If we walk together, little children
We don't ever have to worry
Through this world of trouble
We gotta love one another
Let us take our fellow man, by the hand
Try to help him to understand
We can all be together, forever and ever
When we make it to the promised land -
Pulling out jives and jamboree handouts
Two turntables and a microphone
Bottles and cans, just clap your hands
Just clap your handsWhere it's at
I got two turntables and a microphone

McDermott will insist on trading up to draft a corner. I can see this on a a cold dark night from miles away. One thing I have learned from being a Bills Fan for many decades is that history really does repeat itself. It is going to happen and it will once again harm the team.
The good news? I'm not going to stress out the way I used to. What was it they said about being granted serenity? I will post a comment or two but it won't be tearing me apart the way it used to. I will be a BIlls Fan if they draft defensive backs in every round. Front office idiocy has not stopped, and will not stop me from supporting the team.
PS: In my non-expert opinion, the quality of this draft is quite poor, but I will still watch and hope for a Bills miracle.

Calliope wail like a seaside zoo
The very last lately inquired about you
It's really very one or two
The first you wanted, the last I knew
I just wonder if you shouldn't feel
Less concerned about the people unreal
The very first word is, "How do you do?"
The last "Go home. Your mama's calling you."
Calling you, calling you, calling you, calling you

Hampton Inn Williamsville is in a wonderful location. Great restaurants, breweries, etc. and reasonably priced.

Honestly, I won’t hate it. Who cares about draft picks at this point?
The sick part of me would enjoy seeing your reaction if they did this! 😎
I'm way more under control than I used to be. I'm just edgy before this draft because I can see what is coming a mile away.

Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say, "I love you, " right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
I've looked at life that wayBut now old friends, they're acting strange
They shake their heads, they say I've changed
Well something's lost, but something's gained

Gotta be honest: Everyone but Bills fans probably looks at the 2017 Bills-Chiefs draft day trade as pretty serendipitous.
Bills trade the pick to the Chiefs that they use to take possible future GOAT Patrick Mahomes. Mahomes proceeds to win 3 championships and 3 Super Bowl MVPs before age 30 and singlehandedly prevents the Bills from advancing to multiple Super Bowls.
Serendipity.
Hey, at least we were able to draft CB Tre White instead of Mahomes. You see? There IS always a silver lining.

Addresses two needs at once. We're the perfect team to employ him full-time at CB and as a complementary piece at WR.
If he drops past Cleveland, what would it take? 1st, both 2nds, next years 1st?
I don't think Beane would ever pull off this kind of move, but fun to think about.
Maybe we should trade Josh Allen for him or even another cornerback, and throw in our 1st round pick in 2026 to sweeten the pot if need be.

He was never actually the GM in anything but name though, was he? Tom Modrak was running those drafts from home with Russ Brandon as his lacky on the end of a telephone. Marv, bless him, slept through scouting meetings and was not even present in the draft room for multiple picks in his first draft.
He hired his clone (Jauron) and together concentrated on defensive backs above all else. The 2006 draft was as bad as could possibly be, other than Kyle Williams who we lucked into in round 5. Even Kyle was placed at the nose where he did bot belong and didn't play well until he was moved.
-
Marv Levy is WAY overrated as a coach, and probably the worst GM in modern day football. Just absolutely terrible.
This is not to say he is not a good person. He is and I wish him the best.
Sorry, but you asked.

With selection #57 The panthers, in an effort to protect Bryce Young, select Cameron Williams - OT - University of Texas.
I have not seen that much of him, but what I have seen is Quinn Ewers having all day to throw most of the time. I am hoping that this huge kid devlops into a solid RT, or at least a quality guard.
The Texans and @Big Blitzare on the clock.

Just a heads up, I will be away from my laptop until later tonight, and won't be around when the poll ends. Whoever wins the poll at 7p with be the selection, and the draft can continue. I will update the main page once I get home later.
@Bill from NYC @Big Blitz. I'm aware that I have a pick myself after you two.
Not a prob. I will have my pick promptly after 7 PM.

