    Because the options at safety are limited.  He and Bishop IMHO are the guys I want to see win the starting spots.


    I get it in that context. But otherwise I like him as a chess piece/heir apparent to Johnson. Hoping Forrest takes that starting role next to Bishop. Hey, if Hancock can come in and pair up with Bishop for a long while I’m fine with that though!

    Beane said Hancock will play NCB and safety.  I'm hoping that Hardy seizes the NCB role and allows them to play Hancock exclusively at S.


    Why are you hoping that for Hancock? To me, a big part of his appeal is his versatility.

    Setting aside the pros and cons of signing him, do we really need another Gabe Davis thread?


    Let’s list the pros and cons of a new thread in a new thread

    I don't really want anyone to fill the "Hollins role".  We should be shooting for better WRs than Hollins or Davis.  They drafted a  blocking TE that can block and not catch more than 2 passes per game.  That fills the "Hollins Role".


    Hollins was one of our outside WRs who can block and play special teams. Davis is similar. WR and TE are different and require distinct roles and body types. For what it’s worth, our TE room is pretty typical and well-rounded with a pass catching TE in Kincaid, do-it-all TE in Knox, and blocking TE in Hawes. 

  5. Kind of surprised how many are so strongly opposed to bringing him in.

     

    Fits Hollins’ role well. Blocker. Field stretcher. Outside WR. Excelled in a WR4 role. Some element of familiarity with OBD and JA17. Does not affect comp pick formula. 
     

    Would it be a bad thing to have six solid WRs? Samuel, Coleman, and Kincaid were each injured last year.

    Posters blow that out of proportion though. Anyone that the Chiefs Draft, sign, or might sign sends a lot of them into panic. If *any* player becomes available, it's inevitable that you'll see "oh god, please don't go the Chiefs". Even if it is a marginal player. Bc it's always assumed that if the Chiefs sign them, they're going to get the best possible version of that player and more. Now we should be giving thanks that they didn't sign Elijah Moore - even when they weren't in on him? That's a little much for me.

     

    I like that we signed Elijah Moore, given our situation at WR. But if the Chiefs signed him? I wouldn't lose any sleep. 

     

    I just get a litte irked by the constant Chiefs obsession and fear posting. They live rent free in so many Bills fans minds. I can guarantee Chiefs fans don't give a crap what we're doing. If i'm a Chiefs fan seeing all the fear posting (and there's a few on here) - i'd laugh.


    I hear you and I’m definitely not advocating OBD roster builds with solely or even primarily the Chiefs in mind. Still, I think if the Chiefs signed Moore, then I’d be disappointed about the very real possibility he gets unlocked there, and that is just a little bit further support for why I like the signing, which I really do.

    Why? They weren't in on him. They have Rashee Rice, Xavier Worthy, Hollywood Brown, Jalen Royals, Skyy Moore, JuJu Smith-Schuster, and Tyquan Thornton. Hanging on every move they make, don't make, and expressing thanks for them not making moves that they weren't ever going to make is taking the fear of them too far. 


    I agree they likely would not have had interest, but I think a good standard or logic to apply is if you would feel bad about the Chiefs getting him, then you should be happy the Bills did.

    Thanks gonzo, this is helpful to visualize!

     

    Not a need, but I wouldn’t mind spending one of the 6th round picks on QB Will Howard or Kyle McCord, if available. I don’t think they’ll be anything special but it would be nice to have 4 years of a cheap cost controlled QB2. 


    Also would not mind Riley Leonard because (I’m a biased ND fan and) he reminds me of a Diet Josh Allen.

  9. My last stab at it:
     

    30: Amos - CB - Ole Miss

     

    56: Williams - DT - Ohio State

     

    62: Collins - DT - Texas

     

    (109 & 132 to MIN for 97)

     

    97: Felton - WR - Maryland

     

    169: Bryant - CB - Kansas

     

    170: Roberts - DE - SMU

     

    173: Evans - TE - Notre Dame

     

    177: Dolac - LB - Buffalo

     

    206: Lundt - OT - Connecticut
