Bill Brasky Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 With the 11th pick in the 2009 NFL Draft, the Buffalo Bills select Andre Smith, Offensive Tackle, Alabama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaninATL Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Well I'll be the first to play devil's advocate and say it: I'm probably wrong again but I'm not totally convinced that the Broncos will covet a quarterback. Here's why: Kyle Orton can be their bridge quarterback for a year or two. Denver has torn down their team a la the Kansas City Chiefs last year and are under no pressure to win immediately. Everyone knows they are rebuilding both offense and defense. Secondly, wonder boy Josh McDaniels allegedly did a great job developing Matt Cassell last year. Now he has the opportunity to do the same with Chris Simms, a guy who hasn't gotten a fair shake yet due to his speenectomy spleenectomy and Gruden's strange compulsive quarterback games. So that's why I feel QB is not a slam dunk for Denver. As for if Cutler had ended up with the Jets, it might have been a great move for them or it could have been one of the spectacular train wrecks in recent NFL history. We'll never know. fixed....(I had a spleenectomy, so I had to jump in and correct it... ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerball Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 And yes, as I posted in other posts, I think our slot has become red hot for a trade and we could parlay it into a nice bounty... Our slot doesn't become interesting until we are on the clock...which could be very interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Jose Bills Fan Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 And hopefully Berman talks to the cab driver. I don't think he has in the last two years though. Am I right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papazoid Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 if i was the Bronco's i would stick with Orton & Simms at QB and use both my first round picks on Defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffaloaggie Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I am actually more concerned now that Freeman might go to the Jets. I think he has major size, good arm, and mobility. He'll be better than Cutler in a couple years. Freeman disappeared at K State against good teams.

PushthePile Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 if i was the Bronco's i would stick with Orton & Simms at QB and use both my first round picks on Defense. Kyle Orton is a decent QB. He will do okay in Denver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewildrabbit Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Sanchez moved up on many boards after his USC pro day,lots now have him ahead of Stafford. Mike Mayock has stated he thinks Sanchez might end up being the best of this years QB class. If Sanchez is there at #11 I'd hope the Bills take him and trade him or trade that pick for more picks,clearly the Redskins went after Cutler so they are not happy with Jason Campbell. on another note, I'd think that Denver would be better off just taking Freeman with the 12th pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ASTROBOT what would the Jet's have to give us in return to make it a fair trade, assuming that this year's 1st rounder is part of the deal?

Cereal Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Two questions I have: What do you think we could get from the Jets for our #11 pick? (if they want to get one of the QB's before DEN does) What do you think we could get from the Broncos for our #11 pick? (if they want to ensure no one else trades up to get a QB before their #12) Obviously, this would depend a bunch on what goes down in the first ten picks on draft day.
