I don't think you can go wrong with Dareus or Fairley. Both are well deserving of top 10 picks, maybe even top 5.

HAHA I agree, I wouldn't want either of them.

That's a bold statement, but I love it. I too believe Quinn is a stud.

Robert Quinn is what you define as an athletic freak my friend. His job is to get after the QB, which is something I do not think you can possibly loose with a year off of football. He seemed to erase all the questions people had about him during the combine and his pro day. His numbers were simply scary at his pro day, and he most definitely justified himself as a top 10 pick. I'd even go as far as top 7, if the Bills do not take him obviously. I like Von Miller's production in college, I really do. However, just based on one year of football and from a pure athleticism standpoint I would be more than willing to use our #3 pick on Quinn over Miller (just ask Mike Mayock, who is easily one of the most respectable NFL analysts out there). There is absolutely no doubt Mallet has the best arm in this draft. Not only does he have a cannon, but he also displays pinpoint accuracy. There are questions about his decision-making, which I believe will only improve with more experience, and under the teaching of an offensive mastermind (CHAN GAILEY). I do not want people to think I am a Mallet homer, but I can comfortably go out on a limb right now and say that I believe he will be the best QB to come out of this draft. Take it or leave it... I will also say that I am a firm 'BILL'IEVER that Cam Newton will turn out to be a stud. Could not be more happy with the DL, or any of the other players you named to be honest. I know Phil Taylor has a first round grade, but it has been dropping as of late. I love Austin, Heyward, and Clayborn. I think you are absolutely correct on your assessment that the Bills may use their second pick on the offensive live as well. However, Pouncey is projected as a guard, and the rest of the players you named seem to be developmental prospects in the eyes of many. As for the linebackers... I'm simply not crazy on any of them besides Bruce Carter from UNC for this years draft. Then again, this is all based off my opinion vs. yours but I do think you raise some valuable points. I LOVE DALTON AND COULD NOT AGREE WITH YOU MORE! This man deserves more hype then he has been getting. He is a pure winner and leader. Ryan Mallet does not have close to the hype that Leaf had when he was coming out. He is also a very different prospect than Leaf. The questions surrounding Leaf and Mallet are not even close to being similar. Would be nice if you could clarify how Mallet could possibly be this years Leaf. Thanks. I just posted like 6 times in 10 minutes! I'll check back at this thread later... I love the discussion! I'm sorry to comment yet again. But this post didn't sit well with me at all. Do you really want to get in an argument over QB's with "100lb weights strapped to their legs" and their success rate? That's an uneducated post, and should not deter any team from drafting a QB. That is all.

I tend to believe the Bills are inclined to used their 2nd round draft choice on a QB (hopefully Mallet). By no means do I claim to be a draft guru, but if you look at tape of previous QBs at the collegiate level there is absolutely no reason to believe this guy will not succeed in the NFL. However, I do realize that he has personality issues, and their are some concerns over drug use that must be examined before even considering him as our pick. I truly believe that the first round pick will be either Von Miller, or Robert Quinn...yes I said it. With our second round choice there are so many directions we can go in. Phil Taylor, who many people were salivating over during senior bowl week, has seen his stock drop immensely because of knee issues. This guy is a stud and would be worth taking a look at. Imagine grabbing Robert Quinn/ Phil Taylor in first two rounds? You cannot tell me that our defensive side would not be greatly improved, especially penetration wise (which is undeniably our biggest issue). Ultimately, there are many other notable options at our number 2 pick. Please share your opinion on what direction the Bills will go in the second round, but I am also curious to see who you believe our first rounder will be on as well.

If Robert Quinn was not suspended he would have been #1 overall pick in this years draft. Especially in a year when there is no surefire #1 pick.

Throughout the whole draft process thus far, it is evidently clear that Nix and Gailey are on the same page regarding what they plan to do in this draft. All we can do as fans is hope that they use their expertise to make the correct decisions with our draft picks.
