Buffalo Barbarian Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) Love those guys but only if we don't get a QB. Edited February 25, 2018 by Buffalo Barbarian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerJ Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 (edited) Before Wood was forced to retire by his neck injury, there was zero mention of the Bills drafting Price. I don't think Price would be a bad pick, but with Ryan Groy ready to step in to a starting role at center (the Bills are paying him like a starter) it is hardly the position of greatest need for the Bills. I think that it is this mistaken perception of desperate need that is driving most of the national hype surrounding Price to Buffalo. I just want to shake these guys and tell them, "The Bills just are not that desperate at center." What about a really good WR, or a MLB with the athleticism to really make the McDermott defense click. It wouldn't even be a terrible idea to double up on defensive tackles in the first round (not to even mention QB). If I were GM, (be glad that's not the case) I would be more inclined to look for a backup interior offensive lineman with upside a little later in the draft. I also thought it was a little odd that Reuter referred to both Kyle Williams and Harrison Phillips as nose tackles. I see both of them as one gap 3 tech guys who are decent at stopping the run with a good nose tackle next to them, but who's real strength is creating disruption in the backfield with initial quickness and superior hand fighting technique. Am I wrong? Edited February 26, 2018 by TigerJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsredneck1 Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 i'd rather have vita vea but phillipps and jewel would maybe work, especially with 2-3rd rd. picks....after rudolph and vea at 21/22 i would consider that a haul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I wrong? Kyle Williams best fit is definitely as a penetrating 3 tech but he has played the nose for us in his career... quite effectively too... but he was more of a 1 gap penetrating NT, not a 2 gap space eater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndirish1978 Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Everyone mocking a C to us can be immediately discounted as knowing anything about the team. These guys just look at a spreadsheet of pluses and minuses and replace minuses with rookies without looking at the backups. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always pick my favorite QB prospect for the Bills and make it my profile pic during draft season. Last year I had Watson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PIZ Posted February 26, 2018 Author Share Posted February 26, 2018 I thought so. I like him too. He would allow us to keep our 2 first rounders, but I wonder if he'll be there in round 2 when the Bills pick. 18 minutes ago, billspro said: Mike White.
