Value pick, and the OL just got way better. Even RT will improve with Torrence on the line. There's a trickle down effect. I was down to LB Simpson and OG Torrence.

No spoilers!

TORRENCE OR SIMPSON!!! LET'S GO! Honestly I'm shocked both are still on the board.

Stay away from LB Dallas....

I'm about EQUAL on OG O'Cyrus Torrence and MLB Trenton Simpson.

Bills have a tough decision here. My heart tells me Trenton Simpson, but my head says O-line.

They lost Hardman, so maybe Hyatt. Tank?

Let's hope for a reach here....

KC is such a wildcard. .... But the pick is obvious: Hendon Hooker. lol

Liked Dexter but hoped for him in the 3rd.

They have been derailed by starting RB injuries a lot in recent history. I think this is a two headed monster approach.

GREAT OL and LB options coming up so far...... Hyatt's there too right now.

What I can see just from the highlights. He plays a LOT of slot lineups and he goes deep. - Go from the slot - Deep Post from the slot - Mid Curl from the slot - Red Zone: Out (tight) - Deep Flag from the slot .......I stopped analyzing...... but I think we get the point. Dude's a BIG slot WR that can also play tight if needed. I don't see a lot of motion in Utah, but that would be an interesting wrinkle.lllll. Watch out

Good thread. Start by looking at the route tree that worked for him in college. I'd also interview him about certain plays that really feel natural for him. Look at our current offensive personnel, and see if our roster could handle an NFL version of those college plays. Then? DO IT!

To the OP, we will never know.

I'm guessing TE1.

Most of not all will be gone when we pick unfortunately so we either get lucky, move up, or reach from outside of this list. I did not include any pass rushers, QBs, RBs, WRs (we have Kincaid....). Focussing on OL, LB, DT, Safety depth, PLUS any round 1 slips. No particular order: 1. S Brian Branch 2. CB Joey Porter 3. OG O'Cyrus Torrence 4. RT Dawand Jones 5. OC John Michael Schmitz 6. CB Cam Smith 7. OG Steve Avila 8. LB Drew Sanders (not an every down linebacker IMO, but great pass rusher) 9. OC Luke Wypler 10. DT Keeanu Benton 11. LB Daiyan Henley (better as a SAM linebacker) 12. MLB Trenton Simpson 13. S Sydney Brown 14. DT Kobie Turner Some of these are a bit of a reach for round 2 I realize

This mock considers PROSPECT VISITS / INTERVIEWS. I chose BPA according to our visit list. No consideration of my own "percieved team needs".

I've removed the players already drafted... Here are the team visits with Black/Bolded going second round in mocks, and Blue/Bolded going third round in mocks. Adetomiwa Adebawore, Defensive End, Northwestern (COM) Jordan Battle, Safety, Alabama (PRI) Brian Branch, Safety, Alabama (WOR) Julius Brents, Cornerback, Kansas State (COM) Ji'Ayir Brown, Safety, Penn State (COM) Nathaniel Dell^, Wide Receiver, Houston (PRI, WOR) Gervon Dexter, Defensive Tackle, Florida (PRI) Josh Downs, Wide Receiver, North Carolina (COM) Payne Durham, Tight End, Purdue (VIR) Derick Hall, Outside Linebacker, Auburn (VIR) Jalin Hyatt, Wide Receiver, Tennessee (PRI) Roschon Johnson, Running Back, Texas (PRO) Justin Marshall^, Wide Receiver, Buffalo (WOR, LOC) Michael Mayer, Tight End, Notre Dame (COM) Kendre Miller, Running Back, TCU (PRI) Riley Moss, Cornerback, Iowa (COM) Zacch Pickens, Defensive Tackle, South Carolina (PRI) Jayden Reed, Wide Receiver, Michigan State (COM) Jammie Robinson, Safety, Florida State (COM) Jaquelin Roy, Defensive Tackle, LSU (PRI) John Michael Schmitz, Center, Minnesota (VIR) Luke Schoonmaker, Tight End, Michigan (COM) Juice Scruggs, Center, Penn State (VIR) Justin Shorter, Wide Receiver, Florida (PRI) Trenton Simpson, Linebacker, Clemson (COM) Mazi Smith, Defensive Tackle, Michigan (PRI) Tyjae Spears, Running Back, Tulane (WOR) O'Cyrus Torrence^, Offensive Guard, Florida (PRI, PRO) Tuli Tuipulotu, Defensive End, USC (COM) Darnell Washington^, Tight End, Georgia (COM, PRI) Michael Wilson, Wide Receiver, Stanford (COM) Byron Young, Defensive End, Tennessee (COM) Christian Young, Safety, Arizona (WOR)

I vote for "Porkchop". lol.. Yes, I agree it's too early for this. Let's see his identity as a Bill first.

I'm eating crow. Can I change my reaction to "Agree"? LOL Nice call.

I like Henley but think he's more suited for a SAM linebacker role, not so much MLB. I'd much prefer Trenton Simpson.

I've got 14 prospects that I would be happy with for the Bills in round 2 (with round 1 and 2 grades).

I surprised myself when I started leaning to Kincaid after the WRs came off the board. Kincaid was my pick as a Big/Physical WR prospect, once Johnston came off the board as well as Jack Campbell. Kincaid was my pick.

Thanks for the excellent post! Great reference heading into this evening. Personally I think it could go with any scenario outlined, and it will all depend on how the first 10 picks play out. We don't have a 4th rounder now. My thoughts are that we still need a MLB and RT as players who would compete to start, and the rest will be just roster fillers (with upside). I'd be okay with losing Oliver in a trade that gets us to the top of round 2, and maybe gives us a day 3 pick to sweeten the deal.
