I gotta go back and listen to the LB podcast I guess!

Joe Marino will like this pick, he was hoping the Bills would target him if they waited on LB.

Clearly different strokes, I'll never understand how some folks can't wait and read spoilers for movies/TV shows before watching!

It’s more like a couple of minutes before the pick is announced. You’ll see people report the picks on Twitter well before it’s announced. It’s like I’m about to open up a Christmas present, and my parents say “Oh by the way, it’s a sweater and scratch tickets”. Where’s the fun in that?

It ruins the suspense of watching the draft when you know the pick before it’s announced. I made the mistake of going on Twitter and someone posted a pick two minutes before it was even announced. Then you come on here and people are doing the same. So the lesson for me is to just watch the draft and don’t look at any posts online.

Just looking at by betting app and the odds of the Bills taking a TE with their first pick was paying 35-1(!!!). Nobody saw this coming! I totally expected them to wait on TE, similar to when they picked Knox in a solid TE class. There are lots of other solid TEs in this draft but the Bills went for the best.

I love Kincaid, hope the Bills can utilize him! Amazing receiver!

Damn nice pick my Minnesota, they know how to draft WR.

Gotta be Levis here right?

Starting to think Jordan Addison will be available at 27 and hopefully the pick, he was in for a top 30 visit.

This is not very fun when Mel Kiper spoils the pick before it’s made.

I agree that Simpson is more of a Beane pick than Campbell though, Simpson is a potential home run pick while Campbell is the safer selection.

Excellent post, but I don't believe the Bills had a top 30 visit/private workout with any LBs (which is very fishy). I know they had scouts at many Clemson games (per Dean Kindig) but haven't heard of any interviews with Trenton Simpson. I remember seeing they've had contact with Jack Campbell though.

Interesting, I was listening to a Move The Sticks podcast and Daniel Jeremiah/Pete Schrager did a mock where they had the Bills picking Matthew Bergeron at pick 27.

Bills are putting in some work on scouting this year's RBs. I don't really like the Bills current RB room but are they prepared to invest another early pick at RB? This guy is getting 3rd/4th round hype, I can't see this happening.

Trenton Simpson - just because he’d be fun to watch, dude can absolutely fly Jonathan Mingo - love his tape, has size and excellent athleticism Jordan Addison - I think he goes well before the Bills pick but he’s a baller Bijan - I get that RB in round 1 is wrong, but this guy makes it look easy out there. I also expect he’ll be gone early. Sam Laporta - not big at TE but he’s a dog, thinking they wait and take Schoonmaker though

I agree this class doesn't seem great, Beane also stated he doesn't have a lot of first round grades.

I had to look up Peter King to see who he is, he has 1.7M followers on Twitter lol, so maybe he has some sources. That is so strange, I wonder if he'd be available in round 3 though. I'd take him then.

Let’s say the Bills don’t draft a LB in round 1, what are the odds that one of Jack Campbell, Trenton Simpson, or Drew Sanders are there for the Bills second pick?

I hated the Cook pick but all the good WR were gone at that point, Shakir was good value in the 5th round though. Beane has never drafted a WR early and I expect the same this year.

It pains me that Charbonnet will likely go around the same range of where James Cook was drafted last year. This visit is interesting though, Charbonnet has to be off the table this year considering the Cook pick last year.

Steelers are pretty notorious for drafting WR talent, I’m surprised they make this move. More like the last two seasons, I’m not expecting much from him in Pittsburgh.

Quentin Johnston is the only early WR that the Bills have not met with, they’ve talked to JSN, Hyatt, Flowers, and Addison. Maybe they like him and don’t want to show it though?
