The Chiefs have won the last two Super Bowls during their “transition”, so no, there is no reason for diminished expectations as long as 17 is behind center…

But he did move to #33, so... I suppose Coleman was their guy, but if that's the case, why move down from 28? When KC called, did Beane ask them who they were going to take? And if so, how did he know that the teams drafting 29-31 weren't going to take him (SF, for example, ended up taking a different WR)? Did Carolina tell Beane who they were going to take at 32 if he made the trade?...I always wonder how much is known about who other teams are going to select and how it is known.

Hardly

“Everyone knows…”🤣🤣🤣🤣 There is zero evidence—and I mean zero—that Harrison Jr runs a faster 40 than Coleman, and I’ll also say that, like Coleman, MHJ is not really known for his separation…

So, no answer?

What was MHJ’s 40 time?

This is why MHJ did not run the 40 in Indy (or at his pro day). Even though his top speed is impressive, I believe his 40 time would have been comparable to Coleman’s…

I would have thought this was a pipe dream a week ago, but the Niners just drafted WRs with their 1st and 4th round picks…something must be up. I expect any deal would involve the second we got in the Diggs deal…Aiyuk is absolutely an elite talent.

All the same nonsense we heard when Josh Allen was drafted…

Interestingly, the guy the Bills drafted has similar measurables to Mailata…

Like Jordan Mailata??

Makes sense

Any idea on the compensation? Can’t be much…

Is it just me, or are there fewer small school guys being picked in the draft this year? Teams like Georgia and Washington have pretty much every starter drafted now.

Three-year OL starter for Georgia in the fifth round…nothing not to like about that.

Doesn’t matter…RBs don’t get re-signed anyway. We need him for 3-4 years max.

Maybe, but what Diggs did in the last 10 games of 2023 is easily replaceable and I’m pretty sure Samuel is up to that particular task. Hell, whoever they draft today might be up to it…

Interesting…it was reported that he did not run the 40 at his pro day

Anyone watch Coleman’s Michigan State film? Most of the comments here are based on this past season at fsu

Mitchell had multiple red flags…otherwise he would not have lasted at long as he did. I’m guessing he was off Beane’s board entirely.

Yeah, not sure why Coleman isn’t being comped more to Nakua…seems plausible

Why wouldn’t the Bills have Coleman return punts? It’s not like they have anyone else who can do it, although Shakir did manage to field a few last year…

It will be absolutely fair to compare Coleman to Worthy and Leggette over the next few years…guys Beane passed on at the same position. And if Worthy turns out to be a serious weapon that helps the Chiefs eliminate us again…heaven help us.

I had a feeling about a month ago that Coleman was going to be our pick, and I’m fine with it. He’s a great athlete, good size, an absolute baller. He’s going to be in the league a long time. It’s becoming clear that—at least with their premium picks—the Bills want younger players, with no injury history and no character concerns. They are not going to gamble on guys like AD Mitchell or Jermaine Burton…just not who they are as a franchise.
