    My top Players I would love for us is:

    1. Cooper Dejean - Freaky Athletic and Instinctive. Position versatile. If he is there we have to take him.
    2. Payton Wilson - Chad Brown reincarnated. Love his athleticism and high effort. He would instantly solve our coverage problems in the middle of the field.
    3. Jackson Powers - Tone setter on the inside who would solidify the interior of the line for years.
    4. TJ Tampa - Perfect compliment to JPJ. Great in run support as well.
    5. Tykee Smith or Mike Sainristil- Perfect Slot CB.

    1. Cooper Dejean probably won't be there at our first pick, but if he is, he would be that strong safety that they tried to make Minkah into this year. Strong safety with the range of a free safety, the size to cover a TE, and the quickness and speed to cover slot receivers. Plus can go out and cover on an island, although it's not his strong suite. Would also keep Minkah at free safety, and he's less likely to get injured there.
    2. Payton Wilson or Edgerrin Cooper would both strengthen the linebacker corps and provide that Will we need. Trotter is a possibility, although he's more of a thumper and his height will be a minus when covering TE's.
    3. I love Jackson Powers-Johnson, but it's first round or bust with him. I would gladly take Frazier or Van-Pran in the second if it means Dejean or one of the tackles in the first.
    4. TJ is a good 2nd round option if the first is Powers-Johnson, but he probably won't be there.
    5. I like Sainristail more than Smith, but a good slot, if we get an outside in FA, would make me happy.

    To answer your question, Tory Taylor, P, Iowa, for obvious reasons.

    My must have is T'Vondre Sweat in the 2nd.

    I also like Xavier Legette in the 2nd.

    In the event that we do t get JPJ in the 1st I like Frazier in the 2nd too.

    If I had my way, I'd trade our first for 2 2nd's

    And draft the above 3. Then draft Kiran Amagbaje in the 3rd to play Tackle and Gray LB and Mcglogthern CB in the 4th

    Joe Milton in the 6th if he last that long.

    I do like to watch, but as always it is hard to judge football players in shorts.

    I don't think we have any chance or interest this year. Keon Coleman

    One thing about Joe Milton is that you could have him throw a hail Mary from the 12 yard line. He threw a pass at the Senior Bowl 88 yards in practice.

    I think he'll end up getting drafted on the early 4th round. He is too toolsy.

    You can simply give him 3 years to learn and hire a QB coaching assistant specialist to develop him. If it doesn't work, oh well. But if it does, he could be the Bills guy with a little more speed and power.

    I don't like him as a first round prospect.

    He just makes plays. He is not Marvin Harrison but there isn't to many like him. Reminds me of juju
    #7 man in the clutch.
