I wonder if they'd consider bringing back Diggs?

Doesn't really mean anything. Anyone big enough and athletic enough to be a high NFL draft pick on the OL is gonna be a pretty dominant HS basketball player on sheer size and athleticism alone. https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/1826610/2020/05/21/how-mekhi-bectons-basketball-career-helped-prepare-him-for-the-nfl/

Makes sense for both teams IMO. Bills are in win now mode and the Bears are loaded at WR. Bears get more draft capital and the Bills get a better instant impact WR than they'd likely find in the 2nd round.

Wouldn't surprise me to see him end up back there. That's about the only offense he really fits.

Thats putting it kindly. He's one of the worst OL in the league and he's the reason why I have a lot of concerns about Bama's Proctor in the NFL. Similar builds and honestly Becton looked like the better mover in college and it's been Becton's lack of movement ability that has caused him to just be a gigantic turnstile in the NFL.

UVA hands down own the biggest choke job in NCAA history and you absolutely cannot talk about a team choking that knocked you out. This is peak loserville mentality. LOL

Literally a more recent natty and more overall. LOL I don't watch the NBA so I don't really care about NBA talent. OSU will put a lot more talent into the NFL than Indiana will this year but who's hanging the banner? Bragging about all the NBA talent while not winning a natty for a decade isn't the brag you think it is.

What Super Bowl? It's played in early April. We have a more recent natty than y'all do and sent K packing for a poo to win a second since y'all's last.

I can. Beating Carolina is all that matters to them and you take away Wilson AND Veesaar from this roster and we're not much better than incredibly ass.

Yep, I expect him to be Mekhi Becton 2.0. Even moving inside to OG hasn't been enough to protect him. He just can't move well enough. And Becton looked like a significantly better mover in college than Proctor did.

5-1 without Caleb Wilson and we were without both Wilson and Veesaar against NC State in their Super Bowl in the loss. I'll take it. Hell yeah I'll take it.

Nope. Can't do it until we see how he looks after his injury. It's a big one. One that routinely derails careers.

Yeah, with our luck with injuries we'd draft him and he'd pop his ACL walking across the stage to shake Goodell's hand. LOL

Yeah, for sure. If you had a crystal ball trading down to accumulate more picks to throw at sure things would almost always be the right move barring a HOFer being available who is going to be drafted in the next few picks.

I'm just not sold on us being highly interested in Fano. We seem to prefer big mauler type OL and Fano is the opposite.

We'll see. There's some guys who are intriguing. Drew Allar would probably be the top of my list. Talen Green has Anthony Richardson type physical talent and that's always intriguing if you can get it in the mid-rounds. The Baylor guy and the NDSU guy are two others. It's just really hard to predict exactly where these types of prospects are going to land on the draft and they're probably scattered wildly on draft boards across the league. All it takes is one for a guy to go a lot earlier than expected.

I have a very hard time believing any of these types of rumors this time of year. We're in peak lying season. LOL

I get it. I'm just saying that's why I wouldn't. Trying to get to the top by out-desperating other desperate teams is more likely to end up winning a race to the bottom. Everyone here knows I've been ready to move on from Bryce but I'd rather ride with Bryce than back up the Brinks truck to roll the dice on Willis with a contract with cap crippling guarantees.

A chance? Sure. Paid like a sure thing? Crazy. If watching Marty Hurney work taught me anything about re-signjngs and FA acquisitions it's that paying someone like they're great hoping that it'll vault them to greatness is a plan that almost always backfires.

He's not high on my list but you won't find me complaining if we draft him and he becomes an All-Pro TE. We have plenty of room on this roster for talent but we're not going to fill every need we have in the draft. We'd be dumb to go into this draft feeling pressed to fill needs. Just take the BPA at a position of need with every pick. We have enough needs there should be options at or near the very top of our board that also address a need.

Beware the guy who has a career season in a contract year. A story as old as professional sports.

Yeah, it's a spot that could be upgraded and it wouldn't shock me to see us take a corner in the mid to late rounds but it's well behind LB, OT, FS, C, TE, and DL at minimum.

Plenty of teams are QB desperate so someone will probably roll massive dice on Willis and give him a legit franchise QB contract but that's insane. He hasn't done anything that warrants anything more than signing a short term prove it deal and being offered a fair chance to compete for a starting job in camp. Signing up for any commitment level beyond that would be crazy.

We have way too many needs to trade up. There will be good prospects available throughout that also fit a need. If you had a crystal ball that could predict future All-Pros and HOFers, sure. But there's no sure things in the draft. Great prospects bust every draft and some mid to late rounders end up being very good pros.

If Tyson is the BPA at #19 I hope the phones are ringing.
