In other words, trying to compete while in a rebuild mode.

I felt certain at least two receivers would be taken with all the picks they had.

Really nice pick at this spot-- thought he would go earlier. Possible Day 1 starter.

Wanted Baker. Beane clinging to his 5th rounders-- or no one wants them?

Love this pick. Really impressive at Senior Bowl and the Combine.

He was Kiper's top available receiver.

I really liked him during the college season, but was turned off by his speed at the draft-- until I saw him leading the pack in the gauntlet drill. I don't know how this will work at the next level, but I'm willing to give it a chance (No choice, anyway--lol).

Having listened to him, he just might. He is going to have to start making some picks sometime, though-- or he could trade them for 2025's.

He sees good value tomorrow. Also likes having ammo to possibly move around some more.

He's getting calls for 33 already. He said, "we'll see."

Beane speaking now. Didn't try to move up. Happy he's got a 3 now.

He's probably trying to figure out how many 4th, 5th and 6th rounders he can get for each 2nd.

Right now, the Bills have a couple slot guys, and some 4th or 5th tier filler. Hope Beane has some big moves in store for tomorrow, since there is no 1 or 2 on the team. He also said he didn't think there were 28 guys in this draft worthy of a 1st round grade-- so he won't be getting anything like that with the picks that are left.

Bills won't stop helping Kansas City. Already got them a couple SB's with the Mahomes gift. Now, they have provided them a T. Hill replacement. One team I would never trade with-- the Chiefs. Just mind-numbing. And they leave the 1st round with no receivers-- in a round where 7 were taken. There are a lot of receivers in the draft, but I don't think anyone left is a potential #1 (maybe Mitchell-- but he doesn't seem ready to take on that role immediately). Really looking forward to the 5-7 round landfall the Bills have put together.

Given his history and age, feel his trade value is low. Much more value on the field with the Bills (his main issue).

All-time great on the field. Will just leave it there.

No argument. Just wish it was a 2024 pick.

Clear from the Beane press conference that Diggs wanted out. As to what is next, Beane just said the roster isn't set until September. Have the draft, obviously (no guarantee of first rounder there), and whatever other moves may be possible. Really not much learned-- certainly will look to add to the WR room. I still believe WR will be taken in the first, with a trade up a distinct possibility.

So the next step is to move up for one of the top WR prospects?

Not against moving on from Diggs, given his drop in play and questions about his desire to be here. But nothing until 2025 ('24 looking like a bit of a reboot)? Beane must have more moves in mind (my assumption).

I don't believe he will be on the team. They will draft someone and/or sign a FA.

No surprise.

So the Bills don't have any starting safeties. Hyde and Poyer will be really tough to replace-- although age and injuries have taken their toll.

No surprise here.

Surprised in light of the Bates trade. O-Line had been playing well--- now two big holes. Have some in-house guys, but seems like a step back on a unit that had looked good.
