I'd like to trade back also, but I don't see anyone who would want the 8th spot. I want to draft Alec Ogletree in the first. I think he is a better LB then Te'o. Then take Nassib, Jones, Boyd (if he goes pro) in the 2nd. I want a WR also somewhere in the draft or bring in a FA.
Im not opposed to Matt Moore. He has a pretty good arm and managed the games he played in Miami quite well. Draft a QB like Wilson/Bray/Jones and let them compete for the job like they did in Seattle.
At first I was pissed we hired Marrone. I am beyond encouraged now from the way he has come into Buffalo. Once again I am somehow drawn back to this team and excited for this team. Go Bills!!
Who are possible free agents Marrone may be interested in? Here is a list of some of the top players for each position. I left RB's for obvious reasons.

Joe Flacco BAL
Jason Campbell CHI
Matt Moore MIA
Tarvaris Jackson BUF
WR-
Dwayne Bowe KC
Greg Jennings GB
Wes Welker NE
Mike Wallace PIT
Brian Hartline MIA
TE-
Fred Davis WAS
Dustin Keller NYJ
Jered Cook TEN

Cliff Avril DE DET
Michael Bennett DE TB
Randy Starks DT MIA
Richard Symore DT OAK
DB-
Jairus Byrd S BUF
Brent Grimes CB ATL
Dashon Goldson S SF
Aqib Talib CB NE
We have to keep Levitre and Byrd no question. Sorry if something similar has been posted.
May be getting ahead of myself with no OC or DC in place.
Here's the Pinstripe Bowl where Syracuse beat WV. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27_09VIL3d8 A minute into the game the announcer says discipline has been an issue for Syracuse all year long. Avg 8 penalties per game. Dosent sound too good to me.
I agree completely about Boyd and Murray being the best QBs in this class. Murray is my top choice, though I believe he is staying in school. I posted in another thread about drafting Boyd in the 1st and DeAndre Hopkins in the 2nd. Really would want Chip Kelly to run this offense.
I say we offer top pay to Chip Kelly then draft Tajh Boyd and DeAndre Hopkins. Tajh would fit great in a Kelly offense and Hopkins and Tajh obviously are on the same page. Hopkins had 1405 yds and 18 TDs this yr at Clemson. Tajh has had two stellar years as the Clemson signal caller. Bills starting offense would look like this QB Tajh Boyd RB CJ Spiller WR Stevie Johnson WR DeAndre Hopkins WR TJ Graham.
Once again I'm not comparing CJ to Barry in any way, or any other back for that matter. Im just supporting my belief that he can be a 2000 yd rusher if given the chance. CJ's 2012 season avg after today is a 6.47. In his 5 best games his avg 7.8 and in his 5 highest carries/game its 6.9. In his 5 highest games for carries he has 624 yds on 90 carries. This being said, its showing his avg is easily sustainable or improved with more carries.
Just thrown some numbers out there. Not saying he is better then Barry by any means. Barry is one of the best if not the best ever. Lets just say he had 5 more carries a game to this point (very possible) he would roughly have 258 att 1677 yds and a game to go. He has amazing ability and potential to become one of the top 10 in my opinion.
If CJ had as many carries as AP does to this point, with his 6.5 avg he would have 2,041 yds with one game remaining. AP 314 att 1,898 yds CJ 183 att 1,185 yds
Spillers coming out party was week 1 after Freddy got hurt. He had a less then steller performance against MIA and still had 130+ yds total. Thats not bad for the worst game hes had all yr.
I have been a Bills fan since I can remember and I dont think I have been this fed up with the team in all my life. I'm tired of piss poor football from One Bills Drive. I made a few pages on facebook to express my disgust. I'm asking any of you who agree with me to "like" these pages. Maybe no one will like them and it will fail, or maybe together we can all show how tired we are of this franchises crap.
Lets make One Bills Drive hear our voice, from here in Maine to Buffalo to California!
