Agreed- but I wouldn’t mind trading a 4th to move up for Grant if he gets into the mid 20’s. Definitely wouldn’t want to trade a 2nd to move up. Ideally I’d love to pick 4-5 times in the first 3 but I really see Grant as the ideal pick for us and would pay 1-2 day 3 picks to make it happen. But you aren’t going to be able to get the top tier guys. They are top 10 picks and there are really only 3-5 of them (imo). Are we going to land Hunter, Carter, Graham or Jeanty? No. So you’re going to get a 2nd 3rd tier guy whether you pick in the teens or at 30. That’s the contending argument.

I realize all of this. He’s a QB with all the tools and well worth a 5th rd pick. I would’ve traded a 4th for him if I were several teams. Including Buffalo (not that Ne would trade him to us imo) we’ve traded away less and received more

We got lucky. The pats got fleeced AND Milton goes to the nfc win win

I love me some Amos- but Hairston physical tools and ability to cover deep is intriguing. Amos is probably the better fit, but he doesn’t really cover deep as well as others. That’s my only scare. If Hairston were 195+ he would be my pick. But he’s not. Amos for me but I wouldn’t hate Nolan or Hairston. Green is intriguing too

I don’t think there’s any question that he’s a good enough of a WR and CB to play both sides. His skill is what makes him so special. I just don’t believe his body is so special that he would be able to do it for very long. Might not even make it a couple games.

I don’t think there’s any question that he COULD play both full time. I also don’t think there’s any question that he would be riddled with injury and his career could take a turn for the worse if he does. Odds are that his body would break down.

Yeah I’m a big fan as well. Hope he ends up in the nfc

Yes- and the dolphins drafted a TE over him. I’m a huge fan of Warren, but 🤦🏻‍♂️ Campbell should be a lock to Miami if he’s there

I think Denver is a possibility- taking another UNC RB 35 overall 4 years ago may alter their thoughts- but Hampton would be awesome in Denver imo.

Impressive for sure. Overall, I just think he loses value for the team that drafts him if he plays WR full time. He can play corner full time while also playing 12-20 snaps on O. If he plays WR full time, does he play any corner? Or do they play at corner on obvious passing 3rd down and 4th downs?

Ravens Lions bears eagles

Great poast

The bold is my stance in this conversation. So it shouldn’t be odd. If that’s the reason we didn’t win SBs those years, it only makes sense that those players were locks to make plays.

As I said- elite players would increase our chances- but they certainly aren’t locks to make clutch plays and imo, aren’t the reason we haven’t advanced further. Non elite players are certainly capable of making big plays and have throughout history. Yes- Elite players would help

Elite players will improve our chances of winning a Super Bowl. I don’t think the lack of elite players is the reason we lost to KC last season. Or the year before. Or in 2021.

Man, there’s some abomination takes here. We had a great offense and a meh defense. Make a big play on D or a catch on O and we may have been champs. Make plays. Call good plays on O and D. Get some luck with injuries. Did we lose the game because we lacked 1 or 2 elite players? Not imo. We lost because we didn’t make the clutch plays and had some bad luck (Benford, Rapp and every judgement call going against us).

You think he’s a better WR than corner huh? I hadn’t heard anyone say that yet. Not disagreeing, as I’ve only watched a couple highlight tapes of him because he’s not really worth scouting as a potential Bills pick. seems like the consensus says he’s a better corner.

This is a terrible post.

💯

That’s the ideal draft. Trey Amos rd 2. 😂 I haven’t had much time to watch tape this year but I got a few hours in today. If Amos were our pick at 30, I’d be very happy. Coming from a guy that really wants an impact DL more than anything. I really like Amos’ game. I think he should be a 1st rd lock

Haven’t done one in 2-3 years now.

Good

Lol- thanks for posting. Can’t ever take anything Chad says with any sort of confidence after that mock 😂

Yeah he’d be awesome as long as he can cover and tackle at the nfl level. I like the traits 💯 I really think he could be the pick at 30.

Yeah me too. I love porter. Age and experience are a little scary but I’d roll the dice on his traits with hopes mcd can coach him up. It’s a similar scenario with Elam. That didn’t work out and it may have cost us a Super Bowl. So I wouldn’t be surprised if they were be looking to add a more nuanced corner that has a better chance to step in and be good year 1. That’s assuming we don’t add a capable starter between now and then. But I expect Dane and Ingram to be the rookies primary competition I do like porter though. Would love him in rd 2