Yea it is not debatable. Mac was a better college QB than Jalen Milroe. That said Mac was arguably a better college QB than Jalen Hurts too and we have seen how that went in the pros. I thought Mac was overdrafted. I thought his ceiling as an NFL QB was a game manager and the game is getting increasingly dynamic at the position. Jalen is dynamic though needing lots of refinement. So I might take an argument that Jalen has more going for him than Mac did as an NFL prospect at the spot (I'm not saying that is a slam dunk but I think a reasonable argument can be made). But you are unquestionably right about who was better in college. That is beyond debate.
You too are correct. Mac was a better college QB than Hurts imo. Hurts is doing better in the NFL because of his mobility, and the fact that he is a physical specimen. Hurts would squat trremendous amounts of weight and is amazingly strong, as well as being very fast. They are both very intelligent.
Mac has not shown much in the NFL. We will see what the future holds. I have been wrong many times before but I think that if he was in the right spot he would be a pretty good QB. I wish he was on the Bills as a backup.

So Tua, Hurts, and Young for sure. Mac Jones debatable. Before then just a bunch of guys who he certainly has far more potential than.
Mac Jones debatable? As a starter he was undefated and won a national title. Look at his stats. His junior year was probably one of the all time best seasons for a college QB. His completion pct. was 77.4 with 41 TDs.
Milroe is a better runner but as a passer, he takes sacks all the time because he cannot make decisions. He has a deep arm but has a hard time completing short and mid range passes. The Alabama team was much better than it's record last season. Milroe, despite his talent, held them back.
Anything can happen. Milroe IS a talented player and I wish him well. That said, Mac was 1,000 times better at Alabama than Milroe. Maybe someone in the NFL can coach him up. I hope so, but; he had some very well qualified coaches in Tuscaloosa. Bill O'Brien once told him that he should switch positions.

Suposedly your former QB Milroe is one of players that got invited to the draft. So he is expected to be a first rounder if that’s the case. Maybe we get 4 QBs in round 1 in reality?Milroe is a great kid, but he is the worst QB to play at Alabama for many years.

When i saw it was you I knew i lost my chance. Been trying to trade up since the Bills pick with no luck.
Wow, what a steal! It isn't impossible that Dart will be the best QB in this draft, or perhaps top two. I expect him to be drafted in the top 15.
Jmo.

@Virgil and everyone else participating in the draft, I am sorry that I was unable to make the pick on schedule.
When I was attempting to login there was a warning stating that the security certificate had expired.
I was following the thread all day waiting for my turn to pick.
Belatedly I welcome Maxwell Hairston to the Minnesota Vikings!
I will continue to follow the draft even though the Vikings have no further picks.
If I was to have made the pick as the Vikings GM, it would have been Jihaad Campbell (LB), who could have been a versatile chess piece for Brian Flores to unleash.
Thanks to to all who stepped in to keep the mock going in my absence.
I had the same issue. Some sort of warning that did not appear on other sites.

Bad idea because this draft sucks, or at least it appears that way. If anything perhaps we can trade back into 2026 in some way.

The Bills have an offer to trade up to #20. The poll indicates wanting to stay at 30.
To me, the players we would have wanted to trade up for are gone, and everyone left is in the same tier, so 30 will get us someone.
Smart move to stay put. If anything they could trade back into 2026. This draft sucks, or at least it appears to.
The best thing about the 2025 NFL Draft is the work that you have put into this mock, and I thank you.

So was I. I was higher on Gordon even than McDuffie and while McDuffie is an outstanding player, Gordon has developed into a stud himself. I had Elam as CB7.
I was obviously unhappy with trading up for a first round corner, but I had seen Elam play against a superb Alabama team and he looked like a great player. I really thought that he would be a star on the Bills and have no idea what happened.

With the 8th selection in Round 1, the Panthers reluctantly select Emeka Egbuka - WR - Ohio State
I believe that Bryce Young is a good quarterback and can improve. I really wanted to get him a Left Tackle but none really stand out imo, except perhaps Campbell and he is gone. In a real scenario, I would have wanted to trade down and grab one of these kids that might have to play guard. In any event, I got Bryce a fine weapon that he can use. Oh well.
The Saints and @Alphadawg7are on the clock.

Thanks @Virgil!! This was great again. I actually enjoyed walking away hating the Bills draft 🤣🤣.
Yep. Who would recognize a Bills draft without a little disgust?
Well, I take that back. We did have a few good drafts.....in the last 40 years.

Totally agree. This draft looks to be a weak one, or so I think.
I wouldn't mind trading out of round one if we could make a trade that would include a #1 in 2026 and other considerations.
