    Any idea who are the best cbs available in free agency outside of Gilmore?

    It may be utterly irrational, but I just hate the idea of using #10 on a cb.

    Elite safety, somehow I'm okay with, but I have a feeling Hooker and Adams by both be gone.

     

    And yes, I still would prefer a qb or wr (Williams or Davis,) but I suspect we go D.

     

    716 and Blokes, have you chatted with MajorBobby about qb? He is high on Mahomes.

    I tried to talk about air raid and bad mechanics, but he thought it was mostly an air raid bias.

    I don't really know. I like Watson and he seems third choice among a lot of experts.

     

    Sorry this post is meandering all over the place.

    Top corners outside Gilmore would be AJ Bouye from Houston.. but he looks like he's gonna get a big payday

     

    Also Logan Ryan from Patriots

     

    Morris Claiborne from Dallas

     

    And Prince amukamara

     

    And I have not talked Mahomes with major Bobby or anybody on these boards yet

     

    I would say the strictest focus points should be his gimmicky offense

     

    - never taken a snap under center

     

    -Already displays atrocious footwork from the gun

     

    -has 2 DISTINCT throwing motions

     

    - turns his back on pressure a lot

     

    - throws all arm, horrible base

     

    He has a few years of learning at the NFL level atleast before he should even play

    He was 5'11" at the Combine. I don't think teams are legally bound to list players correctly.

    With ya blokes

     

    Bills can list him at whatever they want

     

    He was a small 5'11 180LBs at the combine with short arms

     

    Not a guy that's readily built for the boundary

    Bills draft plans

    Let CB walk - Draft CB

    Let Cut DE - Draft DE

    Cut - RB draft RB

    Cut QB - draft QB

    Bills drafting = forever treading water and filling self inflicted holes.

    Thats why we're the Bills!

     

    If we did the opposite we'd be the Patriots!

    Overall as in he doesn't get turnovers? He a great tackler/cerebral/run stopper. But he doesn't get turn overs. I would take Hooker every day of the week over Adams just for the simple fact that he has a trait that can't be taught. Ball hawking deep safeties are a LOT harder to come by than run stopping in the box safeties. And Hooker is actually the best Safety since Berry, not Adams.

    It's definitely what you want out of a player

     

    I want hooker more

     

    But i even realize he isn't as polished as Adams and that's a fact

     

    Adams is a better complete prospect while hooker has more range and ball Hawking and a higher ceiling

     

    You can find a center fielder like Jairus Byrd in the second round as well

     

    Adams ball skills are good just not elite

     

    And everything else is top notch

    Oh, I'm not disagreeing, just saying that wasn't the mindset even just a few years ago.

    I understood where you were going and it's crazy that GMs would let that dictate their board 5-10 years ago

     

    If you can get an all pro you grab them

     

    I hope 9 GMs ahead of us think a safety isn't worth a top selection

    My how times have changed! I don't remember when safeties were valued so high and a terrific CB could come after two satires in the top 10. The DB class is so deep, we may hold off, but then maybe not.

    It's very very tough to say let's take Jamal Adams over over a very good young corner in Lattimore

     

    But Adams can straight dictate games

     

    He is built perfectly and can run very well

     

    His leadership skills are off the charts as well as his field awareness

     

    He is the best all around prospect since Eric berry probably

     

    That's hard to pass up

    This is the deepest CB class in a long long time

     

    Our Bills have a glaring need at CB and at Safety

     

    I feel if we go the Defensive back route I think our best option if Hooker and Adams are gone is Marshon Lattimore CB out of Ohio State

     

    He is tall, long and very fast

     

    He is not afraid of any WR and lines up right under their chin

     

    He has very good hands at the LOS and can re route receivers early

     

    Fluid hips to turn and run with recievers on the 9 route yet agile enough to fluidly rotate back on the comeback

     

    He's got the perfect temperament for a #1 corner and would excel in McDermotts cover 3

    Cover 3 Defense

    in MCD's D we need 80% coverage 15% run 5% pressure qb. It was rare that Davis crossed the los.

    Alonso would be good in this role. Was he cut? I don't remember? If we got Alonso as insurance depth, z brown back, aj Klein and Ragland with p brown we would have a lot of depth but not one true all star to pin threat hopes in. Bradham would have been nice at slb, fwiw. Maybe better than Ragland. I don't see anyone I want at mlb other than Klein and that's not certain.

    Completely agree that Bradham would've been a GREAT SAM Backer in this system

     

    Hes not a 34 guy but was coming into his own In an attacking 43

    Strictly from an X's and O's standpoint and a technical standpoint he isn't ready to play the 1 or 2 CB spot yet

     

    Especially for a coach that goes cover 3 plenty

     

    He struggles with finding the ball in the air and isn't exactly tall and long

     

    He also struggles with his press

     

    I like the kids promise but wouldn't feel comfortable with him as a starter

    Nothing wrong with starting threads to get discussions going 716 ,but when you go overboard its not very fair to all the discussions already started and getting pushed back IMO.

     

    Posters read the News and see most online articles so every story doesn't need a thread attatched to it when you have 10 threads you could post it under. Why make mods merge threads?

     

    Do it yourself...

    I hear ya bud

     

    This place is starting to feel a bit more like home with all our friends finding their way over here

     

    Glad you made it

    If I recall, Rex more often than not had Washington taking on blockers. Thus, taking one of the best penetrating DTS in college college football and not utilizing him correctly at all.

    I think mcdermott can develop Washington.

    you are absolutely correct

     

    Rex wasted his talents

    We can blame the mods all we want but the posters are what really messed that board up.

     

    If you didn't agree with the loud mouthed jackasses you were ignored, called a troll and insulted on a regular basis. If you tried to stay positive and up-beat about the team, coaching staff and management you were accused of drinking the Koolade. And over the past few months those same jackasses would start the same threads over and over and over.

     

    I can't even tell you how many Taylor threads were started.

     

    In all honesty I think the mods just gave up knowing the board was coming to an end. Seriously to keep that **** show under control would have been a full time job for at the very least two mods.

     

    Here's to hoping the doom and gloom, know-it-all jackasses don't follow everyone here.

     

    I agree,

     

    One poster was averaging between 30 to 40 threads a week. He wasn't just eating the QB, he was eating up the board. Standingbuffalo/admin couldn' t do anything about it because the guy wasn't breaking any rules.

     

    I'm not naming names because its is a new beginning for everyone...

    [/quot]

     

    I've always been a thread starter because I like to start conversations and I probably had thousands over the years

     

    If I did start 2-3-4 in a day I would spread them out over 4 hours a piece to not spam

     

    My boy Bruce did 5 at once :)

     

    Miss him tho
