Shaw66 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 No brainer. Metcalfe already has outperformed his draft projection. His hands are better than advertised, and his size is great. If he'd been in Buffalo this season, we would have been spared a hundred Duke Williams threads, because Metcalfe would have playing and Brown and Beasley would have been fine. Hindsight is 20-20. Plus, Ford may well turn out to be a very good lineman for a long time. If you get a good player in the draft, it doesn't matter so much that you might have done better with someone else.

Coach Tuesday Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Metcalf ran stiff and upright during the predraft workouts and didn’t put a full route tree on film in college. He was a high upside projection that worked out. Ford showed heavy feet in college and appears to be a bit off-kilter mentally. I’d give him one year at guard and then cut bait if he doesn’t cut down on his mistakes. Wasted pick most likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like top 3 at the position. Because I have a feeling DK will be tearing it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His rookie year compares favourably with the rookie years of all the top 3 techs in the league not name Aaron Donald. EDIT: Oh and your boy still isn't even the best receiver in his draft from his own school. Edited January 6, 2020 by GunnerBill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loveorhatembillsfan4life Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 I like the way AJ Brown looks. Thoughts on him over Metcalf? I don’t follow college intensely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, DK Metcalf just set a record for receiving yards for a rookie WR in his first playoff game. 160. Any big plays for Ed last night I missed?

Edit: let's hope you're right about Oliver's "top end talent." I need like 8 sacks at a minimum next year.

Dr.Mantis_Toboggan Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Should’ve been AJ Brown. I think Ford might end up good, but they could’ve signed another journeymen and gotten the same, if not better production. Definitely thought either AJ or DK would be a Buffalo Bill on draft day.
