I am 100% hoping Bijan falls to us. I just don't think he does. If he doesn't, our RB corps is already pretty seriously upgraded from last season.

Thanks Gunner... but I just won't even read this cause we aren't drafting a QB. Wide Receivers next, please!

Is this thread about Josh Allen or Jim Kelly? Why are people talking about the 2 in the same light? Are you guys implying that Josh cheated on Brittany the way Kelly did on his wife? Has there been any further news about them actually breaking up?

I know this is minor (to us), but did the Josh & Brittany breakup actually happen? I know there was a thread about it, but I thought within it people were still talking about how it was all speculation. Regardless, if they did break up, that adds just one more thing for last season being incredibly difficult for Josh considering a long term relationship doesn't just end in the snap of a finger.

Zay Flowers? Do you have a separate grade for Bills specific players? I appreciate that Joe Marino, for example, comes out with a separate Bills ranking. And while I could see the push back against something like that, I think scheme/culture fit needs to be a consideration.

Thanks Gunner. I genuinely appreciate the response. I think you generally captured what I was trying to say in the 2nd to last paragraph at towards the end. Since you have your scouting background, can you give us your favorite 1 or 2 WRs by round that you'd like to see in the draft? Right now it seems like most have JSN as in a league of his own in this draft but still relatively within reach with a trade up. Do you agree? Would you do it?

Well... I think the discrepancy here is that you're assuming that the Bills will/should be targeting a WR with size

I changed the title. I don't think many of you got my point. There are 14 WRs ranked in the top 100 (Brugler). I think some of you are bizarrely of the belief that it's 1st round WR or bust because no one else will be worthwhile. I think that's misguided I disagree

Yes. But strong with those 2nd to mid round talents. Do people think we only have 1 draft choice this year or something?

Holy crap... I'm trying to say the opposite. There are soooo many good slot WRs in this draft Buffalo can afford to wait. Didn't I say that?

First of all, has anyone listened to Beane and McDermott talk about Gabe Davis? They freaking love the guy. I don't think our efforts to add to WR this offseason have been/will be about replacing Gabe Davis so much as getting him back to what he does best. I think Davis is a good starting WR, just not great. But Cincinnati, Philadelphia and Miami are the exceptions, not the rule when it comes to 1-2 punches at WR. What Josh Allen really thrives with is an Elite slot WR, as we learned with Beas. What's this draft full of? Potentially good to great slot WRs. I looked at Dane Brugler's "The Beast" over at The Athletic and the VAAAASSSST majority of the top 14 WRs are slot WRs. And all 14 of those are in his top 100 And also, Brugler has 15 WRs in his top 100. From JSN to Jordan Addison to Zay Flowers to Josh Downs to A.T Perry to Tank Dell... this draft is STACKED with WRs who project to the slot. It really makes me think this might be a repeat of last year and 2020 when we knew WR was a need but we waited to draft one til the mid to late rounds. That said... I would friggin LOVE JSN on this team!

LB isn't a big money position?

DT. We need it. We're screwed after this season.

Lock it!!!

Too much money

It's going to keep going up.

Re Spencer Brown:

Jack Campbell Marvin Mims

See this is kinda the reason I'm wondering if Campbell will be the guy we target. McDermott was the Panthers DC when Kuechly was drafted and for his first 5 years in the league. As for the desire for Sanders because of his pass rushing ability, was Kuechly a great pass rusher? Campbell seems like more of a true old school well-rounded MLB with good run stopping and coverage ability and great instincts. Sanders sounds more raw. I just think as McDermott's 1st year calling the defense, he'd look at a Kuechly-like MLB with googly eyes. We already have our pass rushing/blitzing LB in Milano.

Why is this thread still going?

We all know the hole to fill. Yes it's possible the Edmunds replacement is on our roster, but c'mon... who really doesn't think we're adding an ILB???? Jack Campbell has been the buzz since the Combine. Yet, The Athletic just came out with their top 100. Here's what they said about him: Campbell has excellent size to take on blocks in the box, and he’s more than willing to do so. An effective communicator pre-snap, Campbell plays with good awareness to discern play concepts and effectively play the run. He flashes the ability to stack and shed climbing offensive linemen while being a sound tackler. But he will let the game come to him at times instead of being the aggressor. He is a good athlete, but it doesn’t always show because he plays in a controlled manner — there are times you wish he used his gifts more. Campbell’s awareness does carry over against the pass. He is at his best in zone, where he can read the game, make plays on the ball and get into passing lanes. He’s also a fluid enough mover to hold his own in man. Campbell has the size and athleticism to quickly adjust to the NFL. He doesn’t always play to his testing numbers, but if he becomes more comfortable, he has the ideal traits and play style to be a three-down linebacker. I don't know about anyone else, but there were many parts of that report that absolutely screamed Buffalo. It'd be amazing if we got him in the 2nd, but wouldn't be shocked if we took him in the 1st.

Pretty awesome. Love the dude. Position is set for this year. That said, our DT position is pretty screwed starting in 2024 with absolutely no one currently under contract beyond this season.

I'm at the point I'm excited regardless whether we get him or not. If we get him... yay!!! If we don't... trade for Jeudy??? trade for Hunter Renfrow???? Trade up for JSN??? WR in the 1st???? It's obvious Beane is still trying to upgrade the WR room... That's exciting, isn't it?

This is getting ridiculous. So much smoke. Where's the fire?

Watch this turn into a fiasco similar to what's going on with Rodgers
