MJS Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 The whole point of BPA is to not worry about position. You take the highest person on your board at that point. Could be a safety, could be a RB, could be anything. Just get the most talented player you can. But I will say, we need more linebacker depth, better pass rush, more depth at RB, and potentially an upgrade to one of the oline positions. There's plenty to target in the draft. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gobills404 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 We don't need to spend a 2nd round pick to get it, but I think a second quality RB is our biggest need right now. Singletary is awesome, but he's not a "do-it-all" feature back. Plus if he ever got hurt our rushing attack would be in big trouble. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Center (can get great ones in the 50s) The problem with this is that FA is not done and until we are up to the draft - it is hard to speculate on the BPA and need ratio. Right now they need more RB, DE, and LB depth and could use a young WR. All could be in play with the 2nd round pick. If they pick up Jordan Howard and/or another CB (Harris) or they grab another OT or LB as depth in the next few days - then the focus shifts to WR, DE, maybe a center. Beane is once again filling holes in FA and that allows him to truly draft the BPA on the board - regardless of position. Then it will be who is falling and where to draft him. Position is irrelevant- it will be the top tiered guy left and you can’t know that until the draft. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgrochester55 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 At this point, I think that Buffalo has enough at each position where they should truly go BPA in each round. Many of the positions with less depth are ones where mid to late round pick can land a good player. Tackle, and running back depth, along with an upgrade in backup quarterback are what I would like to see addressed the most. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat68 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 (edited) I felt like at 22 Buffalo misses out on a blue chip prospect. Trading it made sense. Getting a wr to grow with Allen was a big need. Diggs is that. I still think the offense needs more weapons and day 2 has multiple. Whether its Hamler, Claypool, Higgins or a top Rb those are all better picks at 54 not 22.

The Bills need to improve their over all depth, and so my only criteria for Day Two picks are prospects who are likely to develop into good starters, and possibly more. Position is irrelevant.

mjt328 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Free Agency isn't even 24 hours old yet, so things are bound to change. At this point: - The Quinton Spain extension means starting O-Line is pretty much set. - The Stefon Diggs trade knocks WR from top of the need list, down to the bottom. In my opinion, the biggest need on the team is now Edge Rusher. We have basically swapped Shaq Lawson for Mario Addison in the DE rotation. But with Jerry Hughes aging and Trent Murphy always hurt, I would really like to see another good player in the mix. Josh Norman was a nice depth addition, but we still need one more CB. Depending on what happens with Jordan Phillips, we may need another DT for the interior rotation. We need another RB to pair with Devon Singletary. And I wouldn't mind another TE to pair with Dawson Knox. And that folks, is pretty much it. If Beane can make 4-5 more moves this week, we could walk into the draft without a single glaring need on the roster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob in STL Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 BPA is always a nice place to be so lets see what else Free Agency brings. Right now I think we still have a need to get younger and better at DE/Edge rush and at RB. If not further addressed in free agency I would look at those positions in rounds 2 and 3. I think OT, CB, S, are all possibilities too if the right player is there. On draft day it will be hard to miss out on that pick at 22 but Diggs will plug in immediately as a proven #1 and at a great contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 We are going RB or WR with our first pick. I am almost certain DE RB OT WR backup QB secondary thats my priority list. Bpa always.
