DrDawkinstein Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 I love the first 4 rounds, and Streeter in the 6th! I think that would give us 4-6 real players. Dont know much about Fletcher or Allen, and dont like Wilson at all. But Id take it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Hammersticks Posted March 7, 2012 Author Share Posted March 7, 2012 (edited) I love the first 4 rounds, and Streeter in the 6th! I think that would give us 4-6 real players. Dont know much about Fletcher or Allen, and dont like Wilson at all. But Id take it! Fletcher's a big (6'1" 195), physical DB who shows good coverage skills and has proven to be solid in run support. Scouts criticize his lack of "top end" speed...I believe his best 40 times are in 4.5 range. Scouts think he has good potential though, and many believe he has flown below the radar due to playing on a horrible Boston College defense. He is also know as a good special teams player, as he has excelled as the gunner position on the punt team. Jeff Allen is a decent sized OT prospect that has seen his stock rise since the combine. Some scouts see him coming off the board in the 4th round. He is known to play with great quickness and leverage in pass blocking, is quick off the snap and is good at getting to the 2nd level in run blocking, and has a solid slide kick to defend against speed rushers. He has played both tackle positions, and many scouts think he could fare well at Guard in the NFL. One criticism is his hand placement in fighting off pass rushers, but that (IMO) is something that can be coached up.

But I do like the rest, Curry has a lot of upside, and Russell is intriguing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russell Wilson - QB Wisconsin Best draft ever minus Russell Wilson, but I doubt Lewis makes it til round 3, or Bequette makes it til 4. I think both are solid 2nd rounders. Streeter in the 6th is even less doubtful. If it happened I'd be fired up, but it's not believable IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPS Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 My only edit would be to replace the DB and the 2nd olb with at least 1 DT. Say a guy like Mike Martin out of Michigan. Suppose it depends on Torrell Troupe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maddenboy Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 (edited) I wouldn't kick that draft out of bed isnt it "I wouldnt kick her outta bed for eatin' crackers?" Point taken, though. 1. Michael Floyd - WR Notre Dame Jonathan Martin - OT Stanford 2. Vinny Curry - 4-3 DE Marshall 3. Ronnell Lewis - 4-3 OLB Oklahoma 4a. Jake Bequette - 4-3 DE Arkansas 4b. Emmanuel Acho - 4-3 OLB Texas 5a. Donnie Fletcher - CB Boston College 5b. Jeff Allen - OT Illinois 6. Tommy Streeter - WR Miami 7. Russell Wilson - QB Wisconsin Are you saying what you want, or what you think will happen? I made this change because Gailey/Nix dont bluff and they have said they are going OT most likely. The only Pain Gailey/Nix got time for is the pain they put on people who think they bluff about their draft plans.

Suppose it depends on Torrell Troupe. I was actually thinking about this....for the reason you gave, but also the uncertainty of Kyle Williams coming off a major surgery.

The only Pain Gailey/Nix got time for is the pain they put on people who think they bluff about their draft plans. I'm just throwing together some draft picks based on my perceived team needs, as well as, some players I'd like to see in a Bills uniform next season. I have yet to read or hear anything from Buddy or Chan that leads me to believe that they are "most likely" going OT with #10. I have heard Buddy comment, however, on not reaching for a pass rusher with the #10 pick because he thinks he can get value in other rounds. To me that means best player available....that could be OT, WR, or CB IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"We gone draft a tackle, . . . if there's one there . . . you caint never have too many tackles." In context, he started by talking about how Pears is a right tackle. Bell has "tools" but is injury prone. Of course this doesnt mean first round, but Nix has already said he doesnt think the top of the draft is deep with DE/pass rushers and he will not reach. He also has said that you draft pass rushers early, and receivers are found later in the draft. Just sayin. After this interview I prepared myself to have a LT in the ten hole (even though my signature is all about pass rush). And i'm at peace with it now. Prepare thyselves.

atlbillsfan1975 Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 (edited) I am sorry i just do not see Buddy taking a WR from ND in the first. It may happen, but he knows and loves the south. He will get his WR in the later rounds from a school below the Mason Dixon line. Edited March 7, 2012 by atlbillsfan1975 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gumby Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Not a fan of Michael Floyd in the 1st round. My personal belief is not to take a WR or RB in the 1st unless it's a generational talent like Calvin Johnson. I just think you can get good value at those two positions throughout the draft.

Plus this kid has a bit of a drinking issue. If he can't control it when he needs to when he's in college how well will he do with millions in his bank account. I think he slides because of this. Talent alone would put him in the top 10. Edited March 7, 2012 by qwksilver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
