  1. Not sure where it went...but here is an actual link for the mock.

     

    http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap2000000341602/article/mock-draft-50-jadeveon-clowney-aj-mccarron-to-texans

     

    9. Buffalo Bills: Anthony Barr, OLB, UCLA

    The Bills could elect to take a talented tight end to help E.J. Manuel, but the defense could use a versatile SAM linebacker/pass rusher to complement Mario Williams and Jerry Hughes off the edges.

     

    41. Buffalo Bills: Austin Seferian-Jenkins, TE, Washington

    To help E.J. Manuel become more efficient in the pocket, the Bills could add a big-bodied tight end with Rob Gronkowski-like skills to the line up.

     

     

    *If the Patriots end up with Rashede Hageman, I will be pretty pissed...he's going to be a beast.

    OT JAKE MATTHEWS

    WR KELVIN BENJAMIN

    FLORIDA STATE

    R3

     

    TE AUSTIN SEFERIAN-JENKINS

    WASHINGTON

     

    Yeah, I could live with this.

    If you can get me my favorite WR AND TE, outside the 1st round...do whatever the hell you want in the 1st round.

     

    This would potentially be the best first 3 rounds of a draft we have had in a very long time, if ever.

     

    (I'd poop my knickers and do back-flips!)

    DE AARON LYNCH

    SOUTH FLORIDA

    :lol:

    3 DE's, 1 DT, 1 RB and 1 OT? Doug Whaley should be fired if this is what he does.

  3. Whether the OP was correct or not, journalism in the media today is, without question, a joke.

     

    ESPN, NFL.com, WGR, Mike Florio, etc...so many of them are horrible at writing, especially spelling and grammar. It is kind of hard to imagine they do not edit their work, right? It's nothing to be pissed about, but it is really frustrating to know people get paid for that garbage.

     

    It is certainly one job where educated sports fans should be able to land a gig without a college education, but you can't.

  4. I also want to add...

     

    For those of you pounding the table for a RT in the top-10 this year...DO NOT BE MAD at Cordy Glenn when he realizes he was screwed and decides he does not want to renew his contract as a RT with the Bills, instead deciding to go to free agency as soon as he can, as a LT.

     

    If he doesn't request a trade before then...most likely as soon as the Bills draft Matthews or Lewan.

  5. I'd take Matthews all day and most of tomorrow. Nothing against Ebron, I suspect he'll have a nice career, but if we're going TE I'd much rather snag an OT in the first and if ASJ is available in the second we've killed 3 birds with 2 stones. ASJ isn't as athletic as Ebron, but he's still got the athletecism to stretch the seam, but he blocks like a tackle. Seeing as how we're going with a run first philosophy, adding 2 major upgrades to the run blocking on the right side of the line AND adding a passing threat in the first two picks would be a win, win, win in my eyes.

    OK, I should have mentioned earlier...THIS IS THE ONLY WAY I AGREE TO IT. But, you have to guarantee me that Austin Seferian-Jenkins is there in round #2, and promise me he is the Bills pick. If they did that, then by all means...take whomever you want in round #1, within reason.

     

    (Although I'd still rather get a WR or LB in the first round.)

     

     

    Let me clarify something...Austin Seferian Jenkins is someone I have wanted for 2 years now, and I THINK I would rather have him over Eric Ebron. So, with that said...I was not defending Ebron earlier as MY pick, just that I would rather have a TE like him over a RT in the top-10. Hope that clears it up!

  6. If the Bills trade up to 3 to draft Jake Mathews I will never watch another Bills game as long as I live.

     

    I am with you. WTF are people thinking? We have a left tackle already. Do they think a kid that can be a pro bowl LEFT tackle and make LEFT Tackle money is going to say 'golly gee...Ill take it in the butt for 5 years then get franchised to play right tackle at right tackle pay'? Sure they do because they are stuck in 'Madden' land. This kid will fail to report and then sit out a year and be a top 3 pick next year to a team not stupid enough to try and draft a LEFT tackle to play RIGHT tackle.

