DUTE Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Damn who the heck would of thought that the best player of the 08 Bills draft class would be Stevey J followed by Bell? Im happy that we were able to get solid starting players that late but its just pathetic how awful the rest of that draft is. Mckelvin still has a chance to be a contributor on this team but i think its pretty clear now that he will never live up to his 11th overall pick expectations. I gave it a C for the poll but it should be more like a c- or a d+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poo Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Damn, I remember this draft and how much I wanted Hardy to be the other guy for, was it Losman?, to throw to. Honestly now with leodis probably starting this coming season, along with sj, db, and reggie as slot guy, this draft is looking decent. None of them have been lights out, except for sj's solid run last year, and there have been problems, sj's pittsburgh drop in ot, the mckelvin fumble, demetrius getting knocked down by my grandmother. All that being said, I give it a B for putting three starters and a slot corner in there. maybe sj picks it up this year and leodis keeps it together. either way, looking better as time has passed and i am generally feeling the euphoria after three solid d picks today. generous with a b, yes. crazy? not so much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munch Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 I gave it an A, I just wish A+ was one of the options! Maybe even A++! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangarang Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Gave it a D. The only saving grace is Stevie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Barbarian Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 I gave it an A, I just wish A+ was one of the options! Maybe even A++! 2008 draft my friend, not this years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
/dev/null Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 I gave it a C because we got one starter and 2 rotational guys Unfortunately one of the rotational guys was the 1st round pick along with a 4th round pick, and the starter was a 7th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1B4IDie Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 C- or D+ when Bell looks great in 2011 it will be a solid C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KD in CA Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Gave it a D. The only saving grace is Stevie. Yup. McKelvin is another Whitner: adequate player but terribly over rated by the Bills' FO. I had hoped Bowen would be able to show somthing, but he never got back after a pre-season injury. He was probably too small anyway, but had some fire.

Rob's House Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 It looks a lot better if you flip it upside down. If SJ had gone in rd 2 and Bell in rd 3 with Ellis and Hardy going in the 7th, this would look like a decent draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBill Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Gave it a D. The only saving grace is Stevie. Ditto though I wonder if Bell will be able to take a step forward this year. If not for the seventh round this draft would have been an absolute failure or worse if you could grade it so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 I think we didn't have the best draft, but I think if I had to give it a grade...I think potatoe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
section122 Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Starting lt, #2 corner, #1 wr, and a nickel corner in one draft makes a great draft imo. Yes they aren't stars but they are more than contributors on this team. Gave it an a. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
