I expect the Bills to trade up today if anything. Its unlikely that 8 guys will find roster spots. And I love seeing these DBs go off the board. The Pats still need a lot of help in the secondary. Charles Godfrey was a good one. Glad they didn't get him. -

And picks RB Kevin Smith of Central Florida. Now someone just needs to explain why they felt compelled to trade up ahead of the Rams to make that pick. -

Miami has traded the 64th pick for pick 66 and a 6th rounder to Detriot. As for the Bills, I look for them to take either Cliff Avril or Kellen Davis here, though I wouldn't be surprised by a FS or DT, or even another CB. -
I think you said it right there...IF Ko Simpson recovers. I wouldn't be totally stunned by a pick at FS in the first couple of rounds today. At the very least, its a position that could use some additional competition.
-
I think Cliff Avril would be a really nice addition in R3. I'm not quite as sure about Doucet, especially following immediately on the heels of James Hardy. I expect them to go WR again fairly soon today, but probably in R4 or 5.

The who should the Bills take with the 3rd round pick thread
Brandon replied to Dr. Fong's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Most of the DT class seems to be falling a little bit. Then again, maybe its just perception. I know I keep thinking we're going into R4, not 3. Most of these guys like Moore would still be going about where expected if taken in the top half of R3. My top 5 candidates for pick 72? Kellen Davis, Cliff Avril, Martin Rucker, Pat Sims and Dre Moore. Perhaps not quite my order of preference, but the order which I think they'll consider them. -

Brandon replied to Dr. Fong's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
No, he's still available. As for Brad Cottam, I wouldn't even think about picking him until the 5th. Too many injuries, nowhere near enough production. -
I agree. I like Finley as well, but I think it'll probably be one of those two guys. I think they'll also take a very long look at Cliff Avril if he's available and possibly one of the DTs as well. Pat Sims, Dre Moore, and perhaps Red Bryant. They could even go CB or WR again, though its less likely. In the end, though, I'm saying Kellen Davis.
-
McKelvin. He's several years younger and won't cost the Bills an enormous amount of money to sign.

I was thinking of everybody on the message board
Brandon replied to Tipster19's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
LOL, you definitely weren't the only one. I think I liked Sweed just a bit better, but I can't complain whatsoever with Hardy. I think they got awfully lucky that they were still available, but I'll take it. And while I was a bit indifferent to the McKelvin pick at the time (and still am, a little bit), I agree, looking at how that first round unfolded, I don't think they could've done it differently. -
3rd thru the 5th round will be crucial!!!
Brandon replied to Navy Chief Navy Pride's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
R3 - TE Jermichael Finley, Texas R4 - DT Dre Moore, Maryland R4 - DE Darrell Robertson, Georgia Tech R5 - WR Keenan Burton, Kentucky It looks to me like there are only two really solid TE prospects left at this point, so that's where I'd go in R3. Kellen Davis is the other one and I think it would be a toss-up as to which one the Bills draft. DE is also starting to get very thin, so they may look there as well in R3. Edit: I forgot about Rucker. I think he certainly factors into this as well. Dre Moore probably shouldn't be available at 114, but looking at this draft so far, it appears that the DTs are slipping down a bit and a good one might be stolen at this point in the draft. If a good one is available, it would be to their benefit to pick him. Robertson is an excellent pass rushing specialist who was injured training for the combine and hasn't been able to workout for scouts, but should make a complete recovery. He could be a major steal at this point. Finally, we have another WR. I still can't decide if they'll look for another redzone type, or an all-around player who can push Reed and Parrish for the slot role and potentially replace Evans if necessary. In any event, I do think its likely that they'll take another WR in R4-6, plus possibly one more with a 7th. -

He'd still have to get past New England as well. -

I love seeing these DBs go off the board. The Pats need major help in the defensive backfield and this draft is starting to get awfully thin at CB. -
Just went to the Colts at pick 59.

Cottam is a round 5-6 guy, I think and probably the biggest workout warrior in this draft, IMO. The guy had a total of 21 catches in his time at Tennessee and numerous injuries. He may become a very solid pro, but I think there are still much safer bets available with similar potential. No thanks. -
Does Marv pull the trigger on Hardy?
Brandon replied to bartshan-83's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Much like the stuff surrounding Marshawn Lynch last year, I'll leave it to the Bills to investigate this stuff properly. Although it sounds bad enough, we simply don't know enough of the details about his past to make a good judgement. -

I was just about to post that. He looked more annoyed than anything . -

Brandon replied to ndirish1978's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yep. He really didn't have a great year, averaging less than 10 yards per catch. When he clocked in with a 4.6 40, I think it was just confirmation in some minds that he wasn't very fast. Average size, average speed, injury issues and just so-so production as a senior....it all adds up to a drop through the draft. -

They still have a problem just filling roster spots at WR. Hardy puts them up to four. They probably need to draft at least one more, perhaps two, unless they're happy going into the season with the street FA-types in the 5th/6th spot. Granted, I don't expect it to happen until at least R4.
