    Looks like one of those reads that scouts will want to forget they wrote in a couple of years.   Often times players going into the league is all about the fit and how they are used in the league.   Word is he has blitz pickup chops.....he has pedigree.....and his strengths are obvious on tape.   Why in the world would we take a bellcow back that takes the ball OUT of Josh Allen's hands?   We are a passing team.   And I also dont buy that he cant carry the ball.   He fit into a nitch with his college team and they had someone else run the ball between the tackles.  As an outside zone runner?  I think he fits it perfectly.

    You are making things up.  He is not a 4.8 guy.....Where in the F do you get that from.

    Those holes that Singletary goes thru, Cook will go through faster. We have had two of the slowest RB's in the league and now we have a guy that can make some huge plays.....i believe if he is used to his strengths this will be an incredible player for us.  Singletary still has value but this guy is dynamite

    So we all see a video of a guy who isn’t doing backflips after getting drafted, but why does everyone have to have that reaction? Have you watched other interviews from him where he shows tons of emotion that would make you think this way? Maybe he’s just a calm guy by nature, maybe he didn’t feel the need to ham it up for the camera…to me your thinking is the 20 years of drought thinking. The Bills are a destination now, players want to play in Buffalo

    wake up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. Just observing what I saw. Go Bills!

    Im going to shed some light on this whole thing. His father died less then 2 years ago. He was his personal trainer.. his life... they had a very close relationship. At the presser he wore a picture of his father. This is a dude that does not like to show true emotions. I am sure his father had his favorite teams and he had his favorite teams. 

     

    Also at the presser he talked about "it not hitting him yet"

     

    The dude is going through a wide range of emotions.  Jim Kelly did not want to play for the Bills at all... Maybe this kid wanted to play/live where its warmer? who knowns. 1 week in buffalo with teamates will be all it takes.. 

    Thanks brother

  4. Just saw a replay of Cook finding out about who was drafting him. This just may be his personality, but he didn't look happy. And then his press conference he really looked like a guy who is living a nightmare turn of events.  First thing to came to my mind was seeing a kid opening a huge Christmas present and seeing 10 pair of underwear or socks.

     I know I'm probably imagining it, but he looked so unenthused about the situation he is in. Especially, after you see Terrel Bernard speak and realize Cook and Bernard are barely on the same planet, personality wise and enthusiasm wise. i can understand if he was dreaming of being drafted by Tampa or Miami or Atlanta or Tennessee so hopefully, I'm way wrong (and I am quite often) I do Like this draft. Nice having a great group of Exec's running this team. Go Bills!

    And if you are grading production on a curve a late round option like Chandler who put up 6 ypa and 14 ypr in 2021 is a good example of a guy who excelled in a much better defensive conference.

     

    It's common sense not to draft a RB in round 1..........there are a mountain of reasons why and tons of supporting evidence.    Bills haven't passed on one that went in round 1 in over 30 years and lived to regret it.    The only regrets are the one's they did take.

     

    But a lot of folks actually think Singletary was a bad pick and desperately needs to be replaced..............and in reality he has produced above what you can expect from pick #72.......or may get from #25.   

     

    And pick #72 is worth about 220 points of value in trade.  

     

    Pick #25 is worth 720.

     

    How much better than Singletary would a first round RB have to be to justify such a waste of value while also relegating Singletary to the bench?

     

     

    Not sure it matters WHERE Singletary was picked. IMO we were a Najee Harris away from winning a super Bowl last year. Singletary is just not good enough to be counted on to run out the clock or make key first downs consistantly. We can't have to continue needing  Josh be our RB to close the games out,

    No, I think I would still favor Booth over Watson because I think Booth is a better player.  Others may like Watson over Booth - I acknowledge that those two are close.  But if they reduced the urgency by having a viable vet on the roster before the draft, I could understand picking a player at a position other than corner if that other position is as important as corner and if that other player is better than the available corners.


    I have no inside information, but it could be that they are looking to trade a vet on the roster (Epenesa?) for a corner.  I’m thinking like the deal where the Bills traded a LB who had fallen out of favor here (Kelvin Sheppard) for Jerry Hughes whom the Colts had kind of given up on.

     

    I think that your argument has some merit, I just don’t think that Breece Hall or Kenny Walker are anything special.  They are decent prospects, but I don’t think they would make that much impact over what Singletary does - I would rather bolster the OL than pick a RB in the 2nd.

    IMO, Booth would start right away. he is far superior to Dane Jackson. Watson would spend a lot of time watching the game from the sidelines. This is the year to win it all. But I respect those who differ. My Dad  and my brother coached and I'm a damn teacher, so what do I know?🙈

    Does anyone have a DB they don’t want at 25. I really like a lot of DBs in this draft. Especially in the 1st 2 rounds. I kind of want to double up with CB and S.

    McCreary from Auburn is not my favorite Just don't know how his Alligator arms translate. But he can cover and seems to enjoy the physical part of the game.

    If both were there they’d take Booth in the first without question….. 

    But, but... I want both Scott. Help a brother out.

  8. I just watched the Clemson N.C. St. game, the Georgia game and the Boston College game. Booth looks like a spectacular upgrade over Dane Jackson, and I like Jackson. I did not read any of your guy's posts. Maybe there is something I'm missing. Great tackler and sticky defender in those games. I will go and read what you have to say. Go Bills!!

    Imagine, Jameson Williams slipping to 25 and the. Trading up in rd 2 for booth?  Oh man. 
     

    that said, I don’t think Booth falls to us. He’s too good

    As i made my first post, I was thinking the same thing. Williams and/or Booth would be so, so nice!

  9. In the unlikely scenario that Lloyd is available, I would draft him and keep both. Because Injuries happen. Competition is good. I don't think we survive really well with #44 as a starter. JMO. Though Dotson will probably get first crack if Edmunds gets hurt, He doesn't look like anything special.  Depth in the middle and at CB seems like a logical goal early in the draft. Remember, there could be many cuts of RB's, CB's, and LB's after the draft. Bottom Line-----> I trust our staff to fill those holes with Buffalo type Men/Players.

    Edmunds replacement will probably be drafted in the first round and Edmunds will probably be traded on draft day. We can’t keep everybody. We use premium picks on premium positions and middle linebacker is a premium position to us.

    Brace for impact. Edmunds will more than likely be traded on draft day. And it might be Troy Anderson or Quay Walker at 25

  11. To All. Thank You. We lost our MOM in November and now they are together again. His message which I'm going to steal from him is: "2022 Bills: Take No Prisoners". He had ir for 2021 but I'm going to use for next year. I will not post again on this subject as this is a Bills talk site but thanks to all that posted and especially Mark and Rico. Go Bills

    @Garrett Williams I am very sorry to hear this.

     

    I was at both the 04 & 05 drafts with you & your dad, and also in Oakland for a Bills game.

     

    I know that he did not post all the time, but I would get the occasional message from him.

     

    Wishing you and your family many condolences, and may your dad rest in peace.

    Thank You Mark.  I remember meeting you for a meal at the ESPN Sports Zone on one of those occasions. Blessings to you and yours and to I do remember the Hard Hats you always wore at those drafts !
