Geno may be the starting QB on opening day for the NY Jets. That would definitely put pressure on Geno to perform with very little in the cupboard and a lame duck head coach. Geno will be under the big lights of NY and the expectations will be a lot higher. EJ has a 3-year window to get his talent translated in the NFL. EJ will be playing for one of the low-key media market and the worst attacks will come from Jerry Sullivan.

To be fair to FearTheLosing, all he is saying is that the Bills have the Penchant for doing the opposite of the strength of the draft. Last year in a QB rich draft, they did not draft a QB and this year in a OL rich draft, they have completely ignored the line. When many of the teams draft to the strength of the draft, why would the Bills try to do the opposite. Again these are not my views: I do like the EJ drafting and I am mystified that they ignored the OL in spite of losing a starter.

they lost two linemen (one a starter) and did not replace them with equal or better players. I was just surprised...That is all.

I just hope that OL as it currently is, will be able to provide the time for the QB to throw to all these WRs.

I am excited to see what Pettine can do. However, I don't want to drink this kool aid so fast. Pettine while was the DC did not even call the plays...That was left to Rex Ryan. There is enough talent on this team, but the coaching staff has not been able to bring them together...I am still concerned about that front four that has been so leaky against the run. I hope that is the foremost issue in Pettine's mind. This team will go as far as the run-stopping goes.

I was disappointed too. We had a hole at LG and also need a backup Center and we did not even attempt to fill those positions.

Josh Reed Clone?

Marv Levy's first draft pick was...Marshwan Lynch...A guy with a checkered past!..

Still yet to see a OT or DE on this years draft class!

Finally the run on the QBs....leaving Bray and Scott as the remaining QBs

This *developmental* stuff is way overrated. If EJ plays well this summer in training camp, he simply wins the starting gig. In today's NFL, the team will put a rookie QB in, if he is capable of winning games. EJ comes with a 28-6 collegiate record. I don't really understand the *developmental* aspect. If you like a player and don't want to lose him, you simply pick him at the spot given to you. The Bills risked quite a few times in the last decade and have paid the penalty for that. A resounding +1

That would be a *great day* in the life of Bill!

Nix and the Scouts run the draft. I am sure Marronne gets his input, but would not be pushing for a specific player. That would be more of Belichek style, not Doug's (Plus Belichek is the defacto GM).

Why is it all on CJ Spiller. First, Marronne has to fix that leaky defense before talking about playoffs or super bowl. If this team can get to a middle-of-the-pack defense, then we have a good shot.

Why not, Jackson has been on this roster for almost 8 months and is yet to don the Uniform.

You don't pay 15M to be your 4th WR. And they wouldn't/couldn't adjust!!!!

Kolb would have to beat out Manuel and Jackson for the starting gig. Doug said so much so: All his players will be fighting for a starting gig...what a refreshing change in attitude as compare to the previous staff, which was hell bent on not giving an opportunity to the backups. I believe most of the agents (at least for the 1st rounders) are negotiating a guaranteed deals, meaning all the 4 or 5 years of salaries are guaranteed for the player irrespective if they are or not there on the team.

My only point was we are giving Hoodie 4 chances to pick a good player rather than just one pick....

But,...But....the Pats got 4 picks in the draft for their 31st pick!!!! People always will find fault no matter what.

Another good poll will be: Will the Bills draft another QB in the lower rounds now that they have an additional 7th Rounder.

Twitter Quote from Ian Rapoport on NFL.com Ian Rapoport @RapSheet Yeah.... RT @greggrosenthal Bills win the best smokescreen award. Confused everyone. about 6 hours ago

We will know today if the Jags, Raiders, Eagles, Cardinals and Jets pick a QB at the top of the Rd 2 or pass on all of them (Smith, Barkley, Naasib, Wilson)

I hope Brad Smith is cut loose.

Awesome. You should be working in the PR Department of one of the NFL agents or the teams......That is pretty smooth talking.....and will make the rounds around the networks!!! Why didn't Goddell protect Smith the same way he did with Brady Quinn a few years ago by removing him from the Cameras?

The Eagles or Jaguars would have taken him at the top of the 2nd round. Who knows. I am glad the Bills got the first crack at the line of QBs and picked the one that was at the top of their draft board.
