Ittakestime Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Not sure how many people listen to Daniel Jeremiah's podcast, but he dropped the nugget about the Bills "I have heard from a ton of different people, Jonah Williams is someone to watch there." Just thought I would let people know. Here is his last mock of 2018: http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000928661/article/jeremiah-mock-draft-40-browns-pick-baker-mayfield-no-1 Had the Bills trading up for Josh Allen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEpsYtown Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 I really don't like him at 9, however, if Daboll thinks he is the guy, having coached him and seen him first hand, I can't argue with it. If you take him, I think you make the Zach Martin move and plug him at right guard. He's likely an all pro quickly there. I think Williams is the level of guard prospect, but I just don't like it at 9. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Joe Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 If this happens I wont hate this, but I would prefer a few other guys now at 9.. At least Daboll knows him pretty well so you would think he would have to have a lot of confidence in the pick... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleeding Bills Blue Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Dawkins - Spain/Feliciano - Morse - Williams - Nsekhe (possible flip flop the Tackles) with Long backup C/G, Waddle backup T, Feliciano/Spain backup G Waddle also may not be active on game days as Williams kicks out to tackle if either of those guys goes down. Night and Day vs. what we rolled out there a year ago. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HansLanda Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Not sure about him at 9 if he projects as a guard. Too rich. For me the only linemen you spend a top 10 pick on is a legit LT - can maybe be talked into a RT, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptnCoke11 Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Yeah i can’t see it. I’m convinced it’s DL or Hock 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WMDman Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 I’m okay with it as long as Ed Oliver is off the board 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logic Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 We may all have guys that we prefer, but I don't see how anyone could be mad at drafting arguably the best tackle in all of college football. His ceiling is "outstanding offensive tackle" and his floor is "Pro Bowl level guard". We could do a lot worse. 11 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOboy Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 If we move back to the teens I’d be fine with it, but not at 9, not after we’ve already done a ton to improve the line, and certainly not if a game changing prospect is on the board (Oliver/Hock).

In my opinion, many of the moves on the line this offseason are temporary. We do need to draft along both lines and Williams has been a monster versus top level talent in the SEC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Senator Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Jonah Williams is the guy I’ve been wanting all along, but with all the free agent signings and the depth of this draft at OT, I’m beginning to think Christian Wilkins at #9. . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 WOnt hate it....but I hope it means that they think he can be a ORT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldTimer1960 Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 (edited) I’d have to trust that they know what they are doing. Sure, he is a good prospect, but it doesn’t seem like he is a great prospect. The line would project as a good C, an old career backup T and 3 guys who should be G. I should say that in general I am OK with taking a good solid prospect at 9 - doesn’t have to be a swing for the fences guy to make me happy, but I think there have to be equivalent or better prospects available at more important positions than G. I get that he might be capable of playing T, but do you really need two guys (Dawkins and Williams) that likely should be Gs playing OT?

Allen2Moulds Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 If the Clemson game is any indication, please no. But you can't argue with an oline/dline pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewEraBills Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 As an interior lineman I can dig it completely. The Colts entire offense shifted due to Quenton Nelson. But if you want a tackle, why not take Dillard instead? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He couldn't unseat Mills at RT, and we were all expecting that, and I remember him not being very good at RT because he was more awkward on that side. Maybe I'm blending him at Kuandjio together, though. Maybe Dawkins isn't horrendous on the right side, but he's better on the left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 jonah or sweat at 9 I would strongly dislike! We could be leaving Oliver, DK, White, Hock on board- all 4 could be perennial all pro's IMO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
