Typical TBD Guy Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 I counted 21 total. Let me know if I missed any others.

Tom Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Curious the know how that stacks up against others teams draftees.... I'm thinking it's not that good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offside Number 76 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 You forgot Travis Henry, RB, 2001 (Leavenworth). Kidding. Very interesting list. I'm not sure what conclusions to draw, or whether there are any, but hell, it's definitely interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billistic Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Jim Leonhard (UDFA) went from the Ravens to the Jets. Jabari Greer (UDFA) is with the Saints (ouch), Jason Peters (UDFA) is with the Eagles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Jose Bills Fan Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Agree, very mediocre... Nate's the only one I miss. I'll take Winfield over Nate. I agree. Winfield over Nate IMO. Billistic with an actual contribution (apparently). Impressive list of undrafted free agents by the Bills. Better than their draftees arguably. It's hard to evaluate without comparing it to other teams lists but the feeling is of poor drafting. Thanks for compiling the list, McKinley.

The Dean Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 You would, fellow midget & all. Indeed Actually, the biggest thing Winfield and I have in common is, when are looking to take someone down, we rarely miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixxxer Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Of that list I would welcome back, Winfield, Bannan and Sammy Morris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bills_fan Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 May show tht the Bills have been more successful with UDFA than they have in the draft. Thinking the same thing. I wouldn't have a problem dealing draft picks if I was the Bills for proven NFL talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaise321 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 At this point, I would rather have Crowell than Ellison on the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsVet Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 I know the draft is a crap shoot, but hell, I'm starting to see a pattern and the one common denominator with all this is Modrak. The great mystery with Modrak is how much did people pay attention to him from 01-08. I suspect he was given more control over the draft selections this year, but certainly during TD and the first two years of DJ (I'm not equating the two regimes) he didn't have as much say in who was drafted. I'm not referring to not selecting Cutler, I can understand why that decision was made. But he allegedly was a McCargo proponent, though other than that I'm not sure. I still think the draft can be more than a crap-shoot. How many picks does Polian, Jerry Reese, Kevin Colbert, Belichick, AJ Smith, Ozzie Newsome, and a few others get wrong. Their percentage of hits isn't 100%, but it's better than many teams. Talent evaluators are not all created equal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ans4e64 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 At this point, I would rather have Crowell than Ellison on the team. You mean the guy that still can't practice because he can't go 5 mins without having to drain fluid from his knee? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billrooter Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 I'll take Winfield over Nate. In a heartbeat, winfield was my favorite player, pound for pound has to still be one of the toughest guys in the league and was awesome vs the run!
