ROCCEO Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 I'd still rather have michael bush over marshawn lynch, but I guess theres always antonio pittman. God no, please dont say that. yeah and most around here wanted to trade picks away for him.........NICE! I bet his stock drops like a rock now, I think he would be around in the 5th round on. Of course this is when the reports were saying he would be able to work out at his pro day next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apuszczalowski Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 I don't want to pick a RB who has an injury history, PERIOD, unless it's a 6th or 7th rounder. Well, thats great, I'm glad you don't But I believe there are other people who work for the Bills that are payed to evaluate players performances, injury history, and how well they will fit on the team better then us fans. If the Bills were to take a chance on him in the 4th, or 5th round I wouldn't complain. He is a RB who was projected to be atleast a second rounder who dropped due to injury. He could becom a great steal in the draft if your patient with his recovery. At the time, McGahee was a good pick (not great because there were bigger needs) but he was a guy that was supposed to go in the top 5 if he didn't get hurt. He slid down to the Bills and they took a chance on him, unfortunately he didn't repay the Bills by giving it his all on the field like he did in his recovery, and decided to cost on his name and college career. if he stayed motivated, and the Bills had a ecent o-line, its possible he would be a top 5 back in the league.

We can use that phathom 5th rounder on Bush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartyBall4Buffalo Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 God no, please dont say that. It was mostly said in jest. Marshawn Lynch just doesn't impress me. I dont see anything extrodinary about the guy to waste a top 12 pick on, and pittman while he never was an everydown player has some nice speed when he gets into the open field. I could live with him splitting carries with atrain for a year and get a franchise caliber back in next years draft. It's not my ideal scenairo but Id rather have pittman splitting carries then corey dillon, chris brown or god forbid kevan barlow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tortured Soul Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 That sucks for him. I would imagine that he's now carrying an undraftable grade for at least a few teams. His best option probably would have been to petition the NCAA for a medical hardship and returned for another season. But by signing an agent, he likely doesn't have that option anymore. Think of all the money he lost by staying in school an extra year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oneonta Buffalo Fan Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Why? Considering how he runs and how he's an injury risk I think there are better options, like Hunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