     

    Yup, yup...and I feel the same about Manziel...a RT in the top-10 or Manziel, and I am about at my breaking point with this team.

     

    At this point, I would be hoping for a new owner who will completely clean house and get credible candidates in football positions.

     

     

    They have until the end of May to prove me wrong and keep their jobs (in my opinion), when the team is sold. (Not saying the team will be sold by the end of May, but I'm saying they better do something exciting with this draft...they are fighting for their jobs.)

  7. NFL Network by a long shot. They actually have people who know football and are not just there for show. Mike Mayock and Charles Davis actually know what they are talking about, compared to Mel Kiper and Todd McShay.

     

    I used to have ESPN on 24/7, I watched EVERY show on that channel and followed it religiously...I never watch it anymore, ever.

     

    Nor do I read any articles put out by ESPN.com and their pathetic, amateur writers. It's terrible...especially that Rodak guy.

  8. I like Barden's potential as not only a WR, but also a TE/H-Back...much rather keep him over Chris Hogan. Same with Elliott, who it's obvious they like him...as they kept him on IR all year, stashed away, and didn't buy him out/release him.

     

    I just don't see where keeping a WR because of his special teams abilities, rather than his WR abilities, is a good idea.

     

    Just because Easley or Hogan are better than Elliott or Barden on ST's, doesn't mean that is who they should keep...especially if the latter two are better WR's. You can coach someone to run down the field and tackle a kick returner...you cannot coach WR intangibles.

     

    As for the draft...I don't see Watkins, Evans or Benjamin being a Buffalo Bills draftee...although I want Evans or Benjamin. It's more likely they go for a Latimer, Coleman, or another bigger WR in the 3rd or 4th rounds. (Which I am ok with, IF they get the TE early.)

  9. I'd rather add another DE. Mario is our only true , every down 43 DE. Hughes is our pass rusher but won't do much for run game.

     

    I think they have their sights set on one somewhere in this draft. Someone that is stout against the run that can come in on 1st & 2nd down

    I would not be surprised if Scott Crichton is one of our draft picks in the 3rd-4th rounds.

     

    He seems like a blue-collar, Marrone/Schwartz type of guy...reminds me of Aaron Schobel to be honest, he's "country strong."

     

    Watch the play at .55 seconds, not sure this kid is even around in the 3rd or 4th...he's a beast, plays a solid all-around game.

     

     

    * Turn down your volume, I know some will despise the music...although the video has zero to do with music! :-p

  10. Pettine gone has changed the needs.

    And its showing.

    Mike woulda kept Carrington i think

    Brown might have stayed as depth.

    I still dont have feel for what Jim is going to bring to the defense.Or what he is going to field . Maybe thats a good thing. No film on Jims defense since Titans. Gotta seperate HC from DC stylings .

    This could be an advantage ?

    I feel like his Detroit defense had really small DE's and LB's...which I do not like.

     

    He seems like the kind of coach who would love a Keith Ellison. He played Ronnell Lewis at DE and he is 6-2, 240 lbs. A perfect example of this would have been him drafting Doug Hogue (6-2, 235) in the 5th round of the 2011 draft.

     

    His LB's back in 2012 were Stephen Tulloch (5-11, 230), Deandre Levy (6-2, 230), Justin Durant (6-3, 230), Ashlee Palmer (6-1, 223) and Travis Lewis (6-1, 246)...some DE's were Willie Young (6-5, 251), Lawrence Jackson (6-5, 261), and Cliff Avril (6-3, 252).

     

    So, looking at that...I think two things...

     

    1.) Are these really the size of players that will hold up in our division and the kind of game we want to play?

     

    2.) If he got any success out of those guys...why can't a Manny Lawson be a DE in his scheme? He has the size of Young, Avril, etc.

