Which is what Spencer Brown was and is why I understood that.  I guess I’m the only one who is worried about our interior D Line even if Rousseau and Basham can move around, I’d like a pure DT to go along.  And, a CB to develop is nice too.  I understand building for the future especially with big contracts coming up sooner than later.

But my response was towards your "win now" aspect of your post. Which inside lineman would you plug in at this point of the draft that helps the team "win now"? ......there isn't one thus nearly ANY pick the Bills pick now are about potential, injury concerns or niche players.

I generally agree with this, but the Bills were so close last year. Big needs were a dynamic speed guy, DB , TE, DE. So far, they have added all developmental guys, who aren't expected to have much of an impact this year.  The running game, which was subpar last year, has all the same guys back. So those guys have to get better, I guess.

A SB window can close very quickly.

Okay.... my point still stands. Who would you have picked in the 5th round that would have been a day 1 starter to help the win now narrative?....I will wait.

People I think may be sleeping on Lamp. He is the most talented interior offensive linemen that we have. I love his signing and I think he may surprise some people. Also, even though he hasn’t done it, I think his skill set projects very well to center. So he gives us versatility. I think he starts at one of the guard spots. 

One can hope, one can surely hope.

Basham isn’t a development guy. Breida is a dynamic speed guy, already here. I don’t know the plan yet on TE other than it’s not a huge part of their offense and they are still trying to get ertz

I am not talking just about the 5th round. They had picks in rounds 1-3, and took two developmental DE's. There were plenty of other options.

Okay...then that's more than fair. I was just going off the context that your post was immediately after the team's 5th round pick and not after one of the previously aforementioned picks you referred to.

Gunner any thoughts on Tay Gowan? Seems like a good fit. 

 

Yep. He is one of the two corners I have left on my board. He fits Buffalo. Zone only guy who could come and potentially give us at least what Levi Wallace has for the next 4 years on a cheap rookie deal.

Think it's safe to say this FO will never let Allen take a beating

Yeah great to see. Like other posters have mentioned, we didn't lose often last season, but when we did, it was usually because we were out-matched physically especially on the line of scrimmage. This draft appears to be trying to correct that issue and I like that all of these are great athletes with huge untapped potential.

Is the off-season over?

Basham is not a developmental DE. 
 

Rousseau is called that simply because he has a crazy amount of untapped potential.  
 

Both will be in the DL rotation this year.

You can get a player in the 5th who can play now, don’t think anyone is saying they expected a day one starter in the 5th.  You are the one saying that.  Relax, there are many valid points that people are making that do not include the assertion that our 5th round pick will be a day one starter.  
 

Now, as for our three 6th round picks, I expect all-pros.

Okay, Basham is a high-effort guy who lacks elite speed and explosiveness (a position where the Bills doubled down).  Breida? For all his speed, he is injured a lot and has moved around quite a bit. Little impact with Miami.

Garret Wallow

TCU

OLB

 

Height:

6'2''

Weight:

215

 

So this is who the Texans moved up for ??

 

I like him. Before Milano signed he was one of the guys I thought was a low cost shot to replace him.

Slaton gone.
