Astrobot Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 http://billsmafia.com/2017/09/21/bills-positional-priorities-september-edition/ In my first article for BillsMafia Blog, I did what I used to do here every month: Realign the Bills' positional needs to submit to DraftTek. Hope you give it a read, and that you'll comment there or below. Thanks! Astro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blokestradamus Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 That Kouandjio comment Good to have you on board at the blog, Dean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillyG Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 That was an awesome read. Thank you. My only disagreement is that I don't see Beane putting value on a WR to draft him with our first 1st rounder. That pick should be fairly high if we can't work the offense out. I believe that TE will be a priority next off season as well as Clay still has 14 games of injuries to pile up this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAJBobby Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Got to have QB the first priority Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southern Bills Fan Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Got to have QB the first priority Can't wait until we actually do change QB's just to see who your next insane crusade will be against. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Costa Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Nice read. Awesome to have 6 or 7 picks in the top 💯. Virtually impossible to figure out in which direction we go pick by pick. Hope we can get the QB we want without moving up!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigK14094 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Got to have QB the first priority I watched Rosen on the UCLA game last weekend, and he is accurate and smart. Not opposed to getting him...haven't seen some of the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gugny Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Thanks, as always, Astro. With regard to your assessment of the college QBs - (admittedly, I'm stealing this from Golic after listening this morning) - going strictly by stats (good or bad) isn't really answering whether a QB can be successful in the NFL - mainly due to the talent (or lack thereof) surrounding them. We've seen college QBs with phenomenal statistics completely bomb in the NFL; and we've seen college QBs with mediocre statistics do well. Rather than focusing on stats, we need to be looking for skills (pocket presence, decision-making, not staring down receivers). I would rather see the Bills' first pick be the best QB available.

Yeah, I would be surprised and disappointed if qb isn't addressed first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 QB, QB, QB, oh and QB. we need a QB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAJBobby Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Can't wait until we actually do change QB's just to see who your next insane crusade will be against. What does this have anything to do with your mythical crusade. Fact QB most important position in football. Unless you have one it ALWAYS should be your first priority. Now go back over to TSW if you want to cry about TT this is draft and college talk I watched Rosen on the UCLA game last weekend, and he is accurate and smart. Not opposed to getting him...haven't seen some of the others. Like Rosen alot. Like Darnold at this point better even with his weird throwing motion. Coming around on Rudolph more every week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Vader Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Great write-up Astro. Funny stuff about Kouandjio. With regards to your comments about Dareus and a probable need at DT, I firmly believe that McDermott/Beane will pursue Star Lotuleilei in free agency. The Panthers gave a contract extension to Kawaan Short, and they used their first round pick in 2016 to take Vernon Butler. So I expect them to let Lotuleilei walk, and McDermott will be there to pick him up. Who knows, maybe they'll draft his brother too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
