    Good post.  The obsession with 40 times is comical to me.  He plays faster than his "40 time" and the gauntlet is a much more significant speed test and has to do a lot more with on field game speed.  

     

    Give me anyone of Mitchell, McConkey, Coleman, Franklin, or Polk in round 2 and I will be a happy camper.  Doesn't matter to me if its at 33, on a trade back, or at 60.  Anyone of them this round and I will be thrilled.  And I would take all 5 of them over Worthy, Legette, or Pearsall (I love Pearsall, but he wasn't the right fit for us)

    Mitchell / Franklin would be a dream start to this draft for Buffalo.

  2. I marginally like the decisions last night. Getting a 3rd while still putting yourself in a enviable position (#33) to trade down again. Yes we lose the 5th year option but besides a qb or pass rusher it wouldn't have mattered. Now if we don't land at least Franklin/ Mitchell or both, then the decision last night will be an embarrassment. And if Worthy hits in KC, the gnashing of teeth among the Mafia will go on forever. Alot rides on today and Worthy busting.

    They won the last two Super Bowls.  LOL.  I'm also a little dubious of their ability to scout WR's with spending premium draft picks on Hardman, Moore, and Rice.

    Doc is right. This is the trend people are forgetting.  This whole trade back will depend on whether Worthy pans out or not. Obviously our scouts were less impressed than KC. And I too had my issues with Worthy like size, durability and just a straight line speedster like Ross/Goodwin.  We have 2 second round picks. Maybe we use a 4th & 5th to get another? I guess my biggest fear is if we double dip on wrs, it will be lower tier guys like Wilson, Rice, McCaffrey.....

    he has a lot more faults than Caleb Williams .. who people here think is overrated 

     

    And he doesn't play like he's 6'4 230 lb... He has a lot of talent 

     

    But he has a lot more flaws to correct on game tape than some admit... Including not the smoothest release

    I'm not saying he's going to be a threat the next 2 seasons, but by year 3 and added weapons he could pose a problem.  He's not pasty like Mac.

    I personally think too many in the mock draft community are too high on Thomas. Good player, certainly. But I've said for a bit...but I'm not going to be shocked if he's not WR4 off the board on Thursday. I think he's lower on team draft boards than many would think 

    Let me start by saying I think Leggette would be a worthy candidate to trade up in the 2nd round for. But after watching tape / combine on Thomas & Mitchell,  I have them ranked as late 1st round wrs. Then McConkey followed by Leggette. My top 8 order is.....

    Harrison

    Odunze

    Nabers

    Thomas

    Mitchell 

    McConkey 

    Leggette 

    Worthy.
