Baja admittedly has great corners, but they basically erased Thomas in that game. He is an outstanding prospect, but I don’t think he would step into lead dog role right away, maybe not even this season. Would you think he’d be a step up over Gabe right away though, even before any potential polishing? And then the team can lean on the likes of Kincaid, Samuel, Shakir and Cook to fill the rest of the role we lost in Diggs. Watching Jayden Daniels freelance to Thomas, I could totally see him and Josh hooking up for some huge plays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not saying that they shouldn’t draft Thomas and let him develop and yes I think he would probably be a starter right away and a strong deep threat from the start. I would be very happy to get Thomas as long as it doesn’t cost too much in picks to get him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterpan Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 Jj McCarthy as anything more than a late round pick is the real head scratcher in this draft. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything more than a 4th (and flipping firsts) and I'm out the trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldTimer1960 Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 Other head scratchers if picked in the first (of course, just my $.02): - Troy Franklin (size and hands questions and shaky combine) - Darius Robinson (can play both DT and DE, but first round?) - Any safety (unless you count Cooper Dejean as a S) -Braden Fiske (arm length) - Xavier Worthy (size & hands) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 19 hours ago, GASabresIUFan said: NC States Payton Wilson. Best ILB on the board but with a second round grade. Yea I can see him being a "surprise" first rounder. A bit like when Green Bay took your guy Quay in the first a couple of years back. Wasn't a bad prospect by any meana but wasn't a first round talent and reaching, even if only a bit, on a prospect at a non-premium position in round 1 is always a head scratcher.

The fact he may go top 4 is insane. Harbaugh is probably laughing his ass off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akcash Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 I feel like a lot of qbs after Caleb and Maye have a lot of chances to bust. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norcalbillsfan Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 Worthy, I don't know if he goes in the 1st, but he's going to go way too high because there's always a team looking for the next tyreek. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyC81 Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 If Al Davis was still alive, the Raiders would take Worthy at pick 13. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Jokeman Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 The Raiders are always a team to surprise. Xavier Worthy seems an obvious connection since they love speed. They might also take a QB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanC883 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 On 4/6/2024 at 4:06 PM, BuffaloBillyG said: Maybe not as much of an overdraft, but I think at least 1 of the WRs people see as late 1st early 2nd may go ahead of Brian Thomas. On the flip side one of McCarthy, Penix or Nix will slide way further than most mock drafters want to believe. I could see this being Franklin or McConkey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who will it be this year? Which team, or teams, will reach for a player that makes everyone say “Huh?”. I love when this happens because it just means someone is falling closer to the Bills.

TheyCallMeAndy Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 (edited) I think whoever we draft 🤣🤣 There are about 6 WRs in play, but could be a dark horse WR projected to go early round 2 like Legette.
