LEBills

Like any good blowhard he has no idea. No coaching staff wants Deion criticizing them all year and then trying to weasel his way into their job next year. Could see Milroe going before Shedeur too

That’s just the British spelling, like colour. No. Yes to one or two on day 3 tho. Always go with the 21 year old when predicting a Beane first round pick lol. Yea I’m much more excited for Hairston than when we drafted Elam. Elam was such a WTF pick. In addition to what you have said. Being in Kentucky’s defense has him very ready to play zone coverage which is the tougher one to get down and something Elam never could. I have 4 DTs I would be excited for on day 2, in order: Sanders, Farmer, CJ West, Darius Alexander. Sanders is my preferred player so hopefully the first round run on DTs helps him slide. Where do you have Xavier Watts ranked? He would be one of my preferred 2nd rounders with Scourton, Landon Jackson, and the WRs.

This is a bit of a nit pick, but Tre was 192 at the combine.

Yea Cosell tries not to be disparaging to players so he won’t usually say a player is bad. But if there is a guy he like he is usually effusive in his praise like he has been with Hairston. He was that way with James Cook in 2022 too.

Yes I don’t like Emmanwori in our defense and Collins doesn’t have the profile I look for and now his injury sounds more serious than what was expected.

Yea Cosell raved about him prior to the draft too. In 2023 he was a much bigger playmaker, in 2024 he was more sound in his coverage but got hurt. This won’t be an Elam pick where you are trying to teach a man corner how to play zone. The Kentucky and Bills defense has a lot of similarities so Hairston should play right away. My only concern for Hairston is his size. That he had a shoulder injury this year and is only 183 pounds will always have me worried but predicting injuries is a fools errand. Of what was left this was a very good pick.

WR: Tory Horton, Kyle Williams, Elic Ayomanor, Tre Harris, Jalen Noel, Jalen Royals, Luther Burden DT: TJ Sanders, Josh Farmer, Darius Alexander, CJ West, if none of them wait till day 3 DE: Scourton, Landon Jackson, Ezeiruaku, Swinson, Kennard, Sai’vion Jones LB: Carson Shweisenger. If not him wait till day 3 RB: Treyveon Henderson. if not him wait till day 3 s: Xavier Watts, if not him wait till day 3

To be fair to Hairston, that is partly a function of the Kentucky defense. They had him giving up underneath routes all the time, but he doesn’t get beat over the top.

Nice!

Of course, stinkin ravens every year

Don’t forget the Carson schwesinger rumors 😬

All these teams taking the whole time trying to trade down lol

Campbell has some injury concerns is what was being reported

Dane Brugler, Benjamin Albright and Peter Schrager? I kid. I would like Starks as long as it’s at 30 or a small enough move up that it’s only a day 3 pick

Nice!

I like it for the Jags.Hunter is special and makes the Jags interesting. And usually if the Browns make a trade they wind up losing it lol

Tremaine was a pre draft visitor that we did not hear about until post draft so there is precedent of an unknown visit becoming a first round draft pick. I’m pretty sure Azarey’h Thomas would have been one of the 7 unknowns. Grant may have been too. I hope he is long gone personally.

Ever since you predicted Zaven Collins a few years ago, I always check your Cardinals picks. If Membou goes early I think the Dolphins go corner but it may be awhile for another one to go off the board like you have here. You gotta speak Nic Scourton to Buffalo into existence, I know that’s who you want in your heart haha. I’m still incredulous the Bills will go for Amos over someone younger in round 1.

This seems to be more of an idea by a bleacher report writer than a rumor

Mine that I made from scratch: 1. Ten: Cam Ward, QB 2. CLE: Travis Hunter, OP 3.NYG: Abdul Carter, EDGE 4. NE: Will Campbell, OL 5. JAX: Ashton Jeanty, RB 6. OAK: Kelvin Banks, OT 7.

DET: Landon Jackson, DE 29. WAS: Donovan Ezeiruaku, EDGE 30. BUF: Nic Scourton, DE The Bills acquire the player they have been quietly covering. Bosa and AJ are on expiring contracts. Scourton gives them a young pass rusher in the pipeline 31. KC: Josh Simmons, OT 32. PHI: Emeka Egbuka, WR Remaining Bills picks 56. Azareye’h Thomas, CB 62. Josh Farmer, DT 109 and 132 traded for 96. Tory Horton, WR 169. Jaylen Reed, S 170. Cam Horsely, DT 173. Teddy Buchanan, LB 177. “Ice” Waxter, CB 206. Arian Smith, WR

These are always a lot of work so good job. I agree with most of the picks in the top 10 aside from Warren. I think a new coach that watched Sewell and Hutchinson being drafted early in Detroit will try and mirror that with either Banks, Graham or a DE du jour. I don’t know which Edge guys will go 15&16 but I can’t see those being other positions. Im of the mindset that Hairston’s floor is going to be GB if all his medicals are clear. And him being the first CB off the board isn’t ludicrous. WJ not testing sounds like it has soured some teams and Barron will be more the eye of the beholder on if he can play outside. I think Amos does make the most logical sense for the Bills in these mocks. A first round CB is basically guaranteed to be a starter and Amos is very good and has a clean medical history. His age isn’t normally what Beane looks for in an early pick is the only thing giving me pause from making this a lock if he is there at 30. I can’t get AZ Thomas out of my brain for the Bills, hopefully with a small trade down. We shall see.

Our safeties were baddd but I agree the resource allocation would sadden me, and I think Starks is good. Brugler got the Elam pick right in 2022 but besides that no one has gotten the Bills pick right since 2022. And at least 3 of them all had us selecting Breece Hall in 23. Until it leaks the day of the draft that the Bills hosted Starks (like it happened with Elam) I’m going to assume what they are hearing is what the Bills want them to hear

I like Joe. Most of the more polished Bills reporters are not Bills fans, the people that are and podcast about the Bills are usually either boring or not too inciteful. Joe toes the line of being professional while being a Bills fan pretty well. However, I don’t think he is a great talent evaluator, despite his background as an online scout for the draft network. Prefer LockedOn during the season.

Per Tony Pauline: “There’s been a lot of talk over how weak the first round of this year’s draft is, and I’m told the Buffalo Bills have just 12 players graded as true first-round prospects. In the end, this means players taken in the bottom half of the initial frame are second-round talents.” https://www.sportskeeda.com/nfl/news-insider-notes-red-flags-will-johnson-jihaad-campbell-possible-kirk-cousins-saints-trade I don’t think we will be trading up if that’s the case. Maybe a trade down?

Hoping gunners cockney accent is like how I do it when I read his posts 🤞
