P51

It’s above the pick, 40,67,100 and a 1st next year.

My only attempt of the season, grades are preliminary and initial, no deep dive into the class this year, just surface scratching, enjoy!! 2024 NFL Mock Draft V1.0 Round 1 1 – Chicago – Caleb Williams (QB – U.S.C.) – Would be the biggest draft shocker in my lifetime, if it is was anyone else. Grade: Top 5 2 – Washington – Jayden Daniels (QB – L.S.U.) – Top dual threat QB in the draft, elite level production against SEC defenses from the pocket and on the run. 2023-2024 tape is the best in the class. Grade: Top 5 *Trade* New England trades the 3rd pick and a 2025 4th round pick to Minnesota for the 11th, 23rd, and the Vikings 2025 1st pick. New England’s roster on offense is offensive, no QB is developing there for some time. Minnesota is the opposite and gives a young QB a chance to develop and make an impact in the near and distant future. 3 – Minnesota (via. N.E.) – Drake Maye (QB – U.N.C.) – Maye could end up being the best QB in the class, with the most natural tools and traits, he did more with less (supporting cast) this past season of any of the top QB’s in this draft. Grade: Top 10 4 – Arizona – Marvin Harrison Jr. (WR – Ohio St.) – Arizona is going to take calls for the next QB teams want, likely J.J. McCarthy, however… They have 6 picks in the top 90 to rebuild the roster and don’t feel the need to trade down, just stick and pick the best non-QB in the draft at a position of need, #1 WR. Grade: Top 5 *Trade* San Diego trades the 5th pick to Las Vegas for the 13th, 44th, 77th and a 2025 3rd. Las Vegas pays a premium to a division rival to leap frog the Giants, while the Chargers look to keep building their roster. 5 – Las Vegas (via. L.A. Chargers) – J. J. McCarthy (QB – Michigan) – While not being personally sold on McCarthy, many in the league apparently are. McCarthy’s demeanor and skill set seems perfect for the Raiders, who leapfrog the Giants to get there QB of the future making the AFC West even more interesting this off-season. Grade: 2nd/3rd Round 6 – N.Y. Giants – Malik Nabors (WR – L.S.U.) – The Giants smoke screen works with teams believing they are on the J.J. train, they are not and land their #1 WR in the draft. Nabors has the same grade as MHJ on my board and the Giants, give D. Jones one last look before cutting the cord, with a top 5 value at 6. Grade: Top 5 7 – Tennessee – Joe Alt (LT – Notre Dame) – The Titans watch the draft unfold with a smile on their face. Grade: Top 10 8 – Atlanta – Laiatu Latu (OLB/DE/Edge – U.C.L.A.) – Atlanta has not a single defensive player who opposing offenses have to plan for in pass pro. Latu is the best pass rusher in the draft, production, traits, he is him. Medically, I don’t know… In this mock, he is cleared by Atlanta’s doctors and provides an instant impact needed to compete in the K. Cousins 2 year window. Negative medical = D. Turner. Grade: Top 10 (RF – Med*) 9 – Chicago – Rome Odunze – (WR – Washington) – The Bears continue to help future and present Caleb Williams succeed. Grade: Top 10 10 – N.Y. Jets – Olu Fashanu (LT – Penn. St.) – The Jets would love to add a weapon for A-A-Ron in Brock Bowers, however, they can’t go into next season or the future without solidifying edge pass protection. Grade: Top 20 11- New England (via. Minnesota) – Brock Bowers (TE – Georgia) – The Patriots start stacking talent with the BPA. Grade: Top 10 *Trade* Denver trades the 12th pick to Washington for the 40th, 67th, 100th and Washington’s 1st round pick in 2025. Washington looks to upgrade their edge rush while Denver looks to add assets in this draft and the next, while recovering from the Russell Wilson disaster. 12 – Washington (via. Denver) – Dallas Turner (Edge/34OLB – Alabama) Washington is going to have to create pressure from their front 4 in Dan Quinn’s system and Turner has the physical tools and potential to terrorize NFC East QB’s for the next decade. Grade: Top 20 13 – Los Angeles Chargers (via. Las Vegas) – J.C. Latham (RT/T – Alabama) Jim Harbaugh’s master plan is slowly coming to fruition, Latham is a mass of humanity and a physical marvel who should pave the way for the Chargers to lead the league in rushing in the near future. Grade: Top 20 14 – New Orleans – Troy Fautanu (LT/G – Washington) The left side of New Orleans O-line needs an overhaul, Fautanu I believe to be the answer at either LT or LG moving forward. Grade: Top 20 15 – Indianapolis – Quinyon Mitchell (CB – Toledo) My #1 CB in the draft slides right into the Colts lap, and they shall rejoice. Mitchell has the traits, tape and underwear olympic numbers to justify a top 10 selection, a steal at pick 15. Grade: Top 10 16 – Seattle – Micheal Penix Jr. (QB – Washington) Obvious connections to Ben Grubbs aside, the personnel in Seattle’s offense and the offense itself are tailor made for Penix, who won’t have to be QB1 day one, but could if needed. Seattle lets Penix marinate and looks to add their future QB without the risk of losing out on him via a trade back from 16 or a trade up from 81. Grade: 2nd Round (RF – Med*) 17 – Jacksonville – Terrion Arnold (CB – Alabama) Competitive and aggressive, with good CoD skills, quick eyes when the ball is in the air and natural fit for the new DC and press scheme they will be employing next season. Grade: 1st Round 18 – Cincinnati – Taliese Fuaga (RT/G – Oregon St.) Continuing to protect Joe Burrow is a must, as Joe goes, so do the Bengal’s, Fuaga may not ever become elite, but is steady as they come and plays with an aggressive demeanor that will fit in well with the Bengals offense. I Grade: 1st Round *Trade* L.A. Rams trade the 19th pick to Buffalo for the 28th, 160th and a 2025 2nd round pick (Buffalo). The Rams are in a weird place of win now mode and needing to rebuild the defensive front four quickly to maximize Stafford’s career window, as they traded away 1st