BillsFan17 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 It's crazy how closely his combine numbers profile to Davis. Reddick is just a few pounds heavier and Davis was just a few ticks faster on the 20 yard shuttle, otherwise it's basically a mirror image. The difference being, one played safety in college and transitioned into more of a LB role. Reddick is a guy who played as an edge mostly who is transitioning to LB.

jeffismagic Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I thought the Bills were installing McDermott's defense and not Leslie Frazier's Tampa 2? If we go Tampa 2 then the WLB becomes much more important than if we are running McDermott's D he ran in Carolina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie Muellers Ghost Posted April 18, 2017 Author Share Posted April 18, 2017 Sal .C mentioned today odds of WR & S seem to be fading @10 for the Bills in his estimate. Leaving corner,LB, QB most likely or a wild card like Tackle or Howard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Never underestimate the Bills taking a cornerback in the first round. It's what they do. It is possible....I am hoping because of the depth of the position in this draft that it doesnt happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaCrispy Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 (edited) IMO, Reddick would absolutely not be a reach @ 10. It wouldn't surprise me if he's gone sooner. totally agree with this...i think people are waaaaay underestimating this kid and i feel come draft day, a lot of people will be surprised how soon he is picked...if he is there at 10 i take him...doubt he will be there if the bills trade back....reminds me too much of Von Miller, but more violent....pass rushers like him are hard to come by.

jeffismagic Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 If we take Reddick does that mean we are playing Tampa 2? Seems like overpayment if we are running McD's Carolina scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsCelticsAngelsBama Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 I think he would definitely be a possibility if we trade down. But if we stay at #10 and take him, odds are we are bypassing a much higher rated prospect (at least based on general consensus). My biggest concern would be the position change. He played more of a DE/OLB pass rusher at Temple, than a traditional Will/Weakside Linebacker. Exactly. Just say no Doug. Can't take the 20th-35th guy with the 10th pick. Better to trade back for scraps and take him than to take a big question mark @#10 who played in a lesser conference and would have to make a position change. Watch a full game of his, not just highlights. Not worthy of #10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFan17 Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Yea I'm not very enthusiastic about that list but what do I know?Us bills fans as a whole have been burned so many times, it's easy for us to be cautious... However, when I see the injury history associated with Ross and more recently Davis, considering our draft history. As far as Howard, never ever take a TE that high, especially one you have to make excuses for. I dont want to hear how it was Bama fault he wasn't used enough. Heard a lot of the same with Vernon Davis who was more productive at Maryland, but everyone blamed the lack of big time production on the program. That Davis was far to athletic to not take it to the next level at the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we go Tampa 2 then the WLB becomes much more important than if we are running McDermott's D he ran in Carolina. McDermott's D in Carolina was based off zone with fast,covering Lb'ers. It's a definite position of need,regardless of "scheme". Edited April 19, 2017 by BuffAlone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Webster Guy Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 According to collinsworths mock, Adams will be there at 10 because Cleveland is trading up their 12th with Tennessee to grab a QB before the Jets do. If Adams is there, McDermott is a happy guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would argue that the most money spent in McD's scheme should be front 4 and the Mike lb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offsides#76FredSmerlas Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Not sure at 10, but if we can get someone to dance and move back to around 16 to 18, another second at least in hand and Reddick would be ok with me. We desperately need a WLB, just nor sure if that is worth the pick at 10. +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
