Listening to what people are saying this time of year is like believing Tom Brady is retiring per Twitter on April Fools Day.......highly questionable at best. 

 

 

 

But I don’t doubt that this could be the case.

That would be great if both Devin's went top 10.  Kyler-Bosa-Williams-Allen-Oliver are locks for top 10- that's 7.  There will be a player that either Buffalo covets, or another team does and makes a trade.  The only good thing IMO about losing out on Oliver, I am hoping that Beane trades down, and gets some more top 100 picks.   We could trade back 12 spots and still be able to draft one of these players-

OT Jawaan, Jonah, Andre, Ford

DL Wilkins, Gary, Burns, Sweat, 

WR DK

TE Hotch, Fant

CB Greedy, Byron

RB Jacobs

If this is the case, and I think it will be, this presents the Bills with a great player at #9, or by trade-down.  

 

It also opens the possibility: will an unexpected run on LB's occur in the 1st round?  No other LB's really have a 1st round grade, but if some team is drafting for need, they could, as Bean says, screw themselves.

So we've officially hit the stage where 17 players are going in the top 10

In this draft the difference between 4 and 15 is not much in term of talent. That means if you can find a trade partner the Bills can drop a few spots and still get a great player. Problem is you need to find a partner and that only happens if there is a team that wants a QB at 9.

I have been high on Bush from the start. To me the only knock is size. He ticks basically every other box. The other thing helping he and White is the precipitous drop off at the position. 

 

Say they both go by 11... I think there is basically one off the ball linebacker worthy of going in about the next 60 spots - Mack Wilson.

Um, thanks for the education, but I don't see it that way.

 

I've got a top group of Oliver, Bosa, Q. Williams, Allen, White, Taylor, and Murray. After that, I've got a very small tier 2 of Wilkins, Hockenson, and Sweat.

 

And the joke was more about how at this point in the process, every year, without fail, you get Kiper and McShay proclaiming that everyone and their brother will be a top-10 pick.
