Dillard and Taylor really could end up top 10 picks.

 

This league is starved for OLmen, and both guys really solidified their statuses with their efforts yesterday. Taylor looking silky smooth despite a hamstring problem may, in fact, have vaulted him to OT1 on a lot of boards 

Not surprised we’re on the same page here.  I won’t be able to watch any of this live, only reports later on, so I caught a few of the agility test reps for Taylor and was truly impressed with his mobility and agility. Doing it while not at 100% is even more impressive. And I know the various team personnel love the idea that he wants to be out there competing with an injury. 

 

Havent seen Dillard,  it will take your word that he’s impressive. 

 

I haven’t been impressed with Jonah Williams very much going back to Alabama’s season opener. He’s decent but not dominating. I think he will be better inside.

 

I love Risner’s fire and versatility. But again, I think he’s best suited to an interior role. He worked out at center at the Senior Bowl so I think pro personnel folks maybe think the same way.

Hard to take a guy top 10 especially a TE who’s not a physical freak like Gronk.  

Big Hock fan but was hoping for at least 4.6s. Kittle was a 4.52 guy and Kelce was low 4.6s. Ertz was 4.76 but it would like to be a little more dynamic if top ten. I’d like to see the other quickness drills to see if he measures up in those areas.

Gronk ran a 4.68 40... just a .02 faster than 4.7.

 

We all have the tendency to glorify the combine measurables a bit too much on guys that have had success in the league - for reference NFL.com still has this to say in their archive regarding Gronk's combine.

 

"Does not have a great top-end speed and may not be able to stretch the field at the next level. Lacks the elusiveness to make people miss after catch."

 

Yeah - that guy is going to suck. :)

I am hoping the bills go WR/TE/RB in the first 3 rounds and not take an Olineman or ANY Defense early. We have plenty of money to fix the lines in FA and the defense is pretty much complete Imo. The college game isn’t developing offense linemen properly anyway. We desperately need skill position players and I have no interest in buying any of these second rate FA with tread on the tires. Go out and get the best combination of WR-TE-RB early and give josh young help. 

This group of OLmen looks pretty dam good imo.

I don’t even feel like we need a tackle that bad. It’s our interior line that’s really bad. I would not take a tackle in the first few rounds. We have pretty solid tackles. The Guards are the big issue. Go get a big time TE and WR.

That’s just stupid

Think about it.

 

I think Ebron was just slow to develop and had some early inconsistencies in his game which is why Stafford and Detroit did not use him as their go-to guy.

 

He has matured as a route runner and is catching the ball better with Indy, but needed that change of scenery. 

 

I get your point Doc, a team that spends their draft coin on Fant may end up having a long learning and maturity curve as well to endure and may not get their value from him. Buffalo fans are not very patient with dropped balls or lazy routes as the KB experiment clearly showed.
