BuffaloBillyG Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 5 minutes ago, Warriorspikes51 said: very interesting and unexpected IMO RB room isn't set yet. We have Cook, and Johnson is more a RB3/ST guy IMO. Then we have Evans who should be competing with Johnson. Other than that we need a compliment to Cook in the Murray/Harris role IMO. Big with big play explosive ability. But I've seen him mocked late 2nd to early 3rd and hoping a RB isn't coming that early with perspective needs at WR, EDGE and Safety. Still if he slipped to round 4 he would be a really nice pairing with Cook IMO. 2 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look back over the years and it's pretty normal for them to bring in middle round guys as well for visits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jokeman Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 40 minutes ago, SCBills said: This guy absolutely jumps off the screen anytime you watch FSU. He's likely the first RB off the board, that said I don't want the Bills to take him as happy with Cook as a #1 and adding a mid to late RB2 with size. Isaiah Davis is one of my late favorites. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2o Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 We met with Audric Estime at the Combine as well. I think we are looking for a guy who fits that power back type of mold. Benson does run with power. We'd have to spend a 2nd on him though and I can't see it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJB Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 This is an extremely weak RB class and these guys will go higher than they should due to lack of depth / talent To me we should wait until next year once we have Cook figured out so we know what he is. Plus next years RB class is absolutely STACKED. Not the year to go RB 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have concerns about Cook's hands and ball security. Plus, with the way we rotate out backs, he could easily be an early contributor. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonzo1105 Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Benson looks like an animal and if you let him get going he will punish you. He has to get up to speed though and that is his main problem is his vision is average at best. He also runs extremely high for being built like a brick house. Wish he would lower his pads more but he does have breakaway ability and is a pretty good pass catcher out of the backfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logic Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 The thing Bills fans haven't been discussing much and probably aren't ready for is this: Joe Brady showed last season that he'd prefer the Bills to feature the run more than they did under Dorsey and Daboll. Their neutral down run rate was much higher under Brady than Dorsey. With this being the case, and with the fact that they're likely gonna need to lean on the run game even more in the absence of Diggs and Davis, and considering that Cook and Johnson are currently the only viable backs on the roster... There is every possibility that the Bills will use a decent draft pick on a running back this year. I'm not saying it's what I would do. I'd be happy to sign a veteran to a one year deal, spend a 7th round pick on one, or sign an undrafted free agent. But in all likelihood, with Brady's proclivity for featuring the run game and with Cook being a smaller back, we may be looking at yet another day two running back addition via the draft. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I like Braelon Allen, but I don't think there's much chance he is available when we might think about taking a RB. And I like Kendall Milton late, though he also has an upright running style.

Gonzonzo Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 What about the one who crush the combine, Gerrendo? Anybody think he is good player and a fit to the Bills? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 I doubt Benson is in the mix for the Bills considering he just had a great combine and will probably be gone by our 2nd round pick (#60) I think Audric Estime and Ray Davis are more realistic options as mid-round power backs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like Cook except for his brick house stature Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
