jcbillsfan Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 seems to be there will be good value in round 2 on a bunch of wide outs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BILLS #1 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 With the 8th pick in the 2013 NFL draft the Buffalo Bills select JUSTIN HUNTER , WR. Tennesse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bills Fan888 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I'd be very surprised to hear his name called at 8 but not at all in the 2nd round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San-O Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 If the Bills had any brains in their heads, any, they would trade down or out of the 1st round. They don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Hammersticks Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I like Hunter, but it's my understanding that they really like Robert Woods from USC (not that I could see either of their names being called at #8). It is my understanding that they have met with Woods 4 times during the off season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bills Fan888 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 If the Bills had any brains in their heads, any, they would trade down or out of the 1st round. They don't. Why do you say that when they've already said they would like to trade down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldTimer1960 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Why do you say that when they've already said they would like to trade down. Because there is no need to reflect reality when you are trying to blindly blast the Bills' decision makers! (Note: sarcasm ON. I don't subscribe to the view that the Bills' front-office is inept, stupid, moronic, etc. I happen to think that the current front-office personnel have significantly upgraded the Bills roster talent. Yes, they have "missed" on Torrell Troup - they should have "known" that he would have back problems and Aaron Williams - while this depends on how he does at S, if they'd have called him a Safety when they drafted him folks might not have been blasting this pick as much...)

Troup didn't look good even before he got hurt. Sometimes bad players' careers are cut short due to injury, too. 2.) They've gotten virtually nothing out of the #34 overall pick after 2 full years. Doesn't matter whether you call him a CB or S, that's worthy of skewering. (Particularly in light of the fact that the team really needs a QB and 2 good ones were picked at #35 and #36.)

OldTimer1960 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 1.) Troup didn't look good even before he got hurt. Sometimes bad players' careers are cut short due to injury, too. 2.) They've gotten virtually nothing out of the #34 overall pick after 2 full years. Doesn't matter whether you call him a CB or S, that's worthy of skewering. (Particularly in light of the fact that the team really needs a QB and 2 good ones were picked at #35 and #36.) DTs often take a couple of years to show their stuff in the NFL and Troup has been healthy only his rookie year. Look, I don't want to completely let the Bills off the hook for the pick, but he has A LOT of what you look for in a DT: strength, effort, reasonable athleticism... Nobody could have predicted that he'd get hurt. Aaron WIlliams falls into the same category as the OL about whom they say "try him at LT until he proves he can't play it and then move him to RT/G". Of course, not all of those guys pan out and it is no certainty that Aaron Williams will be a good safety. But, I think his skills will translate well there - he was a below average cover corner, but should be a good coverage safety and he does play the run with passion. I just choose to "put myself in the Bills' shoes" and give them the benefit of the doubt. I also try to be realistic with regard to the true success rate of picks by round. Even at the top or round 2, you statistically only have about a 65% probability of finding a good 5+ year starter.

3rdand12 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 (edited) not at eight if they have any brains. After reading the pre draft luncheon transcript thoroughly i am fairly leaning towards , these guys are dialed in and full on for the draft. Nix is the jokester but his boys are in "game on " mode and have done the work. like the kid though. love to get more picks, put us in postion to have him on the Bills. At 8 you take Tavon Austin if you go WR. Most value as a playmaker that creates mismatch and fear. period. oh yes. about the brains. they do. and more than a couple. keeps the jokester honest.
