mathja Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Tez Walker and Devontez Walker are the same person, but apparently one has spoken with the bills more than the other. until this gets fixed, for me it’s invalid. 2 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they have a scout there who is someone's son and they always just take his word for it? 1 minute ago, mathja said: Tez Walker and Devontez Walker are the same person, but apparently one has spoken with the bills more than the other. until this gets fixed, for me it’s invalid. He is Tez on the field but Devontez on Sundays when he's crocheting with his grandma after church 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pitt defense and Bills defense have a lot of similarities in the secondary scheme, so it’s an easier projection. 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea where hes projected to go... but all things considered dane was a good soldier here and a ton of value for a 7th round pick. Started 28 games, another 5 in the playoffs. 1 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of the bad singers on American Idol that say their throat hurts. Also seems to go down really easily. I don't think he's worth 28. He'd be good value at 60 but unlikely to be there. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone putting more stock in the combine versus what they watched on tape in actual games should not be drafting players. 3 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 What does 'PRI' indicate on those charts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Among other things, it gives a larger, more easily readable chart! Do you know what the key means as to "visit type" (PRI, COM, PRO, WOR, OTHER) I'm guessing that PRI means private workout, COM means combine, PRO means ? pro day at their school? WOR no idea if PRI means private workout, OTHER also no idea. 36 minutes ago, Roundybout said: blah Say more? https://www.nfl.com/prospects/troy-franklin/32004652-4154-5210-6c05-a56029ed000f " a productive vertical target for a team looking for instant help in the passing game." struck me I will say this. The most interesting thing I got from that chart was to look at previous years, and then look at who the Bills actually drafted in those years.

Speaking as someone who does stuff like that, you're talking about he used a nickname to code one visit differently. It's an error, but sensibly speaking it doesn't invalidate the whole data set. Just add the two together in your minds. 10 minutes ago, BarleyNY said: That’s one hell of a find. Visits and other meetings for every team over years.

Again, one of the most interesting things I found was to look at what players they were documented to show the most interest in previous years, vs. who they drafted.

Lost Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 (edited) https://www.kentweyrauch.com/nfldraftvisits Just checked that chart from 2023 and there are no visits with Dalton Kincaid and only 1 private meeting with Kaiir Elam in 2022. So maybe it's not all that telling after all. Edited April 11 by Lost 2 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering he did a private workout for the Bills I wouldn't be too worried about his combine numbers if the Bills drafted him. I wouldn't be happy with him at 28 either though. I've said this a few times, but I like the idea of taking best receiver available at 28 (AD Mitchell or BJT if we're lucky, etc...) and then moving up a little in the second and getting McConkey / Franklin / Polk.
