patzen Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 Seems like a big nickel type. They must see something they really like in him. I'll wait to hear what Beane has to say before I judge the pick too harshly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has zero effect on what the Bills end up doing with Edmunds. Bernard is closer to being a safety than he is to being a MLB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have to agree with him but he does have the credentials. doesnt hold a candle to the cover 1 guys imo. im not too worried about his opinion 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaenon Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 Do they like him as an eventual safety as well? Kind of makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheektowaga Chad Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 3 minutes ago, IronMaidenBills said: We need someone that can cover Kelce. Can he do it? apparently didn't give up a coverage td in college Thats got to be a good sign The bills have usually thrown multiple different defenders at kelce each game so I'm sure he will have his chance eventually Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyanC883 Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 just an awful pick. could have traded down and got him. Tiny, oft injured, most project him as a pure ST player/backup. With other OL and WR on board this is off. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottLaw Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 15 minutes ago, buffblue said: Won't lie, this is a very disappointing draft so far. It seems the attitude is "We have Josh Allen, so who needs playmakers on offense. And while we're at it, let's draft a 5th rounder in the 3rd." Are we becoming the Packers of the AFC? Too soon… too soon. 😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Jabber Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 Sounds like he’s a good tackler and has good cover skills. Seems similar to Siran Neal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Blitz Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 13 minutes ago, LeGOATski said: Is he the 3rd LB if Bills play more 3 LB sets? Seems like he could put on some extra muscle... probably can cover TEs pretty well. More teams going to 2 TEs this might be a very savvy pick - Big Nickel guy that has elite coverage skills and play in the box. Faster on defense right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo_Stampede Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 I think this pick replaces Matakevich. We’ll see how he develops. Athlete with leadership skills. Instant special teams guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CincyBillsFan Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 9 minutes ago, Brianmoorman4jesus said: I think people might be not realizing how the modern game is changing. 250lb LBs are about to be dinosaurs. If you can get 10lbs on this kid and keep him clean with the Dline, he can probably be the Edmunds replacement. Especially if he plays as fast and as decisive as these scouting reports say….that’s the modern day/future NFL MLB mold right there. An almost Safety size player in the middle just flying around and making plays in the pass game. Sounds like this kid is the anti Edmunds and that’s probably what most of us have been accidentally asking for. A instinctive guy that plays fast and doesn’t just think and move like a robot out there. This is a great point. The game is changing and defensive SPEED is key to slowing down today's offenses. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
