Gotcha. I thought the same. It’s just kind of surprising to me that after all these years they made a trade for Diggs which in hindsight wasn’t as good as it should have been(should have selected Jefferson) and failed to identity a guy they liked and went out and drafted. The fact they traded back and scooped up Coleman didn’t really inspire confidence in that pick.

So sounds like they should have traded up for Brian Thomas last year or at least drafted Mcconkey who is actually good. Would you rather have Coleman, Carter or Brian Thomas? The part that Beane is missing in all of this as he has failed to identify WRs in the draft since he has arrived. If Coleman flames out and he is the only Wr drafted in the top 3 rounds during Beane’s tenure then that is crazy.

But that’s been their go to statement since 2019. For some reason they tend to punt on WR. When is enough going to be enough? Even with Coleman they traded down for Christ sakes lol. It wasn’t like they identified and went and got their guy. And in that class I wanted Mcconkey who also already looks ahead of Coleman.

People saying we cannot criticize are ridiculous IMO. In truth we haven't won anything yet. Yes they have been exciting to watch and a good team but they have fallen short every time of reaching their goals. The 90s team did as well and they deserved criticism as well. Probably most deservingly on Marv Levy.

Agreed for some reason they just cannot scout the position hence the trade for Diggs in the first place.

Jeremy and Joe handled this well. I get Brandon might be annoyed by all the WR talk but it's justified IMO. The QB is set, the o-line is set, the RB are set, the TE are set. The only question marks come at the WR position. We lost 2 of our better WR not named Shakir from last year. We hope Coleman takes another step, we hope, Palmer takes another step, we hope Samuels takes another step. The position is a huge question mark and maybe it works out but it's clearly average at best to below average talent. I was very happy that they took the direction of going heavy on the defensive side and the defense is clearly a problem but I still was hoping for WR picked within their first 3 or 4 picks. Now we have Elijah Moore coming in for a visit which is nice so I don't get the freak out by Beane. If we are being real Beane has done a ***** job addressing WR over his stay. He has performed poorly when targeting and going and getting their WR that they liked. They screwed up last year by not going up and grabbing Brian Thomas, in 2023 they screwed up and didn't trade up and get their guy. There were multiple guys there that would have worked out but Addison was the guy I liked the most. 2022 they could have had Pickens or Watson and picked Elam a huge bust. In 2020 I really liked Justin Jefferson and low and behold he fell right where the Bills would have been picking. I know people will say trading for Diggs was the right move and it did work out to an extent but I have been firmly in the camp especially when Josh was younger to just drafting young WRs that Josh could grow with. It's always pissed me off listening to Beane be like well we don't draft high enough to get a player like Chase but they literally traded out of the Justin Jefferson pick and have been a few slots away from countless others. IMO Beane has been a massive failure in terms of building this WR room. That said maybe we win the Super Bowl regardless. Also I'll add so people know I would have stayed put in the second round and went Darius Alexander and Jaylin Noel or Kyle Williams. Tai Felton as another guy I thought maybe they could trade back into the end of the third and grab. Jalen Royals went in the fourth and Tory Horton went in the fifth. I don't get Beane saying there weren't any WRs with good grades available anywhere in the draft.

Yea but Qbs are way harder to judge. Also why not take multiple swings instead of putting all your eggs in one basket

Awful trade. Maybe an ok player but why trade up. So many players still available. I don’t get it

Would like Harmon to fall to us but isn’t shaping up great. I do not like the safety’s or most of the corners except for Amos. Amos doesn’t seem like he is going to start right away over White though so Hoping they can get a DT or DE

I was listening to this one NFL mock draft podcast yesterday and it had them taking Emmanwori round 1 and Morrison round 2. No DE in the top 5 rounds. Only 1 DT taken. They picked an IOL high as well. Just completely head scratching and infuriating to listen to. Yea that would be awful. Guessing if something like this played out it would be them taking a DE, WR, and a safety or LB.

I agree I like Phillips but that would be my second DT. The Bills need one top end DT and then another within the first 4 picks. Anything else is a failure in this draft class. My ideal situation is a trade back in round 1 or 2 and getting extra picks in the top 100 to load up on the line, CB, and WR.

Me, just did a stock mock draft, no trades. 30.Harmon DT 56. Landon Jackson DE 62. Jayden Higgins WR 109. Jacob Parrish CB 132. CJ West DT 169. Jeffrey Bassa LB 170. Cobee Bryant CB 173. Jarquez Hunter RB 177. RJ Mickens S 206.Isaac Teslaa WR

These mock draft simulators are like crack. Have been playing around with a few of them. It's nice doing different simulators since they have different ratings on players. Some of these mocks seem a little unrealistic especially with trade down scenarios where I've been getting Grant or Harmon in the low 30s like this one. All I know is I really want the Bills to somehow get 2 solid DT, at least 1 good edge maybe 2, double up on CBs, and then try to get WR, LB, IOL, TE, S also somewhere in there. 37.Harmon DL 56.Tyleik Williams DL 62.Landon Jackson Edge 68. JT Tuimoloau Edge 109. Jacob Parrish CB 120.Denzel Burke CB 140.Barrett Carter LB 163. Tai Felton WR 169. Cobee Bryant CB 170. Jeffrey Bassa LB 173. Seth McLaughlin IOL 177. Jaydon Blue RD 178. Jaylen Reed S 206. Isaac TeSlaa WR 215. Orone Gadsden TE 39. Kenneth Grant DL 56. Landon Jackson Edge 62. Darius Alexander DL 99. Dorian Strong CB 109. TJ Sanders DL 116. Tuten RB 132. Jack Sawyer Edge 135. Quincy Riley CB 169. Sebastian Castro S 170. Isaiah Bond WR 173. Jamon Dumas LB 177. Dillon Gabriel QB

If Cook is going to be a headache or holdout for a huge contract I’m more than ok with trading him. Enjoy watching him play but he is not a top 5 RB.
