STL-Bills Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 36 minutes ago, Tsaikotic said: Im going with 2 crushes...OL Dalton Risner and WR Deebo Samuel edit: just wanted to add that whatever player I want never seems to be the pick, so I fully expect Buffalo to NOT draft these two guys These 2 players are the right answer. N'Keal Harry is NOT what we need. Slow, aligator arms, body catches... We've seen that before folks. Risner is exactly what our line needs (whether he plays OT or C) and Samuel is the kind of WR that can dominate in today's NFL. If the Bills get both of these guys I'll be over the moon with joy. If we take Harry, I'll be extremely disappointed in Beane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My draft crush is N'Keal Harry. His highlight real is like WR Porn. I also really like Metcalf, expecting a big combine from him. Harry looks awesome. We NEED a guy who can make contested catches badly. That's his game. 1 hour ago, Warcodered said: Jesus that guy can catch also looked like he had to come back on a lot of them. Yes.

CookieG Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 1 hour ago, Alphadawg7 said: Im no expert on him, but if hes considered a 2nd round guy, or late first, wouldnt 9 be a big reach? Or has he risen that far up boards? It depends on which board, I imagine. I kinda think many teams rate OL higher than many draft sites, for a number of reasons. I think most teams are realizing that you just can't get away with a good LT and some fill ins. The gap between LT and RT has diminished. And with the current buzz of how rare plug and play OL are now, they've become a hot commodity for the discerning GM. I'd bet most scouting depts. have him rated higher. If he solidifies the right side of the line...I don't see it as a reach at all. On the other hand, if you wait, there's a good chance that he..and others are gone by the second. Its how we ended up with CK. I have no problem using a first on a Kevlar vest for Allen. And most importantly, after a pancake block, it will be fun to say this... https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/0c004106-5f43-4123-8f26-ea70b404999d 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostbitmic Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Josh Allen - No chance of him at #9 though and I wouldn't move up. Dalton Risner - I'd prefer trading back with someone like Washington but I'd strongly consider him where we're at. He's nasty and our line could use that. Anthony Johnson in the - 2nd. I like the idea of a UB player on the team and he fits a need. Starting off with Risner, Johnson and a TE would be a solid start to the draft.

He also seems to have a diverse enough skillset that a switch to the interior wouldn't be out of the question. I even saw a Twitter debate over whether or not CENTER would actually be his best position. Me? I would start him out at right tackle and, worst case scenario, he slides inside to guard, a la Zack Martin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2o Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Hakeem Butler / WR / Iowa St. - I've said it before and I'll say it again, the kid reminds me of AJ Green. At 6'6", 225lbs he is already bigger than any man you put across from him. He has the speed to beat the coverage deep, high-points the ball well, snatches the ball using his hands with ease, knows how to use his body to sheild defenders, and makes the tough catches. That's the guy I want in a Bills uni. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat68 Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Imo many draftnicks and sights can't easily evaluate Wrs. D-line is easy because the the standard tv view you can see guys getting up field easily. You are not seeing the wrs run the routes. Just making catches. The best wr in this draft will be a better player then the 4th or 5th dlineman. That's what the sights are saying. I would argue the increased use of the spread and 2 point stances by many olines has skewed the evaluation of dline play in college and how it translates to the NFL.

BubbaT Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Chris Lindstrom Guard from BC. I want to see the Bills get a guard that can both anchor and has the mobility to pull and drive up to the next level. and not just some mauler. I like Risner too but i would be happy if Lindstrom ended up a Bill. It would please me no end to see the Bills draft multiple O linemen. I'm hoping for better players than a 6th/ 7th round type. I loved when the Bills took E Wood 1st and Andy Levitre 2nd. I know FA may address some of this but don't know yet how that will play out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WideNine Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 I would like to see us trade down to lower in the 1st if the Bills are looking to re-tool on offense. I have only really focused mainly on offensive prospects that match our team needs, but I trust some of the regulars here that have higher 1st rd grades on the premier DL/Edge prospects. Oakland has 2 picks in the first, and normally I would think they would be game to trade up, but I think Mayock is going to be a bit cautious as he knows he is under the microscope as a GM. My personal favorite is T. J. Hockenson more than any of the big, rangy WR's available this year. But plenty of mocks have him as a late rounder, drafttek has him falling to the Bills in the 5th...if that happened - YES, and the Bills could still reel in a N'Keal Harry (not quite sold), Metcalf (like his speed better than Harry), or an A. J. Brown, or Anthony Johnson, as well as some o-line help. With Hock, it will just make me ill if NE picks him up and we end up facing Gronk 2.0 for the next decade. I like Dalton too - early grades had him as a rd 3-5 pick and I think I had the Bills grabbing him in the 3rd or 4th in some of my other mock posts here, but looks like he will likely be gone sooner. Andre Dillard LT seems to be making a name for himself down in Mobile too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
