Beane needs to have more self control...he’s constantly getting us bad value with his trade ups/downs...

Certainly appears to be the case thus far. He has several 6th round picks that seemingly have little value. Was trading back to get them a solid strategy in hindsight?

Okay all my tight ends are now gone. The Bills had James Mitchell from V Tech in for a visit or a meeting I think.... I haven't watched him but he might still be an option. 


Mitchell was in for top 30, he is pretty talented

But, most people projected the strength of the draft to be late first through fourth round, with a lot of similarly graded players graded throughout. Beane minimized the Bills impact by trading the 4th for a questionable move up, trading down the 2nd for picks outside the sweet spot, and reaching on picks.

 

And there goes Calvin Austin to the Steelers, a team that just does it right on draft day.

 

No, a first rd CB is not a similarly rated player to the guys going in the 4th. Similarly rated means there are actually 32 players with a grade for the round they are in. The reality is that there usually aren't. I could argue we took a 3rd rd player in the 2nd and a 4th rd player in the 3rd because we are picking at the end of the round anyway. Making a blanket statement that the draft is strong for 4 rounds and characterizing them as having similar value as far as depth pieces goes is disingenuous.

If one of those 6th round picks becomes a starting OG, or a star WR, then yes.

 

Why are you so quick to have a take before the story is written.

Clearly he was best WR on board and

no way these 6th round picks are gonna make the team.

 

I'm going to guess and say the Bills think Stevenson can be that type of guy and already has a year in the system. I wanted Austin also though, from the get go but that's just my guess.

Yup Fuentes didn’t utilize him then they get rid of him he has a good start and then blows out his knee. I like him but I wonder if the Bills brought him in to double check his Medicals

We were never drafting him.  We basically have him in Marquez Stevenson.  I still would like a WR, though.

NFL 1st world problem .. our team is so good and punts less than most teams in the league, but I have nothing else to be concerned about so I will fret over whether the punter i want will be there when we draft in the 5th round. I wonder if this is how Pats fans felt all those years asi was desperately hoping we could find a serviceable quarterback
