Franklin is the only one of those I have seen any of - mainly while watching his running mate - he has some ability as a Z that is gonna be used in the middle of the field. I thought he was probably a late day 3 / priority UDFA guy based ob that limited exposure. Where do you have him?
Oh I see him as late round priority guy too. I just like his production.
I saw Powell live this past year. Smaller back probably a UDFA but I could see him being a guy that excels in preseason and people are like who is that guy.
Allen is a great pass catcher and good pass blocker but his knock was his speed and him not running scares me
I just think Bartholemew is going to be a good pro. I saw him play a game in HS when he was a 3 star recruit. Went to Buffalo and then Pitt. Just feel there is untapped potential there.
Nash Jones would probably be the guy I would watch if I were you. Played tackle but is a guard in the NFL. Think he has a shot to go round 4 and has met with a ton of NFL teams.

I’m gonna get on you about Rosengarten a bit because I believe you had him as 4th round grade and I believe I told you he was going to go in round 2 and you fought me on it.

I have that same feeling. 6'3 200 4:30 40 36.5" vertical. Willing blocker, secure tackling and ball hawk ability. Former receiver and track record holder. Lack of experience yes, but one more year in college probably gets him mid 1st...with this class anyway.
I always love posing these questions. If Porter has all of these traits, and I’m not disagreeing with you per se, Athleticism, willing tackler, scheme versatile, stats to back it up. You think he’s a day 1 starter, why do you believe that he will be available at 56 or 62 in an incredibly weak draft.
These are the same questions I asked last year when people were like we need a 6’4 200 pound 4.3 sure handed WR at 30 last year. Those perfect prospects don’t grow on trees and they sure don’t last to pick 28, 30, 56, or 62 especially in what you defined as a weaker class.
So one of two things is true. He’s either not going to last until 56, or he’s a more flawed prospect than you believe. I happen to think he doesn’t make it to 56 because of what you said but I’d like your opinion on this

Yea I know he has a good story, but we have drafted CBs in the first round twice and both times they have been very clean medically. I won’t hate the Revel pick but just think for CB they err on the side of caution medically
I think your better argument is he’s 24 and the Bills typically take younger(21 or under) players in the first round because of upside. The only guy they took that old was Kincaid. He’s also not a polished 24 -

I don’t think the Bills will take Revel, Hairston or Morrison because of past injuries. Porter probably is older than they would like. I think it’ll be Amos or Thomas. Thomas will probably still be there round 2.
I disagree on Revel. Yes he has the knee but the Bills know they are good, even if Revel isn’t his old self early in the year the Bills can still win a lot of games regardless.
The Bills are very big on character. I told people this last year when everyone was shunning Coleman as a pick and how the Bills will love Coleman as a person. I think the same thing could be said about Revel. All reports are he’s a stand up guy that comes from a good family.
Failed school in HS , went to JUCO and thought his career was over, went to the ECU camp while working full time at Amazon and impressed so much that ECU offered him with the contingency he got his grades up at JUCO. He got his grades up and bigger schools started offering but he stuck with ECU because they were the ones who gave him a shot to get out of working a normal job the rest of his life. Then he baled out and was off to a great start before blowing out his knee. He fits the Bills character MO to a tee

Amos is literally a perfect fit for a McDermott system. I see him being the guy they target followed by Revel. They prob will fall in love with a player like Revels character if you know the story on him

WITH THE 41st Pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, THE CHICAGO BEARS Select:
MASON TAYLOR TE LOUISIANA STATE UNIVERSITY
Why: The GM is trying to give Ben Johnson the same offensive pieces he had in Detroit by first adding Omarion Hampton, following it up with a LT to block for franchise QB Caleb Williams, and now adding Mason Taylor to the mix as the "Sam Laporta" of Ben Johnson's offense. I have always had Taylor as my clear # 3 TE and it wouldn't surprise me if you look back in 3 years and he is the best one to come out of this draft. Taylor has great hands and great pedigree as a pass catcher and with Thibodeaux being added via trade, the need for an edge rusher was lessened. The Bears also have picks 65 acquired via trade with the Giants and their original pick #72 to continue adding pieces to this football team.
@section122 and the NY Jets are on the clock

The Bears will consider moving down from # 41 if anyone is interested.

