Only because Bishop, VPG and Davis should be good contributors. Absolutely hated the Coleman pick when there were better options.

Beane and McD are like a broken record that skips every time before the song can be finished playing. You hope that the next time you play it again, it might miraculously somehow get the end of the song. This sounds all too familiar to me.
One of these days Josh is going to wake up and throw the damn record against the wall and it will shatter into a million pieces.
This is the day I am hoping for because these two guys "Beane and McD" are nothing but pretenders in this league, and they are undeniably the reason this team has failed to get to Superbowl. It sure as hell is not Josh Allens fault.
The day Josh gets a fresh start with a competent GM and Coach will be a day Josh can breathe a sigh of relief and so will I. IMO.....
I am sick and tired of this " Trust the Process " with these two guys. It getting so old at this point, the process has mold growing on it now.
This is what happens when you have organizational leaders who know 100% their jobs are protected for years. Sean will continue to emphasize D. Beane will continue to de-emphasize speed wrs for Josh. God forbid we give Josh guys like Chase, Waddle etc. Keep settling for slower choir boy captains that fit your mission statement. And with all this said, Josh doesn't have the personality to confront McB.
Rinse....Repeat....

Kind of a long shot unless we keep 4 on the 53. He's not beating out Cook, Davis, or Ty.
He'll make the PS

The #1 priority after losing Diggs/Davis was to take advantage of one of the deepest wr drafts in history. So what do we do? We draft the 4.61 Gauntlet King. No Thomas...no Leggette...no McConkey. We couldn't even be bothered taking a late flier on Walker, Franklin or Rice. It's like "Josh be-damned"....no soup for you. I guess their forever strategy is to keep flailing around with marginal defenses and expect Josh to become God almighty.

Nothing but questions after the first 4. Are you comfortable with this group for a super bowl run?
Cook can't catch a ball to save his life. Who knows if Coleman will have the 4.61 "blazing speed" to separate? Pretty much Josh will have to feed Kincaid, Samuel & Shakir all year.

Hate to say it but I loved the Miami picks in Jaylen Wright and Kamara. Wright can produce a td drive in one run and Kamara solid production.
Hate we let Kamara go to Miami. I guess everyone loves pass rushers with long arms. It hasn't exactly helped Groot.

Bishop, Davis and VPG are the best value picks. I hate the Coleman pick but I'll keep an open mind even if he's unable to get open. This was clearly a transition 1 year rebuild draft. Our odds of sliding into the playoffs are 50/50 but a SB is definitely out of the question. Next off season with Knox & Miller gone, BB will have more leverage to help Josh.
Grade C+

Let's start by getting Von & Dawson contracts out. Drafting only Coleman sends a loud & clear message we're in full rebuild mode. Too bad....thought we had a chance to just reload?

He either has a trade set up post 6/1 or he has an incorrect evaluation of where his WR room currently is.
Or maybe he thinks Coleman and Samuel can just step in and replace Diggs/Davis?
I was convinced he'd double dip wrs in the first 4 rounds.

Great hands and work ethic. Good athleticism. Needs work on route running. Age 20. To me it comes down to coaching up his routes and at his age with his athleticism I think he has to some improvement. It seems inevitable.
Great hands?.... you do realize he had a 55% catch rate during his college career. That doesn't exactly scream good hands?

I do.
It's about ceilings and floors. After taking the ultimate low-floor, high-ceiling QB in Josh Allen, just about every other player the Bills have drafted under beane are high-floor, low-ceiling guys. Low risk. "Speed" players often carry an element of risk that mudders don't.
It's smart if you want to improve your job longevity, but not smart if you want to try and win a championship.
OFC Beane could prove me wrong with some kind of blockbuster trade after the draft, but I ain't holding my breath.
With Kim's situation and this bizarre draft, I just think the organizational focus this year is some kind of reset or rebuild going into the new stadium. This draft and our depleted wr room cannot be expected to keep up with KC. Instead of 2 of the top 15 wrs, I guess the plan was to settle for Coleman. After the top 3, there were like 9 wrs I would take over the gauntlet king.

You misunderstand me. I'm tired of the Bills going all-in on defense. It's long past time to go all-in on offense. When you have the arguably the best QB ever, you need to surround him with offense talent that will deliver in the clutch, instead of gagging it away.
You'd think, but not with these clowns (McB). It's full steam ahead with defensive drafts every year. While we watch our defense wet themselves every playoffs. Adorable....

I expect we'll be in contention for the division, but the offseason moves and our draft is being played face-up. We're in no way trying to win a championship this year. I'm actually ok with that as long as there's a solid medium term vision. That's the part I have concerns about, especially if it includes McDermott, which it almost certainly does. I don't have any faith in our coaching on either side of the ball.
I've never had any game day faith in our coaching. Now after this draft our wr room is embarrassing. Have fun Josh, maybe eventually get in Sean's face.

I'm out...Beane just traded 163 to GB. Nothing more to see here everyone. Kinda disappointed with this draft. Sorry Josh, as usual do it all yourself.

Beane has a real tendency for a certain type of player.
Ray Davis is a Zack Moss clone
Coleman isn't too far off from Kelvin Benjamin and Devin Funchess.
None of those guys panned out.
Seems Beane consistently under values speed in skill players. I was hoping we'd come out of this draft faster and more explosive on O, but instead it's more of the usual.
Coleman would have been a decent replacement for Gabe. Similar skill set. Is Samuel supposed to be the Diggs replacement? Hard to see us being better on offense.
Or defense for that matter. They don't seem to have a vision or plan for getting better than the Chiefs. Feels like a reset year.
This isn't even a reset year. With picking on Kelvin Colman and no other wr, Beane has basically just given up on the wr room.

Great Beane, you let your rival steal Kamara. Are you drunk?

Is Jerry Rice's son any good?
Best wr available. 14th ranked wr. Good hands and obvious pedigree. Ran 4.50 @ 6-2 / 208. Grab Kamara first then Rice.

If you want Kamara the Bills better burn that 6th to move up.

I'm out after the 5th. The rest might as well be udfa.

Broncos are quietly setting up a good draft. Nix & Franklin will be a great combo.

The Bills usually don't like undersized DEs.
Kamara could easily get to 260 which is Jerry Hughes size.

To me, we have 3-6 roster spot potentials left. .
High chance:
WR
CB
Edge
Low-Mid chance:
S
LB
RB (very low imo, after Davis)
If we can land Rice & Kamara we'll be finished. The rest will be PS fodder.

Biggest complaint. Best wr draft in years and we walk away with Coleman. This was the year to double dip.
Yes it was. Pure stupidity or they're going after Aiyuk? Nothing else makes sense? Rice still available but the wise pick will probably be Kamara.

Logic's Buffalo Bills Draft Review -- The more things change, the more they stay the same
in The Stadium Wall
Posted
The process was them getting their foot in the door and landing the job. Once that was accomplished, permanent job security followed. And Pegula with Kim's condition cannot be bothered with analyzing McD's game day flaws. It would take Josh stepping up to voice his concern or fans simply not buying in with the new stadium approaching.
