For example, the #Bills have had WR T.J. Graham on the trade block for several months, sources said.

I know most of us are fairly confident in our WR corps, but Graham is a former 3rd round pick and played college ball in the state at NCSU. He's entering his 3rd season and for his career has 54 rec, 638 yards and 3 TDs. 4.41 40 and was the ACC career leader in kickoff return yards with 3,153. If he could be had for a late round pick, I think it would be well worth it.

Honestly, I'd like to see him brought on board, but he was never very special as a kick returner at State.  He was good for only about 1 return TD a year, and another couple long ones.  However, he does have the speed to take the top off a defense and the height to catch it over a defender if necessary.  But he lacks consistency and has for his whole career.  Maybe playing at home would be a good motivator for him, or maybe Proehl can iron out his consistency problems, but I just have a feeling it wouldn't work out.

I see him as being a replacement for Ted Ginn, who I still don't think we've actually replaced this year. I think the one thing we're lacking in our WR corps is a guy who can be a burner and take the top off a defense like Ginn did last year. Maybe that's Brown, but if we can send a 6th or 7th round pick to get Graham, I'd rather use him in that role as he's at least shown he has the pedigree for that. 

 

I think he's worth a late round flier if that's all the Bills are looking for, and maybe playing for his home team will give him an extra bit of motivation.

Brown and King have the speed to take the top off of a defense.  Philly has kick/punt return experience.  They're both already on the roster, and wouldn't cost us anything extra to keep them.  There's no need to look for returners.  Only a few are really good anyway, and we can't afford them.

For people on mobile (this is in the OP):

hmmm....I'm not mobile but I do see where it looks like something is missing in the first post. Looks like a grey outline but with nothing in it.

 

 

*Weird.....now it's there.

I see the Bills cutting Graham. They have a loaded WR corp and I've been expecting it for a while.

 

If that happens scoop him up.

 

True. Wouldn't hurt to toss out a conditional 7th round pick to ensure we'd get him though (as he'd be subject to waivers if released).

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
