RyanC883 Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 With mock draft season in full swing, what are the worst mock drafts you have seen for the Bills. I'll start: https://www.nfl.com/news/four-round-2023-nfl-mock-draft-1-0-qbs-go-1-2-3-after-colts-trade-up Chad Reuter just posted his 4 round mock on NFL.com. It has the Bills TRADING UP to 20 and losing its 3rd round pick for........Pitt DT Calijah Kancey. Still available at #20: Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who goes next to the Chargers, Hyatt, who goes following that to KC, Trenton Simpson (MLB) to NJG, Dalton Kincaid to Dallas, and OT Darnell Wright to Cincy. If we traded up for any of these guys I could live with that, but for a DT....NO! But the carnage is not yet over, in the 2nd round Reuter picks: Drew Sanders, LB Arkansas. Look, I like this pick, but not if round 1 is DT. Picked 2 picks later is Jack Campbell, and about 5 picks later centers Luke Wypler and then Steve Avila in the early 3rd. Our 3rd round pick becomes Seattle's, and they take AL LB Henry To'oTo'o. In the 4th we take Tenn-Chattanooga- OG McClendon Curtis. (who?!?!) Taken several picks later are both Oklahoma RB Eric Gray (to Cincy) and Wake Forrest WR A.T. Perry, to NE. YIKES!! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely in the minority but I feel as though this draft is not as bad as the consensus for receiving options and will go on to produce a few decent receivers looking back 5/6 years from now. Rice being one of them. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McDonald was one of the few edge rushers at the Senior Bowl who was beating anyone. Wicked spin move. Stats aren't there, but he was being played as a 5 tech last year most of the time. But yeah, he's light in the load. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEpsYtown Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 24 minutes ago, RyanC883 said: OG McClendon Curtis. I actually find him really interesting. A lot of eyes on him because of Cole Strange last year. He's a left tackle who will move inside to guard. I'd be lying if I told you I watched a bunch of his games but he is an interesting prospect. I do think the Bills will continue to use their picks on defensive players, though passing on those WR in the first really does not make sense. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floridagatorsbuffalobills Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 If the picks isn't WR, OT, LB, or a massive DT in the 1st, it's a failure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floridagatorsbuffalobills Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 I think it's so hard to do mock's right now with the possibility of us trading for Hopkins. You trade for Hopkins, our entire draft outlook changes honestly. You go out and trade Hopkins I'm going into the draft and taking either OT or LB in the 1st. Assuming we trade a 3rd or something for Hopkins then i'm using a 2nd on whatever I didn't draft in the first and then from there on out adding depth guys.

Gaine was at his pro day today. Could Buffalo take Zay Flowers and then look to move Gabe on Day 2 for someone who maybe didn’t get what they were hoping for in the draft? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reuter had Zay going in the 2nd round, which I don't think happens. I'd love him at 27 if the top OTs and some other WRs are gone, and if we don't take him, Cincy, KC, Philly, or NE will. Although I wouldn't trade Davis. Rookie contract and a decent #3. Unless he was part of a trade to Arizona for Hopkins.

I could still see WR at 27 depending how it falls, and depending on how the FO views Davis long term. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobD Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 I read that mock draft recently and wow, thought exactly the same. You have to wonder how much research some of these media types do. Jack Campbell is the plug and play guy for the Bills and he will be an All-Pro in 2 years. I liken him to a modern day Jack Lambert who played the position for the Steelers years ago.

We have some other needs besides LB, WR, etc. We could draft a Tackle or a DT, DE type player in round 1 and to me it wouldn't be a big deal because we do need help at those positions as well.

OldTimer1960 Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 Former Miami GM Mike Tannenbaum thinks the Bills should take RB Jahmyr Gibbs at pick 27. This would be a pick that I really would not understand. He might be a little better than James Cook, but they are similar in being undersized and that neither should be used regularly between the tackles. I just can’t even imagine this pick for the Bills, it would be redundant with Cook. Now, if you trade Cook it might be plausible, but in a year with a strong RB class, Cook’s value would be depressing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