rounders like Mardi Gras beads the last few years. They did win a CHIP… Buffalo looks to add a premier deep threat to stretch the field and really stress defenses down the field, complementing the existing and future roster in the pass game. 19 – Buffalo (via. L.A. Rams) – Brian Thomas (WR – L.S.U.) Thomas is an explosive play waiting to happen at any time, with natural and go-get-it speed, and general athleticism that requires defenses to account for him and the deep half of the field every time Thomas touches the field, utilizing Josh Allen’s arm and the field itself to the fullest. Grade: Top 20 20 – Pittsburgh – Graham Barton (C/G/T – Duke) Barton’s ability to play anywhere on the line and excel in the interior will help the entirety of the Steelers offense, stabilizing the center position for the next decade. Grade: 1st/Top 20 21 – Miami – Jared Verse (43DE/Edge/OLB – F.S.U.) Miami’s pass rush was devastated by injury late last season, injuries that will linger into this season and leave the Miami defense toothless in a conference they hope to compete in. Verse starts and contributes day 1 for the Dolphins. Grade: 1st Round 22 – Philadelphia – Cooper Dejean (S/CB – Iowa) Dejean is a secondary swiss army knife, injecting youth and flexibility into an Eagles secondary that needs it. A top notch athletic profile combined with excellent tape make Cooper a great pick at 22. Grade: Top 20 23 – New England (via. Minnesota) – Tyler Guyton (LT/T – Oklahoma) Connor McDermott is an average back up at best, if he is starting your QB is always going to see ghosts from the blind side, Guyton is a projection, but the athletic traits and natural frame could develop into an elite level pass protector. Grade: 2nd/1st 24 – Dallas – Byron Murphy II (3DT – Texas) Dallas hope’s Mazi Smith turns into the run stuffing NDT he was supposed to be last year, I wouldn’t hold my breath, unfortunately the interior DL is still lacking severely. Murphy gives the group some much needed energy and juice. Grade: 2nd/1st Round 25 – Green Bay – Amarius Mims (RT/G – Georgia) Mims is a swing for the fences type of pick, and the normally risk adverse Packers take a swing. Mims is a Boom or Bust prospect, giving the Packers some positional flexibility with their current personnel. Grade: 2nd Round 26 – Tampa Bay – Xavier Worthy (WR – Texas) Worthy gives Baker Mayfield and the Bucs offense a game changing weapon, forcing defenses to pick their poison in coverage. Grade: 2nd Round 27 – Arizona – Adonai Mitchell (WR – Texas) Arizona lands Mitchell to pair opposite MHJ, why another WR in the first you ask? Without looking anyone up, name me an NFL caliber receiver on their current roster? Exactly, boom, now they have two. Grade: 1st Round (RF – -Med) 28 – L.A. Rams (via. Buffalo) – Chop Robinson (Edge – Penn. St.) The Rams have no pass rush in the defensive front now, and look to infuse some explosiveness and juice into their front. Grade: 1st Round 29 – Detroit – Nate Wiggins (CB – Clemson) Elite level cover ability, traits, athleticism, he is the package. Can he develop the physicality and consistency at the next level? Grade: 2nd Round 30 – Baltimore – Kool-Aid McKinstry (CB – Alabama) Baltimore addresses the current and future need at CB with Kool-Aid. Grade: 2nd *Trade* San Francisco trades the 31st and 124th picks to Washington for the 36th and 78th picks. Washington looks to add a blindside protector for Jayden Daniels to grow and flourish with. While San Francisco looks to trade down and move up and add another top 100 pick to the roster. 31 – Washington (via. San Francisco) – Jordan Morgan (LT/T – Arizona) Washington continues to use their draft capital to work around the board and add day 1 starters, Morgan should start right out of the gate and develop into a dependable starter in short order. Grade: 2nd Round 32 – Kansas City – Kingsley Suamataia (LT/T – B.Y.U.) The Chiefs look to Suamataia’s ceiling as a longterm solutions to their hole at LT, it may not be pretty (not that it was with Donovan “tug not a hold” Smith) initially, but Suamataia has the potential to potentially protect Mahommes blind side for the rest of his career. Grade: 2nd/3rd Round Round 2 33 – Carolina – Ladd McConkey (WR – Georgia) Tough call for Carolina here, the pick should be offense, as should the next. Legette, JPJ and several others are in consideration. Having solidified the interior oline in FA, they look to add the explosive route runner, giving Bryce Young a versatile option in the passing game day 1. Grade: 2nd Round 34 – New England – Xavier Legette (WR – S. Carolina) The Patriots future offensively continues to get brighter for whomever is at the helm this season and into future seasons. Legette gives the Patriots an outside threat to complement Bowers on offense. Grade: 2nd Round. 35 – Arizona – Ennis Rakestraw Jr. (CB – Mizzu) The Cardinals look to add to their secondary at the corner spot, with the fiesty potential day 1 starter. Grade: 2nd Round 36 – San Francisco (via. Washington) – Patrick Paul (LT/T – U. Houston) Paul has the potential to be one of the best left tackles in this class, and a plus starter in time. Grade: 2nd/3rd 37 – L.A. Chargers – Jackson Power-Johnson (C – Oregon) Another piece for the offensive line that is quickly developing the potential to be the best in the league in short order. Grade: 2nd/1st 38 – Tennessee – Darius Robinson (DE/DL – Mizzu) Tennessee takes the versatile front 7 weapon, who can play DE in the 34 defensive front, rush the passer from the inside or outside, even rushing from the nose when needed. Grade: 2nd/1st 39 – Carolina (via. N.Y. Giants) – Zach Frazier (C/G – West Virginia) Austin Corbett maybe the answer in the pivot next season, coming off consecutive MCL and ACL tears in 2023 and 2022 respectively, and with one year left on his contract. Frazier completes the rebuild of the Panthers interior offensive line, giving Bryce Young a pocket to work from for the foreseeable future. Grade: 2nd Round 40 – Denver (via. Washington) – Bo Nix (QB – Oregon) Bo Nix does not go in the 1st round, but lands in the best spot for himself in Denver, who views Nix as a potential QB1, but does not handcuff themselves to him, in taking him in round 2, with more options moving forward than had they stayed and picked at 12. 