I love a good polarizing pick, especially at a position where the guys generally all rate out the same but our message boarder GMs know more than the guy who hit on WRs in the 4th and 5th rounds. He blocks, they over value that, we know dis. He’s big, physical, they’ve been after that for quite a while… As for the “he runs one route” crowd, how often was he ASKED to run more than one? Im not saying the guy will be a stud, but this Mahomes-esque crying going on here is quite the sight to behold. Watch this guy go be the next T.O…

Maybe for one of the 4ths, certainly not for pick 33, Beane’s not stupid.

I haven’t watched enough college ball, I’m not stating this is my particular preference, just what I think Beane and Co. will do. If he’s anywhere near as versatile as the “analysts” make him out to be, knowing the way Beane covets elite athleticism + the intangibles that can’t be coached, and if there’s any truth to this assessment of Dejean - “He's a great athlete, yes, having posted a 9.85 RAS based on his pro day, but the way he reads the entire field, from the QB's eyes to the receiver's position is almost supernatural” then he’s the pick.

Dejean and then trading up from the bottom of the round using a couple of those 5ths and grabbing Franklin.

I think they’re going Dejean, they just value versatility, defensive backs, and elite ceiling too much to pass here. I think they trade back up from the bottom of the round and grab a WR, likely Franklin is their target in this scenario, imo.

This is literally the exact opposite of everything I’ve heard leading up to this draft, but ok… besides, even if you are correct, he can package all those 5ths and move back into the 4th or 3rd. It gives him a lot of flexibility to get who they want tomorrow.

Everybody freaking out that Buffalo added picks in a deep draft at positions of need meanwhile. Milano Taron Shakir Brown Dawkins Benford Bernard Gabe Cook I’m all for adding as many pick between rounds 2 and 5 as possible.

If I’m Brandon Beane, I’m not moving my 2nd or 3rd rd picks, too much depth at spots of need this year. Id prefer to give up something marginal to move up and secure BTJ in the early 20s, rather than trade the farm to move up for Odunze at 9.

Hopefully not too aggressive. Hard to shake the ghosts of Sammy Watkins from the memory banks, but it feels like that same situation. The draft is loaded with WR potential, and Whaley wanted to get the cream of that crop… then Davante Adams goes in the second round. Point is, in a deep class I’d rather fire 2, even 3 bullets trying to find the Davante Adams, Aj Brown, DK Metcalf, or even Justin Jefferson in the late 1st, rather than risk the farm and hope Nabers or whoever is more Jamar Chase than Sammy “Can’t Miss, Generational Talent” Watkins.

Only one team can win it all, that means 31 others had unsuccessful seasons? For me, personally, it’s all about enjoying sundayS, not just hoping they get to one game at the end of the year and win that one particular Sunday, and if they don’t come out on the right side of that game, then everything was for nought? It would be a great experience and all obviously to see 17 hoist a Lombardi, but as a fan, if my team is winning more than they are losing, that’s all you can really ask for as again only one team can win it all. I’m not going to look back on all these winning seasons with any modicum of failure, I’m just going to count my blessings the Bills Mafia has one of the winningest teams in the NFL over the last five years, and keep hoping next season is the year they finally get over the hump…

Like others have said, I think they are out of the business of paying high dollars for a vet WR. I expect two WRs in the draft, and maybe a signing that I will hate like MVS or OBJ after the draft.

Josh Allen. 4 straight division titles after two decades in the doldrums…

Was Bobby Hart not available?

Yeah, Bills still better because Josh Allen is the best all around football player in the history of the game. I get Houston’s WR trio now probably looks the best in the league on paper, but the NFL changes so much year to year. Diggs clearly on his way to hitting THAT wall as evident by his play suddenly falling into Clayton’s Ravine during the second half of last season. Dell already suffered a major injury. Mixon is nothing special. Just feels a lot like the Jags hype last year before they just did what the Jags inevitably do, imploded, missed the playoffs entirely and completely fell short of expectations.

Glad he’s gone, he was a ghost while the team went on a winning streak and won the division. He’s not a dynamic take over the game wide receiver. He’s a nice player, crisp route runner, but he’s not the difference maker he thinks he is. My only question is, does this extra pick give this team enough capital to move up and grab Odunze, especially with the onslaught of QBs expected to go at the top of the draft?

