    Will DeAndre Hopkins be available this offseason?

    So you favor a VERY expensive WR who will be 31 next year over every player in this draft? A young guy who will be here 4-5 years on the (relative) cheap? They may have a handful of guys they LOVE, but don’t expect them to fall to them. I’m all for a player of Hopkin’s ability and what he could do for us. I just think this is one of those games of chicken and we’ll have to wait and see. 

    The condition is obviously they eat a portion of his salary. But hell yes I'm taking the sure thing.

    Today is not the day to make a trade, since you have no idea who might fall to you. We might have a bunch of Bills fans staying up late to see……the Bills not making a pick. I think most would be okay with that if it came to be. 

    Disagree. Get it done and you still do what you do draft wise. Getting Hopkins moves the needle in our favor.... significantly.

    I had a dream the other night that the Bills traded up several spots for Hyatt - with several other top receivers on the board still - in part because they were worried the Chiefs were targeting him.

     

    Take that for what it’s worth.

    Nobody's ever called me a visionary personality, but you just may become a modern day Nostradammit 😆

    DHopkins would cost a 2nd round pick...would you do it?

    And Allen running for his life because we neglected the OL again.

    But where in this draft is it guaranteed to improve on that in any round?.....Sorry but no worthy tackles left at 27......interior at 27?..... Nope no impact guys at that position either..... After that maybe just maybe offensive lineman are someone close to being best player available.... The value simply isn't lining up it where we pick this year on the offensive line.

    The Bills First Round Selection (#27) will be offense. And from among these five players.

    Get ready for it to be a Center/Guard or RT/Guard prospect at #27. The board will riot. 

     

    My preference is Darnell Washington because he has the highest ceiling in terms of potentially being one of those cheat code type weapons on offense.

    Not a sexy pick but I'm in if it helps protect Josh.

    Tilt your head to the side. Much less disgusting experience. 

    Torrence or Avila, along with McGovern will greatly improve the Bills line.  I am lately pretty stuck on the idea that redzone performance improvement is the primary thing the Bills need on offense, because I think the Bills already have shown to be the dominant offense between the 20's.   Torrence or Avila would help improve Red Zone performance.  The Bills really don't need "field stretchers" or "chain movers".  We are already punt fewer than any team in the NFL.  The Bills do have room for improvment in the redzone, and will benefit from better protection of Allen.  Olinemen at any position should help with both fo those things. 

    What about Washington as a extra right tackle/weapon? Drafting him will kind of improve two positions if you will.

    It doesn't make any sense for the Bills to draft a better prospect than Dawson Knox when they just locked Knox up for years to come at elite TE pay.

    Sure it does. You'd have a deadly two tight end set for 3 to 4 years and then when Knox contract is up that guy would be ready to come into his own and be the main man. Depending on the guy, you also have the ability to flex him all over. Kincaid=young Jimmy Graham.

    I like your premise but it’s flawed because Flowers and Wright would be ahead of both Mayer and Kincaid based on talent and a more glaring need. I do like all 5 of those players though and even if I don’t think Washington is worth a top 30 selection, I would be happy with any of those 5 players being our first pick. 
     

    but hopefully Flowers and Wright are off the board if one of the TEs are selected 

    I think Wright and Flowers aren't even first rounders in most years. The three TEs are all legit, although with Washington it is more with the upside.

    I love the idea of Hopkins and one of the top TEs. The question of how to pay for the enormous amount of cap Diggs and Hopkins would be taking is not a nugatory consideration however and I personally don't see how it happens unless somehow the cap cost on Hopkins is reduced more than seems possible.

    Were it to happen it would definitely be something extremely slick to pull off, no doubt.

    I'm hoping the scenario is along the lines of what you're thinking.  If possible get Addison, if he makes it into the 20s, maybe what a 3rd would cost for the move up.  If not spend the third on DHop.

     

    And while I don't think it is reasonable to go DHop and 1st round WR.  There could be a small chance the FO could go DHop and one of those good TEs.  That would be a great haul.

    This right here! So many ways to attack, control the clock, and score more points! I would absolutely love that scenario playing out. Hopkins and one of the top TEs??? Sign me up!

    AJ Klein Expected to Sign with Bills

    Come on man.  AJ Klein has talent.  You don't play a decade in the NFL if you don't have a decent amount of talent.  Is he a physical freak?  Of course not.  But he understands playing defense and where he is supposed to be on the field.  And he can hit you.  He will be in the mix for playing time at LB.  Our defense doesn't need to be great.  It just needs to be good.  We need to draft offense.  We need more weapons for Josh Allen.  Draft a WR, OT and TE in the first 3 rounds.  And our offense can be top 3 in the NFL with Josh Allen.  Sprinkle in a little more grit and savvy on defense, and we will be tough to beat.  Klein brings us that.  A healthy Poyer and Hyde brings us that.  Taylor Rapp brings us that.  Edmunds did not.  Frazier did not.  Beane just needs to hit on some big time guys on the offensive side of the ball.  Because he certainly can not draft D Lineman to save his life.  

    Some of the best said stuff in quite some time. I concur.

    I had started a thread a while back, saying that I had wish they would bring klien back

    Especially because they didn’t go after any veteran linebackers in free agency

     

    You can’t use him the same way you did Edmonds, but that doesn’t mean this is not a good player. Having a veteran presents on the team that actually won’t look horrible is a good idea because we don’t know what’s gonna happen in the draft.

     

    The only linebacker I really want out of the draft is Captain Jack and whenever you only have one player that you think fits the bill, you have to cover yourself because there’s no guarantee that you get that player we don’t even know if the bills want that player

    More very well said stuff. Today has been some good reads.👍

    With their first pick of the draft WR makes the most sense for the Bills.

    But the chance of "value" at OT is much lower than WR at pick 27 imo, and in most scouts opinions as well. 

    The running backs sure aren't unhappy with Brown, I promise you that. If he cleans up his technique in pass pro and has a full off-season to train properly watch out.

    Oh the second response was in regards to Herb Nightly. I'm with you on Brown.

    I will be extremely disappointed if the Bills draft a WR before an OT since OT, not WR, is our biggest need and there are no MLB's worth the 27th pick.

    Another plea, can we PLEASE stop saying that the Bills should take a particular position?!? IT ALL DEPENDS ON THE PLAYERS AVAILABLE AT THAT POSITION!! Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk
