    I've got to wonder about the ACC tendency and whether or not it's predictive...

     

    Is it just a statistical fluke?  (The sample size isn't huge).

     

    Do they favor the ACC for some reason?  Do they believe it produces more NFL caliber athletes?

     

    Does our scout for the ACC have more pull at OBD?  Is he more persuasive?  

     

     

     

     

    It may be a bit of a moneyball thing.........SEC players aare assumed to be the best and play the toughest competition so teams are biased to the SEC when drafting.  Maybe Beane see some value in under rated ACC players as a result.  As others have said, the small sample size makes it more difficult to trend.

  2. With the 86th selection the Dallas Cowboys pick Leo Chenal, LB, Wisconsin.

     

    The needs were LB, DT or double dip on the OL.  Chenal was the BPA @ 35 on the board.  He is a good blitzer and attacks the OL violently.  His PFF grade for run defense was 94.1.  He may be a 2 down LB but a good 2 down LB.

     

    The Bills and @Virgil are on the clock.

    You mean Christian Watson, I think. I was thinking second round for both, but from comments in the Watson thread, looks like he may go in the first.

    The difference between message board GMs and real GMs will be more focus on production and high percentage of drops.

    At this pace, I don't know if we will get 3 drafts in.  People are really stretching the 4 hours

     

    You may need to be selective and avoid posters who take excessive time.

     

    I also would avoid 3 rounds - the knowledge of players 75 and above drops off.

     

    Good job as usual - thanks for the leadership.

  5. The Dallas Cowboys with the 24th  pick in round 2 select Lewis Cine, S Georgia.

     

    We were targeting Leal but got poached.  He was also the highest player on the board.

     

    Cine is a sure tackler and will clean-up any misses from the LBs.

     

    The  Bills are on the clock @Virgil

  6. With the 24th selection, the Dallas Cowboys select Kenyon Green, IOL, Texas A&M.

     

    The Cowboys need talent at the DT and IOL positions.  In going IOL, the Cowboys will help re-establish the OL as a strength after degrading in 2021.  Green has the size, strength and technique to be a long term starter.   He also has position flexibility as he started at every position except C for A&M in 2021.

     

    The Bills @Virgil are on the clock.

    Wow! IR for Feliciano..... I don't like it....

     

    Get we'll soon, big fella!

     

    I think Bates is our swing OT, then Doyle is below him.....

    At guard, Ike will probably get the start and Ford backs up at guard.

    Get a free taco if you know who our backup center is.....

     

    Ugh, lotsa work to do to get this OL up to decent. Gotta Get our starters back first. That's gonna take three weeks minimum now. Then, I think, they need to play together for awhile. I don't even think Feliciano has left guard down yet at all.... It takes time switching sides.....Plus they all have to get used to each other again. Hopefully Brown is still adjusting things in his mind watching, etc.

    Anyhoo, I haven't given up yet that our OL can be decent by the playoffs.....and it could be a blessing in disguise that Spencer Brown is not playing now. While he definitely needs the practice this little "vacation" for him may prevent him from hitting the rookie wall.

     

    Go Bills!

     

     

    Bates, send cash.

    "Just Win, Baby".

     

    Flores and the Dolphins are a wounded bear.  I expect this to be "playoff football" to them, where they pull out all the stops to win.

     

    Just like the Bills at Vikings 2018, if we take them for granted, we can get our asses whupped.    I expect Diggs and the other vets are reminding the younger players of that - "nothing is given, everything is earned, get your head in the game and GRIND"

    Miami had real playoff football last year in Buffalo and gave up.  Hopefully same today.
