Pre-draft Therapy Session: Dr YOLO is in


Recommended Posts

What Ben Allbright just mocked is kind of a little frightening. Hockenson still on the board but the Bills pass on him and take Wilkins. Christian Wilkins will be a darned good NFL player, but is he going to be as special at his position as Hockenson? This might not sit well with me.

What would REALLY set me off? If the Patriots wind up with Hockenson or Fant. Just what we all need.

Good idea. 

 

Defensive back in the first would be the only think that would upset me.  They are great at scouting d backs so it would be silly to waste a high pick on one.  An o linemen is snoozefest but I get it.  

 

I dont want the Pats or Fins to end up with Rosen.  And I don’t want the Jets to get Oliver instead of us. 

 

Mans the worst nightmare of all is going to be trying to convince the old lady that the Nfl draft isn’t super boring because I love it.

Nick Bosa ends up with the Jets

Dolphins trade with the Raiders(they did in 2013) and select Q Williams

Allen is off the board

 

Ed Oliver is on the board at 8 and the Falcons leap frog us and take him.

Bills trade lots of draft capital to move into the top 4, only to pick Andre Dillard (or any tackle really). We then watch the other top OT's slide to the late teens and early 20's. 

 

To top it off, the Pats stand pat and Hock falls to them at the end of the 1st.

I think it is entirely possible they end up with Fant.

 

Or maybe they put together a deal to acquire Rosen from Arizona... :D

I’m on an island but I thought Bosa is completely overrated.  Living off his brother’s name and a rich kid who doesn’t need it.

I guess we will find out but I think he's better than his brother. Although if he does wind up with the Jets, I bet they and Greggo ruin him.

Ed Oliver gets to #8 and then ATL trades up with Detroit to take him one pick in front of us :censored:

The local sports media here is all about that kind of a trade-up scenario for the Falcons from the current #14 spot. Let's hope they whiff completely in this regard.

All 3 networks covering the draft go to commercial while the Bills are on the clock.

 

They come back from 10 minutes of commercials to see we took Metcalf at @9 who slipped and fell off the stage breaking both of his legs.

 

Sorry Yolo, you asked.... At least I won't run out of Tequila tonight no matter who Beane picks.

What the heck!!! I was happy trusting the process and not worried until I read you post. Thanks buddy ?

 

In all seriousness I think the above might happen.

Williams, Hockenson, Gary. I don’t want any of those at 9. I know there is a million worse players out there but those sound like realistic options for some.

 

Worst nightmare non Buffalo is Hakeem Butler going to NE. I’m convinced he will be the best WR in this draft and a top 5 guy after a few years.

 

Bruins/CBJ we aren’t friends for the next week.

Nightmare scenario?  The Bills’ staff present gets hung up on minor details, and misses their pick.  Being sticklers for ‘truth, justice, and the American way’, McBeane says “this is fine” and passes any drafting until the second round.  Nightmarish enough for you?

Gonna be a lot of unhappy campers on this board if Oliver is there and Buffalo doesn't take him.

 

That is, until they see him make zero impact in the league because he's a 265 lb DT and they all magically forget they were ever in love with the dude...

Yeah I'm afraid NE will take Hock.

 

I don't necessarily want Hockenson, though I would be OK with the Bills picking him.

 

But I will be upset if at the end of the night he's a Pat*. And of course if they get him somehow they will have traded up to 16 or something with just a pick swap and a 2045 7th rounder.

Here it is - THE Nightmare scenario, we miss submitting our pick. 2003 Minnesota Vikings (sorry about format, could not get rid of it)

Slow on trigger, Vikings miss pick
By Len Pasquarelli
ESPN.com


NEW YORK -- Justifiable or not -- and there are those on both sides of the fence -- the Minnesota Vikings are catching heat for a second consecutive year, thanks to a botched first-round maneuver.

 

The Vikings were forced on Saturday to make a rare "pass" on their first-round choice, the seventh pick overall, when they were unable to complete a proposed trade with the Baltimore Ravens before the 15-minute time limit lapsed.

 

By taking a "pass," the Vikings delayed their choice, but were permitted to then make it at any ensuing time.

 

But in frenzied flury in the minutes immediately following the Minnesota move, Jacksonville, choosing No. 8 overall, rushed in its card to pick quarterback Byron Leftwich.

 

In lightning time after that, Carolina jumped in to choose offensive tackle Jordon Gross.

 

Minnesota finally exercised its pick at the No. 9 slot, selecting defensive tackle Kevin Williams, one of the fastest-rising players in the lottery

What is your nightmare scenario tonight? Division rivals included? Let it all out. 

 

The Cards pass on Kyler Murray and then a team trades up to the Jets spot thinking that they need to leap the Raiders in order to draft him.  In doing so, they give the Jets a ton of picks/players to move up

 

-or-

 

The Patriots find Tom Brady's successor, ensuring another 20 years of New England's AFCE dominance
