Comments? Welcome to the board. OL is a "very small need?" How do you like us right now at OC and RG? "You can never have enough DBs?" The Bills draft 1st day DBs by the boat load. Has this resulted in playoff appearances? I am hoping that the Bills trade down and gather more 1st day picks this year and next, so we can be a strong football team. Big guys win football games.

Flbillsfan#1 Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 I would take Irons over Bush in the 2nd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsVet Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 With so many positions of need, I think trading down is a good idea. I won't speculate on which teams would deal with us, but I'm sure we could collect 1 or 2 first day selctions in making a move down in the first. I can't see Buffalo completely getting out of the first. So many people seem to be high on Youboty after seeing him play CB in one game. K. Thomas has never been a starter in his NFL career. Still, I'd rather see a LB, RB, and DT selected before CB. If Youboty is so good, the Bills won't be spending a first day pick at DB. If they do, it tells me Youboty isn't the sure thing some people think he is. LB is simply thin on this team. One injury with the current roster and we've got to look at Coy Wire or Mario Haggan being a starter. A frightening thought. And for all those Wire lovers, he's never played the position in the pros beyond a few games last season. And that was out of necessity. All of this though is worthless based on what happens to Spikes. If he returns at a high level we're able to concentrate on other areas and pick a LB later, perhaps Day 2. DT is still not something I'm thinking is going to be better next season. Hoping and wishing Kyle Williams can play the 1 consistenyl is just that. We've got to have a bigger body who can absorb blockers for those LB"s. Tripplett at 3 can't do it himself, and we saw that nearly every game last season outside of perhaps the Jacksonville game. McCargo as the X factor worries me with that broken foot problem. We've got to get some more depth at DT. RB in Round 2 or 3 is almost necessary now. Buffalo probably wants a young speedster to complement A. Thomas. Pittman from Oh St. comes to mind but I'm not sure he's there in the 3rd. Then again, who knows at this point.

Heat89 Posted March 19, 2007 Author Share Posted March 19, 2007 Fowler at center seems to me to played at a capible level. I myslef find it hard to evaluate linemen as an individual. He was brought in last year and had time to learn the system. While an upgrade would be nice i think we have more pressing needs than to address a postion we just recently threw a bad-aid on. RG is a position that is up in the air right now but i belive that through the volume of draft picks spent on the line last year along with the free agents that have been brought in someone should be able to plug that hole. We have stock piled over the past year in OL-men, while they may not be steller hopefully as an entire unit they will perform dominatly without being dominant at every position. Taking a CB makes sense, we have lost our #1 corner. Optimsticlly i hope that players on the current roster can fill the void left there. The fact remains that we only have 4 corners and those 4 corners acounted for 0 ints. I don't think we need to find new starting CB's i just think some new blood in the secodary could do some help.
