RK_BillsFan Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 (edited) Where the heck is all the mock draft stuff? I know last year I posted one a bit early, but I mean it feels like theres no posts this year. Used Fanspeaks draft simulator, and using their rankings I had some really hard choices to make. Came out with this and while I would have loved to pick up another corner/safety or possible OT as we swing someone inside to guard, since I am no where near skilled enough to make those kind of deductions on current player skills for the team I was pretty happy with this outcome. Let me know what you guys think (Also Maxx Williams goes to use as the second TE off the board which I feel is completely unreasonable but I'll take it on draft day every day of the week) 50: R2P18 TE MAXX WILLIAMS MINNESOTA 81: R3P17 G JEREMIAH POUTASI UTAH 155: R5P19 TE TYLER KROFT RUTGERS 188: R6P12 ILB BRYCE HAGER BAYLOR 194: R6P18 DT TYELER DAVISON FRESNO STATE 234: R7P17 QB CODY FAJARDONEVADA So would love feed back, maybe we can get a player ranking going for who we would realistically take in each pick. Personally I love the idea of replacing Tool Time with Kap 2.0 Edited April 12, 2015 by RK_BillsFan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clemson Bills Fan Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 First post after following TBD for years... Enjoy doing the drafts. Using Drafttek (in favor of their mock drafts) I came out with 50: R2P18 TE CLIVE WALFORD MIAMI (FL) 81: R3P17 G ALI MARPET HOBART 155: R5P19 OLB ZACH HODGES HARVARD 188: R6P12 S CLAYTON GEATHERS CENTRAL FLORIDA 194: R6P18 QB SEAN MANNION OREGON ST 234: R7P17 WR J.J. NELSON UAB I would like Maxx to drop as well, but with mine I was happy taking Walford in the second. Taking a late round flier on a QB seems like a good idea, and I've always been partial to Mannion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmotionallyUnstable Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 I think lack of a first round pick has deterred people from mocks. But the 50th and 81st picks have been discussed thoroughly in other threads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloFan68 Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Clemson - Great draft, it would be awesome to get these guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RK_BillsFan Posted April 12, 2015 Author Share Posted April 12, 2015 Clemson, I agree I don't think maxx will be there for us at 50 but would be ecstatic if he was. Also Ali in the second round would be great. I honestly don't think we really need another corner or safety considering how many we have already, although Rex loves having lots of them. I do think we need a lb in the draft although not as big a need since at times Mario Williams and Jerry Hughes will probably line up that way. I do however really feel that we need a dt to add as depth and as a possible heir to kyle Williams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaninATL Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 If Laken Tomlinson from Duke is available @ #50 I'd pull the trigger w/out reservation - he is the highest rated pure guard in several draft boards Height: 6-3. Weight: 323. Projected 40 Time: 5.18. Projected Round (2015): 2-3. 3/21/15: Tomlinson blocked well for Duke in 2014. He is a strong run-blocker who has to improve his pass protection for the NFL. Sources have said that after a slow start to the season, Tomlinson was very good in the second half of the year. He also had a strong week at the Senior Bowl. Some teams have graded Tomlinson in the third round, but believe the organization that likes him enough to draft him might pull the trigger in Round 2.

Webster Guy Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 This is always such a crap shoot because everyone seems to evaluate talent differently and even the best evaluators are frequently wrong. I will be amazed if Walter gets a single pick correct for the Bills. The only one that I see us getting is Marpet from Hobart. We just seem like the perfect team for a local d3 guy who could be a day 1 starter at a position of need for us. Freddy said he has given him his number and reached out to support the guy. I hope we take a shot at him if he's there in the 3rd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDIGGZ Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 I think we go OT or OG at 50. I don't think any of the top TE's will fit what we want to do. I think we will get a better blocking TE later in the draft. I think any news about QB or TE at 50 is just a smokescreen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we're looking at BPA for the most part, but I'd be surprised if either of our first 2 picks were anything other than OL, ILB, or S unless someone starts falling hard.

....lybob Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 To me the decision the Bills will have to make and live with at pick 50 is do you go with that OG who you think has a 90% chance of starting for you this year or do you go with the inevitable guy you have rated at 26 but is there for you at 50 and risk having no OGs at 81 who you see as a starter.

I was really impressed with him during Senior Bowl week, and I think he would make a perfect RT. Only problem is that I don't see him playing OG in the NFL. Clive Walford in the 2nd would have me doing back flips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
