Jamie Nails Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 I really thought Prescott was our guy in the 4th and we lost out on him by a few picks. This type of commentary from "sources" after we draft Jones isn't surprising, however. In the draft, the Bills always get their man and great value.

You're right you can't take this stuff straight at face value. But what do you base the Prescott theory on? They spent a lot of time on Jones pre-draft. And it's not like the source is saying that Jones was a steal or that they had him with a 2nd round grade. All of these things sound very plausible to me.

GunnerBill Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Doesn't surprise me on the running back. I could only us going that way there if he was sticking out at the top of our board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to know that the Bills were considering Prescott and not Hackenburg or Hogan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Formerly Allan in MD Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Whaley is a fine GM, no matter what others on the board say. He knew he had to move up to get Ragland and pulled it off. It's just unfortunate that he couldn't come up with a solid OL prospect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_MacDonald Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Awesome thanks. Finding cool stuff like this is why I come to this board. Appreciate it Totally agree.

CajunBillsBacker Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 I know one thing, we got two absolute animals with Lawson and Ragland. Ragland will lead this defense for 10 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Vader Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Dude, you seemed pretty happy about Jones on TV! Lol, great cameo btw. LOL, thanks. You should have seen me after the Cowboys picked Prescott. One of the Draft Day 3 Diehards, who is a Cowboys fan, had said how much he wanted Prescott, and I shared that sentiment. When the pick was announced, he was ecstatic, and I was pissed. Still I knew that Jones was available, and I knew the Bills liked him, so I was still happy with the pick, but I would have gone ballistic, if we'd gotten Prescott.

Augie Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 I get why every team "got the guy we wanted", but I'm fascinated with little things like this. Any glimpse into what teams are really thinking is a rare treat, and greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atlbillsfan1975 Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 What if this Zimmer kid becomes the next Kyle. Similar size. And seem more the agile penetrating interior guy. Yes he is white. Whenever someone comes from a small school they must dominate the competition. Zimmer did that. 13 sacks for an interior lineman. Hope this kid is the type that elevates himself to his level of competition and can adjust to the speed and power needed in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 The RB WIlliams pick is exactly the type of selection that ends up working out big time in the end...... I know he did not fit a need...but that is exactly why he end up being a big time stud. He didnt fit a need and he was so good we took him anyway. AND....he really seems to fit Roman's offense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
