Jeremiah has us taking a DT at 28 in his latest mock

Good Lord, this would be an AWFUL idea

 

It's not the preferred choice by me or most fans. But it's not an "AWFUL" idea. 

 

Right now we have Ed Oliver and Daquan Jones at DT and that's literally it. And we use a heavy rotation there.

 

DT will probably be one of our first 2 picks. And there's an argument to be made with how deep WR is and how thin top prospect D-Line talent is that it makes more sense to take the DT first and trade up in Round 2 for a WR.

 

I'd rather we didn't do that. But to say there isn't merit in the idea or that it's "AWFUL" isn't true.

repeated failure over and over again

 

 

You’re wrong. They’ve drafted 2 DTs since McDermott has been here and both are starters in the league.

DL in general. There's been a ton of capital both draft and FA at it, and it hasn't gone well.

We drafted one at an offensive skill position pick-level

 

 

 

What?

So they should never draft a DT? What in the world kind of logic is this?

Darius Robinson feels like a possible pick if we don't go WR. As has the height we like at DE but can also move inside on passing downs. Yet again until.roster filled out tough call what we draft first and of course who's available.

Why ? Jones isn't getting any younger and may not be here next year if he doesn't play well or may be relegated to a rotational player, Ed is real good but not a great player, they may get some FA's but if a really good DL falls to them at their pick that could be a DL foundational player why not then they are set for 5 years .

 

The WR looks much different & there may be a really good WR in the second & knowing Beane he could use some draft capital to get back up into the top of the second & get the guy he wants so it's not as bad of a idea as you make it out to be IMHO ...

Sure, why not?

 

Not like we haven't bargain-basemented the WR position up till now.

 

Can't ever have enough DL.

I like how people in here act like the Bills already did this..

 

Also, Daniel Jeremiah definitely 'has the pulse' of the Bills..

 

2023: Quentin Johnston (WR)

2022: Breece Hall (RB)

2021: Asante Samuel Jr. (CB)

2020: --

2019: T.J. Hockensen (TE)

2018: Josh Rosen (QB)

 

So based on his results.. the Bills are absolutely taking a WR then.. Mock drafts are not meant to be 'accurate' or based on 'inside information'. They're meant to generate traffic by getting people to run to reddit, facebook, message boards, etc screaming about this stuff.

There will be plenty of wideouts available in the later rounds! It's a deep draft!

We drafted an  interior DL at NINE.

 

That's absurd.

 


Was it absurd for the Rams to take Aaron Donald at 13 overall? Or the Bucs to take Vita Vea 12th?

Sure, you might find the 8th, 9th or 10th best wr, get a guy with average speed or hands. But is that REALLY addressing the position?

Sun shines on a dog's ass now and again. Unfortunately, our guy isn't either of those guys, is he?

Newton plays Oliver’s position … not Jones 

 

He is also pretty small 

 

Oliver played well last year .. up to the last game anyway …

 

Just don’t think Newton is a great fit on the first
