Scorp83 Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 (edited) For most of us that want a little more insight... my guy Brett Kollmann lives for this draft stuff! He has a great breakdown on DK... not long...you won't be sitting around for 20-30mins but he gives good game film on DK game, 3 cone drill & lack of production. After watching this... I gotta tell you. He would be perfect for Allen! Can't wait to see the discussion on it. Enjoy! ? EDIT 4/11/19: As much as I love this breakdown of DK... man...I've fallen more & more in love with AJ Brown... that guy is going to be a stud & he's not just a slot WR...he can definitely play the outside pretty well. If we can trade back & snag him in the teens... I think that would be the best thing for our team & young QB.

NewEraBills Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 (edited) I watched it yesterday and he's saying things I've also said, not that I'm taking credit. He most likely didn't see my comments anywhere. I'm just saying I view DK like he does. Hopefully, there will be a discussion. We know how these things tend to turn out.

Brett provides an easier way for people that's skeptical on DK... to get a better understanding of him, without watching tons of Ole Miss games ?

JM57 Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 You can fall in love with him if you want, but you cannot deny that pinning the hopes of your offense on not one, but two key players with both a very low floor and very high ceiling is not smart. You're taking two huge risks by adding Metcalf to the mix with Allen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDK, I kinda think Allen raised his "low floor" up quite a bit with his performance last season, especially in the last quarter of the season. 14 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mat68 Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 I think it comes down to what your personal philosophy is. Personally, give me the most athletic freaks and put it on coaching to get all of it out of them. As an outside Wr in the offense utilized down the stretch he will be scary. A couple shots a game paired with crosses and comebacks makes him a problem. Why I think he is top 10 worthy is you dont find guys that size with his acceleration and top end speed often. If you have a chance at one you take if you have a guy who can get him the ball. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da webster guy Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 I'm not a fan of him for our team simply because I think we have 4 guys that have proven themselves to be able to get separation and move the chains, and I can't stop thinking about how embarrassing it was when the Patriots were simply handing off the ball and Sony Michel and Burkhead etc. gashed us for almost 300 yards, over 6 ypc. You can have three Julio Joneses and still not win a game with that kind of defense. We just can't ignore that kind of shredding, and if we're in a position to land a game changing defensive guy who can help us stop the run I believe we need to do it. 12 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bookie Man Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 DK brings some nice elements to an offense and can present some mismatch problems. But I don't think he has the hands of a top 10 pick. But I do think he would be a nice piece in this offense to go with some of the quick, twitchy underneath guys he have. Nice vid and breakdown, but Kollman also had me thinking Hackenburg and Reggie Ragland were going to be beasts also. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBillies Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 I'm torn. Ideal for me would be feeling like we steal him at 15 (for example) if a trade down situation. At 9? Not so sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CajunBillsBacker Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 (edited) It’s not that I wouldn’t want Metcalf, it’s just that I feel there’s great value in the 2nd and 3rd rounds at WR. I feel we can get an impact game changing player in round 1 and still get a good WR in round 2. From that video, the part that scares me if the lack of concentration at times resulting in drops. That’s the last thing we need after last season. Edited March 19, 2019 by CajunBillsBacker 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're probably right and it says something that we haven't addressed the defensive line in free agency. We are probably going d-line in the draft. That being said, I think Metcalf is going to be a stud. I don't know enough about the depth of d-linemen in this draft to know whether or not we gamble on picking up someone functional in rounds 2-4.

Yeah, because a squad lead by Tyrod Taylor putting up a top-10 offense definitely was an example of piss-poor coaching, as was leading a defense with zero pass rush to a #2 ranking last year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan17 Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 The one reason I can get behind Metcalf is because we did address the WR depth a good deal with Brown and Beasley. In turn, we could bring DK along slowly and use him early on, primarily as a redzone mismatch nightmare. There wouldnt be that strong onus on Metcalf to perform early on, which could help a player like him learn the NFL game before being thrown to the wolves. What is sometimes lost is how many WRs get eaten up and spit out of the first round. The learning curve feels the steepest and for a WR as raw as Metcalf, not having that pressure of having to play early might actually work out well for Buffalo.

Augie Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 You lose a little credibility when you lead with the Patriots and what players can do vs what they cannot do. The Patriots took Edelman (his example) in the 7th round, not #9 overall. Kinda different there. I don’t hate the guy, but I don’t think he’s as good of a football player as some guys on D who may be available at that point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally get tired of the whole drought, 25 year thing. Ralph has passed, and all those coaches, GM’s and scouts are gone. That stuff just seems lazy to me. The only thing that matters now is what our current FO and staff are doing under the current owners, and I like what I’m seeing. Time will tell. I’ve been wrong before. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloRebound Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 I do like that he comes from a family of NFL players. There’s gotta be some football instincts in there to go with immense physical talent. Beasley and Brown are good upgrades but it’d be nice to give Josh a ‘Dude’ to throw to.

947 Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 I've been one of the biggest DK haters on here, but the video makes some good points. I do agree that he can be a very dangerous WR if used like he suggests, but he's still too risky to draft #9. Megtron had really good college production, and no issues with his hands. Considering DK's hands & limited production, I don't think anybody takes that risk in the top half of round 1. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Hooks Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 (edited) I gotta say I was very adamant about not wanting DK. Like fiercely opposed.

Always put 2 of them on the field keeping the legs fresh rotating the 3 as the deep threats. Then you got that deep speed in both plus the size in DK while Cole and Kroft running underneath and Shady coming out of the backfield. OUCH, that will put a lot of pressure on the defense. Then you can pull DK out for a rest out Brown and Foster on the field and run Duke underneath with all that size too to go along with Cole slicing around down there. Again, I would be thrilled to land DK and have been on his train for a long time. But, I wont be made if we dont draft him as I am sure who ever we get at 9 is going to be a stud prospect. But DK would be exciting to say the least! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
