This all got blown out of proportion. Zero sleep lost.
I thought it was pretty telegraphed. I do believe that’s why KC jumped ahead and why Beane had to jump up a couple spots. Teams were on to us. I’m not sweating anything. I’ve said over and over, in Beane I trust. That said, not saying he panicked… but his back was against the wall a bit, and he had to scramble to get out guy. It’s not surprising in the least that this is how it played out. I’m fine with the pick. I’m pumped we should have a starter. I knew we absolutely needed a CB early on.
There are people blasting the pick and blasting Beane. I have zero issues with the pick. And while I wish we didn’t have to give up a 4th, he did what he felt he had to do. The 4th kinda sucks… but for everything else, it is what it is. Now we see what the kid can do on the field!
I’ve learned my lesson when it comes to draft day and Beane… yes, I thought we got the wrong Josh in ‘18. Now I have a man-crush on #17 and love eating that crow.
Cheers man - go Bills!
