This team is one quality WR and quality DE away from me thinking we got better from last season (while getting younger and building up cap space & draft picks in ‘25). Feels like we can/will definitely do one of those things when the post 6/1 money frees up. Can they do both? Or maybe Solomon truly is a Bryce Huff player and Toohill/Jonathan battle it out for DE4, while Solomon is DE5/Designated Pass Rusher.

Intrigued by him as DE5 who’s Gameday Active if he can prove his pass rush ability translates to the NFL. Just rotate him in on passing downs.

Know nothing about Solomon except for draft guys loved him as a Day 3 EDGE

This off-season/draft (so far) is a home run if we still had Diggs in his prime. Im not saying we need Diggs in his prime, but we’re clearly missing one more bigger investment at WR. I somewhat expect us to use the post 6/1 money on another mercenary pass rusher, which if we take a depth corner at some point today, rounds out a really strong roster. But, as you point out, there’s a gaping hole in our WR room. I don’t think we need an Aiyuk, but we need something better than Mack Hollins at WR4.

Why would he want more picks then?

Lol.. what is going on right now on my tv

What a weird draft. Not bad.. just weird. Everything we’re doing makes complete sense. We’ve added 3 potential starters at WR, S and C, along with a rotational DT and RB. Just very business like. Nothing aggressive. No real gambles. Not much boom or bust.. just good players at positions of need, yet nothing that really moves the needle when it comes to Josh trying to slay Mahomes, while fighting off other teams like HOU, NYJ and BAL.

Interesting point made that he’s a Center only. Could be why he’s still available, but would also indicate we took him thinking he can start at C. Similar vibe to Torrence last year.

ESPN guys cheerlead every pick usually, but they’ve been really high on the Bills picks and just waxed poetic about Van Pran. Lots of chatter that he could start this year.

I like it. He’ll make the roster and gives us a true Center as depth.

Yea… a fumble and a massive drop, while taking yourself out every other play certainly means Allen should’ve forced him the ball.

Mack Hollins is our WR4 Weve got people asking “what happens if Cook gets hurt” when we just had Allen throwing to IDGAF Diggs and JAG Sherfield in the Playoffs.

ESPN guys love Ray Davis, fwiw Emphasized his pass catching ability, which is likely a big focus for our offense when it comes to RB’s.

This is the most “meh, ok” draft I can remember in a while. I get what they’re doing. Every pick makes sense. It’s just plugging holes with good players. Good players haven’t been the issue. Was probably a dream to think they would find a way to get better this off-season. Very stagnant roster construction so far, while the Jets (by default), Chiefs, Ravens and Texans all got better.

Hopefully we play the Florida Gators this year.

Who thought it was a good idea to bring out a politician?

Nick Wright is on X bragging about the Chiefs potentially drafting TJ Tampa, so I almost want to take him for the dunk.

Do the Bills view Shakir as an outside WR? Because we have two slot guys and a guy who is outside but excels as a big slot.. plus two good Tight Ends. What are we doing with a tiny slot receiver?

Three conclusions right now (IMO) Beane has a plan we aren’t aware of and will be happy once it plays out Beane is sold on restocking the roster with a bunch of cheap draft picks Beane is trying to move around but failing to make a deal (we heard this was the case with them trying to trade up for Bishop) Really disheartening start to Day 3 so far..

Gross. This is going to be an incredibly frustrating half hour if we don’t trade up.

I could see the Jets taking a QB and WR in this round. They have multiple 4’s.

Im not really worried about a Diggs replacement. I think Kincaid becomes our 1 and then we surround him with a talented WR room of WR2’s with different talents. Im expecting to see a lot of extended handoffs where we get the ball to Coleman, Shakir and Samuel in space .. especially given the way teams sit back in a shell to defend Allen.

Im pretty good if we can get a Gabe Davis clone today on a rookie contract (hopefully with better hands) The Gabe Davis discourse became toxic because it became time to pay him or let him walk.

THIS Get one more quality upside WR and I’m all in on the Packers approach for Allen. Hollins is nice vet depth, but should he put WR5.
