You’d think the draft is one round

File that next to the people that think that the hockey team's roster is set at the trade deadline of the previous season.

I think the point may have been that they have traded down but still had problems finding talent at many spots because they haven't drafted well. For example, wide receiver.

I mean every position is bad.

With having all these extra picks, you'd think they be better.

IF they do hit on a pick they don't pay them and just trade them away and think they can just replace them.

Its a bad strategy, IMO.

Hence why they have been the biggest spending team in UFA the most recent years.

We've determined that running the ball and stopping the run wins football games in the (cfl) .


Josh runs the ball.....

Wish they had him on defense with 13 seconds left....

25 isn't a great trade spot. It's a great spot for taking the next Jonathan Taylor: BREECE HALL
- RichardRoma



Drafting a RB is an historical waste of a pick in the first round.

If the Bills trade down and get an early 2nd round pick and then draft breece Hall. Then that is a whole different ball game

Then use the extra draft capital for a CB and WR. That is fine

the difference between pick 25 and 33 is nothing

if they think the rb is their guy and there at pick 25, it's not a reach

Thats my LOL.

The Bills trade down to 33 and draft Hall there everyone loves it cause they got an extra 3rd rd pick.

But Hall at 25, end of the world.

Other than 5th year option, i do not see how using your first selection on a running back in the 2nd round is any different than using your first selection on a running back in the 1st round. Schopp made a great point about CEH and the Chiefs. Everyone thought that pick was going to be the pick that started the Chiefs Dynasty. Dude isn't really doing anything to make the Chiefs better overall is he?

It going to be so great when ZDP and I are the only ones celebrating when the Bills use their first selection on a CB. Seems intuitively obvious to me. I will really be celebrating if the WGR caller who said to trade up for Sauce nails it. Or if my dude Kaiir Elam is picked. I think LB depth is almost as bad as CB depth so good if Devin Lloyd is the pick. Hamilton would be cool, but anyone that pays attention would know that any safety in a Mickey D defense will do.

Exactly. Get the early 2nd extra 3rd round and load up on CBs and WRs in the 2nd and 3rd rounds

Hall is not worth it. The value is getting more picks from a team that wants a QB

Eyeballs and data from teams since he's been a defensive coordinator in the league. FYI, Hatboro is close to Philadelphia. I knew who Mickey D was when you were still sucking on your momma's milk duds.

It took Eichel 7 years with no playoffs here, it took him 3 months there.

panthers, no draft capitol this year

atlanta has 2 2nds and 2 thirds

colts have an earlier 2nd and third from washington

washington probably a no go, late 2nd and late 4th

giants have an early 2nd, early 3rd and late 3rd

lions have early 2nd, early 3rd and late 3rd

saints have mid 2nd and late 3rd

seattle has early 2 and 2 early 3rds

I don't think we would have 20 mill tied up in starting safeties if they thought it wasn't a valued position.

weak class

qb from liberty may fall to the end of first rd

qb from pitt could be late first or early 2nd

qb's from north carolina and cinncy projected as early to mid 2nd rounders

but they get 5th year option if taken in first rd
