McBean Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Look back at my post history and you can find mine! ELIJAH MOORE WR OLE MISS I hope he’s there for us at #30 and Beane wastes no time sending the card in. Where do I even begin with this kid? I watched every Ole Miss game and he’s the definition of ELECTRIC! Lane Kiffin has coached at every level and been around some of the best athletes we’ve ever seen. He said that ELIJAH MOORE was the most talented he’s ever coached! Kiffin has been the OC at USC with Reggie Bush, HC of the Raiders, HC at USC, OC at BAMA UNDER SABAN...and he said that MOORE was the best! Imagining Moore in the slot with Beasley and Diggs makes it a matchup nightmare. We would be the Chiefs on offense if not better. Let’s bring Elijah Moore to Buffalo and have our very own version of Tyreek Hill 2.0! Who’s your favorite prospect? 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewEra Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 I love Moore and I’d be happy to have him. He’s probably the smoothest runner I’ve seen in the draft class (if that’s a thing) and love watching him play. That said, I don’t think he’s another version of Tyreek Hill and I hate it when people call anyone “a version of Tyreek hill”. Tyreek is a generational type athlete with explosion, quickness and power that I don’t think I’ve ever seen in a man his size. Hill is an outside WR than can play the slot. Moore is a slot WR that may or may not be able to play outside ( I don’t think he can personally). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Given their ages, I'd be shocked if both Beasley and Sanders are still on the 2022 roster. And not totally surprised if neither were on the roster still. I'd be all for taking a WR early this year and letting him ease into the NFL with plans to really utilize him in 2022 and beyond. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewEra Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 I was banging the table for Antonio Gibson last year. He was my ONE guy. I have quite a few this year, but if I had to pick one, I’d go with his old teammate at Memphis, Kenneth Gainwell. There are better RBs, but we would have to spend higher picks to draft them. I think he’s a perfect compliment to Moss. He might be the best pass catching back in the draft. Runs great routes, can be used on jet sweeps, in the slot or even split out wide. He ha unusual burst and acceleration that makes him a threat to take any touch to the house. For a 195lb back, he runs with good power. His biggest drawback is his size, which imo, would make him an ideal back in a committee....which seems to be McD’s preferred usage in the backfield. If he’s there at the end of rd 3 (yup, another 3rd rd Rb) I hope he’s the pick. D’Wayne Eskeridge and Tyler Shelvin would be my next two guys. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glazeduck Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 (edited) Kyle Pitts. In all seriousness, I don’t think I have *one* guy, Jonathan Adams Jr. might be the closest for me. Here’s my thing: of our positions of need, it’s becoming apparent which are deep and which are shallow, so I hope we draft somewhat accordingly: - RB falls off pretty quick after the first 3 rds - ditto for cb - TE depth is nonexistent - it looks like there will probably be a few edge guys into the 5th (Kaindoh, Ellerson Smith, Weaver) - 1T shouldn’t be an early investment - plenty of intriguing WRs in the later rounds. The more I think about it, the more ok I am with taking Etienne or Harris in the 1st... Edited April 4, 2021 by glazeduck 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But QB and WR are - by far I think - the two most talented position groups on the team right now. If Moore is as good as you think he is, drafting him at #30 still makes sense. But the Bills have a number of needs. It would be interesting - to say the least - if Beane decided not to address one of them in the first round.

HappyDays Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 If Owusu-Koramoah somehow drops to us at pick 30 I'll run to the podium myself to select him. Out of all the players in the draft I feel that he is the best all around fit for the Bills as far as draft pick value, scheme fit, need fit, and athleticism/speed. Add him along with Star coming back and McDermott would have every piece he needs to make this defense elite. In the 2nd my player of choice would be Rondale Moore, in the 3rd it would be Kenneth Gainwell. I think those 3 players at those draft spots would be perfect values and each player would add something that the Bills didn't have last year. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommonCents Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Shelvin. Give me a man in the middle. Star and Kroft are the signings I disliked from the jump. Chase is the best player in the draft but there is zero chance the Bills get him.

We run 4-5 WR sets more than every team in the league not named Arizona. Injuries happen. We need good depth at the position. 6 GOOD WRs minimum. Hodgins isn’t good.....yet.

Obviously a lot still to play out but I think a cb at 30 starts right away. Wallace is maybe barely sufficient and Jackson is an end of roster guy. You could make a pretty strong argument for Freirmuth to start too. AND a RB at 30 would absolutely be our starter... I can see an argument for Moore, or another 4th wr playing a lot only because RB and TE are arguably our worst two positions, but generally speaking, 4 wr packages aren’t overly common as any sort of “base” in the nfl, so they’d still be a sub-package guy and or injury backup. If you assume he plays maybe half the snaps, I’m not sure his contribution, relative to what a later wr or Hodgins would give you, is worth that high of a draft pick, compared to what you could get at cb, TE or RB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we’re not needing stars — and by the looks of it, Diggs and davis should have us fairly set for the time being, I don’t think those picks need to be premium picks. I would also caution using our 4 and 5 wide sets as the basis for your thesis when our RBs and TEs both suck, what else are you going to do? That felt like Daboll leaning into our relative strength, rather than any innovative new approach to long term winning football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As think we need help at CB and DE more. I could also see getting an Olineman on day 2 over WR and like a TE and RB too.

TPS Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Good question! This year is really tough for me, given their draft position and the drop off in talent after about 20. In the simulator, I always took CB Newsome if he was there. He has moved up the rankings to where he's gone by pick 30 now (by the way, kudos to @GunnerBill as he was high on Newsome from the get-go). The Bills have a lot of areas where a stud pick could help. I'd be okay with Harris, a WR who falls (Bateman?), an Edge, and a CB. Then there's someone like JOK, who I voted for in the TSW mock. The best move might even be to move back and pick up another pick in the first 3 rounds. That said, I would really like to see the Bills pick either Dickerson or Meinherz as a the heir to Morse. Too many desires and not enough picks... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
