I have 6 guys remaining graded higher than Loveland (one isn't on the poll though).

I think it is probably because the known about sexual assault allegations are not all there is on him. And based on the rumour mill that is the way it is trending.

I voted Amos (I just think he is perfect for our scheme) but if Scourton was on the list..... I'd have gone for him. My view on Green is if he is there at #30, you should stay away. Because he only makes it that far is the off field stuff is bad (and I have spoken to one beat reporter this week, not Bills different market who said what we know at this point is tip of the iceberg).

Yea I just don't think he is their physical prototype.

Sadly with Poyer and Diggs gone and Milano maybe on his final run the Bills are short of players who makde me excited in that way.

I do think a KC trade up for a left tackle is in play, but the way the draft now looks they will probably be in a spot to get Conerly anyway.... and signing Moore means it is a need (their biggest need) but not a desperate situation as it seemed. Yea Virg did say 3 rounder in his preamble but at first he only listed the first round picks. Did you ignore @Virgil's preamble Alpha? He gonna be MAD! 😄

I'd argue it is even MORE important with premium picks. Best player available at a premium position IMO, with the exception of Quarterback if you have a Quarterback who is proven and under 35/36.

Nope. This is the 3 rounder!

That's a good pick. I was between two when I was gonna pick for you. He was my 2nd choice.

Just in time.... I had the pick written up 😃. I will step aside sir, let you return to your rightful place 🫡

Is @TOboy's time up? If so I am happy to make the pick.

Oliver was. But agree... Elam, Kincaid and Coleman were picks for need not BPA.

If the developers see an opportunity that rarely stops them.

You are not wrong on this class... but if the Bills draft one of those guys what do they do with them if Cook plays? They are not keeping 4 plus Gilliam.

They played well vs the Broncos. It's easy to say "yea but Bo Nix, rookie, etc" but that offense had been on a tear down the stretch even against some playoff teams. The Bills held them to basically one play. Not even one drive. They scored with an opening drive bomb and then disappeared from the game. Now in the games we have lost.... yea they have been bad. I think that is kinda common though. When KC lose in the post season their D has been bad too. Their D hasn't been great against the Bills either. They have just tended to make one play in the crunch that ours hasn't.

Plenty. There is zero sign at the moment of the market for NFL football slowing.

Which kid from Texas? Barron? He doesn't have the length they require in corners. I love him. He is 5th on my big board. But I very much doubt the Bills consider him a fit.

I could do with us either slowing down or speeding up! At this rate my second round picks are gonna hit while I'm on a flight tomorrow evening....

It was what I disliked about him before everything that happened. Out kicking coverage is a major issue for him. He has zero hang time.

And I think Nolen played 10-15lbs heavier than 296. I think that is his "workout weight" rather than what he played at. If I had to guess I'd say he was around 305lbs playing weight.

We hired Ryan Neilsen as a senior defensive assistant. Dline is supposedly his bag. We will see. But I think they have to talent evaluate better there. Beane took AJE and from where he started I think the coaches have developed him well.... he also took Boogie Basham in round 2 who by the end of his 4th season was on the practice squad of one of the worst teams in football. That is an evaluation problem. Whether the coaching has always maximised Groot and Ed is a fair question.

Walter Nolen. I am told the Steelers are in LOVE with him.

I don't see him as at all similar to Burks. I don't get that comparison at all. Burks was a big slot who was a beast with ball in hand. While Tet can definitely move around the formation he is much more of a true outside guy with the body control and footwork to make the most of small spaces on the boundary. Think deeper separation is a fair question. But if I had to come up with a pro comp it's Dez Bryant.

I don't think he will be. But I wouldn't be shocked. There are NFL teams who see him as a guard only. I actually don't love the fit for him with Miami. His lateral movement worries me as a tackle in a stretch zone style scheme.

They definitely are. But I was talking top 10. Later first it is Denver and Washington IMO that are the obvious landing spots.
