Aaron Rodgers 47% Russell Wilson 41% Josh Allen 33% Leaving just those 5-6 very big passing plays on the table is a lot.........in the same way as the difference between 5 sacks or TD's versus 10-11 is a lot........it's a league full of small stats that are very impactful. And for all the talk about completion %..........that doesn't even tell the whole story. Go back and watch the Cover 1 youtube review of the game at NYJ as a good example............Allen had a busted coverage throw to a wide open Kroft that was caught but it came in so hot that Kroft lost his balance after the catch.........he also tucked the ball on some wide open deep shots in that game that a QB like Aaron Rodgers (whose level Allen aspires to) throws every time. Missed big plays and more wear and tear.

The much more important aspect wrt drafting him in round 1 is that he's not a LT prospect, IMO. The part about him playing past the whistle is just part of his comp to Ford..........who has been a disappointment to say the least.

Yeah I actually think that late first thru the second round is a place where a lot of mistakes could be made.........there are some guys in this draft that should absolutely go in the first..........but then there is a drop-off where I don't see much difference in risk/reward/value between the next group and guys that could end up going on day 3. I'm not a fan of the gadget guys early..........I know a lot of fans are.........but just because we want a Tyreek Hill doesn't mean the Bills can just go get theirs. If you believe the way mock drafts are being set up round 2 is full of them. The hype is out of control. Dri Archer ran a 4.26 at the combine and had a much more productive college career than Rondale Moore.......with the Tyreek-mania nowadays..........he would probably be rationalized as a Bills target at 30 if he was in this draft. Will be interesting to see if the NFL teams have a more realistic outlook on these undersized guys than the fans do.

As @GunnerBill said........it's just a very deep draft.

The weight doesn't mean anything without leverage. He plays tall.......like a tackle.......and low man wins inside. He's not been a good tackle OR guard.

Yeah last season they were missing that one guy on both sides of the ball. This year might be different but their approach to team building has been a little different than KC's...........the Chiefs have aimed high athletically in the draft and went out of their way to keep the controversial Tyreek Hill and paid big for the likes of Clark and Mathieu and Sammy Watkins.........and enough of those decisions have panned out that it causes big matchup problems for a team like the Bills.

This isn't MLB.......low number stats/sample sizes matter in a very short 16-17 game season matter. Like TD passes thrown per game. Only 10 QB's even reached an average of 2 per start last year in a historic season for offense. A lot of big stats in the NFL are things that a great player only achieves just once or twice per game. Hitting on just 5-6 more deep balls per season might be the only difference between Allen being an NFL MVP and just being a top 5 QB...........connecting on just 1 more can be the difference between winning a game and losing it. I'm certain Allen is working on it this offseason......he was the worst at in 2019.........per the NFL's own stat service he was 14th last season..........this year I anticipate that he will be one of the best at it and then nobody will be talking about small sample sizes or diminishing the value of these big plays.

Nobody has guessed because you went into a filibuster.........you've run out of real estate. What's even more distasteful is that you are trying to look witty doing it..........remember.........brevity is the soul of wit.

WR Jacob Harris had an attention grabbing performance at UCF pro day: 6'5" 219 81 1/4" span 40.5" vert 15 reps 11'1" broad 4.39 40 4.28 shuttle 6.51 3 cone ...........and still probably goes undrafted. Quite a promising WR class this year.

Like I said, don't expect a quote from him, he was pretty clear about that.

Here's the best way Ford could help make a big difference in 2021: Buffalo's #1, #2, #5 and Cody Ford in exchange for DK Metcalf and a 7th.

That's just jibberish. As I noted above........the accuracy difference between Aaron Rodgers and Josh Allen on throws over 25 yards in 2020 was 14%(47% versus 33%)..............while the difference on all throws total was just 1% (70% v 69%). One guy is great at the deep ball........the other is middle of the pack. There isn't a physical reason why there should be such a discrepancy between the two QB's on deep throws. It's not random and not just a case of "everyone is inconsistent"..............that's just you trying to shout down a discussion with an unsupported observation. As I've said about your takes........
