Call your shot. Will the Bills first round pick be attending the draft in person?

  1. 1. 21 attendees and we are pick 25. Will one of these players be selected by the Bills?

Voted no. You can take out the QB's. Take out Zion, whom I don't believe we will draft in the 1st. Take out the 3 OT's who will surely be gone. Hutchinson, Thibs, Johnson, those three DE's gone. Gardner, Hamilton, gone. All four WR's, VERY likely gone. Jordan Davis will be gone. Devin Lloyd will be gone. Basically the only options there from that list are Gordon, Wyatt, Karlaftis, and Dean. I don't see us using a 1st on the DL unless Davis somehow falls to us. Gordon or Dean possibly, but I don't think so. 

I agree we probably won't draft Zion Johnson, but if he is available at 25 we should consider him.

 

The reason we probably won't take him is Brandon Beane made it clear he wants to use his 1st round pick on a "premier position".   Offensive guard / center would not be a premier position, in his eyes.

 

The case for drafting Zion is a) Rodger Saffold is a one year player.   b)  Zion is very good...and smart as hell.   He could be a guard or center for Josh for the next 10 years.  There is a lot of value in that. 

 

I don't know how Beane, and McDermott, feel about Kyler Gordon.  He seems like a fit, - wonder how McBeane feels about him.

It’s time to add nuclear firepower to the offense. WR & RB first two rounds

Do you feel our offense is lacking?

 

Josh and the Bills have one of the best offenses in the NFL.  (Sure it would be nice to put 50 points every single game...but I don't think we suck either)

 

PS If there was a dynamic, can't miss, running back in this class, I would love to draft him.   
Not sure how good Breece Hall is.....

I would be good with Ken Walker III at pick 57.

The more I think about it, the more I believe it will be DB in the 1st, possibly being trade up if there's a run.  The hole at DB with Tre out is just too big and this is our Super Bowl window.  I know that we've made something out of nothing with DB's, but it's a passing league and we can't hope a later round guy pans out.  We need someone proven

I expect 2 DB's and a WR in the first 3 rounds, I'm just not sure which order. (I'm trusting Beane to find the value) I am also not sure if it will be 2 corners, or a corner and a safety.

I’m sure this was posted somewhere but it gives some more clarity based on percentages of the odds. it’s a few years old from 2015 but the stats are interesting.  In conclusion, 

 

Safest first-round picks: Safety, linebacker, interior offensive line

I too believe there is a good chance it is DB in the first.

 

Although I don't subscribe to a "Super Bowl" window.   As long as Josh Allen is our quarterback, we are going to be a contender.  We are not losing any player in the next 2 years that will cause us to fell out of contention. (Assuming we are drafting wisely and always refreshing positions like CB, Safety, tight end, etc)

 

Go Bills.
