  1. Can someone please walk me through this desire to use to high picks on a wide receiver? We currently have 4 pass catchers we are comfortable with, and opportunities at other positions. I am fully on board with receiver in the first two rounds, but only the one. Who is this second receiver going to replace on the field. 1st rounder, Samuel, Shakir, Kincaid, Knox. You could also argue Shorter gets a crack. I’d much rather see us try to get someone that can push for the FS, RG, HB2, and DL depth than a 6th pass catcher
  2. Just because you can post, doesn’t mean you always should
  3. Unless you know you are going in the first 3 rounds, I think this is smart for the players. They get paid, their education, and learn more about their NFL skillset and see if they would improve their stock. Worst case scenario, they get their full degree, get paid, and won't be in trouble financially if they don't get drafted
  4. It should take a few years to level out, but good for them. So many players leave school early thinking they are going to cash in, don't make it, and ruin their lives.
  5. Print up some standard divorce papers and nail them to the door to your Draft watching room. Just let your family know they will need to sign that form before entering the room, and that a subsequent eviction notice will be made available at the conclusion of the draft. Priorities are key
  6. For those wanting Legette, I wonder if Brady will even know how to use him properly. Brady, and Daboll, failed to scheme guys open the way you see other teams do it. Jefferson and Hill are great talents, but their coordinators also help them get open. I worry that Legette wouldn’t get properly utilized. Look at Harty and McKenzie. I know they aren’t close to the same talent caliber, but they were our gadget burners that we never figured out how to use.

  8. On one hand, it would be funny to watch the board implode if we went DB with our first round pick. On the other hand, I'd be one of the people imploding...
  9. Hey boss, this whole thing is a little confusing to me. I see that you procured your seats, and for that, congrats! I'm just curious to know were you got your seats at specifically? Are you in a club seat area? Are you under the cover or with the wider, heated seats? From some of the posts, I got the impression you were around the 15 yard line, but only 20 rows back. I was under the impression those couldn't be bought yet
  10. Do we even know if the Bills are interested in McConkey? I'm pretty sure Leggette was a top 30 visit.
  11. For those not happy with us trading back, I'm curious to understand why. To me, unless you are unhappy with missing on AD Mitchell, I like that we were able to still get a WR the Bills clearly covet in Franklin, and move up our 2nd round pick enough to grab a Safety that can start Day 1, AND add a 3rd round pick. If we stayed put, there's a chance that AD isn't there in real life, and we end up reaching for someone like Legette or Franklin at 28. Overall, if we don't get one of the top 3/5 receivers, it's going to be a crap shoot of who goes where, and I trust Beane to make the right calls. There's going to be a lot of reaches in this draft, just because the talent isn't there at so many positions. Overall, after two of these mocks, I think I'd be good if the Bills made multiple trade ups in this draft to get 2 players of value in the first two rounds, then let all the middling crap between picks 50-100 go to other teams. Then the Bills just pick up guys they think can make an impact later on. No matter what, I don't see there being any steals or value after pick 20. Not really
  12. In hindsight, I feel bad for not approving it. That was the only trade attempt I denied for that reason. In previous years, people got out of hand with it and some picks got traded 4 times. I finally try to get ahead of that, and no one tried it.
  13. I'm really surprised no one tried to trade for Higgins or Aiyuk in this draft
  14. Hey everyone, I just wanted to thank you all for your support in moving these drafts along so quickly. I know I said that if 2.0 ended soon enough, we would possibly have a 3rd round. While we did move quicker than I expected, I do think I'm going to end the draft after this round. Honestly, I have a lot of work and other things going on this week that I need to catch up on, so to have a break for the rest of the week before 3.0 would be helpful to me. The plan will be to have the sign-up sheet for 3.0 launch on Sunday, with the draft starting on Monday. That puts the Bills poll most likely at Wednesday into Thursday, and the mock draft being done before the real one starts. Again, I apologize if that ruffles any feathers, and if I could change the thread ownership page over to someone else, I would. Thank you all
  15. I forgot Doc Brown messaged me last night and sent me his pick. With the 59th pick the Jacksonville Jaguars select Roman Wilson, WR, Michigan. Jaguars can now breathe after taking a chance in moving down to acquire a 3rd round pick. Wilson should pair nicely with this WR room adding a speed element that they don't currently have to take the top off of a defense. We prefer WR's that get open and that's exactly what Wilson does. His superb route running and short area quickness should give Lawrence a reliable slot option. The Packers @MrEpsYtown are now on the clock
  16. The Buffalo Bills select Javon Bullard, S, Georgia The Jacksonville Jaguars @Doc Brown are on the clock
  17. Just where McGovern was. No real thought beyond that
  18. Poll selections are updated to the top 6. If your pick was removed, please vote again Do you view any of the safeties available as more of FS to replace Hyde?
