Nope. I was hoping they would, but I strongly suspected they would not. If Lynch turns into a franchise qb, your attempt at humor won't be very funny.
Shaq Lawson is a good pick, though.

Count me as one of them.
Defense in general is a huge need. I think that it's been proven now that a great defense can help to compensate for adequate quarterback play. Build the defense, and then develop a QB is the approach that I like. I think we take either Hackenburg, Jones, or Prescott tonight in the 3rd.

With Lawson there, I only considered one other option in Jack.

I was hoping for Jack, but he fell all the way out of the first, so teams are obviously scared. I would love it if the Bills got him in round 2. Those two guys instantly change the Defense, IMO.
Shaq is a freaking beast.

Yeah but it didn't end there. It was "please don't trade back into the first, please don't trade back into the first...."

I was positive they wouldn't pick Lynch, because Doug Whaley was making the pick. He will wait and take dumb as a box of rocks Cardale Jones.

LOL I went to bed after the pick and said to my wife "I hope they don't do something dumb while I'm asleep."

I was in the anyone but Ragland camp.

Re: Raise your hand if all you were thinking while the Bills were on the clock was
I was thinking that they're gonna take the guy who I thought they were taking for a few months :rofl:
I did have a side thought of trade down and get more picks because there was plenty of talent available still.

I usually just go and do other things after the Bills pick in the first, but I had a weird feeling that the Bills were going to give up next year's first and a bunch of picks next year to move back up and take that guy. It was a pretty dull last hour of the draft and I'm glad that it was that boring and that my gut feeling was wrong.

You guys forgot who's calling the draft now. Whaley came from Pittsburgh and they almost never trade away their high picks.
Before you guys jump on me for the Watkins trade, I'm convinced, like all the pundits in the media, that the ownership situation dictated that move and Brandon probably is the driving force behind it. If you watch Whaley's demeanor over the last 3 years, you see a guy more comfortable with his own skin at the GM position now. I would not doubt that his roots and true color are flowing freely these days.

I was at the Bills fieldhouse. You could hear Rappaport mention his name and everyone groaned. I was slightly ill for 10 seconds. Then I heard Lawson and just cheered.

Or he was in no way, shape, or form a 1st round talent. He's Blane Gabbert at best. Has the look of an NFL QB, but has never really shown the ability to be one after playing in a pedestrian system. Plus, he can't read the field.
