Oneonta Buffalo Fan 2 Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Comment here..... ESPN seems to favor the pick and his highlights do show he's actually not half bad. I think this might be a sleeper in disguise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BEAST MODE BABY! Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 I know it's the 6th round, but what the hell? We took 3 cb's last year. What's the freakin' point? Why not take a DT or an oline player? Yuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lori Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Never can have too many DBs ... http://www.nfl.com/draft/2009/profiles/cary-harris?id=80646 Analysis Positives: Adequate size for the position. ... Instinctive. ... Rarely out of position. ... Good zone defender. Reads the quarterback's eyes and is quick to close. ... Smooth transition and has the agility to mirror receiver's breaks. ... Competes for the jump ball. ... Tough player. ... Aggressive in run support. ... Evades blockers well, but isn't afraid to take them on if it means getting to the ballcarrier. ... Reliable open-field tackler. ... Breaks down in space well and delivers a solid blow. Negatives: Questionable deep speed. ... Lacks the late burst to recover if beaten initially. ... Seems content making the secure stop rather than going for the interception. ... Some durability concerns. Underwent surgery on a sprained finger in spring 2007. Underwent surgery on both ankles in spring '08. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DANCOCK Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 im not sure why you guys get so pissy about the Bills Drafting DB players. last couple years this is the position i recall getting injured alot on the Bills roster and cost us some games.

Christopher Capolupo Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 He could have been the best available on their board, but that doesn't take away from it being annoying. I am just trying to figure out if it's more annoying or just as annoying as LSI feeling the need to be "the one" to post it first and say comment here... I think we figured that out already bro.

Brandon Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 I realize its only a 6th round pick, but good grief.

Steely Dan Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 The first pick I hate. This guy has a history of injuries. The guy pulled a hamstring while running the 40 at the combine for cryin out loud! They already drafted a ST guy. I'll be surprised if he replaces Wendling. IMO, this is a totally wasted pick. I understand the best available player thing but at some point need should take a slight edge over best available. I also find it hard to believe that this was the best dude left on the draft board.

gus2378 Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 NFL.com scouts profile says: Good zone defender. Reads the quarterback's eyes and is quick to close. (Fits the defense, I guess) Tough player. ... Aggressive in run support. ... Evades blockers well, but isn't afraid to take them on if it means getting to the ballcarrier. ... Reliable open-field tackler. ... Breaks down in space well and delivers a solid blow. (all good stuff) BUT Seems content making the secure stop rather than going for the interception. (So he should fit right in, since this is the one trait just about every Bills corner has shared for about 10 years) I know you have to draft guys that fit your system but .... It's 50-50 at best that this will still be the system a year from now. If they do not get better, the rebuilding will be all that much harder with all these zone corners/small safeties/small LBs/DEs that can't play the run ... just sayin' ...

Sisyphean Bills Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Who'd they really lose in the secondary? McKelvin, McGee, Simpson, Corner, Whitner, Wilson, Florence, Fox, Scott, Youboty, and Wendling are still under contract. Now they added 3 more guys.

lets_go_bills Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Oh c'mon. Enough with the DBs. Seriously. What the hell. This looks like a ST/Bobby April pick. Ugh, I hate it. Stupid pick, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yuck. The Bills have had very good luck with OL and DL in late rounds in the recent history, stick too it IMO. Where does he fit into the roster though? We have 5 very good CBs already. Maybe playing safety? We already added one of them, so Im not too sure what the plan is, may be this years K.Kox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's any good, someone will just sign him off the practice squad and this pick will have been flushed down the toilet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatInJax Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 I don't understand how they feel that was the best value for us right now, I mean I know they want to stay true to their draft board, but at some point you also have to stay true to your roster and who has the best shot at making it and then staying on it.

BillsZubaz Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 He is a 3rd round value, so i can see why they took him in the 6th. So do I. Its not that he wasn't a good value. It's how many DB's do we need going into camp? We now have: 1. Terrence McGee 2. Leodis McKelvin 3. Ashton Youboty 4. Drayton Florence 5. Reggie Corner 6. Dustin Fox 7. Cary Harris AT CB 1. Donte Whitner 2. Brian Scott 3. Ko Simpson 4. George Wilson 5. John Wendling 6. Jairus Byrd At Safety Then we have two former safeties who are trying to be made into smaller linebackers/Special Teamers in Jon Corto and Nic Harris. Am I the only one thinking this is excessive?
