If we want Thomas, It's looking like we'll need to get to at least 14. That will cost us this year's 1st and 2nd, and next year's 2nd. While maybe even having to toss in a 5th or 6th this year to sweeten the pot.

Unless we trade a player?

[JaCrispy]

Trade the 1st and 3rd picks to move up ahead of the Cowboys (to #23) and take Xavier Worthy…spoil their draft 2 years in a row! 🤣🤣🤣

First shot at this.....  and DT's didn't fall right.  Would have to spend on DT in the FA with a scenario like this.

This mock draft from Bleacher Report two days ago is reasonable for a trade-less assessment of prospect values and team needs. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10111542-2024-nfl-mock-draft-br-nfl-scouting-depts-post-combine-predictions

 

Bills picks:

 

28 - Keon Coleman, WR FSU (Thomas doesn't come off board until 26 with Tampa -- so that's an interesting untapped opportunity) - pretty compelling arguments made in favor of his ability despite bad 40 time (including elite combine gauntlet top speed and technique). No doubt his elite hands and body control and underrated athleticism/untapped traits make him a fascinating projection debate. 

 

Noteworthy WRs to follow:

 

32 - Xavier Worthy to Kansas City (FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!)

33 - Adonai Mitchell to Carolina (potential alternative to Coleman at 28? Or enticement to trade back from 28?)

34 - Roman Wilson to New England (dynamic potential but not an ideal X prospect for Bills)

45 - Ja'Lynn Polk to New Orleans (Solid prospect)

48 - Ladd McConkey to Jacksonville (the Garrett Wilson comps are shockingly accurate)

54 - Jalen McMillan to Cleveland (lot of these solid WRs with solid size and solid athleticism and solid tape)

 

60 - Calen Bullock, S USC

 

Noteworthy WRs to follow:

 

61 - Xavier Legette to Detroit (really interesting prospect with one year of high end production after quiet 5-year conversion to WR from QB)

63 - Malachi Corley to San Fran (cool fit for their RAC offense)

 

99 - Tupuola-Fetui, EDGE Washington (no DTs yet but no doubt pass rush needs high end investment for everyone always)

Thanks, I hate it LOL

 

No offense, but 5 out of your first 6 picks are most likely backups, at best, in 2024. Mustapha COULD be a starter at S. MAYBE one of Van Pran or Keegan beats out Edwards at LG? While depth is bolstered across positions of need, I don't see impact players added here. And ZERO DTs??? Maybe Trice develops on the EDGE? The 2nd rd WR certainly doesn't project favorably as a future impact player. Wilson falls into that Quentin Johnson jump-ball/contested catch mold that does not historically translate well to the NFL. It's the same mold that creates a fascinating debate around Keon Coleman, who is a much more intriguing prospect overall.

But for real…. Beane’s comment about moving up for Allen and if it works nobody cares…. IMO he’s in an aggressive mindset and could move way up the board in Round 1

So...what are you all doing in this scenario? I'm guessing it's down to Johnny Newton or Xavier Worthy, with most Bills fans picking Worthy? 

 

 

How it went (pleased with it overall):

 

Edited March 9 by Richard Noggin

[Richard Noggin]

This monster falls to 28 somehow. Check out those measurables. "Extremely dense" is right, damn. 6'3" 354lbs and runs a 4.4? Historic athleticism. Even so, tough choice with both Texas WRs available at 28. Although I imagine most Bills fans would snag Worthy, and a few less would pick Mitchell, without giving it much thought. 

 

 

This is how it went. Maybe my favorite total draft haul with no trades, even after losing the projected 3rd round comp pick. Serious prospects (most of them verified Bills targets) who almost all have a shot at making the roster. (Don't LOVE the Kinchens value in rd 2, but with his U Miami coach coming aboard, it feels very possible.)

That's pretty insane... and tempting.

 

But I'm on record for wanting to go all-in on offense, as it's the only way I can see us realistically getting past the Chiefs in the playoffs. No matter how highly ranked our defense is, it'll never be good enough to shutdown Mahomes/Kelce/Reid in the postseason.

 

Our QB is great, so let's outgun them. BUT, a guy with this size having this kind of athleticism sounds amazing if he can reach his full potential.

[jahnyc]

The listed weight for Chop Robinson is wrong.  It is 254 and not 354.  Still has strong measurables.

Better, and polychromatic. I'm an UGA fan, so approve of day 2. How did you get the pick for Van Pran? Be shocked if Thomas falls to 28.

 

 

 

Dropped back two spots to regain something close to the lost comp pick value. Not so bad.

I'm not sold on Chop. I don't like it.

Traded to 9 but Odunze & Nabers went at 7&8, Daniels still on board Minny sent a trade that allowed a recoup of the 2024 2nd and 2025 2nd that were traded away…

Maybe we are having Aaron Maybin flashbacks.

 

As I said before, I would much rather have a 1st round WR than an Edge rusher, but in that particular mock, all the top receivers including Worthy and Mitchell were off the board....I hope that isn’t the case in the real draft!!

[ScorpionZero]

With the Bills releasees and McGovern likely moving over to center so that they have a veteran at the pivot. Look for them to add a guard early at 60 or possibly moving into third if someone they like falls.
