Magnum Force Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 We have a top 5 WR in Diggs, a top 5 TE in Knox and we also now have Howard… good WRs in Davis, McKenzie and now Crowder… adding another top WR in the 1st is overkill and a luxury pick. Our RBs are small and slow…Josh Allen is our best running threat. Singletary ranks as the 25th to 31st best starting RB in most polls. An impact RB with speed, size, blocking and receiving ability makes our offense as a whole dangerous. It makes the WRs better because of the impact and presence he would bring to this offense. I agree CB is a must also…McDuffie would be a steal at pick 25 if he were there. But Breece Hall would make an immediate impact in this offense in many ways. 2 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFanForever19 Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 (edited) Not with a hole at CB2 and Tre coming off an ACL. If he (or Kenneth Walker) were there in the 2nd, I'd give serious thought to pulling the trigger. But that's only if Ryan Bates re-signs. If he doesn't, we not only need depth on the OL, we need a Starting Guard. If I'm taking a RB, I'd be looking as high as Round 3. Isaiah Spiller or James Cook, if either are there. Zamir White or Rachaad White in Round 4. Edited March 22, 2022 by BillsFanForever19 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think DJ sees so few “holes” that he thinks they could lob a late 1st on an upgrade at RB. I agree on CB … for the moment. Still over a month to go. I’m going WR round 2 or later. Way too deep of a draft at that position. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaCrispy Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 I wouldn’t be surprised if the Bills took Hall in the 1st, and a CB in the 2nd- especially if McD is serious about wanting to reduce Allen’s designed runs... After all, the main reason Allen is forced to run is because of the inconsistent production from Singletary and Moss... 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Stampede Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 We can’t go into the draft needing to get a starting cb. I don’t think the Bills operate that way. Remember, they were very comfortable with Cam Lewis if Dane Jackson couldn’t handle the job. It’s possible they aren’t as desperate at CB as we think. Don’t get me wrong they will likely draft 2, but I don’t know if they’re looking for an immediate starter. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CNY315 Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 (edited) CB is still my first choice but I'm warming up to the idea Green or Johnson. I know you can get a good IOL in later rounds but after Saffold and (maybe) Bates we still look pretty weak there.

billieve420 Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 (edited) No thanks to RBs in the 1st. If you can get some value by trading down and picking one I will hate pick less. Denver for years could take an undrafted RB and churn out 1000 yd runners with ease. That is really all this offense needs not a superstar at position.

Buffalo_Stampede Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 The enticing thing about running back at 25 is you probably get the #1 player at the position and you get him at a very nice contract through his first 5 years. All other positions besides TE are extremely high cap hits year 5. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd expect the same after taking a CB in Round 1 in 2022. If the plan were to sign a Starter in FA, that would have been addressed early. The fact that we were never in on one says to me Round 1 has always been the plan for opposite Tre. I believe we may sign a veteran like Joe Haden on a 1-yr deal if he's willing to come cheap to add to a 1st Round CB to help fill in the void for a few games without Tre and then to be depth alongside Dane Jackson. But a Stephon Gilmore, James Bradberry type signing isn't happening. We can't afford it and we're already paying Tre big money. Truly feel the plan has always been to upgrade Levi at CB2 and have them under an affordable Rookie deal by drafting in Round 1. Heck, if we continue to fill holes with bargains and the roster is in pretty good shape - it wouldn't shock me to see Beane move up in Round 1 for one of the top two CB's. Especially if one of them slips a little. Edited March 23, 2022 by BillsFanForever19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I live for the NFL draft. It is an official family holiday 🙂 I love the draft, it’s my favorite part of the off-season outside of FA/trades. I want Breece Hall to be a Bill really bad, but I’m not expecting it. Only a handful of players that I’ve wanted have been drafted. Allen, White, and Spiller. I wanted Jonathan Taylor so badly, and I just had that can’t miss vibe. It’s the same feeling I’ve had with Breece Hall. I feel like he does everything we are looking for in a RB. I understand we have other needs, but I just want that dynamic weapon to use as another strategic piece to counter pass defense agressive teams playing Allen. So that way Allen can feast as teams will have to game plan around a great RB. Whoever drafts Breece is going to get a good one. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnum Force Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 (edited) Why did we sign Von Miller for big money when we could have signed both a top end FA CB and a top end FA OLineman to fill holes for the same amount?

Need to be able to pass and defend the pass at a high level. Bills need CB or help to keep Josh upright from the oline more than they need a running back in the first round. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because let's face it, CB is a far, far greater need and value (which is subjective for the most part, and it wouldn't be a reach to take any of the projected 1st round CBs...in the 1st round, and there is bound to be 1 or 2 still left at 25) than RB. It would be a different story if Tre were healthy, but he's not, and a FA CB might not be happening. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
