I’m sure the Titans are regretting taking Jeffrey Simmons in the first, huh? He was never the guy is was in college although to his credit he carved out a decent career after leaving Buffalo. Good for Titans IDC still a NO for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I’m saying is if you have extra 1st rounder you are more likely to take the better player even though injured over the best healthy player. You view this as a bonus pick and not necessarily needing to contributing now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But thats because all reports that I’m familiar with seem to say his 4:3 speed will be unaffected and that he should be ready in Sept, Oct at the latest. I don’t really see him as an injured player around which there are serious questions as far as the draft is concerned and thats why I doubt he falls to us.

Golden Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 I’m thinking Gunner nailed it. In Beans hour long presser recently, he talks about making our strength stronger. If Williams is there right before the Pats pick, I’m just not certain the Bills trade down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope Williams would work out for Buffalo, but for some reason I am having flashbacks of Willis McGahee, lol. Who knows? McGahee was a good back. He just hated being in Buffalo. Better to have flashbacks of Thurman Thomas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlbillsfan1975 Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Williams is never making it to the Bills. I wish, but think your mock will change and have him in the top 15 based off info on his rehab progress. I’ve seen Williams mocked to the Bills in a few of these so far. Makes me think it will never happen. Teams just saw how Burrow and Chase changed the Bengals in one season. Williams is that kind of game changer.

Immediate impact is what I'm looking for in this draft and he's it Not if he’s still rehabbing an ACL tear. That’s a 9-12 month rehab 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the only reason he’d be there. If he is, we should jump on it. We likely won’t be in position to get a WR talent like that via Draft for the next decade. Im ok waiting for him to come back mid-season or so…. Just get him ready for the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So your definition of “immediate impact” is “maybe come back mid to end season”? I’m not arguing about the draft choice, I don’t follow college football and have no business having an opinion. I’m just pointing out the contradiction between looking for immediate impact, and drafting a player who likely won’t play for most of the season.

I never said “immediate impact” Im in favor of the pick because - due to him not being able to play immediately - we may be able to get him.

Im sure we can manage 8 games without him, and then get some juice on the back end of the season, and time to catch some rhythm for playoffs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo could absorb that risk on a late 1st rd pick. Edited January 31, 2022 by djp14150 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I mentioned elsewhere Pickens saw the field eight months after surgery. Dominick Blaylock also back after eight.These guys are not normal human beings and the get the benefit of world class rehab. Thats why I doubt he gets past receiver needy teams before we pick. Edited January 31, 2022 by starrymessenger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
