ganesh

Why? It is one of the best cities to drive around...Every part of the city is very well connected and there are two major highways PA Turnpike and I-79 going through the city (not downtown). The views from Mt. Washington are spectacular. The museums in the city are the hidden treasures of this lovely city (Carnegie Science Center, Natural History etc). Kennywood is a nice family-friendly theme park right in the heart of the city....

Yes. to the game against the Redskins a few years ago....When Edwards beat them in the 4th Qtr with some magical throws to Evans and Reed.

or a QB lol.

That would be Carson street on the South Side, a 5 minute cab ride or a 10 minute walk across the bridge. Of course there are a lot of cops crawling in that area too! +1

People love to re-write history in hindsight!

And blue chip players for both that position will be gone by #8. They would need to get that Cleveland or Arizona pick.

And don't forget to get a sandwich in Primanti Brothers!!! The walk along the river from the Steeler Stadium to PNC Park is very nice.

And Luck > Fitzpatrick was the difference in the Win (or a Loss for us) last year.

Austin is a 5' 7" midget who will get crushed in the NFL. Patterson is a one year wonder. After being bit by Aaron Maybin 1-year wonder, I will pass. The Bills have plenty of choices on WR later in this draft.

Does yours come with the Bells and Whistles, not to mention Four Lamar Hunt Trophies in the back seat !!!

Only if they can trade down. They still have a hole at OG, TE and WR not to mention LB and CB...Sigh....so many holes and only 6 picks.

2nd and 3rd - WR and LB...Don't care what order. This has to be a Offensive minded draft. We have spent far too much money and picks on the defensive side in the past three seasons. It is time for the coaches on that side to design plays with the current roster.

Disagree...What does consensus mean here with regards to the so called NFL experts or talking heads. If the Bills truly believe they will pick a possible Franchise QB, they are going to get him at #8 if he is available. They are not going to put themselves in a position where they have to trade back into the 1st round to get their guy. They will simply play their board and pick the BPA in Rd 2 and 3 to fill their open holes at G, LB and/or TE. The Bills lost out last year by waiting too long hoping to draft Russel Wilson....They lost out when they couldn't trade up before the Steelers to get Ben Rothelisberger. I just hope they don't do the *waiting* game again The probability of finding a Franchise QB in next years draft is the same as finding a franchise QB in this years draft. There are no guarantees and even if there are QBs like Luck available next year, there is no guaratee that the Bills will have the top three pick to pick those QBs.

+1. And I think Barkley has got it all. The Winds of Buffalo has been so overrated for the past decade...Let us first get a QB who can get us through November and then we can talk about December. If Barkley is available @ 8, the Bills better get him.

Of all the QBs of this class, Barkley is the most accomplished pro-ready QB and is also familiar with the WCO. I have to really think Barkley is that guy

BTW, it was not just Bill Walsh, Even Steve Mariucci was gushing as to how Edwards never lost a game as a HS player and how he played in Stanford. Edwards had some good intangibles, but with the kitty offense run by our coaching staff, there was no chance for him to succeed. Actually he had one of his best games 2 weeks later against the San Diego Chargers!!

You should continue to drink your kool-aid :-)

The guy had 4 fumbles in 10 games in 2012. That is simple not excusable.

+1. Shows the inner and outer strength of this very gifted man. Long live Ralph! Why is our team sucking in mediocrity tied with this owner (and his health)....It is not Ralph's fault that Nix hired Chan Gailey as his HC and misfired on his drafts.

Jimmy Graham and Hernandez catch passes from Brees and Brady...It is not apples to apples comparison.

They said the same for New Orleans...A team that barely had made to a playoff game in over a decade...And with the right coaching staff and the right QB, they were able to pull it off, in the midst of a hurricane attack. Winning a super bowl for the Bills would be like......nothing else in this world.... Kyle was injured..>Dareus was in Mourning....Williams was playing with a bad wrist the 1st half of the seasons....and we had the worst LB crew in the league where each one was free-lancing. If you straighten this out (which falls on the shoulder of the coaching staff), this defense can go places.

+1. As a GM, Nix has responsibility for drafting and signing FAs/ The body of work is only complete when both options must be considered.

Possibly OG too, if the draft falls that way.

Tampa's offer works only if we can then package our 2nd with our 3rd or 4th to move up above Arizona/Jax/Oakland/Jets in the 2nd round to get our QB of choice. Otherwise, I would pick the Minnesota deal, where we would still have the choice of QB in late Rd 1.

Unfortunately, none of these guys have excelled as a top 5 WR in the league. At #8, I want to have a difference maker that is a Top-5 in the league. CBs in the NFL are much more physical than in college and a 5' 7" body cannot take that kind of hits.
