As a Buckeye fan I always thought Nick was a better prospect than Joey. He doesn’t have the length but his technique is stellar. He’s a double digit sack guy as a rookie. He’s a high floor, high ceiling prospect which is why he can’t slip. Outside of his political opinions, which may not fit well in an NFL locker room, he’s a very safe prospect.

I like DK but he is one of the most polarizing players in this draft. Some people will love him and others will worry about his short area quickness, injury and production. I’m fine with him at 9 but a lot of people won’t be. Give me talent though

Sorry about that, I somehow missed the thread. I’d encourage you to try it at some point though. It is fantastic.

@GunnerBill curious to hear your thoughts on Dawson Knox? He feels like a late riser and a guy that could end up on the Bills in the 3rd.

My favorite side in the world may be the Ruth’s Chris sweet potato casserole and it is perfect for what you guys are doing. It is TERRIBLE for you but absolutely incredible. https://steamykitchen.com/38468-ruths-chris-sweet-potato-casserole-recipe.html

I answered your question. That’s not a possibility. In the real world the conversation starts with the teams agreeing to the compensation (like the Bills with Brown). The trade is contingent upon the contract being agreed to (like the Bills with Brown). There is not a situation where a trade would happen without an extension.

I’m not trying to be rude but what does that mean? In the real world, every trade would have an extension negotiated that both sides agreed too (that’s why Antonio Brown isn’t on the Bills). There is not a scenario where your concern could arise.

9 and 40?!? I already said I wouldn’t give up 9. I MAY not give up 40. I’d swap 1sts 9 for Clark and 21. I’d consider 40. I would do a 3rd & 1 of our 2 4ths.

There is certainly talent on the DL in this draft. However, a guy that had 13 sacks at age 25 is what we hope these guys become. Clark IS already that guy. He has 32 sacks over the last 3 years. He’s a high end, proven, pass rusher. The cost will determine whether or not he ends up elsewhere. I’m not giving a 1st as they want. I’d swap 1sts in a second. I’d consider a 2nd and would give them a 3rd & 4th yesterday. It depends on the cost but he can play and it will be tough to get that production out of a draft pick.

Antonio Brown is a cancer. He may be the biggest cancer in the league. The Bills went ALL IN on him but couldn’t make the numbers work. This regime drafted Zay Jones who clearly has some issues. There have been plenty of rumors about their interest in Frank Clark. They aren’t above winning. Also, you’ve made your feelings on Frank Clark known in the Frank Clark thread. You aren’t talking from a position of what could happen but rather what you hope happens (or doesn’t happen in this case). Clark is an option whether you like it or not. They aren’t going to give 9 but a swap of 1’s or a 2 could happen. Prepare yourself...

I’m not giving ANY opinion if I want him or not. I’m saying that the Bills ARE NOT ruling out a player of Clark’s caliber because he isn’t a “process” guy. If they think the value is right they will absolutely pull the trigger. Their interest in Clark hasn’t been a secret. For the last couple of years Bills fans assumed guys with checkered pasts weren’t an option. The reality is, the Bills operate like EVERY other team in the league. If the risk is minimal they will always chase talent. They will do what KC, NE, New Orleans, etc.. do

I’m not a huge pot guy. I drink alcohol way more often than I smoke pot. With that being said, I’m more than comfortable admitting that alcohol and tobacco (I used to smoke too) are WAY worse for you. Pot being on schedule 1 is a joke but it’s a joke that’s coming to an end soon.

So good!!

This whole “process guy” thing is the most overrated BS that we discuss. The Bills have expressed interest in a lot of guys that aren’t good character guys. Jordan Phillips was essentially released for insubordination and he’s a fan favorite. Talent >>>>>>>>>>>>>> Process

I read this article on Pop yesterday and absolutely loved it. Food and wine can link people from any background. It brings people closer. Just so interesting to see how the Spurs have managed to keep that family mentality in good times and in bad.

Yeah, he is the ultimate prospect. There aren’t holes in Devin White’s game.

Saints Steelers (or whomever)

I guess that I’m on the other end. I’ve seen a ton of him and the game that he played against Auburn in 2017 was arguably the best game that I’ve ever seen a defensive player play live. I have him well above Roquan and Edmunds in my projections. IMO, he will be the best ILB in the game in 3 years. His game has no holes on or off the field.

I think that a lot of us missed on his legs. I thought that he was mobile. It turns out he is an elite runner from the position and you are spot on as to the benefit. 3rd and 6 doesn’t need to be a throw into a keyhole. He can get out of the pocket, make a move and move the chains. Your analysis this time of year is invaluable around here and consistently good. Thank you for the effort and opinions. It makes us all more informed come 5 days from now!!

The only thing that I’ll say to that is that if those were your LBs you’d play less nickel. White is an absolute monster he’s going to be a great pro.

Yeah, I used to like his training camp updates. I almost always hate his drafts. I feel like he’s the last guy to the party on people. Things move quickly in the offseason and he’s always like a month behind. Matt Miller and DJ are always good. We have a lot of people here that are strong as well (especially when it comes to the Bills). I’d much, much, much rather hear from Bandit, Gunner, Hokie, etc... regarding the Bills than MJD.

Yeah, studying for his insurance license is going to work out well for him

I think that Gunner likes Deshaun Watson too

This is absolutely the best avenue for those of you looking. Typically roughly half (if not more) of the games are sold out prior to going on sale to the general public. You either need to buy through the ST pre-sale or a 3rd party if you want the opener or any other game with high demand. That pre-sale starts on April 29th.

Good stuff @Alphadawg7 outside of the Love pick I really like this. If you make that Devin Singletary it would be good.
