Lets take a look at what the supposed paid professionals are picking for the Buffalo Bills in the 2022 NFL Draft.
Breece Hall
I can't find another prospect capable of having a bigger impact for the Bills at this selection. Hall would be a nightmare for opposing defenses.
Grade C+
Breece Hall RB Iowa St
I'm told Buffalo is going either running back or defensive back with this pick. Comped to Matt Forte, Hall is the choice.
Shockingly I am warming up to the idea of a RB. If this dude is a stud for four years and makes the offense better I can live with it. Is it wise? Is it a good value? Obviously not. Can a RB in any round be as good and a tenth of the price ? Sure. But Hall has a lot of boxes checked to aid the offense in a real way. Not picking up his 5th year option though hurts. Best bet is to trade back to early 2nd and hope hes there.
Grade C+
Andrew Booth
We know the Bills wanted Eric Stokes last year, but the Packers snatched him off the board. Cornerback hasn't been addressed since, so I expect that to be the pick here unless all viable options aren't available once again. The Bills need players who can defend all the great quarterbacks in the AFC, after all.
Starting a pattern of all corners jeez.
Grade C-
25. Bills: Trent McDuffie, cornerback, Washington.
They need help in the secondary, especially with Tre'Davious White returning from a torn ACL.
Uninspired
Grade: C
Kaiir Elam
The Bills really don’t have any glaring needs but if they want to get over the hump in the AFC, taking an excellent cover corner here in Elam shouldn’t hurt. He’d pair nicely with Tre’Davious White to give Buffalo more talent in the back end.
Corner is a need but cant McDerr find one anywhere?
Grade C+
Andrew Booth, CB, Clemson. In the end, the most logical position ends up being the pick for General Manager Brandon Beane. It’s hard to ignore the need in the Bills’ secondary, especially with the uncertainty around when Tre’Davious White will be ready to play coming off a knee injury. Booth was a second-team All-Atlantic Coast Conference selection in 2021 after finishing with 37 tackles, three interceptions and five passes defensed in 11 starts.
The final line of Booth’s nfl.com scouting report neatly summarizes why he makes sense for the Bills: “He needs to play more football, but his ball-hawking instincts, burst to close and toughness in run support will be very appealing for zone teams looking for an upgrade at cornerback.”
That sounds like a prospect who will fit in nicely to Sean McDermott's defense.
Didn't want to post this PAB's mock since he blocked us but i will any way. Booth a reach at 25
Grade D+