     

    Just a couple things that I got thinking about when looking at the players he drafted and used in his scheme...I don't like the fit.

  11. My notes from lots of sources on West:

    • Doesn’t seek out unnecessary contact but can lower the shoulder for extra yardage.
    • Wasn’t retained too often in pass protection; probably a two-down back in the pros.

    I would certainly have to disagree with these 2 from what I saw in that video.

     

    He seems like he has no issue being a violent runner, trucking over defenders. (1:45-1:52 is a great example.)

     

    And I already pointed out picking up a blitz very well and laying the defender out on his back. (.42-.46 is a good example.)

     

    Obviously one video is a small sample size to make a correct evaluation of the kid...but he already shows he has some of those traits, as well as many others that cannot be coached into a player. As long as he is opening to coaching/correcting mistakes, I see no reason he cannot find success in the NFL.

  12. I love it, I really couldn't care less who it offends. He's a football player not a politician.

    Exactly.

     

    Not the biggest Spikes fan in the world but his twitter is pretty funny. But the guy talks/ tweets way too much.

    Don't listen or follow him.

     

    I am ecstatic we finally have someone on this team who has a set of brass knuckles for balls...attitudes like this spread like wildfire in a locker room. The Buffalo Bills have lacked this type of "swagger" for a very long time...I have no doubts it will show up on the field.

     

    This is how I want my team to be built...with FOOTBALL PLAYERS who swing big d***s and talk big s**t...then back it up on the field! We FINALLY have a Bryan Cox type of player, and I couldn't be more happy about it...CHEERS to becoming relevant again!

     

    (As for the "slavery" comments, I think people are looking at that in the wrong context...look at where he just left, that speaks volumes! Bad ol' Bill and Mr. Kraft seem to treat their players like "slaves," and not human beings and/or employees...is how I took that comment.)

  13. He reminds me of another small-school RB the Bills took a chance on, who was just rewarded with a new contract.

     

    Joique Bell (5-11, 220 lbs., 4.68 forty yard dash)

    http://www.nfl.com/combine/profiles/joique-bell?id=497145

     

    Terrance West (5-9, 225 lbs., 4.54 forty yard dash)

    http://www.nfl.com/combine/profiles/terrance-west?id=2543664

     

    I like him, and would love for the Bills to take a shot at him in the mid-rounds...we could certainly use another young RB.

     

    *Also, he may have had a hard time staying between the tackles because of the skill (or lack thereof) of his blockers. Given better holes and timing in the NFL, may allow him to be a better north-south runner than he was in college. Just a thought.

     

    *One more thought after actually watching that highlight reel...watch him pick up that blitz/block at .45 seconds! WOW, PANCAKE!

  14. Something something poor work ethic something something our D had lots of sacks last year something something fake injuries and speeding tickets.

     

    The next 20 replies, summed up.

    Poor work ethic? Bruce Smith.

     

    Lots of sacks? Jerry Hughes in the last year of his contract. Mario is due $20 mill next year.

     

    Fake injuries? Mario Williams and Jairus Byrd.

     

    Speeding tickets? You have got to be kidding me, right? That's the biggest joke I have ever heard...just another person who doesn't want football players on his favorite team, he wants the guys from his church's choir. Kiko had worse than speeding tickets, he turned out fine. Mario did too, if I recall correctly.

  15.  

    Dude...Do you love her?!?!???

     

    For the next 40 days, there is nothing else to do, but imagine and anticipate. I’ve been following the trade to #1 rumor (Clowney makes most sense, Manziel makes no sense), but I think Whaley lets the draft come to him at 9. Depending on who is there at 9, and, say, the 49ers want to give us half of their 6 Top 100 picks for a downfield receiver to pair with Crabtree, I think Bills would score major players. Bills have done it before with Cordy and Kiko. I’ve simulated the trade with the 49ers, but I’m also looking at Rams and Browns.

