Chaos

because they will help the Bills win more games.

I am following the ESPN Mock. I would take Campbell/Sanders/Simpson/Addison/Banks all ahead of Gibbs. Just to be clear, I would also take quite a few others ahead of gibbs

would consider him in the second. would be shocked to pass on every linebacker in the draft, Jordan Addison, Deonte Banks to take the second best RB in the draft.

He also has hooker going ahead of richardson. seems unlikely.

Are we sure the bolded part is true?

Mayers is not a sleeper pick he is a consenus top 20 pick.

There are 16 players identified as more desireable for the Bills to draft than Jack Campbell as BPA, if they happen to fall. https://www.twobillsdrive.com/community/topic/246627-big-board-top-40-spots-first-cut/#comment-8335661 The purpose of the polling is to narrow among the remaining players. We aren't pigeon holed. We are limited by who is available to select.

Zay Flowers is the clear winner of the WR poll, the second question has been modified to narrow the choices to Campbell, Wright and Flowers.

Sanders won't likley be available with pick 59. Wright is a wild card to me. He might not make it to 27, he might still be around at 40. I think if Sanders is there at 59 and Campbell and Simpson are gone, you almost certainly pick Sanders

And if no one is willing to trade? Do you just skip the pick?

Several Websites seem to like Nick Herbig's Athleticism and think he could succeed in the NFL as an off-ball linebacker. Any opinions on Herbig? https://www.nfl.com/prospects/nick-herbig/32004845-5204-2107-989b-b9a0ebf10845

PFF ranks him at 70. and taking him at 29 his a fail. No real consensus that he is a first round talent:

OT Matthew Bergeron might be there at 59. I am less excited than the board about Wright. But I do think an improved line makes Diggs/Davis/Darty better. I don't think Hyatt or flowers makes the line better. But Allen can have a quick release, and Flowers might be the guy to get separation and move the chains the better than whom we have.

Darnell squared

Based on prellimary results we will not get to a consensus candidate with three choices available. Wright OT, leads. It seems as though we will eventually be removing the WR option. I suspect the WR voters are prioritizing offense and will shift to Wright, but really don't know for sure.

Consensus is he is a third round pick, so 27 would seem like a mistake.

Focus on the real problems holding the team back, like Josh Allen's aggressive play.

Why discuss this in public? It makes no sense.

yes. it ls less bananas than round 1 "must be LB". Literally no NFL team is thinking that. (correct use of the word literally). Or "we are DOA if its not MLB". Both are bananas.

Dodson or Benard starting are at worst a lost season. Spencer Brown starting as a turnstile is at worst the lost of the future competetiveness of the team for a football generation.

Why don't people have reading comprehension skills? When some one says "I am not sure why they are sliding" it would be a bit demented to respond with postives.

Because they are projected to be gone before 27. If they are available they are already identified as BPA's to select in front of the choices we are discussing now. Its all explained here: https://www.twobillsdrive.com/community/topic/246627-big-board-top-40-spots-first-cut/#comment-8335661 WR's and OT's are more expensive than LBs. 5 year cap protection is better utilized on those two positions. I would be OK with Campbell or Sanders at 27, but this is a situaton where one failure compounds itself by having to use a first round pick on an LB (not quite as bad as RB). And in this instance no one seems to think any LB choice is a sure fire starter. The goal for the LB selected in one seems to be "hopefully NFL average". As I said, good with LB, but I am not sure it is a "has to be"

He is projected to be available at 59 almost certainly, and maybe even at 91. I suspect this part of his reputation from NFL.com combine writeup is the main issue. Weaknesses Can be nonchalant through drive phase of intermediate routes. Lacks commitment to detail as a route runner. PFF Version: CONS He lacks the long speed to be a consistent threat downfield. Lets opposing corners get their hands all over him at the line of scrimmage. No stranger to half-hearted routes when the defensive look says the ball isn't coming his way.

This is the Dilemma
