Kirby Jackson Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 (edited) He’s not my favorite prospect but I defer to Beane on all things. He’s done a nice job in the draft. I’ll trust him and not complain. Edited March 7, 2020 by Kirby Jackson 16 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEBills Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 Higgins has his flaws and their are better prospects imo but he probably has the best hands in this draft...and we were plagued with drops the last two years. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alphadawg7 Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 I’m still high on Higgins. Honestly, there isn’t a WR they can take in rounds one or two that I would be disappointed in. Lots to like about all the guys projected in those areas. I think people made a way bigger deal out of the combine decision than they needed to. I mean he is gonna do all that at his pro day. If he didn’t feel his best at the combine, it’s a smart decision to not hurt his stock and wait until his pro day. 7 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeastMode54 Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 I don't care who the WR is, I just don't want to swing and miss. It was so disappointing drafting Sammy and see guys drafted later like Evans and ODB blow up. As long as the WR is good, not even great, I'll be happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billspro Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 I think him, Mims, and Jefferson are all worthy of first round picks. All of the top six guys have potential to be number 1 wideouts. Who knows who will be the best one at the end of the day. Hopkins and Thomas were not the top rated wideouts in their class either. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whorlnut Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 I can certainly understand the buzz about Higgins. He might be the best in the class at catching area code balls which Allen usually throws. Especially down the field. Wouldn’t be shocked one bit if he is their target. The only thing that concerns me is his mysterious absence at the on field workouts at the combine... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seoulofstone Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 Lots of good WRs. Don't overdraft because of need. I think Higgins could be a good player, but the Bills have to get the right character for this team and I don't love his fit with the Bills.

The Firebaugh Kid Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 The basketball background is attractive. Still....if he runs a 4.6 or worse I'm taking a shot at somebody with more speed and explosiveness. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Otreply Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 (edited) It is hard to know what Beane has in store for us, hell he could very well trade up and grab one of the top three, provided he can find a partner who wants to trade back, Beane may as well sit tight and go for two WRs and trade up later in the draft, we have nine picks, and imo we will walk away from the draft with not more than five guys. Trading up is in the cards again. Go Bills!!! Edited March 7, 2020 by Don Otreply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo86 Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 Asked about his thoughts on Buffalo after he revealed he had met with the team this week, Higgins said their success in 2019 was impressive. He thinks it’s a team ready to break through. “It’s a playoff team,” he said. “It’s real cold up there, but I’m from Tennessee. It gets cold in (here too). But it’s just a team that’s hungry and you can tell they’re pushing for a super bowl soon.” 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob in STL Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 We have a long history of drafting good WRs but things are different in the WR Diva Era of today. “The Process” will be important in bringing in the right player, talent is just part of it.

HappyDays Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 I've warmed up to Higgins quite a bit. I think he's a good fit for what this offense needs. The more I watch, he reminds me of Mike Williams. Not great separation or speed but he has an outstanding catch radius which is our biggest need on offense. The pass that Duke Williams dropped in the endzone against Houston is his specialty. He will be somewhat limited with his routes in his rookie year but I think Allen will feed him the ball anyways. And John Brown is the perfect complement for his skill set. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCBills Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 If we didn’t already have a good slot WR and burner outside WR, Higgins might not be the guy we should be targeting at 22, but when you look at what we need for Allen.... Higgins, outside of Lamb, might be the best match this offseason. I’ll tell you one thing... Higgins catches that TD that Duke dropped against Houston.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would also put Jeudy and Ruggs first, by a mile. But I have come around to the idea that if we can't get any of the top 3 WRs, Higgins is the next best thing for our offense. I can't get excited about any other WR at pick 22. Higgins could finally be the size AND hands combo that this offense desperately lacked last year. I think Allen naturally wants to throw the ball to his tallest receiver if Duke Williams against Houston is any indication. Higgins would be his favorite target. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldTimer1960 Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 (edited) I don’t understand why many here have such a negative opinion of Higgins. OK, he is probably not in the Lamb, Jeudy, Ruggs tier, but he sure looks like a very good prospect still. The Bills are positioned in the bottom 1/3 of each round - not the top 1/3 as we grew used to for many years. The prospects available at that spot are different than what we are used to.

I don't know maybe I'm wrong but he definitely seemed to be beating guys and creating space in a few different ways, adjusted to the throw really well, and when he did have speed on someone he seemed to know it and use it to his advantage. Though it is a highlight tape. Edited March 7, 2020 by Warcodered 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s big with good hands and radius. Let’s see his speed. If he’s 4.5 we’ll have to go get him at 16. I can’t see the GM waiting to see if he drops. If he’s closer to 4.6, he may be there at 22. I think he’s better for us than some the marquee guys. Go Bills!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He failed year 1 with KB being his only add in a tear down season. Did well very last season getting Beasley and brown on very team friendly contracts that both outperformed imo. he hasn’t taken many swings. That’s probably his biggest issue with WR.
