Buffalo Bills 2014 Draft: Rd1#4 WR Sammy Watkins; Rd2#44 C. Kouandjio; Stevie traded

[Sports Enthusiast]

You should. I was high on Cordy Glenn a few years back and look how good he has become. You put Glenn on a line with Urbik, Wood and now that Kouandjio kid. That's a solid O-Line. At worst Kouandjio is a solid RT and potential for LT. Real good value in the second round. Besides, there wasn't much value at TE left, defense is very good already. Good solid pick IMO.

He's obviously got health issues if he failed a. skins physical. He played in the SEC. Best conference in america. You have to be concerned if he had a decent amount of struggles. The difference with him and Glenn is Glenn was never hurt health wise or what not.

The Bills must think Watkins is an upper-echelon type of talent....Let's hope they're right.

Everyone thinks that.

I wouldn't mind Jackson Jeffcoat in the 4th and then get a depth RB and someone for the secondary with our 2 5ths. With our 7th I say **** it and draft Tajh Boyd. I mean how many 7ths pan out for us that often? If we don't draft Boyd in the 7th and assuming he goes undrafted I can see us brining him in as a Udfa.

So with our 4th,5th,5th and 7th I'm hoping for DL,RB,CB/S and a QB with our last pick or maybe another OL. We are set at linebacker, WR and most likely tight end as Chandler and Moeaki are fine for this season and we still got the blocking Tes left. I definitely want a QB drafted though even if it's a #3. Tuel must go this year he's so bad. I wouldn't mind a flier on Andre Williams or Ka'Deem Carey at RB, even if Spiller is re-signed I think this is Freddy's last year and Dixon is mainly a special teamer.

Stay away from Williams, guy doesn't catch the ball out of the backfield.
Give me Desir in the 4th, Carey 5th, Stork 5th, Henderson 7th.

I though James Andrews was the skins team doctor.....

So after the Preston pick, the Bills finally admitted that Lawson is a DE now. I'm not looking forward to this new defense at all.

havent been paying attention, did the bills actually say lawson is moving to DE or are you suggesting that because they drafted a lb then lawson must be moving to de?

 

[Stats01]

Disagree. Not at all excited about the 2nd guy

Are you kidding me? Kuondjio owned ND in the National Championship game 2 years ago. He made pancake after pancake. Alabama ran continuously to his side all game!! they ran the hell out of ND in that game. Kuandjio is a beast, 6 ft 7, 322 lbs. If you haven't seen much of him and I assume you haven't you'll quickly change your mind on him. The only thing that prevented him from being a top 15 pick was his knee injury. Other than that he is going to be a star. He's only 20 years old as well. I love our picks so far.

Uhmmm pretty much everyone thinks this. It's why he was projected to go in the top 5 all along. Calvin Johnson, AJ Green type of potential.

I can see being concerned about his health. But if he's healthy, this dude is a damned monster.

 

[SoFFacet]

The one thing that is very obvious by the FO's decisions this weekend is that they are not hedging their bets, at all. They are sure that EJ is the guy. Drafting a significant QB in 2014 or 2015 is not and never was a plan. They are sure that Watkins will be a tier 1 receiver. They are confident in Woods, Williams, and Goodwin, leading them to ship SJ, who they view as a good-not-great holdover from a bygone era. They are not scared of any medical issues with Cujo. They are confident that the team overall is actually pretty good, and just needs better qb/coaching/luck/injuries/etc to succeed.

The moves are good if the assumptions that support them hold up. If not, well, you know.

There will always be criticism that he doesn't have quick feet, but that's exactly why he's suited for RT. His wingspan, reach and strength are ideal. The pick is rock solid and better value than Martin/Lewan at #9.

Director of Player Personnel said it after the Preston pick. They still need to draft a DE today IMO.

 

[Takeo]

So we're 3 for 3 on the pre-draft visitors. Round 4 could be a DB, Cockrell, Aikens or Breeland.

I'm also secretly hoping for Seastrunk. But I guess that wouldn't be a secret anymore.

Q: Is the plan to have Jerry Hughes as a defensive end in the new defensive system?
A: Jerry will get the first crack at it as a defensive end.

Q: Is that the same thing for Manny Lawson?
A: Manny is going to play defensive end.

 

[Husko]

It'd be nice to get a bigger DE that can come in on running downs. I have no doubt Hughes and Lawson can get to the QB, but on third and one I'm handing the ball off over tackle and getting that first down.

 

[Takeo]

With the next three picks, I'd like to see a DB with experience at both CB and FS, a bigger DE, and an OG. RB/TE is still the wildcard for me.

 

[Mit Yarrum]

Big run orientated DE
Well rounded RB
CB
QB

Would like to see Antone Exum. If not for his injury, he's a first/second round pick.

 

[Taro Tsujimoto]

Bills pick Ross Cockrell, CB out of Duke.

 

[missingmika]

Bills pick Ross Cockram, CB out of Duke.

I think Cockrell is the name... not Cockram.

 

[CrazyPsycho]

Cockrell seems like a universally like pick.

From another board, Duke fan....
guy has absurd work ethic and instincts. have no idea how he measures, but he basically never makes a mistake.

Bryce Brown to Buffalo

Bills acquire RB Bryce Brown from the Eagles, per Schefter:

[Mit Yarrum]

Ohhh, I like Brown a lot. Lots of untapped potential there.

 

[Takeo]

Mayock likes Cockrell. Says he has everything but needs to add size and strength. Also potential at FS.
