BillsFanForever19 Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 2002 - With the 4th pick in the 2nd round (pretty much a first), TD drafts WR Josh Reed. At the time we didn't really need a WR and it floored a lot of people. On the night of the draft, TD makes a trade with New England for (then) superstar QB Drew Bledsoe! 2003 - With the 23rd pick in the First Round, TD drafts RB Willis McGahee. We had Travis Henry who was coming off a Pro-Bowl season. 2004 - After selecting WR Lee Evans with the 13th pick overall, TD trades back into the first round and selects QB J.P. Losman. What will TD surprise us with this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

envirojeff Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 I've said before, TD has no fear. That's what I love about the guy. It may not pan out all the time, but you gotta love the style! Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d_wag Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 i am not expecting much flash from the bills on draft day, at least in comparison to prior years.......a henry trade will or won't go down (i put it at 50/50 at this point) and TD will draft the best player available in his mind in the 2nd round regardless of where we are picking.......OL, DL, DB, WR, RB, QB, TE, LB, K -- doesn't matter, best player available....same for the 3rd, and the 4th - you get the idea........

BillsFanForever19 Posted April 14, 2005 Author Share Posted April 14, 2005 you really believed TD would draft a RB in the 1st round during the '03 draft? 304918[/snapback] That's a good point and i'm all for the "drafting the best available player" thing. But not after drafting J.P. Losman in the 1st round last year. Not after we named him the starter and he hasn't even played yet to evaluate. Not after signing Kelly Holcomb. I don't think it's fair to compare situations. Now if that QB also is a WR or a TE named Matt Jones, i'm all for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once again, do you really believe that TD will draft a QB in the 2nd round? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once again, do you really believe that TD will draft a QB in the 2nd round? 304932[/snapback] i don't think he will.......i expect the bills will be choosing another position in 2nd round....... but i do think it is a possiblity if he deems a QB the "best player available" at that spot.....

ganesh Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 This year if he can pull off a trade for Nate Clements then it will be the coupe of this draft espceially if he can get one of those 7 to 12 picks in the 1st round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