41 – Green Bay (via. N.Y. Jets) – Edgerrin Cooper (LB – Texas A & M) Cooper gives the Quay Walker a partner at LB capable of wrecking opponents game plans in their new .05 defense. Day one starter, who effects the opposition run game from the light box. Grade: 2nd Round 42 – Houston (via Minnesota) – Jer’Zhan Newton (3DT – Illinois) More fresh, young juice for the defensive line complementing recent investments on the edge, Newton will bring the heat from the interior in a rotational role early in his career with the Texans. A steal at 42. Grade: 2nd/1st 43 – Atlanta – Ricky Pearsall (WR – Florida) Pearsall can play any WR spot a coach would like, and contributes to the Falcons passing game day 1. Grade: 2nd Round 44 – L.A. Chargers (via. Las Vegas) – Malachi Corley (SWR – W. Kentucky) The Chargers continue their 2024 NFL draft theme: “We are going to beat you up, and the beating will continue until you give up.” Corley is capable of more than he showed in college, while extending the hand-off range of Justin Jerbert. Grade: 2nd Round 45 – New Orleans (via. Denver) – Keon Coleman (WR – Florida St.) Coleman’s skill set complements Olave’s in the Saints offense and is a solid value in round 2. Grade: 2nd Round 46 – Indianapolis – Marshawn Kneeland (DE/Edge/OLB – W. Michigan) The Colts need waves of edge rushers moving forward, and Kneeland has the tools to develop into an long term asset for the Colts. Grade: 2nd Round 47 – N.Y. Giants (via. Seattle) – T.J. Tampa (CB – Iowa St.) In adding to the secondary, the Giants land Tampa who’s name and coverage ability will resonate with 70’s Steelers and 2000’s Buc’s fans, and give the Giants a quality #2 corner opposite Deonte Banks. Grade: 2nd Round 48 – Jacksonville – Troy Franklin (WR – Oregon) Jacksonville needs a #1, some would argue an #1 and a #2 WR, Franklin is a good value pick at 48, who should be able to fill the role of #2 now, and potentially #1 down the road. Grade: 2nd Round 49 – Cincinnati – Ja’Lynn Polk (WR – Washington) The Bengal’s start planning for life after Tee Higgins, whether it be this year or next, Polk will be ready. Grade: 2nd Round. 50 – Philadelphia (via. New Orleans) – Christian Hayes (G – U. Conn.) Hayes gives Philly a potential short term, and better long term solution at RG than Tyler Steen, competition and depth at worst. Grade: 2nd Round 51 – Pittsburgh – Roger Rosengarten (RT – Washington St.) Rebuilding the offensive line continues for the Steelers in this mock, with Broderick Jones moving to LT, Rosengarten slides into RT, helping with the two birds one pick ideology. Grade: 2nd/3rd 52 – Los Angeles Rams – Brandon Fiske (DT/3DT – Florida St.) Fiske was one of my favorite prospects after watching several FSU games during the past season, Kevin Williams 2.0. The Rams continue to add to their defensive front with the high motor Fiske. Grade: 2nd Round 53 – Philadelphia – Payton Wilson (LB – N.C. State) Medicals will likely cause Wilson to fall in the draft, his tape, testing numbers and athletic profile are 1st round caliber. Watching Wilson reminds me a lot or watching Brian Urlacher in my early amateur scouting days. Yes, blurry VHS tapes, Pro Football Draft Preview, fun times. Don’t mind me. Grade: 2nd/1st Round (RF – Med) 54 – Cleveland – Junior Colson (LB – Michigan) Cleveland has a solid roster and while DT was in play here, I was really hoping Payton Wilson would fall to this pick. Colson is a solid consolation prize and heck of a football player in his own right, potential year one starter and future mainstay for the Browns roster. Grade: 2nd Round 55 – Miami – Cooper Beebe (G – Kansas State) Miami takes the best available offensive lineman, they need help everywhere on the OL. Injuries and free agency have not been kind to the Fins this past 12 months. Grade: 2nd Round 56 – Dallas – Trey Benson (RB – F.S.U.) Benson gives the Cowboys offense a bell cow back, who is capable on 3rd down with room to grow. Grade: 2nd Round 57 – Tampa Bay – Adisa Isaac (OLB/Edge – Penn St.) Adisa Isaac gives the Bucs D an non-stop motor who maybe relegated to DPR status early in his career. Grade: 3rd Round 58 – Green Bay – Max Melton (CB – Rutgers) Max is one of the more versatile CB’s in the draft and contributes early and often, effective immediately. Grade: 2nd Round 59 – Houston – Kamari Lassiter (CB – Georgia) Lassiter will not have to start early, but provides depth and future starting potential for the Texans. Grade: 3rd Round 60 – Buffalo – Tyler Nubin (S – Minnesota) “Plays with predatory mentality from split safety and robber alignment.” Reminds me of Jordan Poyer, Nubin does not have the athletic Olympic underwear profile, but the guy competes all the time. Grade: 2nd/3rd Round 61 – Detroit – Jalen McMillan (WR – Washington) McMillan is one of sleepers for the 2024 draft, a naturally talented receiver with more to offer as a pro. Grade: 3rd Round 62 – Baltimore – Mike Sainristil (NCB – Michigan) Sainristil has future all pro written all over him, instincts and IQ are elite. The Ravens… Grade: 2nd Round 63 – San Francisco – Javon Bullard (S – Georgia) Bullard should be able to come in and give the 9ers a new starting SS immediately. Grade: 2nd/3rd 64 – Kansas City – Devontez Walker (WR – U.N.C.) Kansas City continues their off-season offensive assault on the deep half of the field, adding another deep threat to pair with FA Marquise Brown. Walker will help Mahommes stretch the field. Grade: 3rd Round

