  1. You're making the assumption that Kuechley (or anyone else they can get at #10) will be average, and any 2nd Round WR (or anybody else they can get at #41) will be less than mediocre, while also assuming Kalil will be a stud...Now, I'll give you Kalil...I think he's going to be a very good LT...But if I trust my Scouting Dept, I'll take #10 and #41 any day over #3 alone...UNLESS #3 is a Franchise QB...
  2. No thanks...I don't want an OG in the 1st Round...And The Bills, at least Buddy's Bills, have a philosophy to Draft OT's and then move them inside if necessary...DeCastro does not fit that philosophy...Glenn does...I'd rather have Glenn anyway...
  3. Well...Things keep getting more interesting do they not? That Mock had Gilmore going #5 to The Bucs...Wow! Anyway...I'm not trying to say I know more than anybody else...Just what I've seen with my own two eyes on a lot of these Kids...But if Barron turns out to be the 6th best player in this Draft on the NFL field, where it counts, I would be absolutely shocked...I just don't think he's got the speed or cover ability to be THAT good... I still think he can be a very good, if not great NFL SS...Assuming he can stay healthy of course...But 6th best in this Draft? I don't know...
  4. Berry is a FS right? Barron is a Strong...
  5. If Merriman comes back anywhere close to "Light's Out" this Front 7 has REAL nasty capabilities...Can you imagine? And in his prime Merriman could have played just about any LB position...He was amazing...
  6. Really? You would Trade down for DeCastro? Another non-need position? I think in a Trade down the target would be Kirkpatrick, Glenn, or maybe even Steven Hill at #18...
  7. I just assumed Merriman would be used mainly in obvious Passing situations...And I agree they want Merriman, Williams and Anderson on the Field together as much as possible when they (the Bills D) are guessing Pass...Wanny has to be licking his chops at that possibility... Agreed...
  8. Well...Dareus was a bit of a no-briner would you not admit? Sure Buddy could have messed it up, but he would have been run out of town too... I think the Jury is still WAY out on Spiller in the NFL...We'll see...He did come on late last year, but before that he was looking awfully average for #8 overall...The Bills passed on some VERY solid football players to take a "water-bug" RB when they already had two very good RB's in House...Spiller is dynamic no question,and I loved him in College...But he has a HUGE problem breaking tackles...I'd still rather have Lynch and JPP, or Lynch and Anthony Davis, than Spiller and whatever...But admittedly that may just be me...The Troup pick certainly does not speak well of Buddy...Troup was not projected there (at #41 overall) and we passed on some good talent with that pick...So... I do however think Buddy did a very good job last year landing Williams, Searcy, Rogers, and Hairston...Those were the type of picks that make a GM...As crazy as it sounds, I think Easley was a great Pick too in 2010...Just terrible luck with that Kid...But I think he's VERY talented for a 4th Rd WR...
  9. No one seems to be talking much about the injury situation with Barron either...And I realize the Docs are going to go over him with a fine tooth comb...He seems to be a tough Kid who played through some stuff...But on a team that is usually ravaged by injuries...I don't know...I guess he'll fit right in... Barron's Injuries
  10. Don't get too confused...Mayock went to BC, and absolutely LOVES Kuechly...I think he was just trying to play a little devils advocate seeing as though he's usually praising the kid ad nauseam...And maybe somebody was giving him a hard time about it?
  11. Why does that douche-bag Mort still hate The Bills and love TD?
  12. Well...You're preaching to the choir in me...But it does seem some folks don't think he's all that...Or that Searcy is going to amount to much...My thinking is, considering who the Bills already have at SS, this Kid better be the next coming if he's the pick at #10...
  13. True...He has no control over 1-9...So definitely anything can happen...At this point, he can make a list of 10 players and know he's going to get one of them...That's all...
  14. I could be wrong...But I'm assuming that kind of thing would HAVE to be cleared through Nix...Not the whole Mock, but The Bills Pick for sure...Maybe I'm wrong though...
