He has reportedly shed a considerable amount of weight and I’ve heard that is pro day performance was quite good, though I don’t know the numbers. He is stiff on the A&M tape. Watch his Purdue tape. Dude is fluid. I put last year down to A&M usage. He is better than that. 2 Quote

I’d say he’s like George Karlaftis who has had a nice career but will admit I’ve been dropping him a bit in my rankings. He fits the Bills first choice criteria of visiting and he is 20 years old. I’d prefer him after a trade down I've moved him up in mine. He is a guy I'd be willing to bang the table for late first. Quote

Out of curiousity, would you have any interest in doing a rotating mock with me like Mel and Field Yates do. I don’t know how we’d get it done but just a thought that had come into my head 1 Quote

I do like Scourton and the corners you identified. I just don’t see a path to a CB in round 2 if they don’t take one at 30 (or with small trade down). I know it’s TV and they need to say something, but I heard Mark Ross say that he thinks JT Tuimoloau could sneak into the end of round 1. I kind of like JTT, but late first/early second seems too high to me. 1 Quote

SoonerBillsFan Posted April 18 Posted April 18 So who else watches draft day before the draft? Week of, night before whatever. Come on...admit it. Quote

stlbills13 Posted April 18 Posted April 18 I still want a CB in the 1st but our hand is not forced anymore IMO. Best Player Available (within reason) in the 1st and then see how the 2nd round is falling. Quote
jahnyc Posted April 18 Posted April 18 I wonder if the Tre signing means the Bills want to target one of the corners with a high ceiling (i.e., Porter) or needing to recover from an injury (Revel), understanding that these corners may need time to adjust (either because of system/experience or health) before being ready to start. The Bills can go with White/Jackson opposite Benford as a bridge until the CB draft pick is ready to be the guy. 6 3 Quote

I’d be surprised if you could get a 4th for a guy who is good, but is looking for $15M as a non-full time RB in a year where the RB class in the draft is very good.

MrEpsYtown Posted April 18 Posted April 18 Too many really good RBs in this draft for anyone to trade for Cook knowing they have to pay him. It feels u likely unless someone is desperate and had a ton of cap to use. 2 1 Quote

This draft is loaded with RBs. make him play this year and let him walk and get a compensatory pick next year. Probably better than trading him anyway. Cook doesn’t have many options Kind if like what happened to U of Tennessee QB Nico. They overplayed their hand. Edited April 18 by wppete 1 1 Quote

You'd be better off trying to get a late second or early third round pick for him. Jones is the type who would do the deal. Cook and 30 for 12 who would the Bills take at #12? Nolen? 2 1 1 1 Quote