https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/news/2024-nfl-combine-results-wr-measurements-40-yard-dash-winners-losers-as-xavier-worthy-breaks-combine-record/ 5'11'' 165 Do you think he can fill the void of being a #2 for the Bills? Does not seem to be a good outlook and track record for guys being drafted that light from what I have read and the information I have looked at.

I hope your 2nd round prediction comes to fruition as well. That would be a great 2nd round pick as well. Nice job brother.

I watched the replay of the false start on the punt 4 times, no one here saw a Bills player move on any of the rewinds.

He dedicated himself to controling his weight in High School, it hasnt been an issue in college from what I know, showed up at the combine at 312 if I remember. Knew it was an issue as a Junior in High School and wanted to go to Florida and play, he made it happen, wanted to show the nfl it wasnt an issue showed up to the combine at 312. He will certainly need to continue to manage his weight moving forward to play, but to say he cant control his weight and he's not dedicated in this regard is incorrect imo. I actually think he's shown he is dedicated to do so. As for the knee injury, I have no idea what it is, but that is what I would think has caused him to drop. Usually information on this type of injury comes out eventually.

The look on Golics face was the same as mine before I erupted into laughter along with everyone I was watching the draft with, priceless... Gettleman may have sweated out a great troll job by the Skins and others, the one guy who doesnt get the jokes on him.

