YoloinOhio Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 (edited) Dobbins and Taylor are 3rd round RBs this is a bad draft to need a QB for various reasons No one from this heralded WR class will become an elite pro. There will be starters but no perrenial all pros Edited April 17, 2020 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slight variation on this - if there is someone that ends up being an elite WR, it's Michael Pittman. I lurve him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was along the lines of what I was going with. After Young, the next 3 edge guys (Chaisson, Gross-Matos, Epenesa) are not very good. There will be DEs drafted later that will be more productive early. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rico Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 (edited) Stay far away from high-motor lunch-pailers unless they play QB, OL, TE, FB, K, P, or long-snapper. You may miss out on 1 or 2 players. but it's safer in the long run. Edited April 17, 2020 by Rico Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find the hype over the WR class a tad strange, to be honest. There's only a select few guys that I've watched that make me think they'll be of a high level. Hamler and Jefferson included, it's more a case of "if they find the perfect fit, they could be productive enough to make a nice career for themselves" with a ton of the other guys. In terms of future projection, I wonder how many of them end up being seen as replacement level once you have to give them a second contract.

JohnC Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 The Bills will draft a DB with their first pick. I read WGR's Louie DiBiase column about the draft and it seemed like a reasonable proposition. One player the article cited was A.J. Terrell from Clemson. If he's on the board McBeane will immediately pounce. I have said this before but I would love to see Buffalo select the running back from BC, AJ Dillon. He's a big N/S runner who would be a good complement to Singletary. https://wgr550.radio.com/articles/opinion/three-cornerbacks-who-could-fit-the-bills-at-pick-no-54 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You gonna play him in the slot? He could be a leading NFL slot receiver. I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up being highly productive there. I just can't value that in the first round from a draft perspective. If you wanna play him outside you are wasting your time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleeding Bills Blue Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 I'm looking forward to a lot of head scratchers in this draft. There will be players unanimously mocked in rounds like 3 and 4, going in the 1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrEpsYtown Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 I think Justin Herbert winds up being the best QB in the class, and I know that is not a popular take. But a team needs to let him sit 8 games at least. If he gets thrown into the fire, he won’t make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will be much more inclined to stuck with Tuhrod for 1/2 season than Miami will be to stick with Fitz. Fitz’s history of 2nd seasons starting for the same team is very bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daboll knows exactly who he is and I can’t see them 1) using a valuable asset on another QB they would need to spend time really developing while they are still developing josh and 2) using a roster spot on a 3rd QB because imo they need a vet behind Josh (hopefully they replace barkley though) on a team with high aspirations. If josh goes down there is no way anyone would feel comfortable rolling a rookie Jalen hurts out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