If I was looking for a bunch of passive aggressive nonsense, I’d talk to my wife. No, Philanthropy while living in continued opulence is not enough. While we continue to live on a planet with ever growing food scarcity and lack of access to clean safe drinking water for a disproportionate amount of people, millions of CHILDREN, then I will never condone the disgustingly excessive lifestyle of billionaires. Yes, children dying of starvation makes me angry. Yes people not having access to the most basic of healthcare makes me angry. Yes knowing none of this HAS to be this way, makes me angry. And yes, I am jealous of those who have the means to make a real difference but don’t. Mega yachts, private jets, private islands, buying social media platforms because you don’t like the narrative while 700+million globally (twice the population of the entire United States), live in abject poverty, and you take advantage of that fact by mining cheap lithium, or using the cheap labor to make all your “Basic” goods. Or maybe like our own Terry Pegs, fracking the planet and destroying ecosystems to make your mint, take your pick, it’s all gross. Would it appeal to your sensitives if I just said the overwhelming majority of the ultra rich are garbage people? Because really it seems like you got hung up on the semantics of a generalization. I’m sorry, MOST billionaires are proper shite, better?

Lol yes Bill Gates and Warren Buffet are “good people” now, right… back to 🏈…

Agree to disagree… I’m sure there are all kinds of people in the Billionares Club, a good one however, I’ll believe it when I meet one. The idea of an altruistic billionaire sounds great in theory, imagine what the world would actually look like if this were indeed the case. Glad you couldn’t let the “bold pass”, what the world definitely needs is the part of the 99% white knighting on behalf of the <1%… If they were good people, they wouldn’t be billionaires. They would’ve used the overwhelming majority of their liquidity/worth to do good, and make lasting change to leave this planet/society better than the one they were born into, and then still live a life of luxury that the overwhelming majority could never fathom on a pittance of a couple hundred million $.

Doesn’t surprise me in the least, I have family who work directly day to day with certain NFL owners (all I can say is it’s not the Pegulas) and I can personally attest billionaires are garbage people so completely out of touch with the world the overwhelming majority of us live in, especially with the record inflation we’ve all had to come to terms with, yet the “cost of living” pay increases that should be standard, are absent all together... The way they will waste egregious sums of $$$ on lavish nonsense, but then nickel and dime their employees is abhorrent. PSL’s are the timeshare of sports. Pegula bought this team for $1.7Billion, the team was valued by Forbes at $3.7Billion in August 23, so likely over $4Billion at this point. But that’s not enough? We need to fund his stadium AND pay out the nose for the RIGHT to purchase tickets… Buy the PSL, perpetuate the cycle of inequality between the elites and the rest of us. Don’t buy the PSL, force change, what are they going to do, abandon a brand new stadium? People act as if there is no choice here…

I’ll just stick with buying a top of the line TV every few years, with the best viewing angles possible, no traffic or obnoxious drunks vomiting in public… to each their own, I get why others enjoy the stadium experience, I did in my 20s, when the team was awful, and tickets were readily available, often below face value on gameday, but as a fan of the actual game and it’s nuances, I don’t think there is a worse sport to watch live. Idc what your financial situation is, I couldn’t fathom paying these egregious sums to watch a game where you’re not even certain what’s happened half of the time until you’ve watched the replay on the Jumbotron. If I had enough $ to not care about the price of the PSLs, that’d mean I’d be worth enough to own my own team, and I’d just do that instead.

Just boycott buying seasons. Tax payers funding Billionaires hobbies is bs to begin with.

How much did the Broncos eat to just make Russ go away? Sometimes you gotta swallow those horse pills to get better… him acting like a petulant little B word, again, isn’t going to help this team get to where it needs to go.

At worst he’s a capable safety, not a ballhawk by any means. Maybe a little too much Donte Whitner to his game. That said, I like the move, I’d almost guarantee this deal is back heavy with this year not counting much more than $2M-$3M against the cap.

Smart move is to just take your lumps for the next 2-3 years, off any player with value for whatever picks they can get, even if they are day 3s, and just field a roster of rookies and vet minimum guys while you bottom out and stack up some top draft picks. Once you do this, don’t ruin it all by giving $250 million fully guaranteed to a sex pest.

So very sorry for your loss.
