Cornerville Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Watched the entire PSU/UT game yesterday and for that matter the entire Nittany Lion career of Paul Posluszny, I would LOVE to see this guy in a Bills uniform come April. Having said that, I leave this to some better experts here on the board: 1. What do you think of Posluszny fitting in the Cover 2 scheme? Too small? 2. How high is Posluszny on the draft boards? 3. With Fletcher most likely leaving, and considering Paul Posluszny's speed, I think he would be a great fit and a fan favorite for years to come.

The Jokeman Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Watched the entire PSU/UT game yesterday and for that matter the entire Nittany Lion career of Paul Posluszny, I would LOVE to see this guy in a Bills uniform come April.

With Fletcher most likely leaving, and considering Paul Posluszny's speed, I think he would be a great fit and a fan favorite for years to come. 1. If I've learned anything about the cover 2 this year it's about discipline. As it seems as long as players are smart enough to fill their gaps and not stray they can be very successful. Also strong tackling helps as well which definately fits Posluszny's mold. In terms of size, The Colts OLBs are quite smaller both being in the 6-0 228# mold, the Bucs aren't much bigger at 6-1 230# and of course the Bears' are a little bigger at 6-1 240# so one could say at 6-2 238# Paul would fit right in. 2. NFL Draftcountdown.com ranks him as the best OLB in the draft and #7 overall. 3. If Fletcher leaves then we should be looking at MLBs and the best according to NFL Draftcountdown.com that be Patrick Willis who ranks as the #11th overalll.

He did nothing to impress me against Tenn yesterday... got caught up in the wash a lot and looks small to me..... just an opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lori Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 He did nothing to impress me against Tenn yesterday... got caught up in the wash a lot and looks small to me..... just an opinion Playing inside because he was asked to. Lot of sites still project him to the outside. Smart? Academic All-American. Again. And I'd be lining up to by a Poz jersey ten seconds after we drafted him. But then, I'm insanely biased toward Penn State LBs wearing #31... Twenty years ago TONIGHT... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonzo1105 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Patrick Willis is a better LB and a better fit for the Bills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloWings Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 But then, I'm insanely biased toward Penn State LBs wearing #31... Twenty years ago TONIGHT... Greatest college football game I remember watching. I think Posluszny would be perfect for Buffalo....it's hard to go very wrong with a Penn St. linebacker.

Lori Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Lavar Arrington. That would be three-consecutive-Pro-Bowls LaVar Arrington? Not too bad until he blew out his knee. (Told you I was biased, even though LA didn't wear #31... ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 id be happy with Paul Posluszny at 12 if theres no way we can trade down and get him, but then again, it would stick to what marv and the boys have been doing. ill happily sit and listen to all the "draftniks" laugh at us for picking someone too early, and then watch them start the entire season as a rookie. and play well! again!

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 I'm a State fan, and I'd rather have Dan Connor. Think he's a better fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUFFALOTONE Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Not a Pozlusy fan. I would rather see Patrick Willis or Buster Davis. Guys that may not have great size but fly to the ball and make plays. PP is not the same after that knee injury. IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPTheRealDeal07 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 I actually started a post a week or so ago about not wanting this guy, there are far better linebackers and lets be honest, we have the 12th pick, if we take this guy I officially wont be a fan. He wont be around in round 2 either, so lets not talk about him anymore. In order, we need a DT, OG, WR,LB,CB...Subject to change if Clements bounces and free agency Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornerville Posted January 3, 2007 Author Share Posted January 3, 2007 I'm a State fan, and I'd rather have Dan Connor. Think he's a better fit. State fan here too JSP...I believe Connor is a Junior (I could be wrong though)....heck why not draft both 2 straight years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tennesseeboy Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 let me pull this from my ngata quotes all last year..... If he isn't a Lineman...if he weighs less than 320...the hell with him!!!!!! Let's say it again...STOP THE F-ING RUN...not five yards down the field, not seven yards down the field...stop it at or before the line of scrimmage. DEFENSIVE TACKLE children...DEFENSIVE TACKLE....Then offensive gaurd and maybe center. Big ol fat guys....pat williams, sam adams, ted washington types....WE GO NOWHERE next year without them.

That would be the ideal, but how likely is that to happen considering we traded up to draft McCargo last year and then took Williams later on? Not saying I don't want a DT, I'm just trying to look @ this from the organization's point of view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuile Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 PSU fan as well. POZ might be at 12 because, despite a good season at a new postion, he came slow off his knee injury. I agree, we do need to stop the run, but POZ would be a guy Marv, who likes hard-working; character players, might have a hard time saying no too.

JStranger76 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Wouldn't be a fan of the pick at all. I' wouldn't mind Levi Brown in a trade down or Brown the RB in the 2nd. I'd like Branch or Okoye at DT!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marauderswr80 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 If Patrick Willis and Paul P are on the boards when we pick and if the Bills indeed want a LB with that pick, they pick Willis, hes a better fit for this defense. His speed is second to none at LBer.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
