Logic Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 In Joe Buscaglia's most recent mock draft, he drew up a scenario in which Quinnen Williams, Ed Oliver, Josh Allen, Nick Bosa, and Montez Sweat are all gone before the Bills pick at 9. If this scenario were to play out, and the Bills were UNABLE to trade back for extra picks, who would you take? I make that proviso because I have the feeling that just about every reply on this thread would be "trade down". Well, suppose you CAN'T trade down here. The phones aren't ringing. Who do you take?

Rc2catch Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 I think there are better players available and white would probably be the best. But I’m taking Hock. You just gotta have a vertical tight end in this league to be a top tier offense that’s just all there is to it. Linebackers and corners are much easier to coach up (especially for this staff) than a tight end. Hock is the playmaker we desperately need. 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fansince88 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 I would just trade all of my 2019 picks away for future picks. No sense in picking 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJB Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 (edited) My boy Hockenson!   Only player in the draft that can help run and pass blocking as well as safety valve over the middle and red zone target.  To be successful we need to help Josh Allen and see him succeed. Hockenson helps more than any other player Edited April 12, 2019 by DJB 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Linen Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Some posters are feeling like we're in "no mans land" at 9 etc etc. I feel just the opposite. If the above scenario happens who cares, we have a plethora of options even if it does.  We can draft Hock, a WR, trade down (I'd imagine if all that happens, it'll be a perfect spot for a team looking at a QB, etc.  2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsfaninSB Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 (edited) We take Hock regardless unless a miracle happens and Williams falls to 9.  if we take Hock, trade up to late 1st and get Wilkins or Dexter.  If we get super lucky and get Q we trade up to late first again and take M. Brown or Fant.  If we take J Taylor at 9 I’m okay with that too.  Edited April 12, 2019 by BillsfaninSB 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Joshin' Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 White or Hockenson. I think White is a bit higher rated but the TE would be tempting. Glad I do not need to make that decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hock is the playmaker we desperately need. I agree...Rivers and Rothelisberger got a lot of help during their early years by having two of the best TEs to have played the game. Both Gates and Heath Miller were fantastic in providing a great option for their young QBs and at the same time block and keep the QB upright. I hope Josh gets one of those type of guys rather than some scruffs who couldn't get separation or wouldn't come back and make a play 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreggTX Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 (edited) I'll have to go with Byron Murphy, Jerry Tillery or Jonah Williams. Murphy is the best zone CB in the draft and we'd have the best secondary in the NFL. Tillery is an outstanding interior pass rusher and would set up a competition between H Phillips and Lotulelei for the other starting spot. Williams is IMHO the best OL in this draft long term.  I also think Kroft is going to have his best season yet.

Sherlock Holmes Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 I cry in the corner the second we don't trade up for Bosa. Then I regroup and pick Hockenson.  I hate missing out on great players and I know if McBeane and McD were here when Kuechly was available we wouldn't have passed on him. Same with JJ Watt.