WITH THE 39TH Pick in the 2025 NFL DRAFT, THE CHICAGO BEARS SELECT:
Josh Conerly OT University of Oregon
Analysis: After trading down and getting Hampton to end the first round, the Bears turn around and get their future franchise LT at pick 39 after missing out on Josh Simmons. Conerly fits the same mold as Simmons, an uber athletic offensive tackle that is just scratching the surface of his development as he is still just a 21 year old prospect. Conerly can slide right into the Left Tackle role while this moves Braxton Jones into a swing tackle role which he seems better suited for.
@Alphadawg7 and the New Orleans Saints are on the clock

I put Edge above Milanos replacement. Isnt Dorian Milano's replacement? Eddie O, Dorian, Matt, Bernard, Joe Buffalo, Spector- that is 6 returning LB. Not much room for another IMO. Shaun Dolac is the the LB id like to add
I know people love the story but I do not think that either Ulofoshio, Joe, or Spector are any sort of lock for this roster. I think a mid round LB can unseat any of those 3.

The runningback depth is so good in this draft, I wasn’t going to rush one. Too much value at other positions. Also, our WR core has been in shambles for years.
I do think Higgins is going to go around where the Browns took him. Might even slip onto round 1 but more likely the first 5-10 picks of round 2 -

The Cleveland Browns select Jayden Higgins, WR, Iowa St.
This has been a very lucky draft for us so long. First, Ward falls into our lap, and now Higgins falls to the 2nd round, who was our third ranked WR. Higgins has the size, speed, and production we believe will translate to the NFL and gives Ward time to build chemistry early.
The Eagles @Mike in Horseheads are on the clock.
I moved up solely because I thought Hampton was a possibility at your pick. If the Giants hadn’t offered a deal, I probably would have taken Hampton at 10.
My goal was to trade 34 to either 28 or 30 and get Simmons because I knew the Chiefs would take him. Then I was worried you would take Hampton at 33 hence me jumping you at 32 . If my trade went through with the Bills, I then would have traded 39 to the Eagles and gotten both Simmons and Hampton who are much higher in my top 100. Hampton has a true first round grade and Simmons might be my first or 2nd guy with a 2nd round grade. I only have 17 first round grades this year

The KC Theifs select Josh Simmons OT- Ohio St.
Obvious massive need still imo. Watching lots of niner games, I’m of the belief that Jaylon Moore is a backup caliber LT.
I hope this doesn’t happen irl
I was trying to trade up to get Simmons in front of you, I figured you wouldn’t move off it but thought I’d try. He’s my # 1 true LT and number 2 Tackle in the draft behind Membou, and think I have him at 19 overall in my top 100. He would have been who I took at 30 if the Bills would have traded with meWith that said there is a trade!!! The Chicago Bears trade pick 34 and a 2026 4th rounder to the Eagles for the 32nd pick.
WITH THE 32nd pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, The Chicago Bears Select:

Bills fans spoiled my master plan as the Bears GM typical lol. I was going to try to trade with Detroit but he was too quick and so was Washington

yea the best DTs have early sack production in college or crush the 10 or 40 splits - Grant didnt do either to the degree I would like. Would like Landon Jackson quite a bit haha but I do like to watch the world burn tooIt’s 100% setting up for a non Grant board meltdown pick with him on the board. It will really meltdown if the Chiefs take him at 31

1. Don't trade with KC
2. Take BPA on defense - DT, DE, or CB
I was trying to screw said Chiefs but Bills fans didn’t want to let it happen. Remember this when you chastise the Bills organization for the moves they make with the Chiefs because you just didn’t same thing lol. I suppose the Chiefs could have taken Grant.
Im not at my comp but I think Amos is my highest ranked Defensive player but we’re ineligible to take him. I’d probably take Revel here if no trade down scenario presented itself

9 minutes ago, LEBills said:
Grant is overrated imo. Trade down and you can get a better DT later.
I agree with this. I don’t think Grant goes in the first round to be honest. Gonna be a lot of Bills fans angry when he’s there at 30 and they draft CB or someone like Landon Jackson instead-

This vote seems pretty decisive.
Yea, I’m the guy with the trade offer at 27 and I’m irritated about it lol but I don’t think I’m catching the Grant train. I don’t think I’m getting 40 votes in the next 7 hours to win. Might as well call it a day to keep this moving-

Bills CB draft choice
in The Stadium Wall
Posted
I think they wouldn’t have to wait till 2026. What I’m saying is that the Bills in the 2025 regular season are going to win the vast majority of their games and they can do that with Jackson, another vet, or a mid round draft pick.
Revel by all reports is going to be ready for training camp but if the Bills want to work him in slowly(which they have a history of doing) than they can afford to have Revel practice and learn and be a backup for the first half of the season while his knee continues to get stronger.
I know that’s not a popular opinion for a first round pick around here but they need their guys ready for the playoffs more than week 1. We know this team is good
