I have seen him on some sleeper lists to be fair…I’m not gonna pretend to know anything about him myself though haha

We had a lot of needs. You can't force a pick if the value isn't there. Like i've said a million times, it just means they'll be looking at veterans post Draft for that extra spot instead of the Draft.
If he doesn't bring in anyone else from the veteran market from here to Training Camp, it's fair to get upset. But it wasn't a great WR class to begin with. And the value was more elsewhere.
Josh had to be exponentially more pissed off at the defense than his offensive weapons I am genuinely perplexed people don’t see it that way. The dude would have to put up 40-50 points to beat good teams. I don’t see how a 3rd or 4th round talent wr in a bad wr draft really would’ve put a dent in that

A circus-free offseason lol

I don't think people are moaning about that so much as there was a run BEFORE that pick, we had 5 picks left in the draft, could easily have moved up and did squat about it.
That’s a fair point but people are certainly moaning about both lol I see a lot of bond chatter. I’m not sure I’d call it a run

Haha gotta tip the cap for the use of Hanjob despite liking the pick 😂

Let’s grab Reilly Leonard ND QB next. Better chance to make the team than anyone else except the punter at this point. Tough player the likes of Kelly and Allen, from a winning program. First real development QB since Fromm.
Potentially save money cutting Trubiski?
He’s gone…colts took him

No wide receiver has been drafted by anyone since everyone complained the Hancock pick wasn’t a wr 😂

He wasn't good. Sorry overall he looked like a shell of the guy we hoped to get. I think many of us would have rather kept the 3rd round pick.
Yea I’m more positive about what we’ve done for this year but even I’ve gotta agree with this. Even if cooper comes back I don’t think he changes much

It's more than just a loss of a pick. Whomever Drafts him will have to answer to why they're supporting someone criminally charged with SA. They'll have to explain why they think law enforcement is wrong during an ongoing criminal case. On top of all of that, with him being charged with such a heinous crime - odds are the league will put him on the exempt list until the legal process plays out. Including a trial that could take years.
He will not be Drafted and he shouldn't be Drafted. After reading the affadavit, it's pretty gross to hear and Bills fan say "I don't care, he's talented".
The araiza thing was such a sh*tshow even with the DA saying there was no evidence to do anything criminally. I can’t even imagine what this is gonna be like

I get that this has been a good draft, but it's just not cool to have nobody to follow in training camp at the fun positions.
I’m glad someone said this out loud haha cuz that’s what I figured was going on here

Don’t disagree but outside of Hairston, everyone is defensive depth. Does that really improve our D much? Will Hairston as a rookie really be a significant upgrade over Rasul? For all the resources dedicated on the DL, McDermott loves his rotation so it’s difficult for anyone to really dominate. If an injury happens at LB, our backups outside of Williams are a significant liability and the tandem of Rapp and Bishop leave a lot to be desired.
Really hope I’m wrong and the Bills truly crushed this draft but at this point it’s very much wait and see and hoping vs. expecting.
Rasul was bad borderline awful last year so I honestly think Hairston will be a pretty big upgrade over what Rasul did last year. Maybe he turns it around and Rasul is an upgrade over Rasul from last year though that could happen but he still was awful last year lol
I think the wr hungry bunch on here are really underselling how bad the defense was last year. Based on mcds track record I can nearly guarantee one of these late cbs is gonna be a homer also and seeing as corner depth sunk us last year idk how that’s not exciting.

Laviska Shenault or Tyrell Shavers are going to make the roster. It’s sad.
Yea and they’re probably better than the non-Bond receivers they could’ve drafted the last two rounds lol

Unreal that they just do not care about offense.
Teams clearly don’t like bond’s legal issues…picking another wr in the bills spot the last few picks is just wasting the pick imo. A late round cb in this draft could be an absolute home run though

It almost feels like Beane doesn't give a damn now.
"Oh it's our pick?"
*Throws dart at board*
A blocking monster at TE could do a lot for this offense..considerably more than an absolute nobody of a wr. y’all are way too emotional.

And we aren't going to be top 3 or whatever in offense this year. Teams know how to attack our offense that has no speed after watching it last year.
Not sure what the chiefs were doing in the playoffs defensively then lol we were a few shady spots away from scoring 35 on them imo. They had the personnel and allegedly the blueprint and had their worst defensive performance of their season

Have you? It's is extremely unlikely that 5th round rookie unseats any of the top 4. This is your emotions running amuck because you want a WR so you want them to select one regardless of the likelihood of success.
I think people’s expectations are wayyyy too high for 5th round players if I had a takeaway from todays message board activity haha

Hancock is College also played a lot of.......Man Coverage so we have now taken two defensive backs who specialize in man.
We’re almost assuredly going to be playing more man like we did down the stretch last year

maybe it's just me but being upset about not getting a 5th round WR in a weak WR class seems odd. It's all dart throws at this point and personally I'd rather stack up on DEF with the current roster.
It absolutely is odd…and then acknowledging all of the weak class of WRs are gone (outside of the one with legal troubles) and still being mad we didn’t reach for an absolute nobody wr is even more odd imo 😂

He’s not going to jail, mark my words.
That’s possible…I think he’ll probably be a free agent for awhile while his legal stuff plays out and then one of the infamous teams that gives guys like that a shot will sign him if I had to guess lol.

True, but the value is there relative to the remaining players
I mean a short suspension and no criminal consequences is the absolute best case scenario at this point…the guy might never play in the league depending on how his legal stuff shakes out

I'm not sure credible sounding is accurate. There is definitely questions especially after the counter lawsuit that Bond put out. That being said I don't see him picked until 6th or 7th and it'd be a risky selection. But maybe that is why we met with him so much this offseason to do our homework on his character and if he is worth a late draft pick. Im sure our people knew of everything before it became general knowledge.
Yea I have no idea what’s going to happen with it but I wanted to make it sound different than someone claiming things on social media without evidence type stuff.
I’m pretty sure he’ll be suspended for some time if he does end up on a team…maybe not until next year though

Just now, SoonerBillsFan said:
If so we will outbid and get him.
Not sure how his criminal case will shake out but he’s undoubtedly getting suspended if he’s on a team.

Brandon Beane on WGR
in The Stadium Wall
Posted · Edited by Generic_Bills_Fan
Defensive depth has been a huge problem against the chiefs in the playoffs for multiple years now on top of needing a huge upgrade at cb2 over how Douglas played last year
It’s givin me a bit of a chuckle people are complaining we drafted multiple corners in a deep cb draft because they wanted mid round WRs in a weak wr draft. If we mostly stood pat there’s just too many guys on the defensive side where it’s a virtually guaranteed loss against the playoff chiefs if they’re not available to play. You could give Josh any wr of his choosing from around the league and the bills still probably lose that chiefs game without benford last year. If taron goes down, pretty much the same deal
13 seconds game the starting corners were Levi Wallace/dane Jackson, last year after benford went down we were in even worse shape than that. And the game in between those two we lost pretty much the whole LB room against PIT the week before.
