Of the serious SB Contenders who had the best draft?
Ethan in Cleveland replied to Big Blitz's topic in The Stadium Wall
Ravens had best draft but the Chargers are the team to beat to get to the Superbowl. Good thing they are in AFC West and probably win the division with 10 games. Bills can go 12-4 and host AFC Championship. Ravens, Browns, and Bengals will slug it out in the central too. Colts might run away with the South but I'm not convinced Ryan is still any good and he has always choked in the biggest moments. Agree 100%. If they can get through the first month with a rookie and Jackson or a yet to sign FA at CB they will win 12 games easy. Need White at full strength for the playoffs not for September -
Rd 3, Pick 89 (25): LB Terrell Bernard, Baylor
Ethan in Cleveland replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall
The team is far from stacked at the OL. But its time to move on. Hopefully this kid can be the AJ Klein role on the cheap this year. Edmunds never leaves the field. I rag on him all the time, but the dude is durable and plays in every defensive alignment. He even lines up outside three or four snaps a game. -
Poll: How would you grade the Bills overall draft?
Ethan in Cleveland replied to Lost's topic in The Stadium Wall
This was encouraging to read. I think it reflects the players drafted and not necessarily the fact the OL was not addressed and WR not addressed until the 5th round. Reuter seems to like the 3rd round LB. Hopefully he is a playmaker. We play so much nickel and if Milano gets hurt this kid will need to step up. And as others have said, when they play big nickel he should be better than Neal or the other backup safeties. -

I chose B-. They got a starting corner to pair with Tre for several years. Well done even if it cost a 4th round pick. Cook adds a skill set the current RBs do not have. WR was addressed late with a guy that may be a steal. Hated the 3rd round pick. The 6'8" stiff should be comical to watch in camp. Tenuta may be first draft pick to get cut after OTAs. Impressive to draft someone with less skills than Doyle. -
I dont think so. This was the weakest QB class in decades.

NFL Draft 2022 Fourth to Seventh Round Discussion Thread
Ethan in Cleveland replied to UKBillFan's topic in The Stadium Wall
You guys are focusing on the wrong team. The Chargers are the Bills biggest obstacle -
Rd 6 pick 185 (6): CB Christian Benford, Villanova
Ethan in Cleveland replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall
PS guy that doesn't have the speed for the NFL at CB. Has size though. Maybe convert to safety??? -
I agree with every point you made. Honeslty thought we should have done more no huddle last year too. Josh is great in no-huddle. Im expecting a huge year from Knox even if that means a few less catches for Diggs.

Just get a punter and trade the rest of the picks away -
Rd 5, Pick 148 (5): WR Khalil Shakir, Boise St

Agree! Now let's get them in camp and on the field. Draft status means nothing now -
Do the Bills have the best offense in the league?
Ethan in Cleveland replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall
Dude I'm positive all the time. I just dont see everything the team or Beane does as great. Every GM has misses and he is no different. He signed a player that quit during the game!! He wasted second round picks on Ford and Epenesa. Those are huge misses. But he got Knox, Davis, Bass too!. I'm consistent or at least I try to be consistent too. Lastly I admit when I'm wrong, which happens rarely around here. I was on the Allen bandwagon before he was drafted. Half this board wanted to draft another QB after year two. I love Knox more so than many on here who complain about his drops. He's the best TE Bills have had since the merger. I've really praised Beane's last two off seasons. I think his free agent moves have been great. I thought getting Milano nad Williams back were great moves. Williams didn't work out but I'm not going to go back and say it was a bad move when I thought it was a good move. I criticized him for not making moves during the season to get the defense more help. Maybe he tried to get Miller. Maybe he didn't. We won't know the whole story. I've agreed with his 5th year option decisions even with Edmunds. I've also been consistent in my doubts McD can get us a trophy. I posted that before the 2021 season as an answer to a thread about the biggest worry going into the season. Those doubts sadly came true in KC. I hate the emphasis on special teams for roster and game day decisions. That said McD has gotten better at being aggressive especially before the half, his players love him, and even his challenges got a little better last year. Beane basically implied that in his press conference -

Ethan in Cleveland replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall
I think you grossly overestimate the importance of WRs. QBs make the WRs better not the other way around. Yes if Diggs or Davis got hurt it would change the offense but it would not cripple it. They will already be a more balanced offense this year with more two TE sets and more play action. Knox is going to be an absolute beast this year. The only issue player wise is the OL. Beane has taken some nice steps here but there are still quite a few variables. -

Which one of those guys can call the defense when it matters? -
P, OG, S, trade all the rest away for picks next year.

Slept on it and I hate this pick even more -
Rd 3, Pick 89 (25): LB Terrell Bernard, Baylor
Ethan in Cleveland replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall
The OL has multiple question marks. Brown wasn't that great at RT. Saffold is old. Morse had a nice bounce back year but has mostly been average. No depth at OT. Ford is a bust. Boettger wasn't good before the injury. They should have drafted OL before RB and certainly before undersized LB. -

Not true. No one had an issue with him going in the first round -

Tre was a consensus 1st rounder. This guy is an undersized LB that will be lucky to replace Matakevich. -

It's an awful special team pick. He will be lucky to get snaps on special teams. Waste of a third round pick. Should have been OL. -

Ethan in Cleveland replied to UKBillFan's topic in The Stadium Wall
So to recap we got a CB, a RB, and an undersized LB, two 6 round picks and gave up a 4th. Wow. Pretty underwhelmed. Elam will start. Cook makes up for Moss mistake. And this Bernard looks like he is destined to play special teams. -

If true snag him now and stash him on IR so they can let Edmunds walk next year -