Miami) 100 – Sean Bunting (CB – Central Michigan) This is my What Would P51 Do? Mock draft, I am the GM for all 32 teams, just for fun!! Enjoy and flame away if it suits you.... 2019 NFL Mock WWP51DO? V2.0 1 – Arizona - Kyler Murray (QB – Oklahoma) Josh Rosen in my opinion is a better prospect than every QB in the 2019 class except Kyler Murray, I see them as having relatively equal draft grades with Murray’s mobility separating him, yet they clearly fit different systems, being different style QB’s . Murray gives coach Kingsbury his choice of QB to run his system, of which Rosen is not an ideal fit and as GM of the Cardinals it is my job to give our new coach the best prospects to fit his style. *Josh Rosen is traded later in this mock. Grade: Top 20 2 – San Francisco - Nick Bosa (43DE – O.S.U.) Solomon Thomas has some trade value despite underperforming up to this point in his career, and is quickly replaced with the higher rated Bosa at LDE, giving the 49ers a potentially devastating pass rush off the edge and D. Buckner up the middle. They’ll be able to add a more natural nose to help out the run D in FA or later in the draft. Bosa is too good to pass on in this spot, playing at a premium position with a grade for me comparable to Q. Williams. Grade: Top 5 * Trade * N.Y. Jets Trade the 3rd and 105th picks to the N.Y. Giants for the 6th and 37th picks in the 2019 draft. 3 – N.Y. Giants (via. N.Y. Jets) – Josh Allen (Edge/SLB/DPR/43DE – Kentucky) As a self-proclaimed upgrade as a General Manager to the real life version for the Giants, I know I have to upgrade the pass rush, find a QB of the future and hopefully an offensive lineman. Landing a truly elite edge rusher at 6 is not likely, however making a deal with the Jets to land one is at pick 3. Allen fits the new defensive scheme and is an elite talent the Giants defensive front is missing. I don’t mind paying a premium (18%) to land a premium player. Grade: Top 5 4 – Raiders – Quinnen Williams (3DT/DT – Alabama) I love the Raiders DT depth chart, but when the #1 player on my board drops to 4 with no comparable value at DE or QB, I am taking Williams and not looking back, ill figure out the rest later and destroy the interior of offensive lines for years to come in waves. Grade: Top 5 5 – Tampa Bay – Ed Oliver (3DT – U. Houston) Making sure I have a pass rush that allows me to compete in my division is a must and this is actually an easy pick for me, Oliver is going to help make life very uneasy for opposing offenses for a long time. Grade: Top 10 6 – N.Y. Jets (via. N.Y. Giants) – T.J. Hockenson (TE – Iowa) In moving down to 6 I love the idea of adding a universal weapon to the offense, Hockenson improves the offense as a whole better than any other player in the draft. Additionally I get to add another top tier starter in the 2nd round. Grade: Top 10 * Trade * Jacksonville trades the 7th pick to Cincinnati for the 11th and 42nd picks in the 2019 draft. 7 – Cincinnati (via. Jacksonville) – Dwayne Haskins (QB – O.S.U.) Rumor has it Washington and Buffalo or Detroit have a deal in place for a QB and I think its Haskins, so while I am loaded with late round lottery tickets, I make the move to secure my franchise QB, and don’t mind paying a premium (17%) to do so. Like the first pick in the draft, I am giving my coach who he feels can run his system and be the face of the franchise moving forward. Grade: 1st Round * Trade * Detroit trades the 8th and 146th picks to the Bronco’s for the 10th and 71st picks in the 2019 draft. 8 – Denver (via. Detroit) – Devin White (ILB – L.S.U.) Detroit is looking to move down and gain what they can, I as the GM of the Broncos really want Devin White to anchor my LB core for the next decade and do not want to take the chance Buffalo themselves taking him, or that they have a deal in place with someone (they do with the Raiders for picks 24 and 35) to move up and get him. Grade: Top 10 * Trade * Buffalo trades the 9th and 112th picks to Carolina for the 16th and 47nd picks in the 2019 draft. 9 – Carolina (via. Buffalo) – Jonah Williams (LT/G/C – Alabama) This trade really comes down to me wanting to give Cam Newton the ability to stay upright for as long as possible. Williams provides and upgrade at LT or LG, allowing the coaching staff to get the best mix between him and Taylor Moton at LT and LG or if Darryl Williams doesn’t regain his form, Moton can slide back over to RT. Grade: Top 20 10 – Detroit (via. Denver) – Brian Burns (Edge/DPR/SLB/43DE – F.S.U.) Coach wants to be able to play more Dollar coverage, and in order to do so the defensive line is going to have to get pressure in waves and Burns can come in and be that fast ball off the edge, adding a unique dimension not currently on the roster. 11 – Jacksonville (via. Cincinnati) – Noah Fant (TE – Iowa) The trade back works out just as I had hoped, with both my primary and secondary trade back targets on the board in addition to several other I would gladly take. Fant diversifies the passing attack and will allow Foles to have the safety blanket he needs to function as efficiently as possible in this offense. Grade: Top 20 * Trade * Green Bay trades the 12th pick to Pittsburgh for the 20th and 52nd picks in the 2019 draft. 12 – Pittsburgh (via. Green Bay) – Devin Bush (ILB/WLB – Michigan) As the GM of the Steelers I want Devin Bush to be the play making eraser Ryan Shazier’s was in my defense. Bush’s ability to play the run, pass and blitz make him the 3 down LB to anchor my defense for years to come and a component the defense has been sorely missing. Grade: Top 20 * Trade * Miami trades the 13th pick to Houston for the the 23rd, 55th pick and a 2020 2nd Round pick. 13 – Houston (via. Miami) – Andre Dillard (LT/T – Washington St.) Protecting Watson is my only priority and Dillard is the best pass protector at LT in the draft. Grade: 1st Round 14 – Atlanta – Montez Sweat (43DE/Edge/DPR) – Miss. St.)