Washington is one team where there's potential. Philadelphia is another. Could possibly move up in the 3rd round with TB. Beane has the Queen to move around the chess board What queen are you referring to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralonzo Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 2 minutes ago, Einstein's Dog said: For me, it's not the production, it's having good players. We need more good players - yes, Shakir and Kincaid are good. But right now we're replacing Diggs and Davis with Samuel and ?(Hollins??). What a downgrade. IMO to stay one of the top contenders we need another good WR - really 2, one can be a rookie though. If you have good players that aren't playing good, what's the point of having those good players? Like the quote from Moneyball, "If he's a good hitter, why doesn't he hit good?" Diggs and Davis were not carrying the mail for the Bills anymore after the bye... and the Bills started winning. It's a stretch to claim it's just because they were the greatest decoys ever because everyone knows they're good players and that they drew off all the coverage. In theory, if you take "talent" out of the equation and simply replace players who aren't playing good with players who are playing good, then you're a better team for it. 2 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosell also said he was told that Mitchell could be a top 10 NFL receiver and end up as good as the top 3 wr's in this draft if he puts things together. So basically, low floor and super high ceiling 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generic_Bills_Fan Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 16 minutes ago, Ralonzo said: Why is everyone worried about "replacing Diggs' and Davis' production"? The last half of the season Diggs and Davis weren't replacing Diggs' and Davis' production, Shakir and Kincaid were. Man I know Diggs is using this ‘I was doubled’ excuse but watching some of these games down the stretch idk if it was a physical decline or a mental decline or what but he wasn’t all there doubled or not 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldTimer1960 Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 10 minutes ago, Turbo44 said: Bills seem to love him. What receiver do you like best? I agree that they seem to really like him. I would avoid AD Mitchell - too many reports of character/effort issues for my taste. I don’t like Keon Coleman at any spot in round 2. I do like Ladd McConkey, but I acknowledge that he has some size/durability risk and probably isn’t a deep threat in spite of his 4.39 40. Polk and Baker are interesting, but not until late round 2 or later. Of course, these are just my fan opinions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back2Buff Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 I'm warming up to McConkey, probably because I think his tape is just so much better than Franklin, Mitchell and Coleman. Doesn't help the deep ball, but maybe they can find someone later on that can push the safeties back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo has very minimal if any contact with him so far. I think it's Coleman at 33🤮 or Dejean which I'd be okay with...same with Kool-Aid and take best WR at 60 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polk and Baker are interesting, but not until late round 2 or later. Of course, these are just my fan opinions. Ladd has always been my favorite, and he could play Z, but his weakness is getting off blocks at the LOS so prob never can play X. Therefore we'd have to draft an X and not sure whom that would be? Unless we can trade for one. I like Coleman at 60 because he does have quickness, despite his 4.61 40. Polk is a football player, afraid of nothing, but, unfortunately doesn't have a 5th gear. I nsaying that, if you tell me we can draft Ladd at 33 and either Coleman or Pol at 60 (or with a slight trade up), I'm 100% all for that 1 minute ago, Monty98 said: I would love Polk, but honestly I don't think we love him.

I agree Diggs and Davis fell off and Shakir rose, and Kincaid looks like he will be excellent. But to me, we still want two good WRs. It's an important position. Having Diggs not be good was extremely costly - seems like they had already factored and game planned for Davis' dropoff. I want a good rookie WR - hoping for McConkey/Franklin/coleman/AD group. But I also want a good vet WR. I'm hoping the moves Beane made can bring home both - that the man I know as a wizard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
