LEBills

Darian Porter visited per 55:50 in on this interview he did

yea still don’t like it

So we took two 1-techs and moved our late second for an early third and to make our early 4th a late third and our late fifth a fourth?…. Hopefully next version goes better

I adore Ricky White. If he was just a little bigger he would have skyrocketed up my rankings (I initially had him top 10 prior to his weigh ins). McMillan def is but I think Ayomanor, Harris, Horton, and Golden can all be #1 types. I think Burden and Higgins can in the right settings. I like the middle of this class a lot, but the top is definitely lower than say last years class

I think Hairston shoulder injury held back his tackling this year. He was much more involved in 2023. Though a 180 pound corner who is tentative due to injuries is it’s own can of worms.

very small sample size for Porter tho, that’s the most concerning part

The rumor was this was going to be a small invitee pool…guess not

My personal 2025 WR rankings: 1. Tet McMillan, Arizona 2. Elic Ayomanor, Stanford 3. Emeka Egbuka, Ohio State 4. Tre Harris, Ole Miss 5. Luther Burden, Mizzou 6. Tory Horton, CSU 7. Matthew Golden, Texas 8. Jayden Higgins, ISU 9. Jaylin Royals, USU 10. Jack Bech, TCU 11. Kyle Williams, WSU 12. Jaylin Noel, ISU/Elijah Badger, Florida 13. Donte Thornton, Tennessee 14. Isaiah Bond, Texas 15. Tai Felton, Maryland 16. Nick Nash, SJSU 17. Pat Bryant, Illinois 18. Keandre Lambert Smith, Auburn 19. Xavier Restrepo, Miami 20. Savion Williams, TCU 21. Tez Johnson, Oregon 22. Ricky White, UNLV 23. Jaylin Lane, VT 24. Andrew Armstrong, Arkansas My Personal 2025 best Bills fits: *Assuming McMillan, Golden, and Egbuka are gone 1. Tory Horton: Draft Capital, speed and punt return ability 2. Tre Harris: Prototype X that allows Keon to share time at X and slot. Deep threat. 3. Kyle Williams: Game breaking speed from all alignments 4. Jack Bech: Mack Hollins replacement as a WR/TE hybrid 5. Elic Ayomanor - Prototype X and excellent blocker but more raw than the Bills may have patience to develop 6. Luther Burden: a bit redundant to Shakir, but the talent is so overwhelming you make it fit 7. Dont’e Thornton: 4.3 speed Deep ball threat 8. Jaylin Noel: vertical slot player with both kick and punt return experience 9. Jaylin Royals: YAC threat who can be a menace as the singled up receiver in the Bills 4x1 sets 10. Ricky White: blocked 4 punts, plays punt coverage, and can play all roles at WR in a pinch Bonus: Monaray Baldwin (Baylor): 4.32 speed, will be a UDFA, will come with a recommendation from Dave Aranda to Sean McDermott Thank you to all that have enjoyed. Ready to welcome one of these players to the team in 2 weeks. Go Bills!

I’ll take v1.0 over 2.0

Beane was at the South Carolina Pro Day and now we are having TJ Sanders in for a 30 visit. That is quite a bit of interest.

Yes!!! @Maine-iac

Yea I’ve come to appreciate that weight is important for receivers. That he hasn’t played at that higher weight is an unknown so I listed it as a weakness. But from all accounts he took his rehab extremely seriously, added the weight to his frame, and kept his speed. Very exciting. Yea tomorrow I will put out my list of best Bills fits of the WRs and Tory will be VERY high on it. I love him. Unfortunately the buzz is getting loud as we get closer to the draft so hopefully he remains in range for the Bills

Yea I’m much higher on Harris than most including a lot of the draft guys I respect 😬 Much better than Coleman in my humble opinion. But I do worry about his injuries.

