Bill from NYC Posted April 26 Posted April 26 You really couldn't make this up. I do however think that nobody who follows the Bills should have expected any other draft philosophy from McDermott. 🙄😔 1 1 1 Quote

It'll be on the defensive side. Which is fine. We've needed it. Hope he can get a home run on one of these dudes this year. Quote

blacklabel Posted April 26 Posted April 26 Hey, just like 2022 when they went Elam in the first and Benford in the sixth. This time tho, I want both corners to be successful. I feel better on Hairston than I did in Elam for sure tho. Seattle nabbed Horton three picks earlier, I kinda liked him in the 5th here but what can ya do. 1 Quote
colin Posted April 26 Posted April 26 Another limit athlete. They want young cheap athletic freaks and that's what they are stacking on d. They don't want a washed Douglas and Elam getting torched in the playoffs again, and I'm here for it. 1 1 Quote

Coach Tuesday Posted April 26 Posted April 26 McGinn’s 10th-rated CB: Often overshadowed in a secondary that included free safety Caleb Downs, strong safety Lathan Ransom and cornerback Denzel Burke. “When it came down to it he was kind of the glue, he and the safety from Alabama (Downs),” one scout said. “He might ultimately end up playing better than their other two corners (Burke, Ole Miss transfer Davison Igbinosun). I think his talent level will take him a long way because he’s smart and he’s a leader. He played nickel for them but probably should have been starting outside to keep him on the field more. He’s a jack of all trades and he could be the master of all of them. He has no problem covering guys outside or taking on linemen and making tackles.” Clocked a solid 40 at pro day to go with a vertical jump of 41 ½, best among the corners. “He was their best corner,” a second scout said. “He’s more ball denial than interception but he has the ability to play the ball. He can play nickel, safety, any position in the secondary. Athletic, good tackler, great feet, can run, strong, smart, great hips. Like him in press and off coverage. Little bit inconsistent to shed blocks. If he’s in the box as a nickel he can get pushed around a little bit. He’s dynamite.” Missed the first six games of 2022 with a hamstring injury. Started 23 of 41 games over four years, finishing with 98 tackles, three picks and 14 passes defensed. “I just like the way he handles his body and the way he moves around,” said a third scout. “He was a position leader. I’d say he’s probably third day, fourth or fifth round.” Rated as the No. 4 corner in the U.S. coming out of Suwanee, Ga., in 2021. 5 4 Quote

Well one, is there anyone on this board who is going to go "Oh no, not Dane Jackson!" If he gets cut? Two, if he's here for safety that makes a lot more sense 1 Quote
WotAGuy Posted April 26 Posted April 26 16 minutes ago, Special K said: I like him, but I guess he will be competing with Tre/Dane......otherwise he will be poached off the practice squad by some team, or could he be Safety depth?? 32 teams have had 6 chances to poach him without giving him a guaranteed roster spot and suddenly he’s too good to stay on our practice squad? 😝 1 Quote
