Y’all are way too down on this roster…
(I say this under the belief we add/trade for another legit WR)
Elite QB
Good OL
Good RB’s
Good TE’s
(TBD) WR Room
Strong DT Rotation
Von-Dependent DE Rotation
Good LB’s
Good CB’s
Solid Vet Safeties + Bishop

Not sure what the path is for him with our Starting Five + Collins, Van Pran, Van Demark and Anderson.

Take a couple corners and call it a day.
Im almost 100% convinced we’re trading for a WR or signing a FA WR at some point, so anyone we draft is competing with Shorter/Hamler etc at WR6.

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

But we pretty clearly are missing a WR on the roster right now. Coleman replaces Davis, Samuel replaces Harty, Hollins replaces Sherfield. There's one glaring replacement still missing. And I'm not saying I expect any rookie WR we add to match Diggs, but objectively there is a gaping hole on the roster there.
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.

I get the feeling that Beane is out of draftable grades.
Why would he want more picks then?- 2

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.

Too bad he didn't throw to Diggs a little more. Maybe he would have led us to Conference championship instead of another Pro-am.
Yea… a fumble and a massive drop, while taking yourself out every other play certainly means Allen should’ve forced him the ball.- 1

did we not draft a WR with our first pick? Any WR you draft here is going to be #4 on the depth chart best case scenario and the #6 or #7 option in the passing game.
I expect they might take a late round flier on a guy, but if they don't there are plenty of FAs available if they decide we need a player there (i don't think we do though.
Mack Hollins is our WR4Weve 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.

I like Cowing a lot but be prepared folks he's a small slot WR.
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.
Did we do enough at wide receiver?

There’s no way any GM worth their salt takes a RB2 in RD4 over WR help because “other needs took precedent”.
He can say whatever he wants.
id be SHOCKED if we don’t sign a FA or trade for a player at some point.
Even if he likes what Shorter and Shavers are showing them behind the scenes, it would be absurd to not draft another WR for competition at WR5 or WR6 given the fact both of them have shown zero in an actual game yet.
We seemed to be actively avoiding WR…
RB2 in RD4. LB6 in RD5. Come on…
