RobbRiddick Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 I know this would be a LONG shot and you'd have to find someone willing to trade up but if it were me and we had a REALLY high pick I'd trade down and grab someone's second. In fact if I went from, say, pick 3 to pick 9, I would consider trading down again to maybe the late teens. At this point I'd just try and accumulate as many picks in the first three rounds as I could and completely rebuild that O-line, mixed with some veteran leadership via FA. Grab a couple of WRs and maybe a TE. I'd try and draft two wideouts in the first three rounds, and also get at least one through FA. Three o-linemen, two via FA. A TE, some depth at CB somewhere along the way - I do trust this regime at picking up defensive backs, even in the later rounds. Easy to say but that would be how I'd attack it. I see the logic of going after a 'superstar' WR high in the draft but they are notorious for taking a while to develop in many cases, so I'd rather improve the talent in many areas right across the offense. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we end up on this track for a high draft pick, and the entire answer to our roster problems isn't something we can address with a single pick, I'd love to see us trade down, even if the extra picks come in the next year's draft.

AJ Green is and will always be better than Dez, see where I'm confused Just comparing playing style and player build. Im a Georgia fan as you can see and I’d take AJ all day. right now I feel the player that reminds me of Dez type playing style is NKeal Harry. I feel he’s the top WR in the nation right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCal Deek Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 I'm sorry is this supposed to be big news? The Bills need a Wide Receiver? Who knew? From what I've seen the professional performance of college WRs is very hard to predict. You roll the dice and take your chances. I'm more of the mindset that you get some offensive linemen first, and then see what's left on the Board. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Dude Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Draft talk already? Huh. Two weeks early this year. Yeah, we gotta draft a WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loedward22 Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Sal needs to refine his idea. We actually have to find a high culture (ideally a holy roller) elite WR. Unfortunately these are even more rare and difficult to find. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He beats up on the little teams then when the big boys come to town he’s a ghost. I’d rather draft DK Metcalf in the second than brown in the first. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For what it’s worth, all four of the guys at TheDraftNetwork.com have Metcalf ranked as their #1 WR in the draft. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterpan Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 We need big targets with big wingspans to catch Allen's off target passes. Little speedy guys, like the ones we've signed and drafted so far, won't mesh with Allen's skillset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh you mean John Ledyard - full time high school football coach, self-appointed draft analyst? 0 years NFL experience? Or his lackey Joe Marino? Their opinions mean very little.
