Its also the question of #42 overall vs. UDFA. Don't get me wrong. Kiko could/should be in the running for Defensive Player of the Year if his stats continue down this road (league leader in tackles, maybe another INT or 2 and a few FF get him there IMO) let alone Defensive Rookie of the Year. But that's production you expect (eventually) from a high draft pick.

 

Draft placing was irrelevant to San Jose Bills Fan's original premise.

Who is the Bills best player regardless of compensation?

.....and who is the Bills best dollar for dollar value?

 

It was all about ability/performance and dollars cost.

 

 

 

That aside, expectations are generally too high from fans.....and yours are no different. If one should expect that every 2nd(and 1st) round pick to play at a probowl level......that would be 64 players every single year who are drafted that theoretically should become top notch players.

 

There is a massive difference between hoping a player becomes a probowl player & expecting a player to become a probowl player. Most 1st/2nd rounders are lucky to have an 8+ year career in the NFL let alone become stars.

Orakpo + Gronk + R Wilson

 

Maybin + Troup + Graham

 

 

just....wow.

This comparison isn't correct. If one team drafted all three then you cold compare. Why don't you criticize all the other teams that didn't draft Orakpo, Gronk, and Wilson and name the three players they did draft?
