    I've wanted B. Johnson since January!

    And I'm not going to let any of you haters change my mind.


    Far and away, the biggest need on this team is a WR with size. I hate drafting WR's in the first round for many reasons, but especially because sometimes it takes a year and sometimes two before a WR steps it up.

    If we don't sign Johnson, it almost forces us to take a WR in the first round and our offense will struggle because of the fact that whoever we take in the first round may take time to develop.

    The fact is, BJ has great size and he's been in the league for 4 years which means he's entering his prime. I hear all the BS about his numbers, but stats don't always tell the story. You've all heard the stat arguments from both sides, so I won't get into detail. But this guy is a first round talent, who has been playing behind a pair of absolute superstars. There's only one ball on the field at a time.

    IMO, this guy is TOTALLY worth a shot, it would make our offense better over night and it would totally open up the draft.


    That is all.

      I dont understand this board, it seems like some people( not saying you) dont want to take a WR in the first round because he will take too long to transition into the pro game. But In the same breath a ton of people are pulling for DRC in the draft who is prolly the greenest player to get a high first round grade that i can remember.

          And if we get BJ, i'd still be totally be fine with taking a WR. I just don't want that to be our only option.

                    I can completely agree that the Bills need a big physical WR.

                    However, I'm just not sold on the guy. I for one am not trying to change your mind here Pat.

                    But, so many teams needing a WR and only 2 teams have brought him in for consideration? It just doesn't look right.

                          his production says it all. there is no reason to think that his production will all the sudden increase with a new team and a new offense, so your basically talking about the same if not worse production.

                          we mine as well just put teyo johnson out wide if all your looking for a is a big body with no play making abililty.

                            How can you say that? We're talking about a guy who was number 3 behind 2 superstars. If he comes here he'll be 1A and a prime target. Of course he'd have better numbers.

                              he was a starter for 8 games this year.. and played in the other 8 as a 3rd option.

                              and still his numbers looked like crap.