     

    BILLS trade their 9 to SF for their RD1#30, RD2#56, RD3#77, RD5#170

    SF takes Cooks, Evans or Lee

    30-Zack Martin OG Notre Dame

    41-Taylor Lewan OT Michigan

    56-Davante Adams WRF Fresno State

    73-A Seferian-Jenkins TE Washington

    77-Chris Borland ILB Wisconsin

    109-Terrence Brooks FS Florida State

    149-Ty Zimmerman SS Kansas State

    170-Michael Schofield OT Michigan

    185-Rashaad Reynolds CB Oregon State

    224-Connor Shaw QB South Carolina

     

    BILLS drop to #13 and pick up RAMS RD2#44

    STL wants Watkins and Pryor at 2 and 9

    1 13 Buffalo Mike Evans WRF Texas A&M

    2 41 Buffalo Taylor Lewan OT Michigan

    2 44 Buffalo Lamarcus Joyner FS Florida State

    3 73 Buffalo Troy Niklas TE Notre Dame

    4 109 Buffalo Anthony Steen OG Alabama

    5 149 Buffalo Max Bullough ILB Michigan State

    6 185 Buffalo Brock Vereen SS Minnesota

    7 224 Buffalo Connor Shaw QB South Carolina

     

    BILLS trade their 9 to CLE for their RD1#26, RD2#35

    1 26 Buffalo Zack Martin OT Notre Dame

    2 35 Buffalo Shayne Skov ILB Stanford

    3 73 Buffalo A Seferian-Jenkins TE Washington

    4 109 Buffalo Lache Seastrunk RBF Baylor

    5 149 Buffalo Cody Latimer WRF Indiana

    6 185 Buffalo Brock Vereen SS Minnesota

    7 224 Buffalo Connor Shaw QB South Carolina

    If we drop all the way down to #30 and select an OG, I would puke. lol.

     

    I really doubt ASJ is available in the 3rd, or that Latimer is available in the 5th...didn't he just have an amazing pro-day?

  16. I can't see Oakland taking Mike Evans at #9...they have way too many other needs to take a WR that early, especially with how deep this WR class is.

     

    I can see them going after a Donte Moncrief or Cody Latimer later on...or, I could see them taking Ebron actually.

     

    Either way, I see no reason for the Bills to trade UP this year...if anything, trade down...this draft class is stocked with talent.

  17. Desean Jackson does NOT fit in Buffalo...can we please drop that idea, already? I'd rather develop Woods and Goodwin, than sign Jackson.

     

    As for Britt, his most logical landing spot is St. Louis with the head coach who drafted him...their GM says it's 50/50 they sign Kenny Britt.

     

     

    If I have to pick one, I'd pick Britt...but if I have to sign a WR with knee issues, I might just take a look at Danario Alexander...bigger/faster/cheaper than Britt.

     

    (I also don't think D-Jax leaves D.C. without a contract...get to play with RG3, in the NFC East against Philly? He will sign in Washington.)

  18. Ramses Barden? lmao. Yeah, and Ronnie Wingo is the next Eric Dickerson. :rolleyes:

     

    We're not one player away from the playoffs.

    With all due respect, I highly disagree. With a top-5 running game and a top-10 defense, we should be in the playoffs.

     

    It all comes down to QB play, if Manuel plays well this year, and the defense matches last year...the Bills will be in the playoffs.

     

    Get him a security blanket, and watch how he develops...I do think the RIGHT player, will propel this team into contention for a wild card spot.

  19. 2 firsts and 2 seconds for Johnny Manziel? Doug Whaley should be fired if he does this.

     

    How about letting EJ Manuel play more than 9-10 games before we label him a "bust."

     

    If he is not what you want/need/think he should be, in a couple years...take your 2 firsts/2 seconds and trade up for Jameis Winston, a QB who was actually able to win something in college, even though he did not have the talent around him that your anointed savoir, Johnny Manziel, had while at Texas A&M. (Including 2 elite OT's)
