In space no one can hear Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 Lynch fits the offense we claim to want to run very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yasin's BILLS Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 Well Quite frankly I don't think were going to get either of them, I think were going to draft CB Leon Hall from Michigan the guy is a sick corner. But since I got to stick to the topic I would go with lynch. Adrian Peterson didn't even play last year so it would be like drafting another willis mcgahee.

Actually, Peterson did play in seven games last year, including Oklahoma's Bowl game and rushed for 1,012 yards and 12 TDs on the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 Teams usually shy away from players with a long injury history in the top half of round 1. With his injury history, I think its certainly possible that he could fall to the Bills at 12, though I still consider it unlikely. Still, if the right teams (mainly Houston and Cleveland) feel that he represents too great of an injury risk, he could easily fall out of the top 10 in this draft.

Pyrite Gal Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 The two choices are insufficient for a number of reasons some of which are already stated: 1. There are other RBs besides these two who one can make as good a case a you can for these two in terms of filling our overall team needs (ex. use the #12 to buttress the OL/DL and draft someone like a Hunt lower down). 2. The Bills likely have to make the fatal choice of giving up resources to move up to get Peterson and when they do A-Train wants to start so he goes (unless he estimates he can beat out a rookie since even great rookies are a bit of a crapshoot) elsewhere and we spend a lot of time not only rooting for Peterson but praying for his health otherwise Shaud is our RB. 3, The Bills can possibly trade down a number of slots (maybe even 5+ according to some mocks) and still get Lynch. This formulation bodes well for us in that we have more resources but underscores the point that despite some on TSW frothing at the mouth for Lynch he is by the pundit consensus not an elite player who would get a top 10 pick in most drafts and this one is not overwhelming strong in terms of talent, I think NEITHER is a pretty clear good choice in this case.

Brandon Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 Lynch is not Mcgahee....on or off the field...they are complete opposites This is just my opinion, but Willis McGahee always reminded me of a slightly better version of Antowain Smith.

At least in this case, it appears Marshawn Lynch is guilty until he proves himself innocent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't even arrested. The DA, who is known for getting maximum punishments for domestic abusers, said it seemed as if someone was trying to get into Lynch’s pockets just before his big payday. By all accounts from coaches and teammates, Lynch was the team' locker-room and on-field leader. He was known for being very supportive of his teammates and community.

Lurker Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 Neither. I think it will be a 2nd or 3rd round type that offers a lot of versatility in the passing game, al' la Thuman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
