Recommended Posts

Assume no big name free agent signings (Dansby, McNabb) have been made, TO is let go, and the Bills stick with a 4-3 as base defense. Here are 5 players we think will be available at our pick in each round, and at least one who we think won't be (although you could pick them one round early). Make the picks you think give us the best chance to win over the next 2 years.

---Colt McCoy QB Texas

 

ROUND 2 (Kindle-Spikes gone)

---Tim Tebow QB Florida

---Jermaine Gresham TE Oklahoma

---Mardy Gilyard WR Cincinnati

---Jason Pierre-Paul DE South Florida

---Daryl Washington ILB TCU

---Eric Norwood ILB South Carolina

---Matt Tennant OC Boston College

---Jeremy Williams WRF Tulane

---Jordan Shipley WRS Texas

---Jevan Snead QB Mississippi

---Selvish Capers OT West Virginia

ROUND 4 (D'Anthony Smith DT, Ciron Black OT/OG, Muckleroy LB gone)

---Dan LeFevour QB Central Michigan

---Brandon Lang DE Troy

---O'Brien Schofield OLB Wisconsin

---George Selvie DE South Florida

---Zane Beadles OG Utah

---Tony Moeaki FB Iowa

---Dekoda Watson OLB Florida State

---Micah Johnson ILB Kentucky

---Danario Alexander WR Missouri

---A.J. Edds OLB Iowa

 

Still on the board after our #4 pick, which you may use:

---Mitch Petrus OG Arkansas

Bulaga- quality OT and another quality move towards building a solid O-line.

 

Pike- high potential QB, who could be in the mix for starting right away or down the road.

 

McCluster- explosive and dynamic playmaker. His stock is rising fast and I doubt he's available this late.

 

Schofield- good rushing OLB and could contribute from Day 1

McCluster's stock will rise and fall all the way to April. My take right now is that McCluster's diminutive size makes him a Roscoe Parrish type player--darting water bug, good punt returner, likely hurt when he plays over the middle with the big boys.

 

I like your picks, though, and hope that Pike falls to RD2#41...

I'd like a DT in there somewhere, but would really like to see the LB corps revamped. An OT and QB will go a long way, but I don't think the Bills will start a rookie QB.

You're probably right on McCluster's stock going up and down. I don't think the Bills could afford taking him in the second round but to me he is worth the risk in round three.

 

Durability is always a concern when dealing with players his size. Keep in mind that Dexter had 181 carries last season, (6.5 average) in the SEC. Down the stretch his workload was expanded and his carries for the last five games were 22, 22, 25, 24, and 16. Mix in 44 receptions on the year and I think he is more accomplished and proven than Roscoe Parrish, who had 42 receptions and 9 carries his final year of college.

 

If McCluster is used as a changeup RB/WR, I think he could be a solid weapon for an NFL team.

I like all four of your picks.

Plus your picks allow the 3-4 more. I will tell you that there are still some good DT's left on many mocks at RD#5, even though the very best ones will gone by RD1#9.

Bryan Bulaga OT Iowa

Vladimir Ducasse OG Massachusetts

Eric Norwood ILB South Carolina

O'Brien Schofield OLB Wisconsin

 

 

 

Bulaga/Ducasse/Hangartner/Wood/Levitre w/ Bell/Butler/Meredith/Incognito as depth <---could be amazing

 

Norwood/Poz/Mitchell <---with schofield/harris as depth

 

 

 

I'd love to get an extra pick somehow and pick up a DT like MT. Cody, not sure how that could happen though

I'm gonna pretend the Bills signed either Aubrayo Franklin or Ryan Pickett in free agency at DT. 1- tied with Bulaga and Davis OT's 2-DE Jason Pierre-Paul or TE Gresham 3- WR Jordan Shipley 4- best LB remaining, inside or outside, don't care which

I'd take Dekota Watson at OLB in that scenario in RD4, especially if we go 3-4. He makes great tackles, has a decent blitz ability, and occasionally plays down end, playing it with tenacity.
