Big C Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Have we counted the number of first and second round picks on this team? Offense: First round: EJ Sammy CJ Wood C. Williams Second round: Woods Cordy Cyrus Defense: First round: Mario Dareus Hughes Lawson Rivers McKelvin Gilmore Second round: A. Williams Branch Kiko Spikes That's quite a lot! I wonder how that compares to the rest of the league. Seems like a theoretically good way to build a roster and we've seen with guys Hughes and Lawson that sometimes a different team/scheme can make a huge difference with that kind of talent.

It is definitely on the high side. Let's hope that it translates to wins!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uticaclub Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 JP Losman, John McCargo & Aaron Maybin were first round picks. Nobody would be the excited about them on their team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utica Club was crappy beer but the cream ale was okay. Neither was worth a screen name spot in the first or second round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoho Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Utica Club was crappy beer but the cream ale was okay. Neither was worth a screen name spot in the first or second round. What if the Bills had drafted Maximus Super in 1972. It was like beer on steroids and was big for a few years. Definitely better than Tony Mandrich. It was made by Utica Club. What did you want at the time? Schlitz? Schlitz was like the Ryan Leaf of beers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 And our best player of the last 5 yrs was undrafted (Fred). Mike Williams would have been 1st or 2nd round if he wasn't such a head case. The talent is there, we just need them all to play to their potential Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nanker Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 You can never win a Superbowl if your LOT isn't drafted in the 1st (or possibly 2nd) round. [/wallwizardsofwizdom] Same goes for QB[/wwow] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is actually impressive but too bad the results have not been. The D is loaded with talent for sure. The O all really comes down to whether EJ steps forward.

BillsVet Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 (edited) What difference does their draft status make now? It's a lot of symbolism over substance at this point, particularly for those who are on their second or third team like Rivers, Lawson, and C. Williams.
