I understand the grade aspect of it but to me it's not a premium position that Beane has mentioned before. He has said Tackle, DE, QB, WR are of premium position.
Kelley might have some connection here.
I cant find the tweet but Josh Kelley played under Chip Kelly. One of the Bills FO guys worker with Chip Kelly in Philadelphia and so "maybe" some extra information on Josh Kelley?
I wish I could find the tweet.
I have multiple issues with your idea.
1. The cost to move up from 54 into the 1st is going to be very costly in draft capital . Which means the other holes we have won't be filled via the draft this year.
2. Why are we moving up for a safety when it isn't a need whatsoever? Hyde and Poyer are both playing at a high level and both signed beyond this year.
I think that's an excellent idea certainly for this year especially.
Now moving forward I'm not sure id keep it. I think here are some benefits a UDFA would have over being a 8-10 round pick.
1. Sign with a team with a perceived shallow depth chart at their position thus likely increasing the odds of sticking .
Exactly. I don't understand all the fear mongering the media is spreading that GM's apparently have.
These guys dont Zoom during the season to make trades. They pick up their phone to talk or text.
It's not rocket science lol
The only one I can recall that actually worked was the one against Houston. Singletary busted a big catch and run on that play.
But yes I agree, we need to work on the screen game. It's my favorite offensive play to run and when it works it works well.
Agreed. Now is the time to look at their replacements that we can draft, and develop without having to make them a starter right away.
So nice having depth on this roster.
Outside of Simmons, Davis probably has the highest upside of any LB in the draft . Excellent sideline to sideline speed and he's known for hustle on every play.
Evans is a speed and track star at the RB position. D Jeremiah is a big fan of his.
