MakeBuffaloGreatAgain Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 I want to trade back to the middle of the first round and grab an extra 2nd round pick to make this work(Yay, I don't play Madden, so telling me to stick to Madden won't work). Round 1 - Greg Little*, OT, Ole Miss Height: 6-6. Weight: 325. Little has had a decent year for Ole Miss. In speaking to team sources, they aren't super excited about him because Little doesn't play up to his potential consistently. Everybody acknowledges his skill set, but being an underachiever leaves a sour taste for a lot of evaluators. As a result, multiple team sources have told me they had given Little a late first-round grade. They expect him to go higher though because this is a weak tackle draft and there are a lot of NFL teams that are desperate for offensive line help. Round 2 - Cody Ford, G, Oklahoma Height: 6-5. Weight: 335. Ford is the starting right tackle for the Sooners, but sources say that he projects to being a guard in the NFL. He is thick blocker with good bulk for the next level. Scouts who have been through Oklahoma say that Ford is an outstanding athlete for his size. He's playing right tackle now, but as a pro, they think he will project well as a guard. Some evaluators think Ford could be a late first-round or second round-pick in the 2019 NFL Draft. Round 2 - Elgton Jenkins, C, Mississippi State Height: 6-4. Weight: 304. Jenkins has been a steady blocker in the middle of the Mississippi State offensive line this season. Overall, he had an impressive game against Auburn as Bulldogs quarterback Nick Fitzgerald had a lot of success running behind him. Round 3(maybe trade up into the second) - Marquise Brown*, WR, Oklahoma Height: 5-11. Weight: 160. Projected 40 Time: 4.35. In 2018, Brown has 70 receptions for 1,264 yards and 10 touchdowns. There is no doubt that Brown is explosive and has devastating speed that makes him a threat to score on any touch of the football. Anyways, there's my 3 round mock... I will trust Beane to find the late round gems at LB and Safety... What do you guys think? on a side note, check out highlights of Rondale Moore for Purdue: This kid is a Kareem Hunt/Saquon Barkley type... not sure if he is eligible for the draft, but that may change my mock. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptnCoke11 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Focus on free agents first.. That’s where I’m at. Hope Allen keeps playing well and we can attract some good offensive free agents in the offseason. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not trying to be rude but there is a ZERO percent chance that they draft 3 OL before getting a pass catcher. Also, Hollywood Brown won’t make it out of round 2 (may not make it to round 2). The Bills will have a pass catcher and an OL by the end of round 2. Edited December 3, 2018 by Kirby Jackson 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MakeBuffaloGreatAgain Posted December 3, 2018 Author Share Posted December 3, 2018 I'm not opposed to drafting WR talent, I just don't see any Julios, AJ Greens, Odells, Etc. in this draft. There are very good looking interior/RT prospects though. I think 1 WR upgrade can take us to the next level, but we need a complete overhaul on the C to right side of our line.

Rico Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Yeah, I'd like to see at least: (1) Day 1 or Day 2 OL (1) Day 1 or Day 2 WR (2) decent quality FA OL's (2) decent quality FA WR's then throw in a decent TE in the draft or in FA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njbuff Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 I think the Bills should sign Spain from Tennessee and D.Williams from Carolina to be the RG and RT respectively. They can get their C within the first three rounds of the draft. And, by God get this kid some skill players. There will be plenty of money and draft picks to get it done. And maybe there will be a big trade in the works too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whatdrought Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 I would rather sign some quality offensive linemen (Would love to go big money for Roger Saffold of the Rams) and maybe draft 1 and then a TE and WR in the first three rounds. I also wouldn't mind trading back. I think the value of the FA market is more towards Oline than it is playmaker, whereas playmakers are going to be better in the draft.

DallasMac Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 I just feel like I see more o linemen bust early in the draft than any other position.

pimp on da' net Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Wist list 2019: Free Agency: Ju'Wuan James- RT Matt Paradise - C This sures up 3 critical positions (LT,RT & C) for a functional line, imo. The guard play will improve with better center leadership... Tyrell Williams- WR Red zone & down field target decent size Phillip Dorsett- WR hasn't done much so far in the league but his speed has to be respected, can fill the jet sweep & downfield target so badly needed for Josh. Jesse James - TE Ideal size & chain mover to keep drives alive & red zone target. EJ Gaines- CB he knows McD & Frazier's system shouldn't cost too much...even tho I like how Wallace is developing. I also don't want McBeane drafting a CB in the 1st rd, LOL! 2019 Draft: 1st rd- Best player available I would love to get Ed Oliver if he's there when we pick but I wouldn't be surprised that they have their eye's on a CB here with a 9/10 pick. 2nd-4th rd- Best offensive player available- RB, WR or OL players I like in this position : 2nd rd grade- Damian Harris RB, M. Brown (Jr) WR, Noah Fant TE or OL 3rd rd grade- If no WR in previous rd, Parris Campbell, Deebo Samuel- WR (I'd like hybrid type players w/ speed for Daboll offense), best OL player 4th rd grade (2 picks)- Khalil Hodge ILB tackling machine (move Edmunds to SLB), best DB or pass rusher avail... My 2019 wishlist, subject to change! ? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victory Formation Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 I like the players you took. The rounds they were taken in is the only thing I'd tweak but I count 4 starters.
