  9. Bills in a quandary Coming into this draft, the Buffalo Bills were in an interesting jam because they were trying to get the best value for RB Travis Henry in one of the better running back drafts in recent memory. Now their options are extremely limited as his value has gone down because the three teams that really wanted him all drafted running backs. The problem with Henry is he only has one year left on his contract, so whichever team gets him will have to pay him big bucks after the season or let him go. He doesn't have the value of a guy who's signed for the next two or three years because he could merely be a rental player. Ultimately, the Bills didn't have much leverage. Now the Bills have to switch strategies, and maybe their new goal is to use Henry to fill one of the needs they didn't fill in the draft. Meanwhile, the Seattle Seahawks and Indianapolis Colts are prepared to just go ahead and let their respective running backs (Shaun Alexander and Edgerrin James) stay under a franchise tag for another season. The Colts probably can't commit another $12 million to $15 million signing bonus for a player because the stadium deal is starting to go south a little. I just don't see teams trading a player or a pick for any of these guys and handing out a big signing bonus. Instead of doing that, they can wait a year and most likely get these guys for just the signing bonus.
  10. Me neither...but that'swhat he said...Who knows?
  11. Aaron: Where do the latest rumors have Travis Henry going, and what will the Bills get in return? SportsNation Gary Horton: (11:53 AM ET ) Just got off the phone with Arizona and it appears to be a dead deal there. The concencus is Henry is going to the Eagles. They will give up a third round pick for them. That would be a great deal for the Eagles and probably forces the Cardinals to now take one of the three RBs in the first round. Tampa was also in play but Henry will be a Eagle by the end of the day.
  12. I could live with that...but a straight 3rd...No.
  13. I once had 4 sacks in one game in high school
  14. I can see a DT.....Wouldn't be surprised...but I would't be suprised if ole' TD pulled off a trade for a late 1st rounder either.
  15. ZZZZZZZ ZZZZZZZZZZ ZZZZZZZZZ Off the bench in NFL Europe....Ummmm Excited...NOT!! As above...Camp Fodder.
  16. President/GM Tom Donahoe has shown patience and vision in his approach. The past two drafts have seen the Bills use first-round picks on two players (RB Willis McGahee, 2003; QB J.P. Losman, 2004) who would not make significant contributions as rookies. But with McGahee having a breakout year in 2004 and with Losman set to take over the reigns for the departed Drew Bledsoe (Cowboys), Donahoe and the Bills are reaping the reward. In all reality, the Bills don't have many pressing needs. There remains a strong possibility that the Bills will get a deal done to acquire OT L.J. Shelton from the Cardinals for disgruntled RB Travis Henry. If that's the case, the Bills' top need will be erased. If not, the team will probably be forced to use its first pick of the upcoming draft – No. 55, second round – on a replacement for the departed LOT Jonas Jennings (49ers). Assuming the Henry-for-Shelton deal gets worked out, the Bills will shift their focus to defense, where depth at cornerback and tackle are needed. The team plans to use Nate Clements and Terrence McGee as its starting cornerback tandem, but its nickel and dime packages are not set. Ideally, the Bills would like to draft a prospect in the second round such as Virginia Tech's Eric Green, who has enough upside to eventually develop into a starter opposite Clements, which would allow McGee to move to a more suitable sub-package slot role. After losing DT Pat Williams (Vikings) via free agency, the Bills should be fine with Ron Edwards and Tim Anderson rotating at the starting spot next to Pro Bowl DT Sam Adams. However, Adams is 31, and there isn't any legitimate depth behind these three, which is why drafting a prospect such as Northwestern's Luis Castillo in the second round or Missouri's Atiyyah Ellison in the third round would make a lot of sense. Barring any moves leading up to or on draft day, the Bills are headed for a quiet day one with just two selections (55 and 86). If the team elects to use its first two picks on a cornerback and defensive tackle – in either order – the second day of the draft (picks 122, 156, 197, 236) will be concentrated on improving depth situations along the interior offensive line, at tight end, defensive end, running back, quarterback and/or inside linebacker. More specifically, the Bills could use a versatile interior lineman who can back up both the guard and center positions – such as Nebraska's Richie Incognito – and a tight end with enough upside to eventually contribute as a seam-stretching pass catcher (such as Lehigh's Adam Bergen). If the Bills do deal Henry prior to the draft, they are likely to use an earlier day two pick on a back such as Louisville's Lionel Gates, whose upside might not be great. But Gates has enough proven talent to take some of the load off of McGahee. Buffalo used all four of its first-round picks over the past three drafts to address needs on the offensive side of the ball, and this approach has been successful for the most part. OT Mike Williams ('02) has been a starter since entering the league, RB Willis McGahee ('04) supplanted Travis Henry as the starter last year and WR Lee Evans ('04) averaged a gaudy 17.6 yards per reception last year. The one concern is QB J.P. Losman ('04), who missed much of last year with a broken leg. However, the Bills were confident enough in his abilities to release Drew Bledsoe.
  17. Apr. 21 - The newest suitor for Edwards in a trade up is the Washington Redskins. The Vikings have cooled a little on moving up from No. 7, but they will still shop until Saturday. The Redskins made several calls to teams at the top of the draft and even checked out to see Edwards' interest in coming to Washington. The Redskins have No. 9 and No. 25. Though it's more likley they will end up staying at the picks, Joe Gibbs is trying to come up with a big play late. Eli Manning got a seven-year, $54.29 million deal last year from the Giants as the first pick. Teams generally build in a quarterback premium because of the value of the position, but that doesn't mean Edwards would sign at a discount. It means the 49ers know Edwards costs less because he's not a quarterback. The 49ers do not want to pay significantly more than the Giants paid Manning, which helps Edwards.-->
