Yeah, the Bills aren't going for that. If he starts a holdout that even keeps him out for TC and most of the Preseason, I think he's gone. They'll take whatever they can get for him at that point and send him packing. They will not allow a RB to become a distraction. We got rid of a WR last year who was a constant thorn, one that all of the outside heads said this offense couldn't make it without, then JA17 wins MVP. Cook will be treated the same if he becomes a problem as well.
A couple of 1-Tech's (Priority #1 imo, one early), a 3-Tech, a couple CB's (Priority #2 imo, one early), a WR (a speedy WR who can stretch the defense), a DE. That's 6 picks there.
Here is his Combine profile. It says he basically doesn't attack the run game consistently at this point, but he can be effective from sideline to sideline.

It's crazy that the Eagles are at #12 with Hurts, Barkley, Brown, Smith, Goedert, Lane Johnson, Landon Dickerson, and Jordan Mailata all getting BIG $$$.
We find ourselves in need of an infusion of young talent across the board. Too much to push all of our chips onto the table for any one player that we would get from this draft.
This list says we met with Collins.

It is possible the first list I posted is incomplete though because I think they get 30 meetings at the Combine. The first list only has 24. There are 30 listed on this link. I will update the original post to include the ones I missed.
