  1. Yes, but isn't it tempting to have an insurance policy in case Fitzpatrick flames out this year? We all saw how much it took for the Redskins to get RGIII. I agree about Blackmon, I would keep the pick and draft him. I was talking more about Claiborne or Richardson. It's far fetched that either one would be there, but the draft sometimes has big surprises that sets weird scenarios in motion.
  2. As much as I do like Fitzpatrick, I was thinking that the Bills could hedge their bets and do something like this instead of drafting an OG in DeCastro, or RT in Reiff, or a questionable character in Floyd. The reason I picked the Rams is because they have a ton of picks and if they saw a top five player fall to #10 that they could plausibly be tempted to pull the trigger on a deal like this.
  3. Would it be possible, if say a Claiborne or Richardson fell to pick #10, that the Bills would trade this pick to a team in the top part of the 2nd round this year for that team's 2013 first round pick? For instance, if Claiborne fell to #10 and St. Loius wanted to trade their 2nd round (#33) pick for our #10 and the Bills get the Rams 1st round pick in next years draft. I don't know if this is plausible, but if it were, I'd sign on for it in a second.
  4. I'd avoid guys with character issues if I were the Bills GM. Especially within the first three picks of any given draft. Right now, my first three picks in the 2012 draft would look something like this... 1. David DeCastro OG/Stanford 2. Mohammad Sanu WR/Rutgers 3. Bobby Wagner OLB/Utah St.
  5. I'm not. I know it's not scientific, but I get a really bad vibe from watching interviews with that guy. If the Bills are forced to stay at #10, then I hope they take the BPA without troubled histories in DeCastro, Ingram or Keuchly. I don't think it will be a DB since even if they are good, they're basically unaffordable after their rookie contracts are up.
  6. I think Richardson will either be a Brown or Buccaneer. He could even go #3 in a Bucs trading up to the Vikings pick. If he did get past the Bucs then Dallas would no doubt trade up to get him. The odds of Richardson making it to #10 are very small.
  7. Mike Williams did not like playing football, period. By all accounts, Glenn loves football and loves to hit people, hard. However the more I've been reading lately, it seems like the Bills picking Glenn at #10 will be a longshot. I'm not sold on any player or position at #10 yet, but if I were Fitzpatrick and the Bills were taking a LT prospect, without hesitation I'd take Glenn over either Reiff or Martin.
  8. http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Journalism/2012/03/31/sarah-to-katie-game-on Palin hosting the Today Show? Wow, bizarre pairing....LOL
  9. I'd sue NBC and Brian Williams for inciting a hate crime. Where's the SHOCK and OUTRAGE from the news of a black women delivering a child's birthday cake who was killed by being thrown off a 14 floor balcony in NYC?... http://www.nypost.com/p/news/local/bronx/dies_then_balcony_leaving_here_alive_p5iMu34oFawNKdJwP5lgiN?utm_medium=rss&utm_content=Bronx "“I heard a loud boom and ran to my terrace and saw her laying there,” said Sheryl Thomas, who lives on the third floor of the building. “It was so loud. I thought someone threw a TV out and it landed on a hood of a car.”
  10. "white mans greed runs a world in need" 20 years of Reverend Wright Derrick Bell man-love "police acted stupidly" "typical white person" "my son would look like Trayvon" He wrote a book specifically about his father, mother gets no such long form ovation Ignoring Black Panther's voter intimidation/threats and bounty on "white hispanic" Zimmerman Now I don't know if this all makes him a full fledged "racist", but what if it were uncovered that Bush had such a past in a "race" role reversal?
  11. Glenn has tree limbs for arms and he's as strong as an ox. He's huge. Martin looks like a little boy next to Glenn. I think that Martin will be a bust as a LT. He just isn't big or strong enough. Maybe he'll find success as a finesse guy in a Denver type zone scheme, but not as a prototype NFL LT.
  12. IMO, there are four problems with this draft and where the Bills are selecting that make me think they approach this draft with a loose "BPA" description... Problem #1: The Bills have a lot of money tied up on the defensive front four. Handcuffs Bills BPA philosophy right off the bat since the bulk of BPAs will be DE and DTs at #10. Problem #2: After eliminating "front four" prospects, the players who will most likely be BPA play positions that are clearly not desirable #10 overall draftable positions. Mainly, Kuechly LB and DeCastro OG. Problem #3: There are many players with first round grades that don't have prototype size for the position the Bills would be picking them to play. Mainly, Reiff OT (arm length), Martin OT (bulk) and Wright WR (height) Problem #4: Character concerns. Mainly Floyd WR. The Bills are kind of screwed where they are picking in this draft and I would be shocked if they didn't at least try to trade up or down. I'm at the point where I feel that if Nix doesn't trade up or down, then he'll be selecting a player with the prototype size and athleticism to play the position they're drafting the player to play and call him the "PBA" because of that very reason. I've got three players that fit this description... Cordy Glenn LT, Stephon Gilmore CB and the dark horse Stephen Hill WR.
  13. Cordy Glenn just looks like an NFL LT. He may be a little bit heavy, but he seems to carry it well. If the Bills do go LT, I see Glenn as the guy at #10 and Martin as someone they'd pick in the second round were he to fall. Martin looks too smallish and with a finesse-like game to play LT in the ACE East and Buffalo in particular. I just don't understand why this guy is considered a first round talent after reading up on him. I don't like Martin at all.
  14. Oh really? Does it fall just under "white african american" check box?
  15. I'm ok with Gilmore, especially if he looks good today. With the rise of Gilmore, I think Keuchly may no longer be an option at #!0. BTW, If they don't go WR in the 1st I think they really should bring back TO (on a one year contract) even if they do draft a WR in the 2nd or 3rd. Give Fitz a real weapon and not a real question mark. As I remember, TO and Fitz got along well. The TO talk should heat up if we don't pick any WRs in the first two rounds.
