This is why I think there will be at least six WRs drafted tomorrow …

Bears don’t have a second this year, so I suppose they could be tempted by 28 and 60 plus the Vikings’ second next year…

Thank you. No one in the top 10 is interested in moving to 28, and the Bills’ first next year is a devalued asset because the assumption is that it too will be a late pick. A move up to the mid-teens is possible, but that’s about it. Although I do think it’s possible that Odunze slides to that part of the draft…

I'm not...

I can't wait to watch the Patriots draft him third overall...

The Dolphins have so many other dire needs, they would be insane to take a WR at 21...

I love Odunze, and he seems Billsy (in a good way) but I don’t think he goes in the top 10 like most here assume. I could see the Bills trying to get him if he makes it to 12….

But how we gonna compete without Jordan Phillips and Latavius Murray???? I’m telling you, we’re doooomed!

Good for you

Do you think the Bills “didn’t have a chance” this past year? For most of the season they had the second or third best odds to win the Super Bowl…

It's absolutely correct. The Bills are not in rebuilding mode now and they won't be until Josh Allen is gone or substantially diminished. NE was never "rebuilding" with Brady, KC has never rebuilt with Mahomes, GB never "rebuilt" with Rodgers, etc...

Those kind of guys are replaced by NFL teams every year with no drop off in performance. That’s why they are called JAGS…🤣

So you really think we'll miss Gabe Davis, Dane Jackson and Tim Settle???? You must be the only one on this board who thinks so. Dooooomed! Mitch Morse was a good center but he was getting old, and with most teams not using a nose tackle, center is probably the most de-valued position there is, maybe even more than running back. There no reason Connor McGovern can't be a perfectly fine replacement. I'm not sure who the #2 RB is that you're referring to...oh wait, Latavius Murray????? How will we ever survive without him???? 😃 Please tell me you're not "concerned" about safety...Hyde and Poyer's play fell off considerably last year and there are still a number of NFL starting safeties from last year available as free agents. And of course at least two of our 10 draft picks are sure to be safeties... These types of departures are typical of every NFL team every year...The Chiefs this year had a grand total of three starters left from the 2020 Super Bowl championship team. Your level of "sky is falling" hysteria about losing a bunch of JAGs is absolutely hilarious. And to answer your last absurd comment, the Patriots never had a "re-build" in the Brady era. They won the AFCE 18 out of 20 years and made the playoffs every year except when Brady tore his ACL. They were Super Bowl contenders every year, while turning over their roster at almost the same rate as the Chiefs...

I don’t think you read anything I wrote. Where did I say the Bills don’t need difference makers? I said they are not rebuilding and will contend for a championship, just like they have the last four years.

We lost one key player, a guy who is 31 and whose production fell off a cliff the last 10 games of the season. Every NFL team loses multiple starters every year, to trades, free agency or retirement. FFS, you don’t even know who they’re going to add in the draft, and free agency isn’t over! A team with prime Josh Allen is never in rebuilding mode…never. I fully expect the Bills to be better in 2024 than they were last year.

Sure, a team with Josh Allen in his prime, a coach going into his eighth year with the team, and a veteran roster is "rebuilding"...yeah, OK

They’ll only drop back into the second if there are a few guys they’d be more or less equally happy with. If Beane really likes Leggette, he’ll take him at 28…he won’t risk losing him to KC or some other team. That’s not the way he operates.

If we’re talking about day 3 RBs, I have to mention Bucky Irving (U of Oregon), even though he’s probably not a fit for the Bills. Undersized, but extremely shifty and quick; always makes the first tackler miss. Definitely not a pile-mover, but very productive at Oregon (almost 1700 yards from scrimmage in 2023) and maybe the best pass-catching back in the draft. Reminds me of a slightly faster Devin Singletary…

I hate to break the news to you, but the fourth round takes place on day 3 of the NFL draft.

He’s not the only one. I’ve seen at least two others rank Thomas ahead of Adunze and one guy rank him ahead of MHJ.

Quite a few draft analysts have Thomas ranked ahead of one or more of the "Big 3". It's not inconceivable that he could be drafted in the top 10...

So a guy who absolutely abused SEC defensive backs this year “is not ready to play against NFL defenses”?? Yeah, ok.

Good point
