dubs Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 Oliver was thought of as the top player in the draft before the season started. It’s a great outcome. Very happy Beane didn’t panic and let the board come to him. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heitz Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 Quote @SalSports Good stuff from Brandon Beane. Said in all their mocks, never had Oliver falling to them if only 1 QB was taken in top 8, had him sometimes falling if 2 QBs were taken. Was usually there if 3 QBs. Also said they thought a team could trade to 8 and take him once he got there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think the Bills had opportunity to trade back (based on what Shefter said on ESPN) but when Oliver fell, they didn't want to move. Very well possible. I wouldn't have trade back if I were them 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good job, and thanks to the Raiders for continuing their tradition of screwing things up. Agreed. So, are we done for the night?

Does anyone think his size will be an issue? I didn’t watch a lot of him in college. I heard today they used him as a NT in a 3-4 this year and it caused him have an understandable drop off in production. Will he be big enough to play an effective 3 tech in the nfl? he looks a lot like Aaron Donald to me. Not super big but thick with great quickness and great first step.

Let’s hope he is the next Darned LD which is asking a lot. I agree with a couple of earlier posters we don’t need 9 more guys after acquiring 17 in free agency. Package some to get more talented guys. As Al Davis used to say “Just win baby”. 17 or 19?https://www.buffalorumblings.com/buffalo-bills-nfl-free-agency-2019/2019/3/7/18254679/buffalo-bills-2019-free-agent-rumor-signing-tracker-news-contract-trade-ziggy-ansah-antonio-brown Regardless, could be the craziest offseason in Bills history!

I’m with you on the need for a real playmaker on offense; however, I think Oliver was the right pick at 9. I think Beane is going to try to to find that playmaker late in the 1st / early 2nd - or maybe even through a trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting. At first I was going to say you are nuts. But then I checked the stats. Their listed weights are the same. Oliver is 2 inches taller. Donald looks much thicker that Oliver especially in the shoulders and arms. Somehow I think Oliver is closer to 270-275 when playing but bulked up for the combine and Donald is closer to 295 now. But if Oliver is 3/4th the player DOnlad is he will be a force. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExWNYer Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 Before the draft started, I had resigned myself to the fact that the Bills were getting a very nice 'consolation prize' in Jonah Williams. I am thrilled that Ed Oliver fell to them at 9. The first 8 picks couldn't have fallen much better in the Bills' favor with huge assists from the Raiduhs and G-men.

I was already doing the old familiar thing of consoling myself ahead of time, setting myself up emotionally by talking myself into Jonah or Wilkins. So glad Ed Oliver fall. Still can't believe it.

The Senator Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 1 minute ago, NoHuddleKelly12 said: Somewhere Tom Brady is frantically calling Guerrero wondering how many more massage hours he will have to schedule after Bills games this year. It’s all about crushing the evil empire, one process draft pick at a time. Oliver is an instant disrupter. He will fill the void left by Kyle’s retirement, and he’ll make Brady cry. Plus, he seemed to fall in love with Buffalo during his visit. I had another player in mind, but never thought Oliver would fall to us. I’m totally psyched! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreggTX Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 God bless the Raiders. I didn't expect Oliver to be there at 9. For a while I almost thought Allen would get to us! No matter. I'm very happy with this pick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buffalobillswin Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 I honestly wanted him over Hockenson. I think he will make a more immediate impact and I am all in for the playoffs this year. This defense is going to be so scary 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