(RF – Med) I don’t anticipate Vic Beasley being around long, Sweat’s heart has been cleared by my doctors and his slide ends here. Grade: Top 20 * Trade * Washington trades the 15th and 96thpick to Arizona for Josh Rosen and the 33rd pick. 15 – Arizona (via. Washington) – Marquise Brown (SWR – Oklahoma)(RF – Med) Not only is Kilff in my ear about Kyler, now about Marquise Brown, and if that wasnt bad enough, now Kyler is also in my ear about his favorite weapon at Oklahoma. Its all about giving the dynamic duo what they need to turn this franchise around. Washington pays the equivalent of the 34th pick (high 2nd round) to obtain Josh Rosen. Grade: 2nd Round 16 – Buffalo (via. Carolina) – Christian Wilkins (DT – Clemson) Easy pick for Buffalo at this spot, despite having Jawaan Taylor rated higher, I believe I can make a move and land a RT later in the draft, but not an interior disruptor. Wilkins is also 100% a process guy. Grade: Top 20 17 – N.Y. Giants (via. Cleveland) – Jawaan Talyor (RT/T/G – Florida) I cant believe Wilkins and Taylor fall this late and whomever Buffalo doesn’t take, I am estatic to land Taylor at 17 whom will benefit the run and pass game tremendously. Grade: Top 20 18 – Minnesota – Cody Ford (RT/G – Oklahoma) Minnesota needs to find a solution to their offensive line issues, and Ford allows them to work on finding the right mix. Grade: 1st Round 19 – Tennessee – Dexter Lawrence (NT – Clemson) Lawrence reminds me a lot of Vince Wilfork coming out of Miami, an athletic big man who can not only collapse the pocket with power but has some surprising athletic skills as well, being able to win with quickness. This allows me to slide J. Casey off the nose and be disruptive from his more natural 3DT. Grade: Top 20 20 –Green Bay (via. Pittsburgh) – Dalton Risner (RT/C/G – Kansas St.) Im going to “reach” here given the recent run on offensive lineman and my need for a versatile piece that can play RT, G or C, helping me keep Aaron Rodgers protected to the best of my ability. Grade: 2nd Round 21 – Seattle – Clelin Ferrell (43DE – Clemson) After trading away Frank Clark I look to replace his production and ability level on the defensive front. Grade: 1st Round 22 – Baltimore – Garrett Bradbury (C/G – N.C. St.) Needing help and C and LG, I take Bradbury to help where it is needed most. Grade: Top 20 23 – Miami (via. Houston) – Jeffery Simmons (DT – Miss. St.)(RF – Med) I can put him on the PUP list for the entire 2019 season and have him ready to roll, fully healthy in 2020 when I actually care about winning again, also sliding down the draft and adding 2020 draft capital to make moves if needed helps facilitate this. Grade: Top 20 (Top 10 talent) 24 – Oakland (via. Chicago) – Greedy Williams (CB – L.S.U) Sometimes a gift falls into your lap, and I am going to take it. Grade: Top 20 25 – Philadelphia – Byron Murphy (CB – Washington) The secondary is full of question marks, Murphy is an answer. Grade: 1st Round 26 – Indianapolis – Johnathan Abram (SS – Miss. St.) I have got to go with the talent here and thoughts of Abram and Hooker swirl through my head picks, like a kid in a candy store. Its almost too good to be true. Grade: 1st Round 27 – Oakland (via. Dallas) – Josh Jacobs (RB – Alabama) I am just stacking top flight SEC talent at this point and who better to replace Beast Mode with the diverse, physical, 3 down RB1 in Jacobs? Grade: 1st Round 28 – L.A. Chargers – Nasir Adderley (FS/S – Delaware) Much like the Colts did with their pick, I am doing with mine for the Chargers, James making near the LOS, and Adderley covering up the back end. Grade: 1st Round * Trade * Seattle trades the 29th pick to Buffalo for the 47th, 74th, and 131st picks in the 2019 draft. 29 – Buffalo (via. Seattle/Kansas City) – D.K. Metcalf (WR – Ole Miss)(RF – Med) I cant help myself, and the team doctors cleared him. I believe Metcalf could be the true #1 receiver we lack. Grade Top 20 30 – Green Bay – Irv Smith Jr. (TE/HB – Alabama) With the 30th pick in the draft, I am going to keep giving Aaron Rodgers pieces to maximize his efficiency, and in Smith Jr. a moving piece for LaFleur’s offense. Grade: 2nd Round 31 – L.A. Rams – Erik McCoy (C/G – Texas A & M) Having needs at C/G and G again along the interior of my offensive line, this pick is an easy one for me. Grade: 1st Round 32 – New England – Paris Campbell (WR/SWR – Ohio St.) This draft has to be about finding Brady weapons and Campbell showed at the combine he is more than just a slot receiver and can fill a variety of roles, a perfect fit. Grade: 2nd Round Round 2 33 – Washington (via. Arizona) – Chase Winchovich (Edge/DPR/43DE – Michigan) Grade: 2nd Round 34 – Indianapolis (via. N.Y.J.) – Chris Lindstrom (G – Boston College) Grade: 2nd Round 35 – Oakland – Rashan Gary (43DE/3DT – Michigan) Grade: 2ND Round 36 – San Francisco – N’Keal Harry (WR – Arizona St.) Grade: 2nd Round 37 – N.Y. Jets (via. N.Y. Giants) – Jaylon Ferguson (43DE – LA Tech.) Grade: 2nd Round 38 – Jacksonville – Darnell Savage (FS/NCB – Maryland) Grade: 2nd Round 39 – Tampa Bay – Mack Wilson (ILB/OLB – Alabama) Grade: 2ND Round 40 – Buffalo – Kahale Warring (TE – S.D. St.) Grade: 2nd Round 41 – Denver – Drew Lock (QB – Mizzu) Grade: 2nd Round 42 – Jacksonville (via. Cincinnati) – Jerry Tillery (3DT – Notre Dame) Grade: 2nd Round 43 – Detroit – DeAndre Baker (CB – Georgia) Grade: 1st Round 44 – Green Bay – Andy Isabella (SWR/WR – U. Mass.) Grade: 1st Round 45 – Atlanta – Dre’Mont Jones (3DT/DPR) Grade: 2nd Round 46 – Washington – A.J. Brown (WR/SWR – Ole Miss) Grade: 2nd Round 47 – Seattle (via. Buffalo/Carolina) – Deebo Samuel (WR – S. Carolina) Grade: 2nd Round 48 – Miami – Rock Ya-Sin (CB – Temple) Grade: 2nd Round 49 – Cleveland – Greg Little (LT – Ole Miss) Grade: Grade: 2nd Round 50 – Minnesota – Taylor Rapp (SS/S – Washington) Grade: 2nd Round 51 – Tennessee – Elgton Jenkins (C/G – Miss St) Grade: 2nd Round 52 – Green Bay (via. Pittsburgh) – Jachai Polite (Edge/DPR – Florida)(RF – LFB) Grade: 2nd Round 53 – Philadelphia (via. Baltimore) – Tytus Howard (RT – Alabama St.) Grade: 2nd Round 54 – Houston (via. Seattle) – Julian Love (NCB/CB – Notre Dame) Grade: Grade: 2nd Round 55 – Miami (via. Houston) – Yodny Cajuste (LT/T/G – W.V.U.) Grade: 2nd Round 56 – New England (via. Chicago) – Dawson Knox (TE – Ole Miss) Grade: 2nd Round 57 – Philadelphia – Germaine Pratt (ILB – N.C. St.) Grade: 2nd Round 58 – Dallas – Juan Thornhill (FS/CB/S – Virginia) Grade: 2nd Round 59 – Indianapolis – Khalen Saunders (NT – W. Illinois) Grade: 2nd Round 60 – L.A. Chargers – Deionte Thompson (FS – Alabama) Grade: Grade: 2nd Round 61 – Kansas City – Trayvon Mullen (CB – Clemson) Grade: 2nd Round 62 – New Orleans – Hakeem Butler (WR – Iowa St.) Grade: 2nd Round 63 – Kansas City (via. L.A. Rams) – Connor McGovern (G/C – Penn St.) Grade: 2nd Round 64 – New England – Daniel Jones (QB – Duke) Grade: 2nd Round

