This team goes as far as Allen takes us. For him to do that we need to continue to give him weapons. A stud RB at 54 is my choice

Hea not as heavy as his listed combine weight. Cole Kmet apparently said that Claypool was drinking gallon after gallon of water before his way in. I've studied him enough that hes better suited as a WR. If a team tries to make him a TE he has a very long way to go in many ways.

His kids are home. I suspect they pick up the slack.

Well?

I saw a tweet earlier that said they spoke to Shefter and Shefter said Odell isnt getting traded

Probably because his own fans boo him

We probably have to trade up from 54. Are you prepared to pay that price?

I've somewhat discounted the WR visits for exactly what you said about Diggs. Looking closely at the other numbers are very interesting.

In order of preference 1. Dobbins 2. Swift 3. Taylor 4. Akers 5. CEH 6. Dillon 7. Moss After that I get way less interested. The first 3 absolutely would become our #1 RB immediately. #4, 5 could surpass Singletary by the end of the year #6 and 7 are outstanding backups for us.

Fair enough. I appreciate the discussion!

A few things. 1. Cost is usually astronomical. 2. Many draft analysts say that after top 20, that 21 -60 are very interchangeable. 3. The uncertainty of the entire draft process could complicate matters. I dont blame Beane. Sit back, watch the draft unfold and grab the guy you want that falls at a cheaper price.

Fair enough. I've heard many that love Akers. I do to. Hes my #4. So for those that discount Dobbins lack of combine numbers. Check this out. OSU do their own freshman combine. Take a look at Dobbins numbers. They are spectacular. (Sorry it's my own tweets here. Not intentional in any way) (For those that dont want to click on link or zoom in on the chart)

I'll say there is a zero percent chance Dobbins is there in the 3rd. Hes highly thought of by many. Now I do see positive arguments for both sides to wait on drafting an RB. The depth at that position is solid so waiting on that position does make sense. But on the other side; Someone made a great point on twitter. If the Bills go RB at 54 they could conceivably get the #1 RB rated on their board in round 2. Beane has also mentioned multiple times about needing the offence to take a step. Why not grab a guy who's an upgrade over Singletary and could really elevate this offence and help Allen? We all want Allen to take another step and if Dobbins helps to do that it's a smart choice. I have Dobbins my #1 RB and I love the fact we "might" be able to nab him in round 2. There are many RB needy teams though just before us in that range so if I had to guess he won't be there but I'dove to pick him. More stuff on Dobbins:

Ahhhhhh.. Draft time craziness. Where EVERYONE has or is a source.

It's pretty obvious that we are heading into the draft hoping to take someone and the fall back is a FA. We aren't starting the season with Singletary , Yeldon and T Jones at running back .

You lost me at Stephen A.

JK Dobbins Why? Hes the best all around RB in the draft with the highest floor. He would instantly become our #1 RB. Hes fantastic in the passing game and to me one of the best pass protecting RB available in the draft. Hes extremely elusive as well as durable. He also had one of the best fumble ratings as well. Best part? We can get him early mid 2nd and not have to move up close to 1 for Swift or Taylor. Kid is a stud

He will be a 7th or UDFA probably. Another kick at the can at making an upgrade at backup.

Here

Well...

Anyone know what the 7 white dots indicate on the blue C? Or is it just random? The state in the C is pretty cool though
