  1. If the Bills trade up (which I don't think they will) I strongly think it will be Cleveland at #4 or Atlanta at #6 or St. Louis at #6 (if St. Louis trades the #2 to Atlanta). It will cost way too many picks to move from #9 to #1.
  2. I would like Jace Amaro in the 2nd and Kareem Martin in the 3rd. Not sold on Lewan, but, who knows, maybe that would be a great pick. I think ideally (this just crossed my mind) I would take Evans in the 1st, Amaro in the 2nd. Martin in the 3rd. RT you ask? Find a way to to trade a 2nd or 3rd round pick this year with next years 2nd or 3rd round pick and take the RT with it.
  3. Nope, will be watching it. Sorry you can't. Congrats on your daughter though.
  4. Ya, we should have thrown the 2nd game of the season.
  5. Ha! Too long for me to read as well. I was sifting down for some cliff notes too! LMFAO!
  6. That is an interesting thought process. I can't wait to watch this draft pan out!! 7 days to go!
  7. So, they will probably have a drafted QB, Hoyer and Vince Young and Tyler Thigpen will most likely fight for the 3rd string QB?
  8. I like your thought process and would be fine trading up to secure Watkins. I don't want to give up next year's first pick though.
  9. Bingo! Not enough reps to go around.
  10. Do you think he would sneak his own alcohol into a bar? Hit someone with his car and take off?
  11. I like EJ Manuel as our starter. I like Thad Lewis as a back up. I would be fine if Thad was pushed to 3rd string. I would be fine with acquiring Glennon for the right price. That price being a 6th or 7th rounder. We don't have a 6th this year. So, I would either trade a 7th round pick this year or a 6th round pick next year. We can get a starting player in the 5th round or higher. Starting OGs in the 5th round is very plausible. Also, if we acquired an upgrade at 2nd string QB we could free up roster spots on the main roster and the practice squad with our 4th and 5th QBs able to be cut. We could cut Tuel and Dixon.
  12. Something to think about trading up to get Sammy Watkins in the #4 spot. Firstly, I am not sure if it is the best play. But, I thought about doing some quick research about the first WR taken in the draft over the last 10 drafts. Here they are... 2013 - at #8 Tavon Austin 2012 - at #5 Justin Blackmon 2011- at #4 AJ Green 2011 - at #6 Julio Jones (honorable mention) 2010 - at #22 Demaryius Thomas 2009 - Darius Heyward-Bey 2008 - N/A none in 1st round 2007 - at #2 Calvin Johnson 2006 - at #25 Santonio Holmes 2005 - at #3 Braylon Edwards 2004 - at #3 Larry Fitzgerald There are many ways to slice and dice it. But, I think it proves mostly that the first WR off the board has a high percentage of panning out to be a stud when they are taken early in the draft. Look at it these two ways to increase the odds. 1. If you take the top WR and he is in the top 4 overall (AJ Green, Calvin Johnson, Braylon Edwards, Larry Fitzgerald)...you have a 75% chance (3 of 4) of drafting a stud 10 year WR. 2. If you take the 1st or 2nd WR off the board in the top 6 (AJ Green, Calvin Johnson, Braylon Edwards, Larry Fitzgerald, Justin Blackmon, Julio Jones)...you have a 67% chance (4 of 6) of drafting a stud 10 year WR. Taking a WR with more chance may or may not pan out. I think Stevie is a throw in if replaced (and I am not a fan of him). So, you are giving up a 2nd round pick in a DEEP draft to roll the dice on the best WR. For those who say he is missing the height of the others, his vertical makes up for it. Just food for thought. It may not be my first choice either, but, if it happens, I will wait and see and NOT be dissappointed. We will need to strike great on our 3rd rounder for sure. If we could do next years 2nd instead of this years 2nd that would be great. If we could get a later pick in the draft back in a deep draft that would help us try to hit on someone else since we are already missing our 6th rounder, great. Having Watkins, Woods, Goodwin and Williams is legit for next year AND the future! Thoughts?
  13. Fins are the home opener.
  14. The thought that we led the League in rushing is skewed. We were in the top in total yards. We rushed the ball over 50 times more than the second team in rushing attempts. That is another FULL game of rushing the ball! With that said, I would be fine taking Matthews. I don't want Lewan. But, do prefer Evans if he is there.
  15. I like these 3. My thoughts on all three are.... James - Most upside AND least chance of being a bust (I think that coincides with what Cordy Glenn was, and they are both huge!) Kouanjdio - Good to very good upside. Less safe than James, but, should be a late first round talent going in the 2nd round that could be very steady at RT Moses - I think the least upside of the 3, but, still has quite a bit.
  16. James is a beast! Would love him in the 2nd!
  17. Just woke up and was reading this during breakfast. GREAT way to start my day! LMFAO!
  18. 9 days and we will find out! Go Bills!
  19. I don't want Maziel and never wanted Tebow, ever. But, this did make me laugh out loud. Well played.