Love the post (agree with everything in it) and have an honest question; If you could trade up with Tampa at a modest premium (+5% or so) using 1st, 3rd, 4th, + (in this draft or maybe a future 3/4) for 5 and land Q. Williams at 5 and say Irv Smith, Metcalf (If he falls) or a Kahale Warring in the 2nd, would you do it?

At 9 he is a initially a DPR (50% snap count in Nickel +, opposite Hughes in pass rush situations) who is a future Lorax, A. Barr type SLB (he showed stand up coverage ability at the combine in the OLB drills as a zone drop defender, natural and smooth movement skills, made a nice athletic INT play during drills) who can or does drop down to DPR/DE in rush situations. He initially allows for Shaq to drop inside to DT (where he is a better pass rusher)and have a NASCAR like rush package, balances (opposite Hughes) and helps diversify the front now and into the future, providing an spark to the pass rush which is needed for immediate team success. If he can add more functional weight and strength in addition to what he did at the combine, I believe down the road he could be a full time DE, but not initially, and more likely a hybrid player long term. Nickel is the new base, Burns affects passing attacks. Burns only similarities to Maybin pass rush wise is Burns playing at a lower weight in college, unlike Maybin however, Burns put weight on and did not lose his athleticism, in fact his combine numbers at a higher weight were “Von Mlleresque”. Burns ability to change directions and bend agility wise at 249 pounds are superior to anything Maybin could ever do, Maybin was a pure straight line and pray speed rusher, and only at 230 pounds, he had no counters, no hand moves, and no ability to change directions or vary his pass rush, literally a one trick pony. Burns however has a counter jab or inside side step, and spin that are affective and uses them by design, while maintaining elite balance and body control, allowing him to get to scrambling QBs and run them down and finish, Maybin never had, nor developed these abilities. Burns has Maybins collegiate first step, pure upfield speed and that is the last of their similarities rushing the passer, that is the only redeeming quality for Maybin, only Burns can turn the corner and finish, another thing athletically Maybin could not do as Burns ability to dip balance and flatten, and feet are better. Burns also uses his hands much more effectively than Maybin ever did, he has improved every year in this ability, has improved his versatility as a football player every year as well and is still an actively ascending talent. Something Maybin never did in college and was not in the pros, Burns is vastly superior to Maybin in not only rushing the passer but as a college player who is interested into developing as a professional football player.

Warring would be the easy pick for me at 74 then, I think there is a good chance he doesn’t make it out of the 2nd though. I could see them going with Wilkins over Burns, who I’m surprised isn’t getting more love in general from draftniks and I’ve even heard several critiques for adding weight and going down the Maybin path, but it’s actually the opposite with Burns. I think he has the best tool box regarding pure pass rushing skills of anyone in the draft, athleticism and techniques are both plus’s for me. I agree reed with you on DK, but the medicals on him are huge, something id love to know/see, but won’t and we’ll find out at the draft, he’s got top 10 talent imo. Pre Fa I thought he was a possibility at 9, now I don’t but I could see them taking him later one way or another.

Thank you for posting those options, I appreciate it! At 9: Wilkins (fits character traits and positional need to a T, ideally IMO trade down target), Burns (Added 20 lb's and still athletically dominated the combine, fits Character as well, pick 9 is fine with me), Williams (if they believe he can play T dtaLB is not a need and Dillard does not fit the physical style, but as a pass blocking LT would fit, especially if they believe Dawkins could slide over to RT full time. Tough choice for me between Hock and Burns, but I go Burns (positional value primarily) here. Immediate impact on the pass rush opposite Hughes and a long term solution given the contractual and age state of the DE position and pass rush. Would be really comfortable moving down to 15 in this situation w/5 guys I like still on the board and a QB being picked at 9. At 40: DeAndre Baker is an easy value pick, although Im trying to figure out his character concerns, Risner could be a back up C, and RT option for now or the future, good value. Lindstrom would be a fantastic value pick, but I think they are happy at G for now. Going Risner here, positional versatility and long term RT. At 74: Is Kahale Warring available? Im just starting to evaluate Knox, but like what I see for sure and think he can be more productive all around TE in the NFL than he was at Ole Miss. If Warring is available I go him for now, but Knox ability to get vertical and block works as well given what I think they want in a TE. 9 - Brian Burns (Edge/DPR - FSU) 40 - Dalton Risner (RT/C/G - Kansas St.) 74 - Dawson Knox (TE - Ole Miss) Thats what I would do.

This (top 3 picks) would be Aaron Maybin level awful for me. Even though I cant see who is available at those spots, I'd imagine there are better options. I do like the 4th round picks and the punter!!

