Round 3 (Pick #68): LB Kelvin Sheppard - LSU
Búfalo Blanco replied to Beerball's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'm diggin' this draft thus far.... a rare occurrence in recent years.. -
Marcus Cannon is a mountain! 6' 5" and 358 lbs and he's a road grader... Could be one hell of an addition to the running game if he can stay in shape... Interesting RT prospect. If they can get one solid OT, a good OLB prospect, a TE and perhaps one more DE this could be the best draft for Buffalo in several years... Great option.... Another knock on him is too many false starts... But this is a run blocker I would love to see in a Bills uniform...

Adam Schefter: Denver is taking Miller at 2
Búfalo Blanco replied to Deep2Moulds46's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Dareus at #3 could begin to turn this defense around... -
Besides the mere fact that I lost a bet on that Pit. @ Buf. game to a Steelers fan that still give me s**t about it... "God made me do it"... How many times I've heard that!!! That alone makes me wish he had caught it... Add to that, another thing: From catches like that stars are made... Now, I'm not saying Stevie is not a star in the making, merely that winning THAT game with THAT catch could have propelled him there more quickly... I for one don't mind them picking at 13... I'll take the plays that win games and instill confidence in a young team...

Can the Bills to blow this 3rd pick ?
Búfalo Blanco replied to Scrappy's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I understand this GM and HC have only been here for a year now... but there are others with influence in this organization who have been here for some time... Judging some of the drafts over the last several years, I don't think there is any question that they could mess this up... Mike Williams was a slam dunk at #4, wasn't he? I hope for the best, but the track record is not inspiring... -
Git er done, Buddy!!!!

Yet another thread on draft thoughts, scenarios

Amen! -
+1 He could have a lot of potential as a lead blocker, if nothing else...

With the 3rd Pick in the 2011 NFL Draft
Búfalo Blanco replied to DasNootz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
There really are several options the Bills have at 3.... I believe they could go a lot of ways and help themselves... But I did not see an option on the poll for trading down (I understand that it takes two to tango and they should get very good compensation or not do it at all at so high a pick)... I would say best scenario: Trade down for more picks or take Fairley if he is there... If not, here's another option I might try... Put feelers out on the value of Lee Evans.. If the price is right, trade him and then draft A. J. Green... That way, they have several young offensive weapons in place with Johnson on one side, Green on the other, Parrish in the slot (plus Easley, Jones and Nelson as secondary options).. Spiller and Jackson in the backfield.. Fitzpatrick at the helm (for now). Then spend the rest of the draft (hopefully with some added picks) working mainly on the defensive front seven, a possible future starter at QB in the second or third, and another offensive lineman and/or TE... Then fill the other holes through FA and re-signings... A lot of things can and will change before the draft, but this scenario could work for Buffalo if they are lucky enough to pick up some valuable picks via trades.... -

I don't necessarily disagree with what you are saying about copyright infringement... But the "love it or leave it" argument is ridiculous.... Especially in this country. -
Bills and Ravens Should Switch Places in Divisions
Búfalo Blanco replied to Moose's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It would definitely give it more of a regional college rivalry feel.... It seems logical... Though I will play devil's advocate and ask... Wouldn't it be much more enjoyable to soon see the Bills finally beat Belichick, Ryan and those damned Dolphins and win the division..? It sure would shut most of the obnoxious NFL analysts up... -
Heh heh heh.... Wooooooooooooooooo!!!!!! Why do I think of Tom Brady..? A great Buffalo team should be a smashmouth, aggressive defensive team.... Something like "Hands of Stone" Ronnie Garvin...

Tacky.... Just tacky.... They looked much better covered in sod.... WAR DAMN EAGLE!!!!! National Champs!!!!

I'm kind of curious where Doc got that myself..
-
Read what I actually said... What I said was IF that was the reason he decided not to re-sign him... Personally I don't think that was the reason... I believe he wanted to see what he had in Stevie Johnson, among others... Besides, I'm sure the GM Buddy Nix had just as much to do with those decisions, if not more... I never stated that Gailey said T.O. was washed up... My entire point in this thread is about Kriegel's article.. Doc brought up Gailey in this thread, not me...
-
Actually Doc, I don't believe you're being fair to my point... There was a season in between July 2010 and Jan. 2011.... My point is that Kriegel deemed T.O. washed up before he was signed by the Bengals or the 2010 season actually occurred.. He proved his critics wrong yet again... and the numbers more than prove it... In fact, he actually increased his production... Now, I understand he was with a very bad and injury-riddled Bills roster in 2009, but he still led that Buffalo offense... He went on to lead the Bengals this season too... Kriegel was just plain wrong... If Gailey actually made the decision himself in the offseason that T.O. was washed up, then he was wrong too... That does not mean that the Bills should have re-signed him.. Based on Stevie Johnson's development, it was probably the right decision for Buffalo.. Besides, in my opinion, the only reason the Bills front office signed Owens to begin with in 2009 was to help lagging ticket sales.. and it worked. This offseason is THIS offseason.. but don't fall into the same trap Kriegel did.. Perhaps T.O. does not come back from a torn meniscus.. He is 37 years old.. But thus far in his career, he has proven his critics wrong.. I know people love to hate him, but no one (particularly Kriegel and his article) can deny his talent...

Back in July, Mark Kriegel (Fox Sports) wrote an article claiming that T.O. was washed up... This article was posted on The Stadium Wall for discussion before the season... Since I cannot reply to that thread directly, I have posted the link to it in the archives: Thread: http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/topic/115763-one-writer-thinks-to-is-washed-up/page__p__1904689__fromsearch__1#entry1904689 Fox Sports Article: http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/terrell-owens-washed-up-and-looking-for-work-071510 Here's an exerpt from the article which I thought was particularly premature: As this is the NFL, the issue has little to do with character. After all, Roethlisberger and Vick (at least for now) still have jobs. It has to do with Owens’ decline as a football player. It was all he could do to catch 55 balls for 829 yards last season with the Bills. Those numbers, combined with his age, translate into new cost-benefit analysis. He’s not worth the trouble anymore. Well, after leading the Bengals with 72 rec. 983 yds. a 13.7 yd avg. and 9 TDs (Over twice as many TDs as Ochocinco), I'd say Kriegel's got some explaining to do...

I lived in Alabama for several years growing up and have always rooted for Auburn... A.U., to me, are underdogs much like the Bills and have had to endure a a rival that has won 13 national titles... I'm rooting for Cam Newton, allegations or not... He is a special athlete... Whether he would be a favorite for Buffalo come draft time, I don't know... But I find a few things interesting in the equation... For one, we all know that Buddy Nix is an SEC and southern football guy and hails from Alabama... Gailey is from Georgia and went to U of Florida... not to mention he had coaching gigs with Troy, Troy St. and Georgia Tech.. Two, if it is true that Nix and Gailey were trying to move up and get Tebow last year, then that would be a clue that a QB like Newton might be exactly the style they are looking for... and a spread offense with some wildcat and other wrinkles would be about right for Gailey... Three, while we aren't certain yet, the Bills look to have a high pick next April.. They need to sell tickets and a "Tebow" type draft prospect could be the answer... I'd say there is a fair to good shot that Buffalo goes after Newton if everything falls into place... Buffalo does have a lot of needs though, so there are many ways they could go...
