Richard Noggin Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 (edited) It's a Belichickian reach, in that there was trusted insider intel on the prospect (his college coach and McD are tight), and the team is therefore confident in the fit. (The traits are there, too.) Again, while it doesn't maximize draft value, nabbing Logan Mankins at the end of rd 1 to the ridicule of everyone on the outside, worked out pretty well for BB back when. (And of course Brady is a HUGE part of that. Luckily, we've got a guy, too.) Edited April 30, 2022 by Richard Noggin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocCityRoller Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Welcome to Buffalo Terrell Bernard - I hope you have a recipe for Crow. Can see him in a Milano/ Neal role. Also if he can replace Matakevitch on ST that clears up 2.5 Million He does play fast and has a sh!t ton of instinct. Put his football processor in Edmunds and you have a beast 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocket94 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Another example of good and potentially ascending players falling under national radar hype. This is what good scouts and film study do! I love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoName Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Everybody comparing this guy too Milano....wrong guy....We just cut AJ Klein. This guy looks a faster more splash play version of AJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milanos Milano Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Great pick! Can’t wait. We needed that decisiveness on our team like yesterday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turk71 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Just now, transient said: This, IMO, is the type of hybrid player in McD’s defense that prevents 13s from happening. You don't need a 13sec specialist The proper defensive playcalling prevents that garbage Welcome Bernard I hope you are really good 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCBills Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Not addressing WR depth and our IOL being two “we hope they’re good” guys and then Ford/Quessenberry/Mancz being the healthy depth has probably skewed my initial reaction of a guy I’ve never heard of. His tape is pretty filthy. Beane wanted to get faster on defense and this linebacker is decisive, explosive and fast. What we do with him.. no idea. But his tape is intriguing. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I do wonder if they think they can convert him to Safety? Did Beane say he could play Safety? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brand J Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 He never made a visit or talked with the Bills as far as we know, right? It’s interesting they’d choose him over some players who did meet with the team. I’ll reserve judgment on if they could’ve got him at the end of round 5, but I would’ve rolled the dice with a couple of the other prospects first. Hopefully this is a Terrence McGee level steal, haven’t had one of those in quite some time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScorpionZero Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 I guess that's why I sit in a chair all day, and they get paid millions of dollars. I could do it for a year or 2, get fired and retire. I don't need much, live like a king. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll say he's a good pick, until proven otherwise. Honestly. Gotta stop freaking out about a backup. 5 years ago up to the 4th round, and sometimes the 5th round, we needed to hit on every player. Not anymore. It’s more of a case of was he the best choice? Doesn’t feel like it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
