daveydanceswithwolves Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 since chan gailey's offenses have been known for going with a 4 wide set (at least that is what all the analyst's are saying) to spread out the defense, and he likes a quarterback who can give him options with running and throwing (his georgia tech recruiting), i would think the draft would go as such: Round 1: OT or McClain if there Round 2: Colt McCoy (trade up if necessary) Colt McCoy, i feel, is better than people are giving him credit for. He makes quick reads, has ridiculous accuracy, arm strength is above average, can throw the ball downfield with accuracy, and he has great mobility. Not to mention he was a heisman finalist twice and is well versed in running a spread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daveydanceswithwolves Posted January 21, 2010 Author Share Posted January 21, 2010 Bradford's the dream QB for that style offense Bradford isn't going to get past the redskins. If he does drop to nine (teams thinking jimmy clausen is better), the bills better take him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bisonbrigade Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 OT in the 1st round. Tim Tebow or Lefeavor in the 2nd round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talley56 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I would like McCoy if we didn't play up north but unfortunately he's played his whole life in the south. Not so sure he'll be able to handle the December weather in Buffalo. That's why I might prefer LeFevour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocBillsfan Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 OT in the 1st round. Tim Tebow or Lefeavor in the 2nd round. Ditto, the top OT, or Mcclain and a qb in the second, depending on who is available at eac pick for buffalo.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wing Man Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 If Clausen or Bradford is unavailable, trade down for another team's 1, 2, and 4. 1. Take McCoy or Tebow 2a. OT 2b. DT (DE is Schobel retires) 3. ILB 4a. DE 4b. OLB 5. RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarolinaBill Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I'll take Lefevour, more experience in the cold weather, same skill set as tebow and mccoy, and bradford, and he's the most mobile of the 4 qbs I would like to somehow fenagle 2 first rd picks and take either an OT or LB with one then cody with the other Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Tebow/McCoy in the first? Drafting a RB at all? And why are we drafting an ILB over an OLB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2o Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I'll take Lefevour, more experience in the cold weather, same skill set as tebow and mccoy, and bradford, and he's the most mobile of the 4 qbs I would like to somehow fenagle 2 first rd picks and take either an OT or LB with one then cody with the other Uhhhhhhhh, no. Bradford is actually a good NFL prospect at QB. He threw for almost 5,000 yards and had 50 TD's in one season. He also had a completion percentage up around 70% when healthy , averaging over 9 yards per attempted pass. McCoy has had an excellent completion % also, but doesn't have the size of Bradford, the arm strength, nor the same kind accuracy on the deeper throws. LeFevour and Tebow are QB's successful in the system run by their teams, but more of a gimmick QB than a drop back, read the defense, and get the ball out type players. Everyone also seems to have forgotten about Pike now for some reason. Pike, IMO, seems like a Gailey type of QB. Ran a spread type offense, still was effective when lining up under Center, "weather tested" for all of the Buffalo faithful, and can make all the throws from what I've seen. He could be had in the 2nd, possibly even the 3rd depending on how things play out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpcolosi Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 OT in the 1st round. Tim Tebow or Lefeavor in the 2nd round. agreed or in the 3rd. To be honest, QB is not as important to us as our OL at this point. And there are not that many NFL ready qb's this year. we may be better off getting Lefouver or tebow later (plus they probably have as much upsde as mccoy or bradoford) and focusing on the lines and LB. anyone who thinks Claussen, McCoy, or Bradford is the right move at 9 has to have their head examined. none of them are locks to be even remotely as good as Sanchize and he wasn't vey good this year. In addition, as everyone should know by now, a good QB is useless behind a non existent OL. And Bell and Butler are NOT the answers long term. see D'brickshaw ferguson if you want to see what tackles should look like... draft: 1st round - OL or McClain if there 2nd - OL/DT/DE/LB 3rd - DT/DE/LB 4th - QB (if lefouver or tebow still around) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RB the only team dumb enough to do that is us really? do u think there is a team willing to give up 3 picks, including a 1 and a 2, just to move up to 9th???

If he was a system QB like you say he would get sacked all the time. His system is to stay in the pocket and throw to spots. This guy has the legs to run from 30 yards out and score. He has played in cold weather. but the two things that stand out in my book on him is his "clock" he knows when to step up in the pocket and when to get out of the pocket. the other thing is his leadership. He is a good leader and commands his offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring Back Kelly Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 On that note, If we could get these guys, I would go after Matt Light in Free Agency than draft Round One: Rolando McClain – LB Alabama Round Two: Greg Hardy DE – Old Miss Round Three: Dan Le Fevour QB – CMU Round Four: Arthur Jones DT – Syracuse Round Five: Eric Olsen OG – Notre Dame Round Six: Stanley Havili FB – USC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially in this season when teams may be worried about their rookies asking for tons considering this may be the last year without a rookie salary cap.

The Poojer Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Does Buffalo have anything of value that would allow us to make trades to keep our present pick or maybe move down one or two spots to allow us to draft mclain, and also get us a lower 1st to get someone like a Baluga(sp) or other quality OT? or would this require us to give up too much on unknown commodities.
