After seeing his list, one Bills curveball pick could be Peria Jerry, DT, best fit in the 4-3, quick penetrator.

NFL network reported the cards nixed a 2 and 3 plus Winston Justice from the Eagles....id say that want way more than just a 2.

Micheal Johnson.....no thanks.

Dont most scouts say Loadholt doesnt have the feet to play LT, we already have a big slow RT.

Yeah we dont need a TE, the Dereks will be awesome like all our other 4th round TEs we drafted. Well run lynch two downs, then try and get it to Evans then punt. Im sure Peyton hates having Dallas Clark, Romo hates having Witten. Luckily we have 2 serviceable, journeymen at TE that wont do anything, who wants more weapons. The defense benefits so much from the offense going 3 and out.

Im with a lot of ya. Im sick of the Bills always putting off the TE position. Its not like we have the scariest offense in the league last year. The running game seems solid, TO and Evans should be good, why not add the final piece with a Blue Chip TE instead of our usual disposable 4th round, journey man type TE selection. The best case IMHO is to hopefully someone is there at 11 that someone wants to move up and grab and we can move down a few spots. And get an extra pick. Draft could go like this..... Bills trade pick 11 for pick pick say 17 and pick up a third. At 17 Bills take TE Pettigrew At 28 Bills take OT either Britton or Beatty who's ever left 2rd Bills take DE Connor Barwin or Larry English Bills trade a third and a fourth to move back into the 2nd round Bills second 2rd Bills take OC Eric Wood or Jonathan Luigis Remaining 3rd Best available OLB

I dont get all the hype about Ayers. Why didnt he do more in college?

The sky isnt falling because we traded Peters. A lot of these same people said the same thing when Jonas Jennings was lost to San Fran................................... and went on to become a bust. Jason Peters wasnt playing at Walter Jones level but yet wanted to be paid like it.

Im liking the trade. Every scout has this OT class rated a A for talent. Having the 11 pick to get a good OT at one third the cost of Peters is fine by me.

I wonder if scouts a few years ago wrote about the Bills having only Gandy and a undrafted free agent, former tight end at left tackle.

I dont think Mack is the 3rd rated center. Woods is moving up but in case you didnt notice Unger got rolled at the senior bowl.

Im starting to like Pettigrew more and more. The Bills in their history have never had a great TE. All this talk about how TO can prevent opposing defenses from doubling evans, imagine giving opposing defenses another thing to think about by adding Pettigrew. It would give Trent a safe option when he needs it. A big plus is Pettigrew is a stud blocker beside being a receiving threat. Should help Lynch in the running game. One of the best ways to help the defense is for the offense to stay on the field more and score more points.

All though I like Everett Brown, the bust history of FSU DEs is a big worry, just as the recent string of PSU busts raises concerns about Maybin. I think one thing overlooked with Pettigrew is besides being a great receiving threat he is the best blocker. Didnt he handle Arakpo. Seems like Pettigrew would add a lot to the performance of the offensive line.

One threw for 4500 yards and the other has zero 300 yard games in his career. Enough said.

Man their all just about a roster of disasters. Ive seen the Everette Brown youtube reel and he looks good to me but then again you have all those FSU DE busts. Arakpo got manhandled by Pettigrew and I saw his youtube reel and a lot of his sacks looked like missed blocking assignments by weaker competition. Pettigrew has speed issues and for the most part 11 is too high for him. Cushing has injury concerns, Malalauga has questions about his coverage. Dont get a great vibe on all these guys mock drafts have us taking.

Maybin worries me. He doesnt have a large body of work, and not sure if he really fits either DE or OLB......anybody remember Michael Haynes DE PSU, first round bust with the bears.

Two first rounders and another pick for Peters? Why didnt you just ask for their whole draft while you were at it.

For people who like Arakpo, didnt Pettigrew own him blocking in this years game? Seems like Pettigrew is strong in blocking and receiving.

Everett Brown intrgues me....go to youtube and check out his highlight reel. The guy has some quick moves and seems relentless. I know FSU DE bust history in the past, but this guy I think is different. Maybin worries me because hes either too small for DE or hes moves to LB where he doesnt have a lot of experience.

Terrence McGee just hit the jackpot. Hes in a much stronger negotiating position after this season with Greer leaving.

Wow...to people whining about the signings......theres plenty of time for more cuts.....a lot happen before roster incentives kick in and a lot happen right before training camp...

Ive been saying the same thing. It made more sense to invest in Greer this year and let Mcgee , who is older, go next year, which may be an uncapped year.

Why does everyone act like Hardys ACL means zero production in 2009. Seems I remember Rod woodson tearing his ACL in the opener and playing in the SB in the same season. Seems the Patriots arent writing off Bradys next season. Do I think Hardy will light it up...no but I do think he can contribute significantly especially in the 2nd half of the season.

I think it could make sense for Detroit and us on that trade. If you think Bills fans are down on their team, imagine trying to get fired up for the upcoming Lion season. Plus Detroits economy is about as bad as you can get, the Lions really need 2 impact players and especially at QB to give their fans some hope. I get the impression Stafford is slipping on draft boards due to questions about his accuracy. Plus Sanchez is catching up to Stafford, and there is a big dropoff after those 2. If the Lions could get a Curry at no.1(the safest pick in the draft), and one of the Qbs at 11 it could be a good move. I would do the Lynch trade also but I dont think the Seahawks do it. Who knows if the league drug tested him. In the age of Pacman Jones and Michael Vick, i dont think teams are eager to overlook this stuff, its another strike. If they would do it, I wouldnt take a runningback. Id be happy filling needs with all those picks and going in to the year with Fred Jackson and a FA signing. Just because Fred wasnt a high pick doesnt mean he cant be the feature back, just ask the Steelers with Willie Parker. Bills could end up with TE Pettigrew at 20....best center at 33(Mack or Unger) with Detriots 2nd, defensive end (Connor Barwin or Robert Ayers) with Seatles 2nd and Ziggy Hood DT with our own 2nd. Plus you dont overpay for 2nd round picks. Fills a lot of needs without overpaying overpriced free agent talent.

My 2 cents.... 1. I dont know why there isnt much talk about resigning Greer. Hes younger than Mcgee and Mcgee will be a free agent next year. I would sign the younger guy and let Mcgee go in free agency next year. With McKelvin and Parish on special teams Mcgees return skills arent needed like they use to. But hey were the Bills so we'll probably lose Greer this year and Mcgee next so we can draft another CB in RD 1. 2. Sign proven talent and dont overpay for journeymen. Pat Williams wasnt asking for crazy money yet we still let him go. Winfield probably makes about the same as kelsay and Clements was probably close to what we signed Dockery for. As soon as its feasable financially cut Kelsay. 3. Trade down before you trade up. The Losman and McCargo picks were simply horrendous. More 2nd picks are gold, quality players without the first round price. 4. If Edwards doesnt develop, get one of the blue chip QBs in next years draft. I agree with the poster above, if you dont have a Ravens type defense you are not going to win without a top QB. When i found out on here Trent has never had a 300 yard game I went wow, didnt realize that. 5. Fire the entire front office. 6. Fire Jauron. 7. Do whatever it takes to get Cowher, give him GM position too if he wants that. Whatever it takes, money-title I dont care just get it done. If not get a Shanahan. 8. I said this before, if were going to turn this around I almost think we need to take a step back this year and have a top 5 draft pick next year to get one of the great QBS coming out next year.
