He stould out all week in the East-West Shrine practices and game. Power Guard, can anchor and get push in the running game.

One of the four OG's I mentioned yesterday in another thread,(and several other times) with Cann, Tomlinson and Jackson.

Sharp thinking.

Round 3 for us (consideration), I'm guessing.

Since the Bills first few picks always seem to be guys that have been in for visits, I would guess Carl Davis in the 2nd and John Miller in the 3rd from that list right now.

I'm surprised they haven't brought in more DB's, but I guess they still have time.

Aren't teams allowed to have up to thirty? Kind of surprised we haven't seen a longer list published somewhere at this point.

I found a few extra to the above listing

Jamon Brown, OT, Louisville
Chaz Green, OT, Florida
John Miller, G, Louisville
Nate Orchard, DE/OLB, Utah
Garrett Grayson, QB, Colorado State
Bryce Petty, QB, Baylor
Nelson Agholor, WR, USC
Chris Dunkley, WR/CB, South Florida
Byron Jones, CB/S, Connecticut
Darius Kilgo, DT, Maryland
Karlos Williams, RB, Florida State
Carl Davis, DT/NT/DE in 3-4, Iowa
Max Garcia C Florida



Brown played next to Miller at Louisville and is interesting, since he looks like he could play OT and OG. Garcia has played every position on the OL and stood out at the Senior Bowl. C and OG are his best positions. Jones and Orchard could be strong considerations on Friday, depending on how the Bills are thinking long term.

I will be mildly surprised if we don't draft either Grayson or Petty

For the record, four of the picks last year were pre-draft visits (Watson, Kouandijo, Brown and Cockrell)

Nailed it.

He is a talent at OG and could see some C duty. Really moves out DT's in the running game.

Now I feel much better about the Darby pick.

If he can dominate in the run game, fine by me. We're obviously focusing on being able to run the ball.

East-West Shrine standouts- NFL Draft Scout - CBS Sports

John Miller (http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/players/1851279/john-miller), OG, Louisville (6-3, 315): Mike Mayock pointed out Miller several times on the telecast and he was right in doing so, as the powerful drive blocker simply blasted defenders off the line throughout much of the game. Miller has the relative low center of gravity and thick base that scouts look for in interior lineman and has long enough arms (33"). In pass protection, he showed balance and reasonably light feet to mirror, as well as strong hands to latch and control. He also demonstrated the core flexibility and power to anchor against the bull rush.

Round 3 for us (consideration), I'm guessing.

Good call there.

Apparently the Bills had injury concerns with Tre Jackson.

#Bills (https://twitter.com/hashtag/Bills?src=hash) have injury concerns about Tre' Jackson. John Miller a likely pick, if no trade.

Love the pick. Road grader inside, can probably start right away

Watching that video in post #16 you can see him move quickly from his first block to his second. Nice.

I could see him making us forget about Chris Williams quickly. And maybe lighting a fire under Cyril Richardson.
