Buffalo Bills vs. Me 2015 NFL Draft

#50. Buffalo Bills took: FSU CB Ronald Darby. (I had taken Tre Jackson multiple times who didn't go until the 4th round). My pick: Randy Gregory. Hard to not take a guy despite the DL the Bills already have. I get the CB, but man.. Gregory with Rex Ryan? I'd take that chance. What's not to like about this spot? Potentially get more elite at the pass rush?

#81: Buffalo Bills took: Louisville OG Jon Miller. (I had taken Josh Shaw multiple times; he also went in the 4th round). I'm going with FSU OG Tre Jackson. I think Jackson ends up a better player than Miller and was rated higher coming out. Jackson seemed like a better fit to me, and he still does.. of course, I don't study film much or look at it the same way they do.. but I did notice Jackson a few times this year when watching FSU.

#155: Buffalo Bills took: FSU Karlos Williams, RB. I know he didn't get picked.. but I'm stick with my MSU FS Kurtis Drummond. Shocked he didn't get drafted; I can't go off my board too far. I watched the No Fly Zone often in the Big 10 and I get the no passing game garbage, and Waynes is elite.. but Drummound really solidified that defense at the back end. I'm still shocked he wasn't picked.

#188: Buffalo Bills took: Clemson OLB Tony Steward. My pick was Damian Swann originally who went 167. At this stage I'm going with a guy that was picked shortly after Oregon CB Ike Ekpre-Olomu. Why is he still available?! I get the knee issue, but man.. what an elite talent still on the board!!

#194: Buffalo Bills took: FSU TE Nick O'Leary. (I took Nick Boyle who went at 171, so he wasn't available.) I'm fine at staying with Nick O'Leary at this spot. I mean.. we're down near the end of the draft so unless there is somebody that you're just in love with.. why deviate from what the team really does?

#234: Buffalo Bills took: Central Arkansas WR Dezmin Lewis. This is a tough pick because it's hard to not like Lewis' size and, of course, I'm a big OL fan.. but I'm going with WR Tre McBride. I think he finds a spot on this roster and helps to stretch the field.

Buffalo Bills Mock 2.0

I got to a 2nd mock draft this year... allllllllriiiiiiiiiiighhhhhttttttttttttttt

I use the cbssports.com rankings and cannot draft a player ABOVE the number of the pick. For instance, the Bills first pick is #50, so the best prospect I could take would be 50th on the cbssports.com big board. Fair enough? I suppose so.

#50- (Previous pick: Tre Jackson): Staying with Tre Jackson.. Pro style offense, leg drive and can get to 2nd level. Great run fit.. I did consider Maxx Williams

#81- (Previous pick: Josh Shaw): Keeping Josh Shaw still. Too good of a defensive player to pass up especially with Rex.. he has no problem taking questionable guys and getting them to buy in.

#155- (Previous pick 147: Kurtis Drummond.. who moved all the way up to 113th in the rankings).. Markus Golden OLB Missouri. Drummond is gone, I thought about upgrading the safety position or even taking another WR.. but I went with the edge rusher instead. Some questions about his size, but he can get pressure off the edge and is good at getting in passing lanes. A worthwhile gamble this late.

#188- (Previous: 172 Ryan Russell, 178 Sean Mannion). Damian Swann CB Georgia. Another DB, not quite S size, but did play there a tad at Georgia. Great ball skills, plays bigger than his size and impressive in ST coverage.

#194- Nick Boyle, TE, Delaware. Small school, athletic, not quite the grinding, blocking TE that Rex probably wants.. but adds some versatility to a lackluster position.

#234- (Previous: 209 Antwan Goodley) Shane Carden- QB ECU. Worth a flyer late, smart QB with good enough arm strength and prep work.
