Well, our draft day starts today.  I like you’re mocks, especially the one juxtaposed to KC.

[Thurman#1]

Getting a good player? Yeah, maybe but maybe not. But surely there'll be plenty of good ones still available.

 

But probably 60% of those guys will underachieve expectations.

Uche is not on that list and I think he’s got a serious chance of being the pick....

 

Based on that list I counted 19 players I don’t even have 2nd round grades on.

 

That leaves 31 players. Add Uche that list, there’s 32.

Playmakers. 
 

I want more playmakers.

[eball]

Agreed, I just looked at the 1st round recap (didn't stay up to watch the whole thing last night) and I'd say the reach for CBs and the extra QB taken were all things Beane enjoyed watching.  Tonight will be fun.

Agree and I can definitely see Chinn or Dugger being the pick there.  Good players, but I'm not feeling safety that early either. 

[nucci]

it's the 54th pick....there should be good players still available

[Canadian Bills Fan]

Cole Kmet, Tight End, Notre Dame

 

 

Would love this pick!!

[Brianmoorman4jesus]

I want the best TE in the draft. That’s the 1 position on this roster I feel we are almost nowhere at. I know Knox made a few angry runs and got people all excited, but he dropped passes left and right and was invisible for weeks at a time. This franchise has never really had a truly excellent TE. Identify the best guy in the draft and find a way to make it happen. We are set at WR and the Oline is in good shape. We do need a # 2 RB but an excellent TE puts us into elite offense territory. Make it happen please.

[Yantha]

I've got 3 guys top of mind in round 2.

 

DT Neville Gallimore, Oklahoma:  We have to stop the run, and our interior D-line is pretty up there in age.  A youth infusion is needed.

 

WR Michael Pittman, USC:  There are plenty of WR's that we could draft in round 3 and still have great VALUE, but if Gallimore and Akers are gone, I'm looking at Pittman.

 

RB Cam Akers, Florida State:  I think he's the perfect compliment to Singletary, and would bring some thunder in short yard and red zone situations.

I want a TE as well.  Take a good look at my sleeper pick from Stanford, PARKINSON.

I would.  Even if the top 3 are taken, I don't think that losing picks in a trade up would justify an RB pick since Singletary averages 5.1ypc.  We just need a complement, and I like a few beyond the top 3.

Check out:

Eno Benjamin, Arizona State

I wouldn't mind edge rusher, but a safety on this team? When is he playing? 

Hey Scott,

I followed the Chargers a wile back and when they drafted Eric Weddle, I felt the same way.  They had two very good starters at the time and wondered about need. What they did in his rookie year is play him as the DIME back (and on the field an awful lot).  Then, since the safeties were getting a little old (like our are both going to be over 30), he was the primary backup and ended up playing due to injuries to starters (that happens more often when you are over 30).  I think it would be a smart move to add insurance at the position, and "heir apparent", as they say.

[Yantha]

1 minute ago, ScottLaw said:

Singletary needs a decent back to share the load with... he isn't a workhorse back. 

I totally agree Scott, but this team has draft needs at multiple positions, and I just think that a trade up would be a mistake.  I think we need those pics!  I really want Cam Akers!!  but just hope he drops.

These are my exact thoughts. Duggar would be a guy to primarily backup Poyer and Hyde, either one of which can easily be injured long term or short term. I would love to add that type of depth at a position that I view as very important.

It is going to be interesting to see how the top of the 2nd round falls...man, there are some good players out there.  At the end of the day I believe Beane will stay true to his evaluations and go BPA unless he sees a trade opportunity for somebody who has fallen farther than anticipated.

[Yantha]

Yea. Just rather they go a primer position or skills position. Not a safety. I'd hate it honestly. 

I wouldn't want a safety at 54 either.  I see some depth in this draft and at least 3 that I'd like in rounds 3 onwards, like Brandon Jones, Texas, and both of the top S prospects from Alabama.

Except he absolutely was a workhorse back in college.  If Dobbins, or god forbid Swift, fall to the Bills it would be hard to pass up but I don't think this is as urgent a need as others do.

[Yantha]

Curious what you guys think about DT Neville Gallimore at 54.

[CorkScrewHill]

I really want Bobby Boucher Jr. LB for South Central Lousiana St. Though from a small school he has the NCAA record for most sacks in a game and in a season. He has a serious nasty streak. If they can't get him, I will trust to the judgment of the Bills brain trust.

[Rock-A-Bye Beasley]

Fulton, Gross-Matos, and Shenault are worth a trade up. 

[billsherd]

If Diggs is gone it will be either

Zack Baun, Linebacker/Edge, Wisconsin

OR

Laviska Shenault Junior, Wide Receiver, Colorado

That's fairly bold, considering neither are probable to make it to 54.
