    When everyone was wetting themselves about meach I went on record and said it would be a terrible pick up...and to save the money.... he could never break into the starting line up for a reason in NO...and also he lived off of a system and drew brees ... we don't have the same system and fitz is my boy but he ain't not drew brees

    remember Da'quan Bowers???

    Nothing negative about him...but last year I remember when he fell in the draft so many Bills fans was getting excited with the possbility of having him and Dareus playing together but the Bills to Arron Williams.

     

    And some of us were upset.....even in draft cj spiller two years ago...we was like what the hell...now we can't wait to see him next year....

     

    My point is Buddy Nix has a plan and it has been coming together ... every team has a 3 year plan.... Decisive decision making and some luck is how the good teams are built

    My thoughts on our first 3 picks

    I was going to post this in the why we will draft Floyd, but I wanted to make sure that it didn't get buried.

     

    The more I think about it, Floyd will be the pick if Jacksonville or Miami doesn't beat us to him (some of which depends on the Flynn sweepstakes). If Miami does not get Flynn, they might look to trade with the Vikings to take Tannenhill, in case the Browns (or Miami feels they do) have sights on him at #4. After the season ended Buddy said they wanted to resign Stevie and get another WR; if they didn't resign him we were going to get 2. During the season Ralph said we need more "runners" to help Ryan. We brought in Williams and Meachem, didn't get Meachem - Buddy didn't like the value. Now Buddy is saying we are set with WRs, we have 9 under contract who we believe in - it is a Smokescreen. The FA value of WRs and CBs have been really high. We played hardball with Stevie and got a great deal on him. I don't see why wouldn't grab Floyd if he is there lock him up for the max contract (I think 5years). Cheaper than FA and is an impact player.

     

    Buddy is on record saying he doesn't like the DL/LBs around pick 10. They talk Hairston up. We have a solid interior line. I just don't see Buddy and Chan placing a big value on an LT the #10 pick. I think they would be fine with placing Chandler over there and having our RB chip the DE to help the LT out. I can see us getting a versatile LT who can play all positions in round 3 (would say Round 2, but read on as to why not) or later.

     

    We won't be drafting this high again for awhile (I hope). If Floyd is there I think he is our pick. If he isn't and either Claiborne or Kirkpatrick is there as a CB we might go that route. Our secondary is getting older. McGee is banged up, McKelvin is in a contract year and has been inconsistent at best. In the 4-3 D we will be playing in nickel a lot, against the Pats* especially, meaning only 2 LBs on the field. We have tons of D lineman. Dareus, Williams and Williams is a nightmare for teams. As much as BillinNYC will hate it, we are going to need some help here sooner or later. If Floyd is gone, and one of those CBs is there we will take them.

     

    I guess that it will be either Floyd or Claiborne (doubtful) or Kirkpatrick. It depends on our values and who is available at the time and who we think will be there at our next pick. Such as is there a big drop-off between Floyd and Stephen Hill (Gailey should have good intel on the latter) vs Kirkpatrick, Jenkins, Robinson & Gilmore. We will either go WR, CB or CB, WR.

     

    I wouldn't rule a trade back into the late first or up in the early second to grab a player who slid in a position we want or if there is a run and we really want a player. I think Williams really changed this draft. Another big pass rusher isn't as big of a need as a shutdown CB or huge fast possession WR; especially with those 2 positions commanding top $$ on the FA market...

     

    The part where you said "we played hard ball with Stevie and got a great deal on him" - makes you lose all creditability.....

     

    Stevie during the season said he wanted 7 mill per ...never said he wanted nor needed to be the highest paid WR ...... he end up getting 8 over the first 3 years of a 5 year contract. The Redskins were willing to pay him more, he wanted to be here. Give credit to Stevie for just wanting to be here.

    Buddy unintentionaly rips Sanchez

    IF this was exactly how he said it, it was stupid. You can't criticize a QB who swept you last season. AND you'd better hope like heck that the fishies don't get Matt Flynn, because they swept us last year too.

     

    Buddy, buddy, buddy, this is a dumb thing to say when you've got the 4th best QB in the division, and the most prolific interception-thrower in the NFL. (this season)

     

    Kinda don't think you used the word "prolific" correctly

    My case for Michael Floyd

    He is bigger,faster than Blacksmon...what seperates the blackmon is blackmon is a more developed route runner but we have two of those in stevie and nelson we need a guy that's a threat to break tackles and go all the way...."btw: a deep threat is 20 yards and more" we have not had a big physical wr that can put fear in the oppossing defense with under 4.4 speed that can stretch or as they like to say take the top off of a defense.

    To say Mario was chasing the money...DUH!....most free-agents do that.... But other teams were willing to make him the highest paid Defensive player ever or atleast for this year.....

     

    He choose Buffalo because of the pieces we had...and because Mario Williams is not a Big Spot Light Guy...but he is a guy that wants to be appreciated....

     

    bears were willing to do 43-45 Million up front....Bills did 50....we are talking 5-7 million dollar difference....

     

    Im exicted...wish the draft was today and the season started next sunday

    You owe me a new laptop.

     

    LOL

     

    Stevie Needs to give them some swag lessons...

     

    I'm still trying configure out that outfit that Buddy was wearing - he looked like a beer vendor, or someone who was at the stadium changing out the CO2 canisters for the soda machine and happened to wander into a PC. I half expected him to whip a bag of peanuts at each reporter who asked a question. "You Got One!"

     

    Right!...lol...
