LabattBlue Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 (edited) Surprised he fell this far. Not the greatest need, but with Kyle nearing retirement, solid pick. Edited April 28, 2018 by LabattBlue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoSaint Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 1 hour ago, starrymessenger said: Clearly projects as a very good run defender at the next level. As a pass rusher he can dial up the area code but does not finish the way you would like. For now and unless he develops this aspect of his game he is a two down rotational DT who may not see the field much on passing downs. He should be a better run defender than Kyle but won't be as good getting after the passer in all likelihood. If he could do that he'd be gone first half of the first. He has great intangibles and a high motor. He's absolutely a quality player, the kind that can be expected to play a long time in the league. An excellent pick at 96. Hitting on players like this in the mid-later rounds speaks well of what the Bills braintrust and their assistants are doing. Getting him where they did also involves a little luck to be sure but clearly there is more than luck involved. Getting their guy and saving 22 which they then turn into Edmunds is a master stroke by Beane IMO. Edmunds is a top 5-10 talent with stratospheric upside. Never thought we would land him. That was my impression of him and why I was asking about everyone going straight to KW for a comparison. Both white, hardworking and humble but on the field it seems there’s a difference in play with strength/leverage vs quickness/agility. That’s not to say either guy sucks at the other skill set but that they seem more like complimentary skill sets than duplicating the same. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can never have enough bodies on the line. Besides, I don't think Kyle is going to play that many snaps this year and Phillips >> Washington. I wouldn't be surprised if they try to ship Adolphus for a late pick as it was reported they were trying to do last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyDays Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 3 hours ago, Doc said: Did they say where he was going to play, i.e. 1-tech which is Star's position, or 3-tech which is Kyle's? In the press conference they had after selecting him McDermott said right now he projects as a 1-tech. Beane said he could possibly also swing out to the 3-tech, he didn't get a lot of opportunities to do that in college. This year he'll be in rotation with Star and hopefully develops his pass rushing skills for the future. But McDermott loves using a healthy rotation on the d-line so it's a good pick either way.

Easy to forget with everyone playing out of their heads in the playoff game but that front was getting plowed in the second half of the season. secondary was playing good football . I think we can all agree LBs and D Line were a need. Excellent value and great pick on it's own merit. Need and BPA converging with Value !

Logic Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Just got done watching 15 minutes of Harrison Phillips highlights. I already love him as a player! For some reason, I also love that he wore #66 in college and will wear #99 for the Bills. Also that his nickname is Horrible Harry. This dude and Trent Murphy -- The Stanford Destroyers -- together on the Bills d-line. Can't wait! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a box break from Panini, Harrison Phillips shows up for an appearance and the guy next to him shows him his auto and gets all excited to see his card pulled, reading his stats then sits over there and starts opening packs, seems like a very down to earth dude. skip to 40:24 mark to see Harrison Phillips. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky Diver Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Kyle will work with him and coach him up. What he lacks in athleticism will be compensated for by heart and desire. I see him developing as a good player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnC Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 (edited) What you see represented with the drafting of players such as Harrison Phillips and the acquisition of Trent Murphy that a priority is placed on full effort players who are self-motivated not only when they play but when they prepare. From a talent standpoint Marcell Dareus towers over these two blue collar players. However, it's not surprising the big time talent with the jiggly body is gone. A McDermott player is not the type of player you worry about coming into camp out of shape or snoozing in the dark room while the game film is being reviewed. A culture is built by the type of people who inhabit the room. Edited April 30, 2018 by JohnC 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 NFL draft steals: Cowboys have some of most promising value picks Harrison Phillips, DT, Bills (third round, No. 96): Consistent if not flashy, he is a reliable run stopper who should generate a consistent push. After Buffalo traded away its two second-round picks to move up for Josh Allen, coach Sean McDermott had to be thrilled the Stanford product was still available with the team's lone Day 2 selection. Phillips should instantly aid the 29th-ranked run defense as a reserve and eventually take over for Kyle Williams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
