What does that have to do with Franklin? Obviously teams view them as better prospects. This is a deep WR Draft. It’s how we got Shakir in RD5. Deep draft and teams had questions about how to use him.

Game tape. The guy can play and provides something we still need, which is speed on the outside. Obviously there’s a reason he’s falling, but some of it could also be how deep this WR draft is. Even a team like the Bills, who came into this draft as WR needy as a team can be, has taken one WR. Not every team is going to take a WR in the Draft and now guys like him are relying on teams to start double dipping.

Rousseau would probably be viewed as a good pick by most people. Epenesa took some time, in part due to our staff changing his body, but the way he played last year is - at least - a solid RD2 output for a DE taken late in the round. Edmunds is good, but not elite. Solid pick. Same with Oliver. Very good, not elite. Underwhelming for where he was drafted, but not a miss - and many would view him as a hit. Boogie was a miss and everyone knew it except for our FO apparently. Elam.. I’m still in wait and see mode. Weird situation. I’m willing to see what this year brings as he clearly can play.

Honestly, I’m pretty excited for today with a 4th and four 5ths. Unfortunately with this Draft, it’s basically a 5 round draft. Rounds 6&7 are said to be bereft of talent due to various factors. That being said, Beane has crushed Rounds 4-6 with a ton of good players like Khalil Shakir, Gabe Davis, Taron Johnson, Wyatt Teller, Christian Benford etc., Could definitely see us taking our RB2 and WR4 today, along with another Safety and a Cornerback. Should be able to get 4-5 guys who will make the 53 today.

I just don’t know where the depth goes.. We have our starters. We have Lael Collins pushing to start, but also slots in as backup OG, OT. And we have two guys in the system that the FO likes a lot in Anderson (IOL) and Van Demark (OT) That’s 8 guys right there. Room for one more on the active roster, so another guy could make it as OL9.

I don’t hate Carter at all. He’s not Boogie Basham, imo… he has a quick/sudden/violent push. That alone will be useful in pass rush situations. Not saying you’re comparing them, but I’ve seen that around the board and Boogie was a tweener who had zero explosion. Pick never made any sense.

Franklin, Walker, Baker as WR’s all make sense, along with TJ Tampa at CB and Mo Kamara at EDGE if they drop and/or Bills move up. Will probably take a RB at some point tomorrow.

Sometimes you get lucky…

This is a very strong draft so far. The issue, imo, isn’t the players taken.. they got good players at positions of need.. Its the state of the roster heading into the Draft. Coupled with the fact KC moves Heaven and Earth to make sure Mahomes has a good OL year in / year out and has drafted RD2 WR, RD2 WR, RD1 WR in three consecutive years, plus signed Marquise Brown, while having arguably the best TE to ever play the game. We’re sitting here with some promising talent on offense, but alot of unknowns because of decisions made prior to tonight.

Fair .. but this board also overwhelmingly hated the Boogie Basham pick and wanted Creed Humphrey, DK Metcalf and Trey Smith, to name a few.

Have to think we package picks and make sure we get a WR, RB and CB we like tomorrow.

I actually think this has been a really strong draft. But it’s the same type of draft that has us being really good all year and falling short in the playoffs. Coleman has some boom/bust in him, but Bishop and Carter are just good, maybe really good football players if they hit. We have a lot of good players .. we don’t have difference makers (as of today) outside Josh Allen.

We need another guy, agreed. Either trade up early tomorrow and get a speed guy to be WR4 or see what’s out there after 6/1. He does have a good OL with Kincaid, Knox, Cook, Coleman, Shakir and Samuel. Not nothing.. but agreed.. once again, Defense looks like it’s receiving strong investment, while Offense is .. so far .. just replacing guys with equal or less proven guys.

Bills are a depth Corner and mercenary post 6/1 DE away from having a “no holes” top tier defense. Von, Rousseau, AJE Ed, Jones, Johnson, Carter Milano, Bernard, Morrow, Williams Johnson Benford, Douglas, Elam Bishop, Rapp, Edwards

Wanted Offense, but I get this pick. Sudden with pass rush ability. Our DT room is very legit now with two really good starters backed up by a rotational run stuffer and pass rushing 3T.

You’d think we’d learn our lesson that these guys aren’t touching Mahomes. Hell.. Oliver & Rousseau can’t even get close when it matters.

What is Dorian Williams?

Bengals take the high talent bad character player. I can’t lie .. it makes me jealous.

Sal is on some weird X crusade pouring cold water on anyone who thinks Cole Bishop will start.

Side note… Malik Nabers hates the Giants so much. If anyone is bored, go watch his videos from today. Even what the Giants put out themselves is just completely awkward and hard to watch.

I’ve heard that applies to the 6th and 7th Rounds. Draft is still strong Rounds 1-5.

RGIII can be so corny, but when he’s on, he’s on..

How many picks does Washington have!? Absurd.

If we think we might extend Spencer Brown, there is zero reason for us to be drafting OT’s in RD2.
