    Official Draft Thread

    I gotta agree...tell us what makes him a hell of a football player. He was moved around a lot, but a hell of a footballl player should have been able to put up some damn good stats.

     

    Do you actually watch the games or are you one of those keyboard warriors who looks at a stat sheet and spews nonsense on boards like this one? :thumbsup: Whitner's tackle numbers are lower than they could be because he changes the direction of plays, forcing guys to make a cut and lose good running lanes. He has had to play nickel, FS and SS and we consistently move him up to the line to compensate for our weak D-line. Give him one year with a decent cast around him and watch his numbers. I'm sick and tired of hearing he was a reach at 8. He was the player we wanted, he moves around to whatever spot we need him in and he understands the concept of team defense. If he forces an inside run to the outside and someone else makes a tackle, guys like you aren't going to give him credit for doing his job, all you look at is the stat sheet at the end of the game.

    Buffalo has drafted a player of need in every round this year including Byrd in round 2. Lets face it Whitner is just not very good and will never be a difference maker. Brandon is kicking ass and Nic is strictly a linebacker in the NFL

     

     

    That's an absolutely ridiculous comment. Whitner is a hell of a football player and his stats have suffered greatly because we have had to move him around so much to cover all our deficiencies on defense
