  1. Good for David Walker watched him live at a game this year and he is undersized but he's a bull in a china shop. Not a fit for the Bills but excited to see him go fairly high for a guy who is undersized.

     

     

    Another guy I really like that is still on the board  is TE Oronde Gadsden from Syracuse. If he gets out of the 4th I'll be pretty surprised.

    The most obvious spot to improve on the 53 is the one occupied by Baylon Spector, and a random 5th-rounder is as like to be a huge upgrade as not.

     

    But it won't be Barrett Carter. Paul is still on the board right?

     

    Paul is still on the board yup, I really like Teddye Buchannan from Cal, and Dolac if you want the local guy.

    The upshot is, everyone wanting Bills to use their 5th round cache to improve other picks, they did that.

     

    Stutsman is another RAS guy going to the Saints

     

    Wouldn't surprise me if they move up in the 5th as well to get a player they like. Got the 2 6th rounder and 2 5th rounders. Hopefully thats where they target a WR haha.

     

    I do think we are done for the DL in this draft but man I guess I could be wrong and they could take another DE haha.

  4. I find it funny that both Morgan and Schoen haven't really followed Beane's philosophy. I get that guys have their own opinions about players but besides that first year where Schoen and Beane were competing for prospects solely because thats who Schoen scouted they haven't really taken the same types of players.

    His strengths, from NFL Draft Buzz, seem to indicate he is not a "horrendous athlete" or "not a very good football player"

     

    --Rare blend of mass and mobility for his size - shows shocking lateral quickness when working down the line and can change direction without losing power or balance

    --Natural power to stack and shed single blocks in the run game, using his 6'7" frame and heavy hands to control offensive linemen before violently disengaging

    --Creates instant interior push with his bull rush, showing the ability to walk back centers and guards while keeping his feet churning through contact

    --Surprising short-area quickness allows him to shoot gaps and disrupt plays in the backfield before blockers can properly engage

    --Strong upper body and active hands help him defeat blocks both as a run defender and pass rusher - has shown an effective swim move

    --Takes away multiple gaps with his sheer size and length, forcing runners to bounce outside where his deceptive mobility allows him to make plays

    --Shows flashes of dominant potential when fresh, with the raw power to simply overwhelm offensive linemen who don't match his physical traits

    --Three-year starter in the SEC who has proven he can hold up against elite competition while facing constant double teams

     

    And to be even handed, what they consider his weaknesses:

     

    --Conditioning is a major concern - tends to wear down quickly and becomes much less effective in longer drives or when asked to chase plays

    --Consistently plays with high pad level, negating his natural power and making him vulnerable against double teams and combo blocks

    --Initial burst off the snap is inconsistent, sometimes appearing sluggish and allowing offensive linemen to establish position before he's fully engaged

    --Hand placement in pass rush needs refinement - too often makes contact without a clear plan, leading to stalemates even against single blocks

    --Motor runs hot and cold throughout games, showing concerning lapses in effort when fatigued or trailing offensive plays

     

     

    Glad you posted that, so that I went to find out more about what others say. 

     

    The strengths listed really contradict the horrible athlete thing and how poor of a football player he is.

     

    While the weak areas are much less significant, and are things the can be fixed with coaching and mentors..

     

    He certainly seems like the kind of player that McBeane may think they can do very good things with..

     

     

     

     

     


    Deone Walker is on my do not draft list

    I’d like to add that you might end up retail shopping if you recite our draft picks backwards.

     

    Y’know, you might… Landon TJ Max.

     

    I’ll see myself out.


    I laughed with a so stupid behind it

    I trade Cook after the draft. Bit we NEED one of those WR.


    I don’t disagree with the WR at all and believe we will take 1 and maybe 2 here on Day 3. I don’t think a Cook trade is in play. I think he’s here next year. Cook holding out half the year would only damage his value in Free Agency. If he wants the huge bag from the Bills or another team he’s going to have to do it again for another season
