BuffaloBaumer Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Some people will be jumping for joy and others will want to put their head through a wall. Honestly, I may be one of the few that will be happy with any pick other than DB or WR. If they think they got their guy at QB, it will be hard not to get excited. If they get a DT/DE or LB, it will go a long way as well. Looks like the Draft BBQ will resume after a 5 year absence..... Sabres are on a roll, Bills are getting new uniforms, the temp is is the 40s next week and the Bills select..........Time to get that positive mojo goin' folks!

Dorkington Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 You mean... "No matter who the Bills draft, they will be a bust." Right? (low expectations means I will be happy in the end!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thoner7 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Ok well when they draft Miller I am gonna be so pissed because he is going to do ZERO for our pass rush and even less against the run. Not too exciting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homey D. Clown Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I would honestly be happy with any pick except for Cam Newton at #3, or DB/WR as the OP said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerball Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Yes, but it WILL be exciting up until they actually make the pick I'd add LB to your 'do not pick' list too. At least at #3, there isn't one that I want. There isn't an OT ranked that highly this year either. Maybe that will allow the FO to focus on a handful of players.

Turbosrrgood Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 (edited) The scary part is, it's usually hard to go wrong with a #3...but nobody messes up their draft better than the Bills. In the last 10+ years we have only had 2 (maybe 3)1st rounders that I can think of that have even become legitimate starters and no superstars. Sorry I'm not feeling optimism...especially guys with huge question marks like Von Miller and Cam Newton being talked about.

DreReed83 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Trade down, Bowers, Green, Fairley, Dareus. Give me one of these and i'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not getting one of those guys if you trade down though, they could all be gone by pick 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbosrrgood Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 So unless the Bills take a DL, this board will revolt and declare the management incompetent? Well considering some of those listed were projected LB's and a WR...Your post is a little off, and the management has already long since proven themselves incompetent.

1B4IDie Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 (edited) That is for sure going to be a crazy year for the draft. This year almost anything could happen. There are about 10+ options at #3. All the way through draft its going to be crazy. There about 80 players in my opinion that have 2nd round grades. Its splitting hairs more than ever this year. Pick #68 could be a game changer too. List of "bad" picks in reverse order "badness" imo (good luck trying to figure out what that means) at #3 overall: 4. Gaine Blabbert, or Yo Gabba-Gabbert. Blaine? ugh. #1 High School QB doesn't do much in College now comes to the NFL to not do much too? Or maybe do more than not much? - This will cause some indigestion for a couple years. 3. AJ Green, Yay! We have a beast of a WR. Booooo! opposing offenses are still on the field for too long. 2. Von Miller, will be a good LB. Not really aiming for "good" or "LB" with #3 pick. 1. Patrick Peterson, 2 years of being a bad CB, then best case he embraces the safety role he could be a game changing safety. List of picks that I don't think are bad but would leave me worried in reverse order of worrisomeness. 4. Cam Jordan - Really is he really worth the #3 overall I hope he becomes a stud, should be a good player though 3. Quinn - Dude is manaimal. Could be a more athletic LaMarr Woodley or the year off could make him the second biggest bust after Maybin. 2. Bowers - #1 overall High School recruit doesn't do much in College now comes to the NFL to not do much too? Or maybe do more than not much? , I hope his father dying (RIP) really lights a fire under him. (not that mean I'm glad his father died I would never wish that on anyone I just mean he lacked motivation all through college until that happened.) 1. Cam Newton - The guy has a low floor and a very High Ceiling, imo. He will be a good QB, he has the potential for greatness. Do the Bills have potential for greatness? List of picks that I would be jumping for joy: 4. Marcell Dareaus - certified beast. Marcellasaurus and Kyle the Rockpile are going to make Brady and Sanchez feel uncomfortable for a long time, allowing our LBs to clean up the collapsed pockets. Not a stat monster but a game changer. 3. Nick Fairely - Big, mean, nasty, bad attitude (in a good way.) You can't stop him you can only contain him. 2. A Stud LT - Doesn't appear to be in this draft 1. A QB that I actually think could be a franchise QB - doesn't look like there is anything in the draft that's more than a 50/50 chance of making it. Really outside of Patrick Peterson they should have a good player, it really will take a Buffalo Bills type of bust detector pick to screw up the #3 overall.

DerekJ Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Hope springs eternal but we must address DT/DE with the first pick. If Locker is available in the second, we take him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locker will be available in the second . . . and the third . . . probably the fourth. NFL people know he can't play NFL football, he could barely play college football.

thebandit27 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 The draft is always exciting, but even moreso when your team is picking at the top. Personally, I don't care what position it is as long as the guy makes a positive impact right away...the bottom line is that the team needs to get better.

CJallDAY Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Cam newton will make the offense better, even if he just runs options with spiller but if they pick him Gailey will definitely use him this year. And dareus makes the defense better. either pic id be happy with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locker is awful, this guy is all hype no production. It's great to have "all the tools" and everything, but if you cant the broad side of a barn it won't do much good. Did you watch the "skills" competition? Not only could he not hit the targets, he wasn't even close. Cam newton will make the offense better, even if he just runs options with spiller but if they pick him Gailey will definitely use him this year.
