Fits their mold of that guy who can operate in traffic and make contested catches.

So you don't like tight ends being rated high in a draft as they do not impact winning or losing and edge rushers do. OK - fair enough, as I have not done any comparisons against a team that had 2 edge rushers go in the 1st. Would think things like coaching, your QB, and how competitive the conference was would factor in the W/L column too. Maybe too subjective to prove either way.

So...is your point that since IA is great at scouting and getting Tight Ends NFL-ready, that they should be winning more games, or are you upset with the fact that they produced two Tight Ends that went in the first round?

Plenty of decent receivers left no need for folks to panic AJ Brown Hakeem Butler Deebo Whiteside N'Keal Preston Williams Riley Ridley (the slow blinker, but good WR)

Good question. We should ask the Raiders and the Giants

Good value there if someone needed another solid DB....

Oft-injured and aging HOF'er...gotta plan for the future. Dillard is a solid pick for them and can learn by watching one of the best, and fill in if/when Peters gets dinged.

Huh? 150 lb Smurf with a bad foot, goes down quicker than... (I will keep it clean), invisible in big games, with the dreaded concentration lapses... Yeah, I would hate it if someone grabbed him before us.

Fant probably would have driven us nuts. With his freak athleticism he would blow by everyone only to drop that key pass. Remembering how we all felt about Clay dropping a critical pass for us last year how much patience would we have had with Fant who has concentration lapses from time to time?

The kid has talent..especially in that flex receiver role. Mismatch for anyone to cover, glad it was not NE. Now Denver just needs someone who can get the ball to him.

Rumor has it is some really expensive guy who sort of sucked last year.

The spooky way he shakes that magic 8 ball whem making his picks maybe?

Yeah, they mentioned the league is moving away from schemes with a clear-cut WR #1 to spread offensive role players who can get open and CATCH the ball.

The ONLY reason I would trade back in to take Fant would be if i was sure Bellycheck was targeting him, and just to pee in his Cheerios.

I just don't see the divide between the borderline 1st rd WRs and those we can grab in the 2nd meriting trading away picks to make the move IMO. Keep our picks and some decent prospects will fall to us.

Festival of summer lights a few times. Good times, great memories.

He's just the anti-lock brakes for their tank.

Oliver has freakish skills, McDermott will find a way to use him a tad better than Houston managed I think.

I like the pick, but since it was the player i thought they would take all along it was anticlimactic. That was all I was saying. I got myself all worked up for nada.

Matt Patricia knows a thing or two about having a TE that is the whole package. Good for them, and good for us I think down the road that he went to an NFC team we won't have to play a lot.

Pass...there are more well-rounded TE prospects later I think who can catch and can block without trading back into the first.

Kind of meh...been predicting Oliver forever, not sure why I feel let down... Was thinking Beane would blow me away with some kind of pick filled last minute deal. *** Jeez relax guys I like the pick, it was just anticlimactic is all.

It's the usual "f" the Bill's fans move.

Quite right, it is nothing but names penciled in on paper at this point.

Yep...think they could have moved down grabbed more picks and still got their guy. Solid player.
