VirginiaMike Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 I agree that we need to draft impaxct players and I'd go further to say they should be on the defensive side of the ball. AJ Green may indeed turn out to be a great player (I'm not sold yet completely), but even if heturns out super he would not make an impact in Buffalo. Our offense was not stopped because we needed receivers, it was stopped because the line was not as good as it needed to be and the running game suffered. Don't get me started on Tight End. Drafting a wideout with our first pick will mirror drafting Spiller last year -- he may be good, but he won't make a difference on this team. In this case, Spiller wasn't even that good last year. Let's look for DEFENSE and impact players on the front 7. If the Bills improve there, they will be a better team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 If you want Immediate Impact, you go DLine. Dareus, Jordan, Fairley I doubt Von Miller will even be a 3-down player this year. He's all pass rush and no run support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgrid Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 (edited) Altho not my first pick, I'd have to say Peterson would be an impact player as well. JJ Watt maybe too, in addition to above-mentioned D-linemen. Assuming Dareus is off the board, Im hoping for Cam Jordan, w/ a trade-down if possible. Get the QB in the 2nd, impact player in 1st Edited April 15, 2011 by dgrid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpberr Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Cam Jordan and Kyle Rudolph would get you there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
playman Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Cam Jordan and Kyle Rudolph would get you there. id prefer an OT if someone with talent drops to us in the 2nd. doubtful though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Linen Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 If you want Immediate Impact, you go DLine. Dareus, Jordan, Fairley I doubt Von Miller will even be a 3-down player this year. He's all pass rush and no run support. Not only will Miller not help with the run, I believe he would be a liability. My choice is Jordan. He's got everything the Bills need. Pass rush ability, size to stop the run, can play any position on the line, and I believe he can drop back in coverage to some extent. Here's some other players I would count on to be impactful. Troup, Carrington, Moats, and Batten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, you have your Peyton Manning's and Matt Ryan's who do well, but there's a huge learning curve. You draft a QB early so you can sit him and learn and plug him in when he's ready. It's really not that difficult of a concept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreReed83 Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Yes. Because our "impact player" from last year's draft served us so well. You think AJ Green will be an "impact" player for us off the bat? A WR has a big learning curve as well, so I wouldn't expect much from him in his rookie year.

He's all pass rush and no run support. Yep. You are guaranteed to get instant impact when drafting DL. Just look at Maybin, McCargo, Troupe, Carrington, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next year could be entertaining, but face it, we aren't winning the SB. That's the long term goal and IMO, that's what we should be "building" for. No one knows if that will pan out, but if they like a QB, take him, no questions asked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KD in CA Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 You never want a rookie QB to start immediately. Sure, you have your Peyton Manning's and Matt Ryan's who do well, but there's a huge learning curve. And even then there's a learning curve. Of course starting as a rookie helped him mature, but Manning was not very good his rookie year and his team was terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
