gggbills Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I saw this on KFFL.com....hope it was not posted yet.

scribo Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 This is good. A team looking for Leinart or Cutler can move into position -- don't get any ideas, Marv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stl Bills Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 So much for my guarantee that they take Mario; although I still see it happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sven233 Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I'll bite......the 8th pick overall, a 2nd next year, and a 3rd this year... With the second pick in the 2006 NFL Draft, the Buffalo Bills select... D'BRICKASHAW FERGUSON, OT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsGuyInMalta Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Not for the price it would take to move up. New Orleans will ask for AT LEAST our first and second rounder...probably a lot more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill from NYC Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I'll bite......the 8th pick overall, a 2nd next year, and a 3rd this year... With the second pick in the 2006 NFL Draft, the Buffalo Bills select... D'BRICKASHAW FERGUSON, OT 629184[/snapback] Count me in at that price, but it probably wouldn't be enough.

booya2 Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I think if we move up to that spot, it would be to snag "Super" Mario Williams. Marv did say his top priority was DL... If he ends up landing Pickett to go along with Triplett, he may see Mario as that Bruce Smith (hopefully he's even half as good as Bruce) type pass rusher that can single handedly crash the party on opposing offenses. I wasn't happy with getting rid of big Sam, but if Marv could pull this off, I'd be a happy camper. I love D'Brick, but history has proven if you build a dominant D, which starts with the line, you can be real good, real fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erynthered Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I think Minnesota might be a player to move up, now that Culpepper is gone. Hell, how long will Brad Johnson be there. Just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mopreme Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I agree. It's important to build that DL. Mario Williams is my first choice! If the Bills can sign Pickett, then the DL will cause havoc for years to come. I'm not too thrilled about picking OL so high. Usually it takes them a while to get accustomed to the NFl, that's if they don't bust like Mike Williams. Even Robert Gallery, who was supposed to be the next best thing, is still not at the level they predicted for him. I heard that they even were thinking of moving him to guard.

But you don't have to look too far back in the Bills history where we had the #1 and #3 overall Defenses. We haven't made the playoffs in over half a decade. Dominant O-Lines dictate the pace of the entire game. IF you can make first downs and put up points, you keep the D off the field which allows you to win. If you have a good D with no Offense and you go 3 and out all the time, the D will wear down..... YOU HAVE TO CONTROL THE BALL WITH YOU O-LINE TO WIN FOOTBALL GAMES!!

N.Y. Orangeman Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I'll bite......the 8th pick overall, a 2nd next year, and a 3rd this year...

Stl Bills Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 No, instead lets give them our #8, a 4th rounder and EMO 629327[/snapback] Still not near enough, just my opinion though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gggbills Posted March 14, 2006 Author Share Posted March 14, 2006 Still not near enough, just my opinion though. 629359[/snapback] Wow, your kidding? I really do not want to see us give up any of this years first day picks. Perhaps instead of a 4th rounder, our 2nd next year. I would not mind seeing us move up, but I do not want to give away the farm to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stl Bills Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 but I do not want to give away the farm to do it. Thats why I don't think you'll be seeing us do it. Mario would be great but with as many holes as this team has we are going to need a lot of draft picks, this year and next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnakeOiler Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Based on the draft value chart: http://www.theredzone.org/2005/draft/draftvaluechart.asp the #2 overall pick is worth 2600 our #8 overal is worth 1400, our #2 is worth 500 Our top 3rd round pick is 230 So to get to #2 this year, even our 1st, 2nd AND top 3rd round pick would not do it. We'd have to give up this yrs 1st and 2nd (1900 total), AND next years 2nd (~500 +/- 100 depending on next years record). That's A LOT. I don't think it's realistic. I would not take anyone other than Leinart at #2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
