Wanted an elite Athlete weapon in one of these two rounds. Got that elite athlete weapon. 
 

now OL would work in 3rd. Or even another elite athlete weapon will work. 
 

maybe even another DB would be fine as long as he has speed. 
 

those 6ths will go along way in shoring the IOL depth. 

My guess is DB next.  Then we start adding linemen.

He takes Singletary’s place I believe after next year.  I don’t see Beane extended him.

As well as another rb in rd 3-4 next year I’m sure.  
 

i have zero expectations…..but how amazing would it be if last season kit a fire under moss and he puts in the work to take his game to the next level.  Motor did going into his 3rd year.  Maybe moss does the same.  If he does, he could be a solid thunder and lightning combo with Cook.

I think I mocked Cook to the Bills in more than 75% of the mocks I did this Draft season. Granted it was in the 3rd Round, I figured they may trade up to the mid 3rd to secure him, but the way the WR's flew in this Draft I understand taking him here...

 

I absolutely LOVE Cook for this team...I just love the fit. He's arguably the best pass catching RB in this Draft with a twist...He can beat Defenses deep...4.42 speed, he's played in big games...and it may not be a big deal, but the NFL is a family business for him.

 

This is a luxury pick...it's a specific chess piece...But I don't think there is a single NFL Defense that is happy about the Bills adding James Cook to this Offense...Not one...B-)

What this boils down to is we finally got a homerun hitter at RB. That 4.4 speed shows up in pads, not just in shorts. He also is a heck of a receiver out of the backfield. He will contribute this year. 

Now we just have to block it up for him!

Well his reaction on the video said otherwise. Regardless he’s a Bill and I wish this kid nothing but instant success with this offense 


Geezus you people over react and and force too much conspiracy theory stuff into everything.  
 

All evidence shows he’s excited to be here.  Stop pushing this false narrative

Who the hell knows what happened on the video. For all we know someone acted out of line in his house around the time he got picked and thats why they were telling everyone to get out. Lets not just make the assumption that he hated going to the Bills, especially as he is saying the opposite now.

 

I like that Beane traded down and got the couple extra 6th round picks. Means that the Bills can get back into the 4th round or they can get some guys that will fill out their 90 man roster, works either way. Lets go get an OL, TE, or Speed WR in round 3.

Ok. Hope you're right.  He don't fit in my opinion. Probably more of an IR guy than his brother. Hall or Walker fit. Run Josh run. All you again pal

great post for only your 26th post. seems like a good number to walk away at. wishing IR on our 2nd rd pick because your legendary scouting is better than beane? draft really brings out the worst of our fanbase

Two punters to try out for job.  Coach McD loves competition.

The NFL's next set of brothers

Cook is the younger brother of Minnesota Vikingsrunning back Dalvin Cook. He's about 10 pounds lighter and doesn't have the same physicality as his older brother. James Cook is a slashing runner and is adept at catching the ball out of the backfield. Buffalo hosts Minnesota in 2022.

I love this pick for the next 4 years.  
 

I thought we missed the boat by not trading up in rd 2 for Skyy moore, Pickens, McBride or Pierce.  We missed the boat on the top playmakers and RBs so trading back was the right move.  Getting 2 additional picks and drafting the best playmaker on the board.  Sure, it would’ve been nice to trade back further, but missing out on him would’ve really stunk.  
 

It might not be the value that some like, but we added someone that’s dangerous with the ball in his hands and catching out of the backfield.  Great teams can afford luxuries.  Let’s enjoy him.  He’s fun

Nope, still have a worker here I’m trying to prompt and usher out. But I do trust the Bills FO. As always, time will tell. 

Oh he didn’t look fully aware of what was happening- not shy, not disinterested, just toast. 
 

honestly he looked like he expected to be a day 3 pick 😂