The real draft won’t fall this way. With all Bills fans running teams, we tend to overvalue Bills associated prospects and gut the board. But I do love me some Tre Harris…

My personal 2025 WR rankings: #1 Terairoa McMillan WR Arizona (Round 1) - 5 star HS recruit - Over 2700 yards in past two seasons What does he do on film? Special player - 1:24 filthy whip route for a 6’4’’ Receiver. Looks like Julio Jones with the way he sunk his hips - 4:43 he did it again! - 3:37 great job repositioning himself on the underthrown ball against two defenders. Played to his size - 13:40 - 14:40 just 1 minute straight of McMillan schooling Travis Hunter - 14:53 splitting the deep zone for a spectacular catch - 17:05 swipes away the attempted jam, quickly hits the slant for a first - 21:41 slows down to stay in the perfect hole in the zone. When he has a run way those long strides eat up a lot of ground! - 24:43 very impressed by his feel in zone coverage. It’s going to be so crucial to him at the next level to dominate the center of the field like this - 26:01 looks like a grown up playing 500 in the backyard with his kids Weaknesses: - He is not explosive, his top speed isn’t bad but it take him time to get there - Inconsistent in how physical he plays - No special YAC ability limits short route effectiveness Conclusion: There is no other choice, McMillan is a star. If he isn’t the first WR off the board this year, the team that passes on him will regret it. Excellent feel vs zone, difficult to shadow in intermediate routes and then too big downfield or in the red zone to stop. McMillan does need to be a bit more consistent in both his tenacity and hand placement downfield. But I think we will see notable improvement in his yards after catch in the NFL when he is paired with a better QB. I’m looking forward to seeing his professional career

A’zareye’h Thomas, third from the bottom

Tre Harris 🥰

WR has been pretty light and should be heavily listed in the poll imo Tre Harris has been mentioned, Bills had a 30 visit with Jalen Royals, Jaylin Noel has many fans on the board (idt he has been taken), I like Elic Ayomanor. Probably comes down to DLine or WR with the board this way. Beane was at the South Carolina pro day so they may be interested in DE Kyle Kennard as well as TJ Sanders (or he just missed sweet Carolina and went for the day)

With the 51st pick, the Denver Broncos select Azareye'h Thomas, CB, FSU After @Logic stole my precious Carson, the Broncos had to pivot to their second biggest defensive need - CB. Riley Moss is a bit of a folk hero and has had good moments for the Broncos but the second half of last year was tough for him. In his final 7 games, he allows a 75.5 completion percentage for 415 yards. With the amount of cover 1 that the Broncos played las year, they relied on their back end holding up. Thomas is an excellent man corner with exceptional length. I was very impressed with his physicality with WRs and did not see his high 4.5 40 speed to be an issue. This will allow Moss to be a quality depth and package corner for us sleepy @GunnerBill and the Seahawks are now on the clock

Collin Oliver is going to make some team very happy. Ridiculously efficient pass rusher. Bills kinda already filled the prior Zo Alexander role but could see him excelling like that Armstrong I think is a really good college receiver. He does a few things really well. But he is pretty old, and I think if he sticks on a roster it will be at the very end. I agree he is better than Teslaa. Boise is the college team I follow closest. Against PSU, Hassanein was one of the guys who played like he belonged. He isn’t going to be a star but a good rotational DL is likely imo. I’ll add one guy to your list if interested - and I think their are a lot of really interest 3rd day corners. Bilhal Kone CB from Western Michigan is my guy tho. His first two games vs Wisconsin and Ohio State were great. He was just everywhere, and able to cover up for his teammates mistakes. I think he is good enough to be a starter in the NFL, tho his inconsistent tackling will have some teams pass.

In a world where Anthony Richardson went 4th overall, I could see Milroe go first round. I’ll be rooting for him. Not sure that Pittsburgh would be the best spot for him.

Yea I know he has a good story, but we have drafted CBs in the first round twice and both times they have been very clean medically. I won’t hate the Revel pick but just think for CB they err on the side of caution medically

I don’t think the Bills will take Revel, Hairston or Morrison because of past injuries. Porter probably is older than they would like. I think it’ll be Amos or Thomas. Thomas will probably still be there round 2.

I could see the Rams being in play too - unless they plan to go big game hunting by trading for a QB after Stanford leaves. They already have started following the Eagles blueprint of stacking the DLine. I could see them envisioning Milroe as their Jalen Hurts. Especially after Hurts’ running was so effective on them in the playoffs

Suposedly your former QB Milroe is one of players that got invited to the draft. So he is expected to be a first rounder if that’s the case. Maybe we get 4 QBs in round 1 in reality?