Cajun, Gary at 9 is my personal nightmare for this team, I see the potential athletically but the lack of production IMO stems from a lack of development and body control in relation, to his CoD skills and agility when playing with speed in space, he cant turn at the top of the arc, something is off with his full body coordination when it comes to play angles. He's a power rusher, little else IMO, I described him the other day as a Shaq Lawson with a better first step and fewer counter moves. If he cant power through a guy, he's pretty much dead in the water, I think he's more comfortable in a phone booth than out on the edge where one needs a plan. Him going before Buffalo at 9, along with 2-3 QB's would be an ideal situation. wppete, I appreciate the award! As for Gary you could be right, especially if he develops his hands, pass rush techniques and consistency among other things. I just hope its not Buffalo that over drafts him. He is going to need a developmental plan for whomever takes him, watching him always leaves me wanting more and expecting more. If they took him in the 2nd round Id be ok with it, 9 is way to high. He is not all that much different of a player leaving college as he was when arrived, that kind of shallow learning curve is a cause of concern for me, with his tool box, growth should have happened, IMO not enough of it did. I think he's way more of a developmental player than most realize and it'll be interesting to see how far he slides on draft night if the league doesnt over draft him.

Thanks Bandito, I look forward to hearing some of your thoughts! J-Love is a favorite of mine, he's going to need safety help over the top, but in the right system he is going to be a stud, C2 man/zone he'll excell. Really enjoyed watching him play live and then again on tape, excellent feel for the game and a heady player who has plus technical skills. Despite speed concerns im confident he'll play in the league for a long time. I thought Lance Zierlein's scouting report on NFL.com was spot on. Okereke is IMO the best of the developmental Off-ball OLB's in the draft given his athletic ability and skill set, as the class (off ball olb) as a whole is putrid, probably the worst I can recall in my 22 years following the draft. He needs some time to marinate on a practice squad IMO and focus on playing the Sam or Will, I dont see him at ILB in the NFL. I thought Stanford misused him, playing him at ILB and he'll be better off focusing on playing OLB, his lack of functional strength and physicality was obvious on tape in the 3 I watched.

Never, my last car was bills Blue with red and white lights, license plate covers and flags were all Bills, just had half a meal comped by a restaurant manager in D.C. this past weekend for myself and kids wearing Bills and Sabres gear into the restaurant, almost got into a fist fight in the Denver airport a couple years ago over wearing Bills gear, I have met many great people because of wearing Bills gear from coast to coast. I Wear it proudly every where, Sabres gear as well, had a random Sabres fan buy me a Blue at a Hurricanes game (not playing the Sabres fwiw) a couple weeks a go in Raleigh for wearing my Eichel jersey and Sabres hat to the game, saved me 10 minutes in line...

There were questions regarding his age when he was drafted, hasnt had a healthy full season since 2015. He'll be 30 in May, production is there when healthy. http://www.nfl.com/player/ezekielansah/2539931/careerstats

This thread should have a poll.

I watch a ton of the Skins down here, guy is a quality swing tackle and a potential starter in the event he needs to be, this is another quality signing. Also keeps options open moving forward through FA and the draft for the oline.

Love this signing in addition to Brown's earlier! The Bills are going to be able to go spread/empty and force teams into 2 deep coverage, allowing Allen to run if needed, while having the parts needed threaten all areas of the field in the passing game. If they get the oline figured out, they will have the components of a fully functional offense.

Really sounds like McVay needs to read the Art of War, or at least chapters I, III, VI, VIII, XI and XIII for good measure... All battles are won before they are fought... The Super Bowl it appears to have been lost before and during the fight.

Another coach on the field, more flexability and instant depth, sign me up!

I agree with all of this, I am not big on the Lock or Jones love myself, I havent gotten into them much yet, but my initial evals on them have them as closer to 3rd round guys than 1st... Elways a wild card for sure, I could see him doing about anything, which fits the mold, I thought he lucked into his situation initially as a GM and recently his true ability is starting to show through.

I remember last year well and agree that class was viewed very favorably in general and IMO blows this years class out of the water. So far this year there seem to be 3 QB's being consistently talked about in the 1st round (if the little person you refer too is Murray and Meh is Lock) and not as highly regarded as last years class, 4 if one considers Jones. What they are trading up for is a QB, the Chiefs paid a premium to move up from 27 to 10, Houston as well in moving up from 25 to 12 and settling for Watson in the 2017 draft and that class had many questions leading up to the draft, with the Texans getting the "meh" prospect according to some. If teams (Washington in this situation) value a QB enough to move up for one, they are more likely than not, going to pay a premium, that seems to be consistently the rule, not the exception, thats my point in all of my comments about the Bills will be "Lucky" type of posts to get a 2nd round pick to move down to 15... This regime has paid and charged a premium to move up and down for QB's, its not likely they are going to cut a team a break because because Lock is a "meh" prospect according to Washington themselves, NewEra, P51, Buffalo themselves or anyone. If they want to move ahead of Denver to get Lock for instance, Washington I believe will have to pay to do so, just the same as Houston, KC, Buffalo, NYJ, Chicago have done recently to move ahead of whomever. What the premium is? I dont know it could just be the 46th pick but I highly doubt they'll "settle" for less. I do know how Buffalo has operated in the last 2 drafts, and I dont see them moving down at a discount or even trade value for a QB, and thats not saying that they couldn't. If they value 6 players the same at 9 knowing Washington is taking a QB at 9 and they'll land 1/6 at 15 and want the extra pick(s) like Oakland did last year, then they could take the fair or reduced value. I just see the chances of that being slim given their recent history.
