I think it’s because he is slow and not scheme versatile. I like him, but I can understand why some teams don’t.

I actually like what the Giants are doin. Nabers, Nubin, I love Andru Phillips. Theo Johnson probably going to be a better pro than he was college player.

Just because people want Franklin and Baker, doesn’t mean Beane does.

I don’t think those guys are out there. Unless they are these 30 million dollar guys, I think a young guy, with upside, who is cheap and buried makes sense on some level if you like him more than what is on the board.

I’m also still on the trade a late pick to Carolina for Terrance Marshall, Jr. train. Carolina only has 4 picks today and Marshall played for Brady back at LSU and in Carolina and is trapped down the depth chart there. He was buried before they drafted Leggette. Still just 23, big, fast, and hungry.

I put this on the other thread: Likely an IOL like Mason McCormick or Beau Limmer WR Tez Walker or Ryan Flournoy or Franklin or Baker DB: MJ Devonshire or Quantez Stiggers or TJ Tampa maybe Hicks and doubel down on safety Edge: Austin Booker or Javon Solomon or Braiden McGregor or Xavier Thomas DT: Kristian Boyd LB: Jeremiah Trotter Jr Punter: Tory Taylor or Ryan Rekhow or Matthew Hayball (lefty) Probably a RB

Bishop gonna take 8 after Martin gets cut when we get our new punter. The zero looks cool on a slapped up dude like Coleman.

I do like Bartolini. But the center that Carter is absolutely abusing in those senior bowl clips is Bartolini and I have a hard time unseeing it! I like Limmer a lot and the McCormick kid. All three of those dudes have RAS traits that play as Kromer guys. Deep sleeper for me is Nick Gargiulo.

You know I think on some level Coleman was looked at negatively on here by majority. I think some people maybe just fell in love with their guy and Coleman wasn’t it. I know there were a few guys on the Coleman train. The Franklin stuff is silly because he is still on the board. The Leggette and Worthy stuff is also silly becuase I think it’s obvious the Bills did not want those guys. I also think it is pretty likley that the Patriots would have taken Coleman at 34 if the Bills passed. I was on the Thomas/Mitchell train but I like a lot of what Franklin etc brought to the table. I wanted Mitchell but still like Coleman. My initial feelings were similar in the Josh-Josh debate. I liked both guys, liked the wrong one a little more. Obviously like a lot of people I was wrong. Time will tell, but Coleman makes a ton of sense on a lot of different levels. He is in some ways the Josh Allen of WR. Rawness in his game, but massive, massive upside if he can put it all together. I’ll take a shot on a guy like that any day. What I do like is that they made this pick with clear heads after thinking it over for 24 hours or whatever. I am excited for Coleman to bring a dimension of offensive playmaking ability here that we have not really seen in quite some time.

@GunnerBill what do you think about doubling down with Hicks? You have to young guys who I think could be your tandem group for the next 4 years. I feel like their game has some crossover, but they can certainly play together in my mind.

Great point. Being a two sport athlete would contribute to some of the rawness in his game as his time was split for so long. Now he will get the highest level of coaching and if he refines his game he is going to be a problem. If you want an ideal piece of clay, this guy is it.

I hope he picks #0. That would be cool.

52 for Kiper

The should definitely use one of those picks tomorrow on Taylor the punter from Iowa.

definitely risk reward but i would like it. If he makes it, it could be quite impactful. I also like Issac and Braiden McGregor.

95 feels like classic Beane running back spot. Would be cool to get Franklin or Walker. The McCromick guy is interesting. TJ Tampa is a good scheme fit.

He looked like he was in “James Cook high as a kite” mode. He probably partied all night got off a long flight. It is fun to see the Giants fans freaking out though!

Love hicks. This feels early though

I think DL then safety makes sense.

Rappaport said he ran 4.53 at his pro day. That’s fine.

Very athletic, long arms, has burst. He’s raw, but interesting.

I guess it's a generalization, but it seems like there are a bunch of people upset. I just think it's funny that we are always wrong! I think we will be fine.

The risks on Mitchell aren't really crazy risks in round 2. I know it's only 1 pick back, but it makes a difference in these people's minds. Mitchell is what I would do, but kind of think they will take Franklin or DeJean. I do not have a problem with going Newton or DeJean and then trying to move 60 around. to get a receiver.

For so many years people complained that Buddy Nix/Whaley never traded back and everyone wanted us to be like New England and trade back until you find value and stockpile picks. Beane is doing it and everyone seems upset. I liked but did not love Worthy. The majority of Bills fans thought he was a small, one trick pony who would get pushed around...but now that he was drafted by the Chiefs he is Tyreek Hill. If we took Worthy at 28 there would still be a ton of people complaining. The trading with KC thing is a little annoying, but at the end of the day, not taking the deal does not prevent KC from getting their guy. I think you have to be open to dealing with ALL teams, no matter who they are. If KC would have traded up for Ricky Pearsall people who have said the Chiefs were playing 3D chess and we were playing checkers. If we took Pearsall there would be rioting in the streets. The 5th year option stuff is mostly inconsequential to me. If the player is good by year 3 they get extended anyway. The 5th year option can be a detriment at times, especially later in the round and especially if you are picking someone you do not have a first round grade on. Beane is collecting ammunition to move around the board tonight and if he doesn't believe in the players that were there then trading back makes 100% sense. Whoever he takes tonight, people will complain. If he takes Franklin it's gonna be "well he could have had Pearsalll or Worthy or Mitchell or Coleman." If he takes Mitchell it's gonna be "well he has diabetes and they should have just taking Worthy to Franklin or whatever." I guess my point is, people will likely not be happy with whatever happens tonight, but I believe that Beane is doing the right thing here. I hope he picks the right players. I know its hard not to get emotional, but I just feel like it's a pointless venture. Let's wait and see.
