Watched most of these players snaps.
Sorry #BillsMafia .. these ratings map to eye test on the film.
What did Beane and rest of #Bills scouts see?
Curious case of #Keon
Pre-draft:
Keon was universally panned as a receiver as big, but lack athleticism, can't separate. #BillsMafia didn't want him drafted until late 2nd or early 3rd.
Post-draft:
Keon charmed the media; #BillsMafia fell in love. Homer #Bills Media hyped him up
Reality:
Keon is better as a person -- Smart, focused. These were not known prior to draft. Beane and staff, ofcourse knew.
All other pre-draft concerns are still present.
