 so you spend a 2nd on a backup DE??

 

Dobbins is better than Motor, and you need two RB’s today. 

 

Taking a limited ceiling guy like we did is awful.  

Backup to who? You have not need 2 high draft picks when you need to throw the ball more... Come in man learn how to play

Why pass up on elite offensive talent, for a guy who’s barely a edge rusher lol

 

terrible pick with who was on the board. Really disappointed with Beane 

Crazy wrong- all 3 bleacher report guys raved over the pick. First player I’ve seen A+ ratings on. They said 1st round value in 2nd round and will be better than Lawson was last year in his 1st year

If DE is our biggest need why’d you draft us a LB?

You can get a decent RB ot WR in the 3rd.  It’s harder to get DE later in a draft.

LOL. Allen, Edmunds, Oliver, Knox, Epenesa, Ford were all need picks.  The only one that may have not been a need was Singletary.  

 

Well I'm not talking about Allen or Edmunds.... but Oliver, Ford, Knox, Joseph and Jaquan Johnson were all top 6 of the best left on my big board last year at the point the Bills took them. And Epenesa was 4th this year.

fills a need. not a flashy offensive pick like I wanted but tremendous value to get him at 54 when most mocks had us getting him at 21

Agreed, its not flashy and we had to wait so long for a pick but he can start and make a difference immediately. You could prematurely say our first 2 picks are starters and Diggs is no doubt a game changer. Good draft so far

I’m good with it.  Admit I was hoping for Dobbins, but the drop off from Dobbins to RD3/4 RBs is nothing compared to the drop off from Epenesa to RD3/4 DL. 
 

For a DL that relies on a strong, talented, versatile rotation over an elite player or two and some filler, AJ makes a lot of sense.

If you're saying Oliver wasn't BPA last year then please spare us from any of your draft opinions.
