Pre-Draft Analysis
Grable is a versatile player. He started 27 games at left tackle over the past two seasons but has experience lining up on the right side and occasionally kicks inside to right guard. He has also been training for a possible move to center since the 2022 season. Grable is an ascending player -- who played quarterback in high school and some tight end early in his career -- and has the tools to continue to get better. He tied for the second-quickest 10-yard split at his position at the combine this year (1.69 seconds), and that burst shows on tape. He walls off defenders in the run game and flashes the ability to recover in pass protection. -- Steve Muench

This confirms what I said about Allen and studying the Receivers

Bills have a Huge Offensive line Room. Wouldn't want to be having to feed that Crew.

Also, Over the Cap projects that the #Bills will receive compensatory draft picks in the fourth and fifth rounds for the losses of Gabe Davis and Leonard Floyd. If that plays out, the team will have 10 picks, including six in the first four rounds. That's pretty strong.

I’d rather play Justin Shorter every snap this season than give Courtland Sutton an extension.

Like their draft this year and this is going to come off as a backhanded complement but I'm glad they didn't trade next year's 1 because I think this could be a 10-7 or 9-8 team that misses the playoffs. They had a great shot at the superb owl over the past 2 years and I'm glad that Beane understands he needs to reload. It's just the reality that they need to rebuild this thing on the fly.

Absolutely love the Cole Bishop pick. If Micah retires, I hope they can bring him in to coach this kid

Beane literally drafted the WR Josh Allen wanted.

It’s confirmed publicly.

And it’s not rebuilding. It’s retooling. Beane upgraded the D line and safeties.

Diggs - okay we got worse. But Samuel is a win. Coleman is a win.

Agree with you.

Are they still favorites to win the division? Probably.

Is Beane including Allen a bit a nice little story or a really big deal?

If you have an elite franchise QB …. You listen to them and what they want.

I think it’s smart.

Oh and add in Allen wanted Dorsey. Forgot about that

It's a nice little story. If Coleman went 31 to the Niners, it would have been no big deal and Allen would be talking about how much he loves McConkey. He knows how to play the media.

I think the bills wanted McConkey or Coleman.

There are way too many things that Allen has gotten his way to make it only a “little story.”

Explained Kinkaid
Explain Dorsey
Explain Curtis Samuel

I’m sure there are other examples we don’t know about
