  1. My wish list: 1st pick - Fairly, Dareus or Bowers. As much as I want a QB, the D line needs the most help. 2nd pick - It would be nice to be able to get Cam Newton but we would most likely have to make a trade to get back into the first round. I might be willing to give up our 2nd round pick and one of our 4th round picks to trade up to get him but it takes 2 to trade like that. If we can't get Newton then I might go with Castana if available or back to a Defensive player, a DT or LB. 3rd pick - If we don't get Newton as stated above I would like Kaepernick or Mallett here. I was a huge Mallett fan but now like Newton and Kaepernick more but would be happy with any of them at this point. I don't like Ponder or Locker. I hope we keep Levi and let Brohm go but am going to trust Chan to make the best call here. If we are able to get Newton, I would want to add an OT or OG here. 4th pick - Add another LB. 5 - 7 We can look at a big & tall TE with good hands (I still like Andre Smith from VT) then the rest of the picks on D. I'm not being too specific on a lot of these but there are just a few names that I would actually buy a jersey for, if drafted by the Bills. For example, Jordan would be another great addition to the Bills.
  2. I agree. This would be an AWESOME draft! ! !
  3. The Bills are not in a position to just pick the best player available (BPA), that is a strategy that only works for established teams. Not addressing our needs and taking the BPA only makes us a revolving door of talent. We could just keep taking WRs, RBs, etc... but that will only take the team longer to get the talent where they really need it. I would like the Bills to get back to the Superbowl sooner - not later. IMO - DE is a position that we are weakest at. If we can trade down for more picks, that is great but we need some help on D that can come in and make an immediate impact.
  4. I agree with Mad Dog 69 and disagree with DreReed83. I recorded games of a lot of QB that I was interested in including Newton, Luck, Mallett, etc.. and have watched a some of the games 4 -5 times. Newton does go through his reads, he doesn't go through all of them all the time but he does have a good field awareness.
  5. I haven't seen anything special from Gabbert to what him in a Bills uniform. As far as Cam Newton not going through his progressions, I have to disagree. When he was forced to stay in the pocket he did a really good job picking defenses apart. Sure he likes to run but when it's 3rd and 3 and he runs for 13 or 3rd and 6 and he runs for 20, I'm fine with it. It seems that Newton has the same "It" factor as Tebow. I've learned not to believe everything I read in these forums or from the "experts".
  6. Kaepernick looks like the best seeior QB in this draft. The kid is tall, can run & has a cannon of an arm. I would still like to see the Bills get a DE with the #3 pick & then trade back up into the first round for Cam Newton. If that doesn't work we could then go after Kaepernick in a later round. I would rather go with Levi Brown than draft Ponder.
  7. I agree with Armchair GM. Levi seems to have it all except for a chance to prove it in the NFL. From what I have seen, we should keep him over Brohm. Levi is the biggest reason why I wouldn't be totally upset is Buffalo didn't draft another QB.
  8. I would go with Fairley, Newton & Bowers!
  9. I was not a big fan of Newton a few months ago. I was a big Mallett fan, but I have been watching their last few games over & over and the more I watch, the more I like Newton. In Newton's last game, Oregon used a pro-style defense that was designed to contain Newton and he was able to beat them by taking advantage of what thay gave him. I aslo watched how they interacted with their teammates on the side lines. Newton should be a great NFL QB.
  10. Tyrod Taylor is terrible. That draft is even worse for the Bills!
  11. I've said it before - in a perfect world we would be able to get the best DE available with our first pick & then get either Cam Newton or Mallett. This is one of the best drafts for QBs in a while. How often do the Bills get a chance to get a Heisman winner? Does anyone know who the last Heisman winner was that was drafted by the Bills .... and how did that work out for us?
  12. I couldn't disagree with this more. The NFL has the best draft process in sports.
  13. IN A PERFECT WORLD: I know a lot of people may disagree with this however, IMO - We we take the biggest/best DE in the draft at #3 (Fairley) and then trade up and get Cam Newton. A few months ago I was a huge fan of Mallet and not so big on Newton but I recorded a few of their games and have been watching them over & over and I am now a bigger fan of Newton than Mallet. Newton is a big kid with tons of talent & heart which will help him be successful in the NFL. Mallet is a little too frail and combine that with his lack of mobility, he may very well have a short career in the NFL. If the Bills get either Fairley or Newton, I will buy their jerseys. If we get both of them I will buy 2 jerseys. I haven't been excited about a Bills player enough to buy a jersey in a long time.
  14. It's pretty hard to truly evaluate our secondary since we our Defensive front is so weak. When the RBs are getting huge holes to run through and the QBs have all day to pick us apart, it's kind of hard to determine how good/bad our secondary players are. We need some serious help at DE, DT & LB. Actually, now that I think of it, we're not giving RBs huge holes, they just run right over, through and around us.
  15. I can only dream of where the Bills would be now if they didn't waste picks on plays like Trent Edwards, Maybin, McCargo and even the revolving door at RB. If we had addressed the lines, both Off & Def, and LBs. We would be in the playoffs already. Our scouting dept. is either totally clueless or someone is making desicions without listening to them.
  16. Mallett reminds me of Arron Rodgers at Green Bay. I would really like to get a talent like him or Cam Newton even though our D needs so much help.
  17. If the Bills take a WR, RB or CB with their first pick, they will loose about half of their fan base. They need to take a QB, DE, DT or even an Offensive lineman if they are going to show their fans that they are serious about turning things around. The only way they could get away with taking another RB is if they already have plans to trade Spiller.
  18. I just looked at some draft boards and a couple of them have Carolina taking DaQuan Bowers or AJ Green and Denver taking Patrick Peterson or Marcell Dareus. How sweet would that be if Luck could drop into our laps like that?
  19. We need our draft picks but I'd be willing to throw in some of our previous fist round picks to trade up to get Luck. We could throw in Maybin, McCargo & Spiller.
  20. We still need a QB so our first pick should be: Luck, Mallett or Newton, in that order. If we can get Luck, we should take him, if not than we should go for Mallett (his huge arm would be a great fit for the windy Ralph and Gailey's spread formations). Newton would be my 3rd option for a first round QB, he has a strong arm, is smart, plays with a ton of passion and can run. There is no reason why we can't get one of these guys. Then we go DE or DT with the next pick or two, then on to LB, RT, and perhaps a TE such as Andre Smith from VA Tech. Andre Smith is a big kid that can block but also has great hands and may still be availble around the 5th round or so. I wish Brian Brohm good luck where ever he ends up. Go Bills!!!!!!
  21. We can trade a few of our previous first round picks to trade up with Carolina to get Luck. We can throw in McCargo, Maybin and Spiller to trade up.
  22. I agree that we should have kept Incognito if he was willing to play here, however it is time to move on. Green was a huge mistake and I'm glad to see him go. At least this staff doesn't insist on sticking with players as much as our past staff used to.
  23. I am also pretty happy with Gailey. I am glad that we have him & not Shanny at this point. The way things are going in Washington, players are not going to want to play there. McNabb will start this weekend but I wouldn't be surprised if he's not the starting QB in Washington next year. I've been saying all year that I would rather the Bills end the season on a winning note than to start out good and then go down hill. The next 3 games are going to be really important, not only to further judge talent for players and coahes but to give the fans a good feeling going into the offseason. I orignailly wanted Cohwer as head coach but so far am happy with Gailey. Let's Go Buffalo! ! !
  24. I would take Vick in a heart-beat. I would even trade our number one draft pick for him. He's a proven NFL QB. You can never be sure what you get with a draft pick. If you had a choice between Luck, Mallett or Vick who would you take?
