Iron Maiden Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Just now, Success said: An impact WR would have been nice, but not necessary. We’re going into ‘19 with our best WR corps in years as is. We now have a full stable of talented RB’s, most of whom can catch well, and Knox could be one of the big steals of this draft given his measurables and underutilization in college. Add to that an o-line that most of us won’t even recognize with talent and depth that we haven’t seen in many years here in Buffalo. Beane has been masterful. It took a very long time, but the Bills are building this team the right way.... 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very surprised he is still there but just don't see him as a fit for our D. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely, however, fans around the country when asked that question would choose Watson over Allen fairly heavily. Watson is the right player for the Houston stadium not so much for orchard park.

Logic Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 (edited) 11 minutes ago, RocCityRoller said: Yeah, this draft went sideways in a hurry. I loved rounds 1 and two. As usual Buffalo struggles in the third round. I just don't see either of the guys drafted in the 3d on this team past their rookie contract. The fact that it cost both the 4th and 5th rounds to move up for them is ugly. Happy with 1 and 2, but teams are built in the 3-5th. major let down after a great start Sometimes you have to respect the value of what's on the board. By the time the Bills were on the clock in the 3rd round, a tremendous run on WRs had happened, and the value was no longer there. I, for one, am glad they remained true to the value on their board, picked BPA, and would up with four players in the top 100. I also think that Knox and Singletary will be starting for the Bills offense next season (2020). Time will tell.

He can fit the ball into tight spots and shows the ability to drive the ball vertically when he has space to step into his throws. He's accurate and does a great job of leading his receivers to yards after the catch. Edited April 27, 2019 by Real McCoy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Athleticism is good, but he needs a lot of work IMO. He has hardly played and hasn't had a lot of time to grow and learn the position, definitely a long term pick IMO. In any event he is a Bill - so Go Bills and hopefully he turns out well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our offensive coordinator is a former tight ends coach for New England, and our current tight ends coach Rob Boras is a good one. I happen to think we WILL develop Knox into a quality TE, and sooner rather than later. Their development of undrafted WR Jason Croom into a contributing TE adds to my belief that they will have success with Knox. I respect your opinion, though, and time will tell the tale. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSHMEAB Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 My big hope going into these final days is that we take Tyre Brady in the 6th or 7th. He's going to make some team very happy. Won't wow anyone with speed, but he's got the best hands in the draft. I see him as a tremendous big slot and perfect fit when you've got guys like Brown and Foster on the outside. He'd very possibly push Zay Jones off the roster, but that's fine with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
