Hebert19 Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 (edited) He has us taking Jordan Davis DT (Georgia) As a Dawgs fan this is my perfect pick. 1. He's a physical freak. 6'6 340 and quick off ball. 2. Allows us to cut or trade Star post June 1 and save cap space. (Use this to restructure diggs) 3. Perfect pairing for Oliver. Eats blockers and occupies space. 4. Will make Edmunds and Milano better. Thoughts on pick if he's there?

BigdaddyinOrlando Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Would love that! Besides receiver he would be my next position and would take him instead of receiver if he was there! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddaryl Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 (edited) That would be a real good pick.... but at the same time that would be a lot of high draft picks on the DL in the last 3 drafts However a freakish sized behemoth for the middle of the DL is still welcomed IMO...

msw2112 Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 I'm not a Georgia fan, but I would love to have this guy on the Bills. Getting him into the rotation with Phillips (who I would like to re-sign) and Oliver on the DL would be a pretty lethal combination. I can't imagine he'll still be on the board when the Bills pick. I also love the GA linebacker Dean, although I don't think the Bills have a high need for a LB and he also won't be available by the time the Bills pick. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can certainly use help in shoring up the run defense. If it helps save cap space than that is another plus. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrDawkinstein Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 I'm fine with it if he's actually there and Beane actually picks him. It would mean he's cleared any concerns Beane would have regarding Davis's conditioning and commitment. He'd probably be better off in our rotation anyways, and #25 is easier to risk on a big guy with concerns than #3 overall (Dareus). Love him as a player when he is on and active. He would be just what our DL needs, physically. Just not sure about the head and the heart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if the lack of effort was heart or fitness. Having said that...I see him as a 50% of snap guy from day 1. Phillips and Oliver need tp play more snaps in rotation imo.

LABILLBACKER Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 I like Davis alot. His size and quickness is undeniable. Hopefully make us forget Star real quick. I think if Linderbaum falls to 25, he becomes the pick. If he's gone and Davis is still there you gotta get him. Booth (CB) and Jameson Williams (WR) would also be considerations. 6 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Summary Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Another poster made me aware of him. As much as people don't want yet another high draft pick spent on the DL, we really haven't spent one on the 1-Tech which is (to me) a different position than that of DE and Oliver's position. The Bills committed to the smaller 3-tech and MLB that struggles to disengage the opponent's OL, so they really have to firm this position up. I know the modern trend is to have your DTs be near the same pass rush threat as your DE's, but somebody has to own their real estate. Davis may not be a pass rusher, but I think he helps the pass rush indirectly. Were the Bills to shore up corner and/or interior OL with free agents, I'd be happy with this pick. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One could argue that conditioning comes from having the heart to put in the extra work. Although, in all fairness, I'm not sure it's possible for a guy that big who moves that fast and strong to not get winded quickly. Up to Beane to figure it out in interviews I guess. I'd see him rotating with Phillips and playing next to Oliver. Which brings me to thinking about Oliver and Davis out there at the same time...

Kirby Smart's Georgia D evolved from a typical 3-4 to this "mint" formation where the 2 DEs in the 3 Down linemen play the inside shoulder of respective OT aka a 4I technique. Jordan Davis played exclusively as the 0 or Nose technique here. The ILBs could be smaller and faster to help in pass D against Spread teams.

I obviously have no idea who will be available or what the best option would be, but I am 100% on board with winning the line of scrimmage on both sides off the ball. Maybe he does fall to #25 because it’s not a “premium position” and he’ll only get so many snaps? IDK 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coffeesforclosers Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Seems like a McBean pick; draft somebody with off-the-charts physical gifts and trust the organization to build up their technique and mentality. My guess is they move on from Hughes, Addison, Butler, maybe Epenesa. That leaves Star, Zimmer, Rousseau, Obada, Oliver and Philipps. If there's a DL coming, I'd love it to be Jordan Davis. Kromer probably has guys he wants too, and it'd be good to see this team get a little bit meaner and a little bit more vicious to compliment Josh.

st pete gogolak Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 This is an example of the stupidity of having the free agency period before the draft. I don't know how good Davis is but if we resign Phillips to a mulit-year deal at starter money and if we get minimal savings by cutting Star, are we really going to draft a DT in Round #1? I doubt it. Does anyone know the reason why the draft follows free agency? Is it NFLPA (free agents make out better) or the owners? I just don't get it.

BADOLBILZ Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Just pick up 6' 6" 340# Jordan PHILLIPS off the street when the Cardinals release him in the next month if you want a player that size with "off the charts physical gifts" that you can't trust to live up to them. At least that Jordan has actually played well in the NFL at times and would likely be dirt cheap. Or wait until late in the draft and take a shot at one of the other equally gigantic but unsung DT's that are available in this draft. Save your #1 pick for someone that plays a position with a $30M aav ceiling because there are always good run defending DT's available for reasonable rates in UFA. 7 1 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
