major Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 This draft sucks. Whaley knew what he was doing moving up last year to get Watkins. Name 5 no miss picks in this year's draft. There aren't any Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

major Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 People are arguing over who should be the number 1 pick: Mariota and Winston. Are they the best? If so, I rest my case. This draft sucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87168 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 (edited) I don't get this. opportunity is opportunity. QBs aren't the only players being drafted. Edited April 23, 2015 by 87168 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chandler#81 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Atta boy, Major! Absolutely NO ONE has had the guts to say this, but everyone knows it's so! Of course it will take 4-5 years to play out accurately, but there's simply no MUST HAVE player to be had! Not IMO, anyway. However, it's a great opportunity to draft potential at cheap rookie Cap #s to develop over time. I'm so damn thankful we're finally in a position to draft true BPA to aid the future vs 'must have Need'! For the 1st time in 2 decades, I won't be glued to the TV. In Whaley/College Scout team I trust! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragonborn10 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 The OP is right. This draft does suck. Watkins is a star already. Whaley should trade down and get an additional pick. This team needs depth at DE, LB, S, and CB. Everyone thinks OL is the major need and I would certainly be fine adding another RT in this draft. But defensive depth is the real need.

Rocky Landing Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 eric Ebron I had thought that everyone had speculated that it would have been Ebron, but then Whaley disputed that, and said it was going to be someone else? Be that as it may, the question would be: Which would we rather have-- Ebron, plus the 19th pick, or Watkins? Personally, I'd say Watkins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I know what the OP is saying though. I'm really glad we didnt draft my favorite QB, Russell Wilson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsCelticsAngelsBama Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Glad we made the pick, however, would we be picking 19th without Watkins ? Too many variables to know. Just glad we have Watkins rather than Ebron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky Landing Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 no, Whaley confirmed it would have been Ebron So... Ebron + #19, or Watkins? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 (edited) So... Ebron + #19, or Watkins? hindsight is 20/20 so now that I know we have Clay at TE i would not have gone Ebron BUT I also doubt we would be picking this low without Sammy on the team last year, it would have been a higher pick. I'm happy with how it all turned out in the end. Edited April 24, 2015 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prickly Pete Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 (edited) This draft sucks. Whaley knew what he was doing moving up last year to get Watkins. Name 5 no miss picks in this year's draft. There aren't any I'm happy with Watkins (obviously), but if Whaley REALLY knew what he was doing, he would have traded the 2015 1st pick to get an extra first pick in the 2014 draft (the deep draft, that everyone was saying had a wealth of "1st round talent, available in the 2nd"). I won't mention Odell Beckham... Edited April 24, 2015 by HoF Watkins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't mention Odell Beckham... why on earth do you think a GM from another team would have been stupid enough to make that trade? "If Whaley REALLY knew what he was doing" - come on. Do you actually think the Bills scouting dept was the only one who knew this draft wasn't as good as 2014?
