The Firebaugh Kid Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 2 hours ago, Ittakestime said: One big exception is that Zion was player of the year and Oliver barley put up stats. Crazy to me why people ignore the production and the question marks with Oliver just because he ran one combine drill extremely quick. We all know the system wasnt a match for his skill set. Hence it doesnt show up on paper....somewhat. For the record I was all in on this guy before his pro day. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, what a great human being. Definitely somebody the community would embrace. http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-draft/0ap3000001027576/NFL-360-Dalton-Risner-s-incredible-relationship-with-family This is the piece you are referring to re: Risner. What an emotionally mature and kind-hearted human being, especially at 23. I would welcome him in a hot minute on the Bills - and if he doesnt, he still has a fan in me forever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurker Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 I'm all in on Hock. It would be a very un-Billsy pick, but if he's anywhere near 90% of Gronk I want him on this team, some way, some how. That said, I expect Oliver to be the pick after he slides down a bit... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ittakestime Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 4 hours ago, maryland-bills-fan said: It was more than that. He is fast and a disrupter, but was used as a nose tackle in college. Houston was 8-5 and Oliver played the "0" technique lined up on the center. So he got blocked immediatley and double teamed a lot. He got little help. No DT or DE from Houston is listed in the top 30 (walter football) and the ILB Emoke Egbole, who played behind him, came in at #22. (round 5-7?). I think this whole nose tackle crap is just an excuse. If the guy is this dominant, he should be putting up stats from either NT or DT. What I noticed when I watched a decent amount of games from him: entitled, over-penetrates, gives up very easily if immediately doesn't succeed, and got swallowed up too easily. There is a reason why he was asked to work out as a LB at the combine. The Aaron Donald comparisons are stemming from one measurement, not from his college tape.

Nester Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 I would be so happy with Hock , or J williams or Ed Oliver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whatdrought Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 You know, this doesn't really answer the question, but sometimes I can't help but think about getting Emmanual Hall in the fourth were he to fall... Imagine Foster, Hall, and Brown on the field at the same time... What do you do as a defense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 They teased me with the idea that Oliver might be available. That was cruel! I’m not feeling so lucky now. But there should be a very good player available at #9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacGyver Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 I don't want them to trade up, so Oliver is out. I think 9 is too high for a TE. I guess go with the best O-lineman... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreggTX Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 If I had to choose 1 player it would be Q Williams because he's the best player in the draft. I don't think we'll have any chance to get him, though. As far as my best hope for this draft as a whole, I want us to draft 2 guys that will be our 2 best players. I'm thinking someone like Dexter Lawrence could fall to us and that he's very underrated. Then somehow get a guy like Fant or AJ Brown that turns out to be much better than advertized and a total game changer. Add a couple more pleasant surprises and we're good to go.

You don't understand that a nose tackle NEVER gets good stats because they are used to tying up 2 offensive linemen and in keeping the LBers clean.

If you had the chance to get your guy at QB for the next decade, you'll move up to get him. Just like we did. And when that happens, a major name will fall into our lap. I don't know which one, but we're getting a stud. Ed Oliver would be great. Keeping my fingers crossed that QB's go flying off the board Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quincy Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Left field choice is Garrett Bradbury. Senior, Captain, great 3 cone and 40 yard dash at the combine. Can play RG next to Mitch Morse as a rookie. I think he will be a consummate professional, wonder whether the front office are still evaluating round 1 Center's after drafting Morse.

If he’s gone Devin White at 9. I see 5 elite players. Those are the guys I want Unfortunately all those guys are probably gone in the top 6...
