This is like the millionth year in a row. World didn’t get to see Beane’s dope draft cave! They spent 30 mins on Hurts. I was super annoyed the next QB came off right before our pick. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills do not have cap issues (20m+ left) and will not be cutting Murphy. Now, they won’t resign him after this year but won’t cut him now 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get a feeling Fournette or Hyde will be a Bill soon. I would call Jags and offer our 5th right now, if Beane has not already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo716 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 13 minutes ago, Captain_Quint said: He takes Shaq's place. Is he a good edge setter or more of a pass rusher? He is an edge disrupter . With good rush moves and a bullrush He won't blow by you but will win at the point of attack at the LoS. Had great size and length Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norcalbillsfan Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 I would have liked Dobbins as well but from a long term and cap space stance this is an excellent pick. Look at the way the NFL is going, how much are we paying for decent play from Murphy, and RBs are a dime a dozen these days. Getting a starting DE on a rookie contract is delicious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan in Cleveland Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Get younger on on the DL and add an edge player. I'm fine with this pick. I would have preferred an OLB with more pass rush if going defense. I also would have gone with Dobbins but this is much better than OL or DB.

VW82 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Hard to see a scenario where this guy doesn't make it. Strong bull rusher with a mean streak. This looks like a McD pick all the way. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biggerdaddynj Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Value pick—can’t get upset about that (I know it’s not flashy—that was the Diggs’ trade—gotta trust in McBeane—earned our trust). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orlando Tim Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 14 minutes ago, Alphadawg7 said: At 54, AJ Espensa is a steal. Does that guarantee he will be a stud? No, but value wise, this was a great pick at 54 as most mocks had him going in round 1, and almost all mocks that didn't have us taking a WR at 22 had us taking AJ. Love this pick. He's a beast. Now go get AJ Dillon in the 3rd and I will be on cloud 9 until tomorrow. I assume you watched him- what I read reminds of what I read about Lawson when he came out- is that a good comparison But without the injury?

Rigotz Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 It’s shocking that people aren’t absolutely thrilled with this pick. First round caliber talent who had tons of production in college and fills a position of need. My guess is they wanted a “sexy” pick like WR or RB, which can easily be found in the third or fourth. 3 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerJ Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 High floor, not a real high ceiling. He's thought of as strong, but interestingly at the combine, his bench press was tied for the worst in the group. Most already know his 40 time and 10 yard split were pretty poor. I think he has some ability to get stronger and to become more explosive with strength and conditioning work. He'll be a solid player, but I don't expect him to0 become any kind of a star. We'll see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
