thebandit27 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Uninspiring pick, but he fits their prototype LDE. I wasn’t a big AJE guy, so I’ll be in “trust the process” mode on this one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what we heard during interviews with the offensive players who faced him was a very different story. ... this is fantastic! thank you. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldn’t have been unreasonable or a wasted pick. May as well say he’s our 4th DE. It’s a position where guys get lots of reps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't understand how people dislike this pick. Yeah it makes no sense. Dude was a beast and huge value where we got him and probably the biggest need on the roster with our starting edge guys 32 and 34 respectively.

VW82 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 I'm a big fan of guys who dominate in multiple sports. The fact he was all state in football, basketball, discus, etc. bodes well. Shades of Big Kyle? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DE was a bigger need and AJ was the BPA on the board IMO. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAJBobby Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 So with 22 and 54 Bills get Stefon Diggs and another 1st round talent for over 11 months (until combine) 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

section122 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Really surprises to not see more people really happy with this pick. If you are a bpa person he was clearly in the top 5 bpa according to pretty much every ranking. If you are a need guy, de was certainly a need as the current depth is very long in the tooth. He fills a role in the mcd defense and appears to be a culture fit. There are 6 more picks to go. Plenty of time to find that rb to split the load with singletary. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

transplantbillsfan Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 So weird that people are upset with this pick. Buffalo only had one glaring need after we acquired Diggs: DE I don't watch much college ball, but I know this kid was being mocked to us in the 1st. Sounds like he's ultra talented but just didn't play a ton in college. If we don't draft another player, I'm excited about this team. Those clamoring for us to draft an RB like Dobbins in round 2 are missing the value of RBs and the gems you can get from smaller schools later: see Devon Singletary. And who knows? Maybe McDermott and Beane are happier with the RB room than we are. Maybe they saw Wade really progress in his learning of the NFL game last year? I'm almost expecting OL in round 3. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
