HUGE difference between Trevor Lawrence and Farrell. That's like comparing prime rib to white rice. Friendship or familiarity aside, Trevor Lawrence was the undisputed first pick in this draft. It didn't matter who the head coach was gonna be. Farrell got drafted to this team based solely on Meyer's familiarity with him. He certainly wasn't the BAP at the point he was drafted and we had Manhertz in the exact same role, so blocking TE wasn't a need either. I'm just stating facts. 

The Bills interest in Farrell makes sense for them, because they are a pass heavy team and they are looking to establish the run game. They need a TE who can help out blocking on the outside, so they can finally get their rushing game where it needs to be. They don't have anyone on their roster to fill this role. We already did. It's not a matter of Farrell being the BAP at that point. He would've filled a specific need for the Bills. Nobody is saying Farrell isn't a good blocker, he is. He just didn't make sense for our specific team.
