Here's the conservative road to 10-6:
-3-3 in the division (2-0 Dolphins, 1-1 Jets, 0-2 Patriots)
-Somewhat easy wins against Giants, Bengals, Titans, Redskins, Broncos, Ravens
-Win 1 of Browns, Eagles, Cowboys, Steelers
I think that is very doable.

Wow a Thanksgiving game would be cool. I consider that a primetime game.We'll know for sure in a few hours.

Metcalf is built like a muscle monster and should have dominated college. He does not run good routes and will be another Kelvin Benjamin. No way they are taking that.
Benjamin is lazy. Metcalf is the polar opposite. If he busts it won't have anything to do with his drive.

So, you want the Bills to be able to SCORE points, but not be able to stop the OTHER team from scoring (26th in sacks last year, several games where they got gashed by a running back; see Leonard Fournette and Marlon Mack)?
Is this a bit that you're doing? Because it feels a lot like a bit.

I'm at about 90% confidence he doesn't get past pick 15. Based on what we know today, anyway.
I could see him falling past 15 but I'd be really surprised if he falls out of the 1st entirely. A physical freak with NFL pedigree. The NFL falls in love with prospects like that. I'd say the only thing holding him back from being a definite top 10 pick is his injury history.

Does DK bump our newly signed Brown? Or does he bump Foster - who I'm not banking on, but I believe earned his opportunity?
Because he is raw I think he would be brought on slowly to replace Brown. That contract is easy to get out of after a year.

He needs to be an undisputed #1 receiver though.
Me too. Lower ceiling, admittedly, but significantly higher floor. Wouldn't take either at #9 though.
He does need to be a #1 receiver to be taken that high, absolutely. But I wouldn't take the higher floor player at 9. With that logic you'd take Christian Wilkins over Ed Oliver. I take the elite potential in the top 10 every time.

Unless he is the second coming of Julio - which there is nothing saying he is remotely close to that - then you have to take a safe, plug-and-play starter on the O or Dline.
He definitely does not need to be a Hall of Fame caliber receiver to justify picking him at 9.
An offensive lineman at 9 would be a mistake IMO. A d-lineman I would be happy with. Offensive line you can find better value after the 1st round.
The only thing that scares me about Metcalf is his injury history. Beyond that he's a physical and athletic freak who loves the game of football and is known as a workout warrior. Yeah I'll take that player at 9 any year. Of course some guy on a podcast saying we'll take him doesn't mean anything.

I called TJ yesterday when Beane was asked about the RBs being old and will he draft one.
He said he likes a RB still available in FA.
Yeldon catches well out of the backfield.
If they sign him they can draft a RB high next year.
I read this post three times before I realized you aren't good friends with TJ Yeldon

Interesting. This regime really doesn't like to draft RBs.

Great pick
I thought for sure Arizona would take him. It was a no brainer after their pick.

The Texans GM sprints to the podium and selects Cody Ford, OT/G from Oklahoma. Deshaun Watson was sacked a whopping 62 times in 2018 and there has been no effort to improve his protection in free agency. Ford offers position versatility as a RT or G, or even LT in a pinch.
@BuffaloHokie13 and the Giants are on deck.

had a better career than 75% of guys drafted.
Sure, because 75% of drafted players don't even become JAGs. He was worthy of starting for a team that lacked talent at receiver. He was good enough to produce as a #3 WR for a couple of seasons with the greatest QB of all time throwing him the ball. By NFL standards that's a solid career. But it doesn't mean we lost out on anything when he walked.

only Bills fans can think a guy who started for the Pats isn’t good enough for us.
Hogan wasn't good for the Pats either. Yeah he produced some. So did Philip Dorsett. Wide receiver was a major weakness for them last year and Hogan was one of the problems. Of course with Brady throwing the ball anyone would produce. There's a reason they're letting him walk for a $2 million contract. If he was on the Bills any of the past three years he wouldn't have made a significant difference. Right now he'd be an underdog to make the team.

This is a perfect comparison. Andrew Holmes had a season with 700 yards and 4 TDs, with a rookie Derek Carr throwing him the ball. Sometimes average or bad players produce for a season. At the end of the day he is still Andre Holmes.

Look at the fawning over the signing of tiny JAG Cole Beasley--one dimensional player who needs nearly 90 targets to get as many yards as Hogan gets in under 60. but he, like Hogan, fills a role---just a more limited one.
Terrible comparison. There's a reason Cole Beasley got signed for a 4 year $29 million contract, and Hogan is getting a 1 year deal with a maximum of $2 million for the year. Beasley is one of the best slot receivers in the league, Hogan is someone you borrow for a year while you wait for the real thing.

I will take the Texans. Didn't read through the whole thread, when is the draft scheduled?
-
The position group battles are going to be crazy this year. I feel like less than half the starters on defense are set in stone right now, and beyond Allen and Morse I couldn't name a single definite starter on offense. And this is before the draft. No one is coming to training camp with a job handed to them. That's the biggest difference since McDermott took over.

Put your weird Bills dreams here. I can't be the only one that has those from time to time
Last night I dreamed the Bills drafted a dog that plays defensive tackle in round 1. Walter Football gave the pick an A grade.

good WR or TE who poses a match-up issue for opposing defenses.
Name your man. Which WR or TE is worth taking at 9? I'm not sure any of them are.

You don't reach for a player in the top 10. Draft BPA or trade down. Drafting a low 1st round offensive player at 10 vs drafting a top 10 pass rusher. No brainer.

Trade 9 for Clark and 21. That’s the equivalent point value of pick 35. Throw in a 4th or lower if needed. At 21 you can get Fant or Metcalf or Cody Ford. Boom, problem solved
I love it. Get a stud pass rusher and still have picks in each of the first 3 rounds. If this is doable we should jump on it.
-
We know they were in on Mack. Clark would be an incredible consolation prize. I would think a 1st would be the price but I'd be all for it.
