I thought we still had picks tomorrow? Our OL is not terrible, but I hope continuity helps, and we keep getting better. Still time to add talent in the draft, and trade some future cuts for late round picks......again. I’m good with that. I’m happy with our “process” here.

In Back To The Future, Marty McDly went back 30 years into the past. You've done that outlining the strategy needed to win games in the 1990 NFL because ball control doesn't matter when your opponent scores 30+ like KC or perhaps BAL can do. Didn't Houston just score 19 points on Buffalo in something like 1.5 quarters? How are base DE's and slower RB's going to help Buffalo score? Both of our RB's have high touchdown production in college Our first round pick was a high touchdown production WR Our QB is a duel threat who gets into the end zone There is only one ball....what do you want? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big C Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Think this is a good BPA pick for them. We have a good tandem here. All the best teams have multiple backs that they can lean on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want their legs and upper body to be bigger not their height. Yeldon is 6' 2" and easy to tackle. Those thick legged, squatty types with a low center of gravity give DBs cause to make a business decision every time he squares them up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, we didn't know for sure he would be there, but overall, it's a solid one-two selection for picking fairly late in the second and third. spot on, I felt the exact same way but lifted now.

Logic Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 (edited) People saying they were hoping for more speed from the RB pick: I get it, but that guy wasn’t on the board at good value at 86. Besides, Moss had 16 plays of 25 yards or more last year. That tells me he CAN make explosive plays. Edited April 25, 2020 by Logic 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Mantis_Toboggan Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 “Home run” ability is so overrated. Even the best backs break off really long runs for TDS what, 2 or 3 times a year? Singletary had 7 carries over 20 yards last year on 151 carries... the top running back taken in last years draft, Josh Jacobs had 8 of 20+, on 242 attempts. I think Motor n’ Moss are going to be an excellent 1-2 punch. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djp14150 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 2 minutes ago, BillsVet said: Who cares? There were 15 WR's taken, 6 of which came in the first round. Another 9 in rounds 2-3. RB's are a devalued asset in the modern NFL. And it shows year after year when perhaps 1-2 are taken in the first round. Why are they devalued? teams have shifted to more of a backs by commute in part because one gets tired the other reason is Data has shown fal off with ball touches. A RB could go through this after 4-5 yrs. as a result teams look at a 1st and say I shoukd have this player with my team for 8+ yrs. most RBs don’t last that long as a full time player.

I think we are clearly a better team adding solid contributions into 2 holes tonight. I think that generally fans were hoping for a guy that could score from anywhere or create turnovers on any play and instead got 2 steady role players that take air out of the ball and reduce plays in a game instead. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And this is EXACTLY the way everyone should be looking at this draft. If the draft stops here, I still feel very comfortable saying the 2020 Bills will be better than the 2019 Bills. But we still have more draft picks. And you just gotta KNOW Mcbeane will find another good player in the later rounds... probably a WR at least since this WR class supposedly goes like 50 deep or something in terms of draftable prospects. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAJBobby Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 For the ones that say what is this 1985. people hear know I hate 3 things. Old Football and Paying Or drafting High RBs and Tyrod but we don’t have to talk about that anymore. Moss being added to Singletary in the third round DOESNT trigger me. We need a powerful back. Singletary needs someone to spell him. They didn’t use a top pick instead waiting until 3rd. So yep I am good with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly the Dog Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 The Bills two picks are another in an endless series of draft rounds where strict BPA is never ever true. It just so happens that the BPA in both rounds just happened to be our two clear biggest needs? It's never BPA, unless the BPA just happens to be a main position of need AND you hadn't already picked at that position AND already looked down draft at more players who may be available at position of need. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
