  1. Everyone defending the pick keeps mentioning how much they throw the ball in today's NFL and you need to stop the pass.

     

    My problem with that line of thought? The Bills themselves have no one other than Stevie to throw it to. There was a potentially elite WR sitting there and we passed. I really think IF YOU ARE LOOKING TO WIN THIS YEAR AND NOT CONTINUING THE NEVER-ENDING REBUILD that wide receiver was a much bigger need. We have talent at CB. Sure its aging talent, but its more than at WR. But I'm just whining right? We will get someone from UB in the 7th that will solve all of our WR issues.

     

    I refer you to the "must have" receivers everyone was dying to get in the first round in 08 and how we were doomed when we didn't get them- Limas Swede, Devin Thomas. Oh but everyone was stoked when we got James Hardy in the 2nd!

     

    We do NOT have good consistent talent at CB- McGee plays 3 games a year, Florence gets burned consistently and McKelvin is on his way out the door due to being terrible.

     

    Basic fan knowledge on this site has devolved tremendously the past couple of years. The number of "I don't know him, so I'm mad" posts are asinine.

  2. This pick was telegraphed by Nix for a while now. Yesterday a reporter asked him if he took into consideration that WRs generally don't make an impact as rookies and take a year to develop in the NFL and really come in year 2 and he said "we're looking for an impact player." He said he believes Hairston can start for us. So no Reiff or Floyd. I think it came down to Kuechly, Barron and Gilmore for us

  3. Correct Maddog. He's done doing mocks. He also stated in the past that he didn't spend a ton of time analyzing film and that most of the info he got was from talking directly to personnel from various teams. Which of course, meant his mocks were based on reality and not some Mel Kiper fantasy projection. I'm bummed he's not doing them anymore.

  4. "He ran the 40-yard dash two times with his best attempt clocked at 4.57 seconds.

     

    "They don't expect me to be full speed and I don't expect the same," added Broyles when asked about his 40-yard dash time. "Being competitive, I wish it was in the 4.3 range. That's not the scenario. It just shows that I am working hard. I am getting my lateral movement back as well.""

     

    For a guy his position/size that is pretty slow. How far removed from injury is he?

    5 months

    I guess we'll know what the brass thinks come the 26th. I'm hoping Floyd is gone so I won't be worrying about picking him and we get around to filling a major position of need with a SUPERIOR player. :thumbsup:

    GO IRISH !!! :worthy: ---> :sick:

     

    So you admit you're a troll? Stepping through the muck of your idiotic assertions that a player who is widely considered to be a RT will be a day 1 starter over a player who has a year of NFL experience, you finally admit you're just a simpleton who has an agenda against my school. Not a shock. What I am surprised by is that you can string together enough words to form a complete sentence without resorting to text speak. For the record, I like Kuechly and Gilmore at 10.

  6. Still on the Floyd (prima donna) bandwagon Homer ?? Especially since we don't need a LT but we do need a knucklehead when there's 15-20 receivers just like him in the draft :wallbash:

     

    Show me where I mentioned Floyd in this thread? How am I a bandwagon fan? I've met Floyd, does that put me on a bandwagon? Or would it be the fact that I actually went to the same school as he did? Yes, I can see I'm really late jumping on the Floyd bandwagon. I struggle to find you making a single logical or coherent point on this board.

     

    Here's the strained thread of your logic.

    1- We need an LT

    2- We will draft DeCastro or Reiff. DeCastro is a Guard and Reiff is a RT.

    3- Your point having being excoriated, you proceed to attack other people.
