Rc2catch Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 The only negative is does he have too much potential to hide on the practice squad? Wildgoose got plucked pretty quick last year and this guy seems to have much more upside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Udubalum07 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 In reading some of the scouting reports, I wonder if he is someone that they feel can be like Hyde or Power. Both played corner and college and turned into NFL safeties. They were also both later round picks. 3 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am guessing he is a Safety prospect for Bills. checks the boxes for Safety top end tackler good in Zone ball skills. smart.

CapeBreton Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Since he’s not a big name, maybe we can stash him on the practice squad without him getting sniped? unlike everyone else we draft that doesn’t make the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea who he is either but I love this pick… Was listening to Bill Polian this morning on the radio. He was kind of ripping all these mock drafters which is still a large step up from most posters here. He talked about how these people don't have half the information NFL teams have such as; medical, psychological, and think he called it security, i.e. how many times have you been arrested or maybe came close to it, friends you have out with, etc. So for them to praise or rip a pick is useless as they likely have little idea what went into the selection. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maine-iac Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Considering we play safeties over the top all day let him play tight and ball hawk and if a speedy one gets by there's hyde or poyer to clean up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Consider that he is taller and weighs more than both Hyde and Poyer. I can’t wait to hear Beane talk about this, but I have to think he is going to be a ball-hawking safety. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muppy Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 (edited) well a boatload of needs have been addressed in this draft. Im not sure how draft media types will grade our draft picks . Its nice when they grade you highly of course. But those grades never sway me that hard. Hope springs eternal on each and every pick right now. Roster or BUST say what you will, for me the Bill are STACKED. *happy with the haul* m Edited April 30, 2022 by muppy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also since one tenth of a second is approximately 2 inches difference in a 40 yard dash, perhaps they feel his height and long arms make up that difference?

After drafting Shakir in the 5th and the Punt God in the 6th, who cares how the rest of the draft goes?! 😆 I don’t know anything about him either, and I absolutely trust our guys with DB’s! I wonder if this 6’1” and 208 lb DB might be groomed to replace our starting/aging (and also late round pick) safeties? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