  16. Zimmerman is no longer a hispanic but a newly termed "white" hispanic New Black Panthers put out a 10,000 bounty on Zimmerman Spike Lee tweets Zimmerman's address (wrong address) Obama liken's Trayvon as a son, as if his race matters On Monday, Obama campaign tweeted the sale of "Obama" hooded sweatshirts obviously capitalizing on the death of Trayvon mania Eric Holder has sickenly remained silent The MSM is sick. Obama, Holder, Sharpton, Jackson, Lee are ALL sick. A little history lesson from 2009... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Derrion_Albert "His death occurred after he was brutally beaten by several boys with pieces of a railroad tie." http://www.americanthinker.com/2009/10/black_leaders_ignore_blackonbl.html "Treating poor black people as victims to be "organized" has been an abject failure. They are human beings to be educated, inspired and required to take responsibility for their own lives. The tragedy here is that Derrion was doing just that and it was working, but the malignant pathology of the ghetto spread to him on that unfortunate day and ended his promising life. There is another tragedy. The so called black civil rights leaders have been mute. Had this been a white gang attacking a black gang member, they would have jumped in front of every camera and microphone available to decry racism and injustice in America. If it had been a black criminal with a long rap sheet, killed in a confrontation with a white police officer, there would be protests and perhaps riots against systemic racism in the police department." A few questions I have...What does it say when the outrage only happens if a murder of a black man has the narrowest of relationships to the white race? White hispanic? Are you serious? Do you really think americans are so dumb as to buy that completely made up term to fit your narrative? How many young black men have been killed by other young black men since 2009? These murders happen year after year after and most notably in Obama's backyard of Chicago. If it hasn't changed after four years under the first black american president, what hope is there of it ever changing? Why do Al Shaprton and Jesse Jackson continue to be looked at as the go to "leaders of all black people"? Are these two part of systematically keeping black people down for a reason?
  17. Well he's obviously not a possession receiver. At 29 ypc he's a deep threat who can take it to the house. With Hill, the system and the QB problems are what could have been the reason for the low catch total numbers. Fleener's not a WR, he's a TE.
  18. Hill had 29 yards per catch last season. You want reliable, I want a freak who can take it to the house on any pass play. I think that's what the Bills are looking for too. What's the difference between Poe and Hill other than their positions? Poe didn't do anything in college. It's all projection just like Hill's evaluation. Yet I see many drafts with Poe in the top ten. There's something weird going on with Hill's evaluation and Poe's. Fleener's a TE, the Bills have MUCH bigger need to get a WR opposite Johnson.
  19. I'm of the opinion that Floyd will drop and get picked between picks 24-30 to a team that has established veteran players who he'd have to answer to were Floyd to go on a drunken binge and get arrested. I also think that Stephen Hill will get drafted before him with his highest ceiling being the Bills pick at #10. It's interesting that Dontari Poe shot up the internet draft boards based solely on his workouts, yet Hill garners no such favor. That's very puzzling to me. I truly think that Stephen Hill is very high on a lot of NFL team's boards based on his insane measurables and workout performances. This is a passing league and having a superfast tall threat on the outside is a huge advantage. It's also a huge advantage in the redzone to have a guy that can catch the ball over the DBs heads like Moss, Plaxico and Calvin Johnson. There's a lot of Floyd talk on this board but I see no way the Bills touch him. They're a young team and they want solid players without character concerns that could derail the good thing they have going. In the end, I think baring a trade down (which we all want) it's going to be either Kuechly or Hill at #10.
  20. Google "michael floyd blood" As for your last point, we shall see.
  21. You're going to quibble about .04? C'mon man. As for prepared, how prepared do you have to be to run the fly route? Even if he's half the player of Moss or Calvin Johnson, that would be a great pick at #10.
  22. Says the guy who likes the drunken mess kid. You call Floyd a freak, the only thing freakish is how stupid he is. Floyd will be a big bust because he's someone who's out of control before he gets his first big check. I don't care what he says, He wouldn't be on my board. Stephen Hill is going within the first 20 picks and he WILL be picked before Floyd. Lock it in. As for Hill not proving anything 29.3 yards per catch blows away Floyd's 11.5. That kind of deep threat translates VERY well to the NFL game.
  23. It really is. We either have Hairston or Bell this year as our starting LT. We have ????? as or starting #2 WR. The NFL is a passing league and if you don't have one of the major pieces in place to make it work you are in a sense, doomed. Running game is less effective, passing game is less effective. They can't do Fitzpatrick like that. They have to get someone opposite SJ and the plan can't be counting on Marcus Easley. I'm starting to believe that Stephen Hill will our pick. Guys with his size and speed are gold in this league. Will it be seen as a reach/risk pick? Yes, but Buddy has serious cache now. If they don't draft a 1st rd WR then they almost have to sign TO to a one year contract.
  24. I've been listening to WFAN all week and they've got NO problems giving their opinions about what the Jets did. On the day after the trade was made, I was listening to "Boomer (Esiason) and Carton". Craig Carton (huge Jets fan) came out of the gate calling the Jets clowns and it went downhill from there. This trade has been radio gold and I've seriously never had so much fun listening to sports talk than I've had this week. Today it was all about the hosts telling the Jets to stop with the charade and just trade Sanchez already. Zero to hundred and they haven't even finalized the deal or had the press conference yet...LOL This one move is going to bring the NFL to a whole new level which hasn't even been contemplated before. Think about it, future Hall of Fame QB Peyton Manning was traded to Denver and very next day no one even cared! Reality TV nation meets National Football League nation. That's what's coming.
