Whkfc Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 As far as having a new guy to talk about. But we are well positioned for tomorrow. Who are 2-3 receivers you still like? And who do you think they take? I like Polk and McConkey however I think they are gonna take Franklin. The Bills have more documented visits with him that amy other prospect and they have a track record of selecting guy they have multiple meetings with 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low Positive Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 I agree about Franklin. The thing that I heard about Leggett is that he's pretty dumb so I don't hate not taking him. And Worthy gives me John Ross vibes. I think they wanted Odunze or Thomas but when that didn't happen they were happy to move down and collect capital while still getting their guy. No one will accuse them of reaching for Franklin and/or McConkey tomorrow. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDingus Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 What are you talking about? We got to move around some 5ths & 7ths, and even got a 3rd rounder that we could parlay into a couple 6ths if we wanted! Yall are smoking crack! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Brown Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Going into round one the Bills trading back and getting a 3rd round pick was my second preferred outcome behind trading up for Brian Thomas Jr.. Getting the #33 pick with McConkey and Mitchell still on the board is fantastic imo.. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then maybe they take a WR with their original 2nd. I just can’t get over trading with KC so they can add an offensive weapon. There had been talk of KC trying to move ahead of the Bills to get a WR ahead of them, but instead the Bills helped them. You just don’t do that when the other team is one you haven’t been able to beat in the playoffs. I’ve disagreed in the past with those wanting McD fired. Now, if KC wins a 3rd straight Super Bowl, beating the Bills to get there again, I’d get rid of the whole lot of them. 1 1 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iccrewman112 Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 (edited) 11 minutes ago, US Egg said: So is McBeane believing there is a #1 WR still on the board? in the second round are you looking for single trait players that could possibly develop into a number 1? example: is worthy currently just an undersized speedster that you hope can develop into more? is McConkey a high floor slot receiver that you hope can begin to play on the outside effectively. this is unlike the top 3 WRs that went early who have multiple traits (thus why they are top 10 picks). So what trait does Beane value and does hedraft for that trait or for something. The team is currently lacking? Speed, hands, route running, contested catches. And hope other traits develop with pro level coaching? Edited April 26 by iccrewman112 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, his size is considered a detriment vs press coverage. I read one comment that said he was definitely not close to Tyreek Hill, who is 20# heavier. The NFL comparison for Worthy is Tank Dell, which still isn’t bad. The NFL Comp for McConkey is EJ Moore, which doesn’t excite me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chiefs have struggled for years picking receivers. It's safe to say they kind of suck at it.

Hill is also a top 2 or 3 WR in the entire NFL, who has way more to his game than just speed. Expecting Worthy to come in and be what Hill is is a little ridiculous. Worthy has just as much of a chance of being John Ross. Worthy might be a good player. I don't know.

Then that trade up was a big miss by KC. As MJS has noted, KC hasn't done well developing WRs, and Worthy is going to need considerable development to be successful. I like AD Mitchell because he seems to be the kind of WR that the Bills want as a WR1 -- speedy but with good size. I would not be upset at Dejean at #33 either. The Bills also have #60 plus KC's late 3rd rounder. 3 hours ago, Figster said: You can't teach the kind of speed Worthy has, but you can turn him into a better route runner and thats exactly what Andy Reid will do with Worthy IMO, unfortunately... Said every GM defending a reach for a guy with speed but not other traits important for his position ... like Aaron Maybin. Worthy is a big gamble, much more appropriate to a 2nd or 3rd rounder than even a late first rounder, and KC hasn't shown the ability to develop WRs.
