First of we can't compare Davis to any other rookie TE, because Davis will have to be our first option, and not just another option. Davis may be the new evolution of TEs, And I have seen the tape of the combines, I think I still have it Tivo'd and I recalled him catching everything with his hands.
also i feel your pains about blocking, however, a threat at TE trumps blocking, in these terms. What killed us the most last year was when teams would send 2 LBs or DBs overloading our line. Too many of our routes were long routes, and then they would jump our short routes, who ran our short routes, Campbell, euhus and other non threatening TEs.
I would hope that teams would blitz, because if they blitz from Davis' side, he is such a good athlete you could hit him on a short route, and he could take it 10, 15, 100 yards. if they blitz the other side, it would be smarter, however who can cover Davis, do they move up a Safety, allowing Evans one on one on the outside. a LBer that doesn't have the foot speed. he creates offense.
Bottom line, I like Winston Justice, and if we trade down and still get him that is great, however we need offensive threats, and like I said Davis could be a once in a lifetime TE. We are not even close to set at TE. the notion that Fairchild doesn't favor TEs is more the result of having Holt, Bruce, Jackson, Faulk, and Curtis, and not needing a threat at TE. we have Evans, Mcgahee.....

What I would do...
Sign Grady Jackson and Brad Hopkins to 1 year deal, that way we don't have to carry any of there cap hit into 2007, however I would over pay for their services. We have a lot of cap room. Like almost 6 million more after yesterday's event. we have the money, we need the talent. Both are nearing the end of their careers, but this would take care of two positions that are in some need. After all how can you tell Losman's abilities if he is running for his life, this gives us more time to spend with the younger players
then we draft as such, if we talk up the idea of taking Cutler/Young, or the possibility of trading down to the Vikings, we could lure the cards to move up 2 spots to get a fran QB (NFL network seems to think they are) at 10 we still could have a shot at Justice, Huff, Bunkley, or hopefully Davis-who would be the go to WR/TE, while at the same time picking up a 3rd or 4th. Then in the 2nd round get a Safety-Whitner/bing, 3rd another WR- Avent/Stovall, and address lines after that.

the more I watch Elvis the better i feel about him, he isn't big enough, yet he can do it. He could be an outstanding LE on passing Downs, and maybe a good LOLB.
-
in the sooner/duck game, which I have still on my tivo, I noticed that when they tried to run up the middle (sooners) they were stopped, however they were able to run outside and away from Ngata, but that is peterson's game. On passing down Ngata was doubled and he just worked to get into the QB's line of site-like he should
-
don't forget we still need to address Safety, if bing makes it out of the 1st, or Simpson, I could live with them, however good value in Bullock, Smith, maybe Blue in the 3rd.
-
It is hard to find a LT that can start right away, that said I don't think D'Brick is one of them, he can't handle inside moves well (yet) and he has not faced a 3-4 team, other than his own, D'brick will be destroyed his rookie year, my only hope is that the single engine planes get him, so that Schobel can pad his stats. I'd rather trade down and get Justice, and pick up more picks, I think Peters can and will have a good career at LT.

I doubt you are a Pirate, and your knowledge of the Bills, tend to make me question if you are a gal

Congrats.
But does it have florida's growing crime rate
-
my issue with Bunkley is, he might fit into the cover two, but Ngata fits into all defenses. and lets face facts here, is Juoron and his cover two going to be here for Bunkley's entire career, assuming he stays in Buffalo?
Ngata is a safer pick, and when Jouron is fired one day, and a new coach moves in and wants to play another defense we won't have to figure out what to do with Bunkley.
-
I don't see us staying at 8...either we move up to get Ferguson (not likely) or we take a package from Denver of the 15 and 29 for 8 and one of the third rounders..Denver wants a QB and doesn't have the cap room to pay for all their picks.
5 picks in the top 80 of the draft would be very, very nice...a couple of DT's for the rotation; an interior OL and a Tackle and a pass rushing end..all of whom could contribute in year one and be serviceable by year two..that is a great base from which to launch..
you already know about the picks, but there is no way we could swing that deal, I would crap my pants if we could get those trades. the numbers don't add up. If we moved down to 15, the Broncos would have to give us a 2nd rounder, so forget about it.
-
Henry's college nickname was, cheese. Not sure why, but a UT a former UT student told me that.
and you forgot Mike #^%$ Williams.
-
I like the pick, because, it is going to be the first pick of the 2nd day, teams will want that pick, and we get to re-scout those who were not drafted on day one.
Always look on the bright side of life,
-
thank you, that made me feel better. "the jets know something..." just wonderful
-
Good luck to Eric, and he thought he had it bad in Buffalo, there is a reason they are picking first.
-
you're cuban and you have to ask us,
WWTD?
Everyone look at the bad guy.

