My comment on Franklin really has nothing to do in comparison with Legette. Yes I have a big problem with a guy who has one year of production and failed in 17 starts before that to be successful. I look at the guys whole career not just one year of tape. I’m making assumptions and I know someone said it had to do with Justin Fuente being incompetent(not you) but I just don’t believe that Fuente would crush his big opportunity to spite Legette. Beamer was there two years ago as well and he still couldn’t put it together. I just think there has to be some issue I nor you are privy too when it comes to learning a playbook or attitude . Guys that physically talented don’t fail for 4 years for no reason and he didn’t just fail he really failed I know you disagree but I really think that if Juice Wells didn’t get hurt last year Legette wouldn’t have had such gaudy stats and opportunities We’ll just have to wait and see in two to 3 years

Yup that’s my bad

Caleb Williams- Bigger Kyler Murray Drake Maye- Sam Darnold Jayden Daniels- RGIII I like JJ McCarthy- Matt Ryan Michael Penix- Left handed Baker Mayfield

read a trade value chart. 6 spots in the 2nd is an 80 point difference. That would require both 5ths and our top 6th to do. All 3 6th rounders don’t equal 80 points. The Bills also draft a lot of starting and depth guys on day 3. With your mindset we wouldn’t have Taron Johnson, Matt Milano, Christian Benford, Tyler Bass, Dane Jackson the last 4 years, Gabe Davis the last 4 years

He’s a precise route runner who can take the top off of a defense. Has great acceleration and changes up his speeds on routes making him deceptive. He’s obviously thin and I worry about press on him in the NFL but he did fine with it in college. He’ll also have to expand his route tree as well so he is not an immediate guy and may never be a true # 1 but he’ll be a really high end 2 or low level 1 in the NFL and I can live with that at the end of round 1. People on this board expect 1,000 yards rookie year and it’s not going to happen. Diggs, Cook, Kincaid are gonna get the bulk with Shakir, Samuels, Knox getting their share as well. If we get 40-50 catches for 700 yards I’ll consider that a win for any rookie we decide to draft

If you told me I could get a healthy Robert Woods who played with Josh Allen his whole career at 28 I’d take it

No the Bills traded 10 for 27, a 3rd, and a next years first. Poster either misheard or Trapasso is off on his valuation

I thought Franklin was the best fit for the Bills and strayed away from that after the combine but as we get closer I find myself drawn back to him again as best fit

To learn about Franklin. You basically bring them in and have Nix break down the offense for you and progressions and reads etc. So it’s not like you bring in Nix and just ask him about Franklin all day. Once Nix breaks all that stuff down then you bring in Franklin and ask him very Similar type questions to see if the information matches up which will show the Bills what his knowledge is of the offense etc.

To me it seems way easier just moving down into the 30s than trying to make multiple separate trades and hoping you have 3 teams willing to accept trades with your compensation terms

All you have to do is look at a draft value chart to know that’s wrong unless a team is desperate. Jacksonvilles pick is worth 950 points Bills pick worth 660 for a difference of 290 points. If the Bills gave up 60 this year then yes of would make sense. To give up a 2025 2nd rounder is the equivalent of a 2024 3rd rounder which will be about 130 points for the Bills leave them about 160 short

I agree that OT and OL in general is going to have a lot of humans drafted early. Look at how annual deals are going up because there are so few quality lineman in the league

Hey if that happens I think that’s a steal in round 4 I also do think it’s possible that Walker drops because he has a history of depression that was noted through his college career. Fair probably not but stuff like that is taken into consideration when drafting players

So so far we’re at Kneeland Edge (2nd-3rd) Boyd DT (4-7) Devonshire S (4-7) Walker WR (2-4) All middish to late round guys so far

Prob needs to be a 2025 first

A next years first round pick is seen as a 2nd round pick in the given year. Someone may give you a 2nd but you won’t get the 3rd as well

I disagree. They’re both slow accelerators that when they get up to top speed can take the top off a defense. Both need refined route running. Both make a lot of contested catches in tight coverage. Their athletic testing are actually very similar the only difference is Legette is heavier if that is what is classified as different

He had a really bad senior bowl I won’t argue that but he had a really good combine more than just athletic testing. I also feel that if you’re a big Legette fan then you should be a big Tez Walker fan. Basically the same size, Walker had better testing, and both win a lot of contested balls in tight coverage. I actually think that Walker made Maye look better than he is

Wait you think Keon Coleman is going to be a big slot? If I read that correctly I strongly disagree

But are they willing to drop down to 44 and miss out on their WR. If they are open to DT as the pick at 44 than I agree but if their looking solely at WR like a lot of people think 44 might be too big of a drop

The problem with this theory is both of the Bills 4th rounders are at the end of round 4 and do not have the combined value to get a 3rd. Their pics equal 84.5 points or the equivalent of pick 105

Good work we def are much more in lock step on your version 2 than we were on your version 1 and it appears you have much of the same idea as I do so looks like needs and boards are narrowing and coming into focus

No offense to this tweet but Jim Nagy hypes up every senior Bowl prospect in his tweets because he and his staff put together the rosters for the game and the higher their guys go the better they look. Obviously NFL personnel gives recommendations as well

If you think there is a large gap between Brian Thomas and the next guy whoever teams believe that is then trade up to the teens and give up your first next year. If you think there is a big drop off after Mitchell(who I believe most think is #5)than wait till Thomas is off the board and start trying to move up for Mitchell

If the Bills move up and give up their first next year to move up to the teens to get Brian Thomas they still have: 2nd,3rd, 4th, 4th(Davis comp pick), 5th, 5th(Floyd Comp pick), 6th, 6th(Basham trade). I think the Bills could live with that. I don’t think they want to dip beyond that
