BillsInMaine Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 How can anyone be dissapointed? A top talent at a posistion we need. Its a pass happy league. I trust Nix 100%.! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reks Ryan Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Because we didnt draft a wr or ot with our only draft pick of course Because we have the same below average talent on O minus 1 starting lineman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KD in CA Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Since a lot of people seem to be not listening to Buddy, I'll repeat what his philosophy is again... Buddy takes BPA regardless of position. That is what he did at 10. Adding the best available player left in the draft to the roster is never a bad thing. I'm sorry, but I'm really tired of the ridiculous "BPA" nonsense. DeCastro is the best player available but the Bills don't need a guard, they needed a CB and that's why he was taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SDS Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 So, apparently someone shot Stephon's dog right before we picked him. Very sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 I watched the highlight film twice now and noticed he is a finese tackler, using his arms. I think this could be most important facing the Jets and their running backs, the Pats and their TE's, and Miami and their...oh wait, ha, yeah, Miami - clowns. Seriously, I am hoping the footage was hightlighting his "body slams" and his fancy tackles. I would like comment from someone who has seen more.

BillsVet Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 This is Groundhog Day: The Sequel. Once again the Bills go for a cornerback in the first round while they have more pressing needs. I believe Gilmore is good, but we have huge holes at OT and LB. Now we will be weeping about the ones that got away... again. 01 CB 03 RB 04 WR 06 S 07 RB 08 CB 10 RB 12 CB 8 skill first rounders out of 12 drafts. The defense will be improved, but I fail to see how the offense will be improved with the same cast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndirish1978 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 McKelvin is terrible. McGee is made of glass. Florence isn't that good. We NEEDED a good CB and we got a guy who was arguably the best CB in the draft. WR is deep, we can get one in rd 2 or even 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Gilmore is good, but we have huge holes at OT and LB. Now we will be weeping about the ones that got away... again. This is one of the deepest drafts in history at WR. We could easily find a starting WR with our first pick tomorrow. Drafting for need is what got us in the mess we are trying to get out of now.

coldstorage5 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 (edited) Heres the deal, Its a T heavy draft. Gilmore was the top rated guy left, Many had him going to carolina at #9, so we flip flopped here. We will get a T next round, then a WR. Our D was horrible last year. Now it will be decent. Plus its a pass happy league now, so #1 rush the QB then #2 cover the receivers. YES we still need OL help. hopefully it will come.

H2o Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Gilmore is a stiff in the hips CB. Not what we needed. I hope the rest of the draft is better. Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Straw Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 I can understand the guy was surprised or maybe he is cold about his expectations to start in a crowded CB unit, don't know, Possible he was disappointed he didn't get picked by Carolina and stay in the same state. He did get smiley when they gave him the hat and he went on stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jumbalaya Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Our DBs are going to be nasty with our pass rush! Gilmore and Williams will start. Florence was pitiful last year, he will be cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kent H Jr Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 But what I know for sure is that I'm cold for the rest of the day, one downside to this "Premiere format" is that if you don't like your team's pick in the ONLY and 1st Rd of day-1, you just need to go to bed speculating if they will make up for it in Day-2.

Lurker Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Buddy pretty much telegraphed the pick again like I said before in other posts during WGR radio interview and the Draft Luncheon!! Yes he did. Not much of a surprise at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Buddy and Wanny clearly building to compete and win the division. We are not as fat a CB as some would think. We're gonna be in nickel and dime half the time and more than that against NE*. I know he'll say it anyway, but I'm guessing Gilmore was in the top 12 on their board. But let's remember. The draft isn't about the first round. Buddy will need to be smarter in the rounds to come. He's gonna make the need picks in those rounds. GO BILLS!!!
