How should we address WR?

[Victory Formation]

How do you guys think Beane will handle the situation? Usually he likes to fill all of our holes in free agency so we can go BPA in the draft but at this point I think he may have to draft out of need.

Will he go up, down, stay put? What do you guys think? I think because of the Diggs trade, Beane better walk away from this draft with multiple WRs for Josh otherwise he may have egg on his face.

Would love Nabers but the price is way too high. I say stay put at #28 or trade up a few spots for Brian Thomas jr. If he falls to the low 20’s.

I believe OBD has a few plans but the most likely scenario would involve a WR at 28 or a trade down from 28 into top of 2nd thus picking up a 3rd Rd pick as well.  Do see OBD picking 2 WRs; one with their 1st pick  (at 28 or lower) and another later but before pick 150.

I just added this to the poll, thank you.

Other.  Trade back from 28 for a team that wants an OT or Penix/Nix.  Take whoever is left from Legette,  Mitchell, Franklin, or Worthy.  Double dip in the 3rd or 4th round.

I am honestly thinking Brian Thomas is the right pick at the right spot. There are enough weapons out there (Samuel, Shakir, Kincaid, Cook) that not everything needs to flow through him immediately but looks pro ready enough to win 1 on 1 if against most #2 CB

[Gregg]

My guess is they stay at #28 and draft a WR. 

[Gary Marangi]

Helloooo Mr Reciever my guess

[BillsFan130]

Move up to low 20s and get Thomas if he's still there.

If he's not, maybe trade up a couple spots to get your guy so teams like KC don't leap frog you 

[oldmanfan]

Try and trade up for one of the top 3.  If you can’t make the deal stand Pat, they’ll be some pretty good ones at 28.

They'll be nothing left wr-wise by the 3rd round after the 2nd run on wrs is over. And we can still double dip this year trading up a little for BTJ then trade up in the 2nd for maybe Legette?  It can be done....

[LeGOATski]

Moderate trade up for Thomas is where I'm at. Or Odunze if he falls a bit.

 Fine if they stay put and take Legette too

[Bleeding Bills Blue]

I would like a move up to get your guy, but I'm not wagering two drafts.  The extra 2nd in 2025 makes you a bit flexible with next years first round pick.  But I do think we still need 3 picks in the first 4 rounds, as well as more picks than normal.  I think I'd like to see 8 players picked total - WR, WR, CB, DT, DE, OG, S, RB maybe (I think RB can possibly be UDFA),

There's always people that slip through cracks because teams have depth and don't want to draft a WR6/7 in the 3rd round.  Shakir was drafted in the 5th - while pre draft i felt like he was right in that same window with guys like Robinson and Moore who went like 100 picks ahead of him.

With all due respect…have you seen Beane in the first round?  We are most likely trading up imo. We have the ammo to do it to get a stud to replace diggs

[HOUSE]

This is to much stress for me, you decide

I’m guessing your Magic 8 Ball is broken, too? 

[Buffalo_Stampede]

Draft 2 in the 1st 4 rounds. 

[SoonerBillsFan]

#2 or #3.  

[bearstobills]

i think it's  significant that the Bears are hosting Xavier Worthy on a 30 visit.  They are not taking him at 9.  And they don't pick again until 75.  You don't bring that guy in if you're not considering him.  They may have something in place with the Bills.  By the way, I am with Joe Marino.  Trading up significantly in the first for a non QB usually does not work.

Marino’s pretty good, I follow him loosely on YouTube. I tip my hat also to Cover1.