that doesn't seem fair, I have a wash board stomach, but it is due to the fact my job is very physical, and I watch what I eat beacuse of family history. And it depends what bathroom we are talking about, I challenge anyone to take a dump in a 7/11 bathroom off of any highly traveled road. My Cats name is Gator, after Burt Reynolds, is that gay? he attacks everything, including my dog. and what about splenda? I have so many question now, i better tell my wife
-
I have a dog, a springer, a bird dog, I also have birds, (wife's birds) Riley is a sweet dog, that is afraid of my 20 pound beast of a cat, and never barks, however I would not allow the bird out of their cages with Riley out. Reason, because Riley's parents' parents' et cetera made this dog think catching birds is a good thing. I am not saying there are not some wonderful Pit bulls out there. However, don't be surprised,
when that Pit attacks, it's programed in his brain, and he can fight the urge all he wants, but he will snap, and if he doesn't it's lucky you didn't come across what made him snap.
Also Pit bulls are typically owned by the lowest creatures (sorry Alaska Darin, Typically I don't think you) and years of Rednecks, and Gangsta teaching to kill have made the bred worse. Like guns i don't think they should be in everyones hands.

hold on one second, here is the question, would you rather get nothing and have moulds released or holdout, or would you rather get something, and send him to a place that might have a weaker offense than our's, in Houston.
-Do not send him to NE, I would rather have the Houston 4th over a NE 3rd.
Also i value the houston 4th over a late 3rd anyways, you get the first pick on the 2nd day, over the past few draft there is always someone projected to go 1st and 2nd that are availible in the 4th, not to mention you have all night to rescout, and pick the very best player for your situation. Not to mention players pick on the 2nd day play with a chip on their shoulders.
Not to also mention, the chance to get additional pick from that pick, like I said there could be a player the 10th team drafting that day wants, and is afraid to wait.
the 3rd round moves so fast before you get to look at what is left it's too late, and you have to hand in your card. Get the 4th send him to Houston, where he'll be the 4th option, behind, Bush, Johnson and getting sacked.
-
actually it is who I want to lose, not who I expect, the 49ers will have the first pick in the 2007 draft.
-
the catch, has to be outside of the AFC east.
My Pick, without question, the Dallas Cowboys, now more than anytime before. the addition of TO just makes me hate them more.
-
Jeff Posey is funny, telling Marv that his name is Kellen, you got him this time Jeff, but just wait.

trade down to the rams, if Ngata, Davis, Bunkley and Young are still availible.
Best case
8.Rams-Davis
9-Lions-Justice
10-cards-Young
11-Bills Ngata or bunkley
worse case
8-Rams-Davis
9-Ngata-not likely, they have two solid interior linemen
10-Bunkley-may happen, but may not with young still there
11-Bills draft either Justice, or trade down further to the vikings. I could still see a reason to draft Justice,
the Idea of getting additional picks and a player I like in the best case situation would be a homerun.
any further with the first trade down and there is no shot at getting Ngata or even Bunkley, I could see the Browns draft Bunkley for DE.
If the trade doesn't happen, draft Davis, like the chargers and wait, again worse case we keep a potetial outstanding weapon. best case is the rams decide before there pick that they can't live without Davis, assuming that they are still thinking Davis.

On NFL radio today, I heard an Idiot Pats fan (I know redundant) call in asking what they would have to trade to get Moulds, they all agreed a 2nd rounder. I would gladly take a 2nd rounder from the Pats. Wouldn't happen though.
that being said would walker get the same attention, no. Moulds is a proven WR over the last 7 years, while he has had ups and downs, at least he's had more than one up. Too many WR have one good year, and bank off of that (see David Boston, Peerless Price, and even Charles Johnson) if he had two good years, the trade value would be higher, the fact is Moulds and Walker straight up should be the deal, only because moulds' contract is so large compared to walker. to compensate $$ the Packs don't have to give us an additional pick
-
I think the trade has to be done, it is in the best interest of both teams, hopwever will moulds go to Green Bay? I mean they are picking 5th overall, and Brett still has not decided to come back, though I think this would increase the odds. He wants to win, that is what I keep hearing form the moulds camp, yet green bay isn't going to win much more than us, and if he stays there he has to have Aaron Rogers as his QB in a year.
I am sure there is something in Moulds' contract that can get him out of such a trade.
I agree with John from hemet, Every doctor in Buffalo will look at Walker, to make sure. A concern I have is this. Drew Rosenhaus(can't spell his name) is like a special interest group in himself, if he has too much power over a team he could ruin them.
I could see giving up a 3rd but not the 4th next year. and again we get additional cap room, which we could use during training camp to sign him long term.
and in terms of Walkers talent, not concerned, he doesn't lack confidence, and he did have round one talent, unlike the past WR favre had.