  15. And Buddy flat out said they think they can get a big, fast, WR in the 3rd or 4th Round...Which struck me as TMI at the time... Who knows?...I'm hoping Buddy has this massive master plan working and it has NOTHING to do with Drafting Barron in the end...
  16. I think the fact that a guy on The Bills payroll is Mocking Barron to The Bills brings the interest into question BIG TIME... I mean...IF they love Barron, and you KNOW other Teams love Barron, why in God's name would you let your own employee Mock him to Buffalo? I'll say this much...IF The Bills do love Barron, and IF another Team Trades ahead of them to Draft Barron, they deserve to lose him...and be very disappointed...And that is a HUGE possibility now IMHO...Who could possibly say at this point The Bills have not shown their hand where Barron is concerned? But maybe, just maybe, that's what Buddy wanted all along...
  17. Oh I think Kuechly is a MUCH better all around player than Poz coming out...Definitely more instinctive, better at angles, and a million times better cover LB... That being said, I'm not sure that's saying much...We'll see...
  18. Not sure how Polian fits into this argument considering he's on record saying Barron is an "in-the-box" SS who wills struggle in coverage...So if you think Polian sucks you love Barron, If you think Polian is the man you're scared to death of the pick...
  19. Agreed... You know...I am starting to feel that IF in fact they REALLY want Barron this info leaking out is a REAL bad thing...It's not like a Team can't come up ahead of The Bills and get him if they really want him...From most accounts everybody and their mother wants to trade down...So... Could not possibly agree more with this take... I think Barron is a good player...But... It's talent collecting...Not Team building IMHO...
  20. I'm not comparing Maybin to Barron...Just how I felt about the Pick... I like Spiller as a player...I LOVED him in College...But I still don't think it was the right Pick for this team at the time with Freddie and Lynch on the Roster and a million needs elsewhere... My 4 year old Niece could have made the Dareus pick...so... I have some faith in Buddy...I'm just not as willing as some to give him a free pass...If he nails it this year then I'll be MUCH more willing...We'll see...
  21. This is the whole rub with Barron... Now...I don't think anybody is saying he's the next Reed or Polomalu...But that's OK...Those are HOF Safeties...We're only looking for a perennial Pro Bowler... Seriously though...There are those who feel he is the next great NFL Safety...There are those who feel he is the next great NFL SS...There are those who feel he's not much more than a REAL good in-the-box, downhill, run-stopping SS...It's all over the place with this Kid...But most feel he will be good...Just how good is the question...
  22. I like it! Switch out Jeffery for Wright and I would LOVE this Draft...
  23. I'm guessing this is exactly how The Bills are looking at it...I think it's down to Barron and Kuechly...And they are going to go with the one they feel will match up best with the TE's, and fit best in what they are going to do on Defense... I'm not saying I agree with it, IF that is what they are thinking...but I do think you're close to the thought process if Barron end up being the pick... I'll say this too...And admittedly it means absolutely nothing..But in the past when I've had a REAL bad gut feeling about a pick I've always been able to justify it in my mind after a while...It's the Fan in me...You always want to believe it's going to be alright, or they know what they're doing more than I do...But I hated the Whitner, Maybin, and Spiller picks...All for different reasons...And Barron is giving me the same gut feeling as those high 1st Round picks...So...As a I said then, IF Barron is the pick, I hope I'm wrong... Anyway...
  24. Well...I thought it was too...But it's pretty apparent The Bills Brass does not see it that way...Or they are just collecting talent, and ignoring Team building...Which to be honest is really concerning to me...Wilson is a Team Leader and they just Drafted Searcy...I know they don't care much about Locker Room stuff when they are trying to build a better Team...I hope the Locker Room sees it the same way...Because there are bigger needs on this Team...period... We'll see...
  25. It's Barron... I agree with those who say this is reminding them a ton of the Spiller Pick...A guy at what is considered to be a non-need position who the Bills have rated VERY high...Maybe even higher than most teams... It's Barron...I just have a feeling...But I hope so much I'm wrong...
