San Jose Bills Fan Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 I'm relatively certain that Aaron Williams will start for this team. The Bills had only one team picking before them in this round and Nix said after the first round that they think they will get a starter at #34. I really think all of those saying that Williams is a nickel back are off the mark. He's gonna start. The question is whether he starts at corner or safety.

NewEra Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 I would have preferred Jimmy Smith over Aaron Williams, but Williams was the next best corner besides the top 3 Can't draft someone that isn't available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll see...He's going to be a Rookie...He was the #34 Overall Pick in a terrible Draft Year for DB's...I like Williams, but projecting him to start as a Rookie in the NFL is a HUGE stretch...As a 5th or 6th DB he should do very well though as he learns his craft...

bbb Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 They should have a 3 day waiting period on player tweets. PTR Yeah, and a breathalyzer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purple haze Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Although I disagree what's your point? He can start and if resigned could have enabled bills to draft a different player Who would you rather have Florence and Rudolph or a pass rusher there or Aaron Williams who probably won't even start this year? If he's the nickel back he's basically a starter. It's a passing league. Many teams run three and four receiver sets consistently. Need more than two corners. Stop complaining. The Bills needed a DB. And won't be surprised if they draft another. I'm relatively certain that Aaron Williams will start for this team.

FB position has been replaced by an extra WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Worst post of the day and a poor attempt at rationalization. He wasn't the problem. He actually was a pretty good corner. Maybe if they re-signed him duriung the season, they could have used the pick on an ILB, OLB, DE, C, LT, or TE. Instead we draft another DB early. Were you watching the Bills last year?

I don't think OLB is too big of a concern for the Bills. I get the sense that they really like Merriman and Moats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastRochBillsfan Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Could have resigned Florence and drafted a different position there.....different GM same result What the hell is wrong with some of you people? We can still resign Florence. It's not like we are set at cornerback or safety. If he's a player, you take him. different gm, different result. if it was the same result, we would have taken Peterson with the first pick. or Ingram. man, some of you piss me off.

McGee is coming off injury , McKelvin needs to get more consistent , Reggie is a smallish CB but servicable. I see no reason why A Williams draft means there is no roon for DF. If he wants to play for us I am sure a contract can get done. Yobouty is gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Hansen Forever Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 They should still keep Drayton Florence. 1.) McKelvin has not proven to be able to start 2.) McGee is always injured 3.) No guarantee that this kid steps in and starts. This was a moronic pick unless it means they let Whitner leave, then I love it. I like Florence. I hope they dump Whitner and Youbouty. Both suck. Florence plays with heart, but does tend to get penalized often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
