Juice_32 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I dont hate it, but I think we can do better at both WR and TE than this. Our whole draft will be determined by what we do in FA on the o-line. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

947 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I'd be cool with this draft. Hadn't really looked at Isaac Nauta much until now, but he looks like a stud. Really underutlized in GA's passing game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whatdrought Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 (edited) I like this. I might prefer Samuel in the second, but I do like JAWs. This is a good pre-FA draft as it does a great job addressing as many needs as possible. I love the Wise and McLaurin picks.

CNYfan Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 If McLaurin is available in the 5th I, at least, would be surprised. Mr. McLaurin blew up the Senior Bowl, if I remember correctly. This draft seem to put the emphasis on the correct areas, while one could argue specifics it has a solid theme and apparent execution of that theme.

The draft is for filling needs within the context of not over-drafting any one position based on need. BPA vs. Need is a stupid conversation because both get you in trouble. BPA = CJ Spiller and trading Marshawn Lynch. Need = Christian Ponder as a top ten draft pick. Just now, CNYfan said: If McLaurin is available in the 5th I, at least, would be surprised.

The only thing that could drop him that low would be a showing at the Combine that shows he isn't physically gifted.

May be a reach at that spot in the 3rd. He is solid, and I think he will be a dependable blocking and possession-type NFL starter, just don't see him getting separation or high-pointing passes on seem routes. IMO he projects more as the kind of guy that finds soft spots in zones and sits on those. From what I saw of his games he has dependable hands and decent blocking...needs as much work as most TE's coming out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This draft seem to put the emphasis on the correct areas, while one could argue specifics it has a solid theme and apparent execution of that theme. He did, but typically that will not move someone up that significantly. Draft grades are already established for teams prior to the SR Bowl and the 5th rd was probably just right for him, if not a bit on the high side. Kiper said he thought he launched himself into round 2 - i just don’t believe that. I do think he will run fast at the combine but at the end of the day all of this post-season/pre-draft stuff had to line up with the tape. And I think he has good tape but not “dominant” tape as a WR. He lacks short area explosiveness though he is fast. Hes a great route runner and has solid hands but his size is very average. His ceiling is probably a #2-3 WR and usually those guys aren’t drafted high. He’s a dominant ST player which helps but i still think he’s a mid rounder looking at the rest of the class.

It would only be positive reinforcement if "this expert" has actually watched the film. But I doubt it since it is a full 7 round mock and it is unlikely he has watched that much film at this stage. It is still early even for a 3-round mock, let alone a 7-round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like mocks because they are discussion points for various players that the draft guys could see going to the Bills. It’s not expected to be a prediction. I watch a ton of CFB but I’ve never seen a guy like the RB from Utah state or the TE from UGA, it’s a launching pad for some to look into them further. This guy does watch film, but again it’s not a prediction of any kind. It’s labeled “pre-combine” and will have several iterations by April. He’s just taking a stab at some players who might fit the needs and scheme of the Bills, according to which rounds they are projected. Not to be taken seriously, just discussion points 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickey Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I am not at all enamored of taking a right tackle that high, especially when we need WR's just as badly. I'd be much happier with Metcalf in the first. We haven't had a WR like that since Eric Moulds. Every team in the league seems to be able to find competent RT's without spending a top ten pick. I rather bet on finding a decent RT in the 2nd or 3rd rounds than finding a game breaking WR that late in the draft. Sure it happens but the odds I think favor prioritizing WR over RT.
