Nevergiveup

I wanted to confirm this for you Dave. I just didn't think it would have been appropriate at the time. Good call.

All. I don't feel comfortable giving my opinion of this pick considering the Pats are going first and the potential for trade activity because of the time lapse between rounds. However I don't think it will from this list. Sorry guys. Enjoy tonight. I will check in later.

There is always a chance.

It was a fair question KFBD. If McGahee was cleared in some way and drafted anything is possible.

Wow. That is not a report I would feel comfortable with.

Not sure about that one. That should be a pretty easy thing to anticipate that it would get get out in that way. Not the first time it has happened. Just be happy that the football department is better than the marketing department.

I could be wrong Kelly. I would just be really surprised. Especially that high. Maybe they were just trying to help the kid out. You guys would probably know better if any team has publically stated that they do have a medical on him. That doesn't happen too often.

I will try to give you a short list of what I think a little later. No matter what, they go best available. So anyone they take that high probably will have a first round grade. That would be good no matter what position.

Just my humble opinion based on what I know about Mallet. For whatever that is worth.

I am not sure about Dalton. But I would be very surprised if they take QB there.

They likely have a medical on Bowers and will not take him. That would be a reversal of protocal for the team. I guess there is an outside shot if he really drops into the late rounds. Somebody here said they won't take Mallett and they are probably right. He has some serious character issues. I will try to jump back in here before tonight.

PTR. You are right, I do concur with Simon. I didn't feel it was appropriate earlier, but I feel comfortable they liked Ponder better than Gabbert any way.

Thanks. I like to pass on information. Primarily because, even when you disagree, this has to be the most passionate group of Bills fans anywhere. I have some legitimate insight and will continue to post when appropriate. But I can be wrong. So all the debate is warranted. No matter where this goes tonight, I will pass along any post draft info that I can as well. Enjoy the draft!

That is just too much of a wild card. The projections that you see that go that deep are not very accurate.

Ryan. I am not positive. All signs point to Newton and Dareus going 1 and 2. But that is not exactly inside information. Carolina knows who they are going to pick and has for sometime. There is no vasilating going on. The comment about having 4 players on the board is pretty funny and simply to see if someone will move up. If that is the case it is likely Miller or Green for the Bills. I hesitate to pass this on, but there is some Fairly talk. But it is not as specific as the other information, so I don't want to throw the board into a panic. Might just be becauuse he is well regarded. I also don't like being so nebulous. Sorry all. Some years things are just more readily available and apparent.

I really don't, but it doesn't/shouldn't work that way. They are always aware of needs, but Buddy will simply stick to his board. Not that there can't be a tie between players, but it doesn't happen that often. There are so many holes currently that the team can go best available in every round. At the end of the draft they will fill in any glaring gaps with undrafted players.

Coach. I don't know for sure. But I believe they would be happy with either one if the draft takes them that way.

Thanks U. He is of course entitled to his opinion. I am just trying to give him some additional insight. Not trying to change his mind. There are clearly varying positions on Newton and with good reason. I do not agree though that the comparisons to Maybin are appropriate. He is so unique physically for his position, I go back to there not being any really good parallels.

Maybin was a reach by a head coach deperate for a pass rusher. Buddy Nix will not draft a player based soley on need or to sell tickets. You should be happy about that. Everyone is capable of missing on a player. But Nix will only go by his evaluation. Maybin may have had a clean record, but there is no comparison from an ability standpoint. Newton would probably be a better defensive end than Maybin if they lined him up there tomorrow.

Yes, but I am not trying to make a case for drafting him.

Which example is indicative of future behavior? The stealing of the Xbox or the championship ring? Thanks Coach. Not providing an opinion on him. Just trying to add some perspective. I will check back tomorrow if I have any additional info.

That is probably true 3. But I would trade an Xbox for an National Championship ring.

Sorry Cap. Interviewing skills do not necessarily equate to integrity or leadership. Some bad guys are great actors.

Cap. All the concerns about Newton might be accurate. But believe me, sometimes the cons are the ones that come across great in the interviews.
