KOKBILLS

I tied to get Y'all fired up about this when we signed the Kid, but nobody seemed very interested... Powell was the best Punter in College Football last year...He has a big leg and great accuracy...He's a legit threat to Moorman...And Moorman is no where near the Punter he was a few years back...How more Bills Fans are not frustrated with his inconsistency is beyond me...Sure he still booms one every now and again...But he also shanks them WAY too often for my liking...With this new Defense, Punting is going to be HUGE for The Bills this year...Pinning opponents, and making them drive the length of the field is important...I think Mooorman's number is up to be honest...JMO, but I think it's time... And Powell is a holder btw...

I like Wilson too...But premature a bit? Rookie Camp?...

He had a real rough 2011...At least at times he did..But this is likely a little more Cap related than anything...I knew The Bills were goign to start chopping some Cap dollars from Vets...But to be honest I never thought Florence would be one of them...

Oh man that is awfully funny though...

Plus...The kid can flip the field... "2011 Football Bowl Subdivision national leader with a 47-yard average...punted 57 times for 2,681 yards...had 24 punts of 50 or more yards with at least one 50-plus yarder in nine of 13 games...23 punts downed inside the 20 which included 14 inside the 10-yard line..." Bio

Or a hit where he doesn't cause a fumble and recover it? Seriously though, this Kid is a heck of a good Football player...Hard to believe he lasted till the 4th Round... Exactly...I think Folks have NO idea how much DB talent is on the average LSU, or Alabama Roster...It's sick... And he wore #13!

I know right? I mean...I know it's just a Punter, but I'm actually surprised more Fans are not a little excited about this Kid...Lets face facts, A great Punter make a HUGE difference, especially with a MUCH improved Defense...And Moorman has REALLY fell off over the past couple years IMHO...I know he's a Fan favorite, and a great community guy...But that's not going to secure a job on this Team any longer...Did anyone notice how Buddy made a point of saying they are bringing in a Punter to compete?...This Kid is serious competition for Moorman...No question about it...

Chances are...

This is a BIG signing I think (I mean, as far as Punters go it is...)...This Kid is no joke...And Moorman has seen his better days...I think it's time...

Me too! Oh would I LOVE to see Long in Buffalo!!!...He belongs in a place like Buffalo...Miami is simply not a fit for a blue-collar player like Jake IMHO...

Could the reason be that the OG/OT is 100 times better football player than Streeter is right now? Just saying...

How exactly did you get that out of what you saw?...They showed a single play where an OT was beat (turns out it was not Glenn) to the inside by a a DE, at the Sr Bowl (No name? It was an All Star Game Practice... ) to illustrate what happens when he does not move his feet correctly...Then they showed a play where he stones a guy (this WAS Glenn) at the same Practice moving his feet the right way... Also...If you watched Mayock's description a couple days ago concerning why he moved Glenn back up into a 1st Round Grade, he explained how Glenn reminded him of Marcus McNeil...And how he had missed on McNeil calling him a "heavy legged waist-bender." He said Glenn was similar and even though he sees him as more of a Guard/RT prospect, after doing some "self-scouting," he moved him back up because he is massive and has great potential... The Buffalo Bills are saying Glenn is a LT Prospect...They Drafted him to be one...We'll see if they are right...But like Buddy said "No he’s not a guard. He started 50 games, the last 16 was left tackle. We put it out there, we tried to spread the rumor that he was a guard and hope somebody wouldn’t take him." Now maybe Buddy is wrong, and some of these talking heads are right...But to be honest, and no offense, I think you're kind of over exaggerating the the whole reaction thing...Glenn was a VERY good, if not great College Offensive Lineman...Mayock had him Rated #25 overall...Pro Football Weekly had him at #23...He's a 1st Team All SEC, and 3rd Team AP All American LT in his first full year playing the position...How many prospects can say that? All the Scouts seem to like him...The ONLY question is whether or not he's going to be a LT...Some think he's going to be a LT (like The Bills), others don't...But almost everybody agrees he's going to be a Pro Bowl caliber Guard if he plays there...And The Bills had terrible injury problems all along the O-Line last Season...So as far as I can tell, this was a no-brainer pick...He makes our O-Line WAY better from day #1...

Wow! Nice catch...can't believe I did not see that...

Right...Mayock was stunned by the Glenn Pick...A Player he himself had rated #25 overall, who went #41 overall, to a Team that needed an OT...And he was shocked... Right...

Just in case some of you did not here the Presser...When asked if Graham was a slot WR Gailey was pretty emphatic that he was going to play outside...So all this talk about the slot/returns...According to the HC/Offensive Guru...He's not going to be a slot guy, and they may hold off on the returns too... On if Graham is an outside or slot receiver: Chan Gailey: "Outside guy. The speed, he’s 5’11” and something, close to 6’. He can run by most everybody, I mean the guy can fly, and like Buddy said he can catch. He’s got some return ability, don’t know if we’ll do that right off the bat, we’ll let him work at receiver more than anything and try to become proficient there."

Oh that's perfect...

Exactly!

Agreed...But it's not only that...He's not a great athlete, and he does not have great size...Just look at Martin...He looks like a blow up TE...He needs at least a full year, maybe two of NFL conditioning...I don't think his smarts-alone are going to get him by in the NFL while he gets bigger and stronger...I think he's much better suited, body-wise, to move in to Center...He certainly has the smarts for it... I like Martin the Kid, but not so much the LT prospect...I think he's WAY, way over-rated...

Usually I get pissy about this stuff...But I'm so confident Gilmore is going to be a VERY solid Cover Corner for years to come, I could really care less what anyone says about the Pick...I watched this Kid almost every Saturday for 3 years...He's going to be awesome when he gets Coached up just a bit...I love the Pick...

Well...If The Bills Board was anything like Mayocks, and they had Gilmore at #8 overall...You get the #8 guy on your Board at #10...And you're pretty happy you did not give up a 2nd, or 3rd Round Pick, for another guy who was a couple slots higher...

I'm pretty sure they had Gilmore ahead of Kuechly...Buddy was asked point blank what was more important, CB or LB if both had similar Grades, and he said CB immediately...I think it was Barron, Gilmore, Kuechly, then Floyd...

I really like Jeffery...But why Upshaw?

I LOVE Jeffery..But I would be happy with Hill as well...

I would honestly be shocked if the Colts do not take Fleener at #34...

I don't think I made predictions like that...Unless I was stoned... Seriously though I do like Jeffery more than Floyd, not Blackmon...But then again I watched just about every Game Jeffery played in College, and I just like the Kid... I totally understand why he has slid...He got chubby...There's no question about it...I saw the gut... But I still think he's loaded talent-wise, and Buddy said he wants a WR who is open even when he's not...Alshon Jeffery IS that WR...I do think he's got the best hands in the Draft...I really like the Kid and hope we take a chance on him...
