Wagon Circler Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Thinking Tomlinson or Cann. +1. Don't think Cann will be there, so Tomlinson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frogger Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Donovan Smith. I think they'll want Bryce Petty but he'll be snagged late in the 1st or early in the 2nd. Agree, they'll want Petty but will end up with an offense lineman or corner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuoteTheRaven83 Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 I think Tomlinson goes late 1st or early 2nd. Unfortunately I think it'll be Petty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fadingpain Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 There are some other threads like this out there so if you feel a need to merge it go for it. The question is simple. Who will be the 1st player that the Bills select in this draft? This isn't who you want or a list or anything else. Who will it be? Not to change the topic, but I was just noting that the 1st player taken by the Bills in 1983 was.... Tony Hunter. TE. Notre Dame. That's with Jim Kelly and Dan Marino still on the board mind you!

That's with Jim Kelly and Dan Marino still on the board mind you! LOL On the episode of "30 for 30" about the 1983 draft, Bills' GM (at the time) Norm Pollom explained that they took Hunter at 12 because they knew they would be able to get either Marino or Kelly at 14 (they had two first round picks).

Kelly the Dog Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Not to change the topic, but I was just noting that the 1st player taken by the Bills in 1983 was.... Tony Hunter. TE. Notre Dame. That's with Jim Kelly and Dan Marino still on the board mind you! LOL It has been shown that they really didn't think Hunter was better than the QBs, only that they had the 12 and 14 pick, and were worried that Detroit behind them was going to take Hunter at 13 or another team would trade up for him. And the Bills had Kelly and Marino rated very closely. So if they took Hunter first they were assured of getting the TE and one of the QBs. It turned out they liked Kelly a tad more, as they had their choice. Edit: Wot beat me to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KOKBILLS Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Bills trade down a little and take the O-Lineman they like best when they finally pick in the late 2nd...Probably Cann... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bladiebla Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 I say they'll take their OT at 50 if he falls to them, if they are all gone they'll trade out this years 2nd rounder for a first rounder next year (plus a 7th rounder this year maybe).

The Jokeman Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 PJ Williams was in a mock I posted earlier. Yet I'd prefer Cann which means it likely will be Carl Davis or Nate Orchard or Byron Jones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CountryCletus Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Since when is OL a more glaring need than LB? Glenn, Incognito, Wood.... Then you have to fill two spots with Henderson, Kouandjo, Richardson, Williams, and that other chump.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dorkington Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 (edited) I know nothing of individual players.... so I'll just go through my thought process: Areas of weakness: OL LB depth TE depth Part of me feels like the Bills want to see who they have on the OL, we spent three picks there last year, we have Glenn, picked up Incognito, and get Williams back this year. So even though the position is weak, part of me wonders if the Bills are going to "waste" there, or not. So maybe we'll go LB, right now we only have two starters (I assume we're still a '4-3' team, just lined up a bit differently). One could assume that Spikes would be back as a 2 down back, but there's no reason why he wouldn't have been signed. For TE, Clay was a good pickup, but after that we have Gragg and Gray, and neither are players I have a lot of faith in. Logically, I'd say we go with BPA, with it weighted towards the three positions above. A stud guard would be a big get for us, but so would a LB or TE. /ramble Edited May 1, 2015 by Dorkington Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 (edited) Since when is OL a more glaring need than LB? Glenn, Incognito, Wood.... Then you have to fill two spots with Henderson, Kouandjo, Richardson, Williams, and that other chump.... I don't see lb as a glaring need because rex only plays 2 and we have 2 strong starters. We do need one or two for depth and numbers but I don't see going there this early. They need a starting OL imo. Not only do they not know what they will get from Kouandjio but they simply need more tackles. They need a OL who can play multiple positions.

Canadian Bills Fan Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Anyone surprised Lanken Tomlinson was drafted last night and not tonight? CBF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
910BillsFan Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Not exactly surprised but disappointed, was really hoping he'd be there at 50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 I missed the second half of the draft last night and am still catching up on who got picked. Noticed a bunch of OL started going though. So who is left for us to choose from if we wanted to go that direction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
