John from Riverside Posted October 25, 2009 Author Share Posted October 25, 2009 and after as well.......I wish people would understand that you have to give draft picks a little bit of time to get up to speed....... Maybin will come around as well......he was a split hair away from a blocked punt and a sack today....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bills Fan888 Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 If Byrd keeps this play up I could see him being defensive player of the year. 5 ints in 3 games is great. I just hope he can pick off Brady two times when we play the Pats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ax4782 Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Byrd looks like he is the definition of a ball hawk. He's always in the play, and he did more than make interceptions today. He had a TD saving tackle in the fourth quarter on Steve Smith and was involved in that stop on fourth an one. Buffalo's secondary really looks strong, and Byrd is looking like the best pick of this years draft for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm amazed at how well the secondary has played given that the Bills D generates very little pass rush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only that but there was that tackle on 4th down that completely reminded me of Troy Polamalu (can't remember, but I think it was a play Troy did against the Titans in the season opener).

Doc Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 This was the pick that was trashed mightily on draft day.... But hey, Everette Brown got 2 tackles and a QB hurry today! And because of him, the Panthers will be giving their top-5 pick next year to the 49'ers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alphadawg7 Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 This was the pick that was trashed mightily on draft day.... Not by me, I loved the pick (of course I was flamed quite a bit for saying so). SF said they were not going to trade their pick for Car 1st next year if we didnt take Byrd...

BillsWatch Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 Too bad Byrd did not have that surgery when he was not eligible for mini-camps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thoner7 Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Yea lets just hope opposing Qbs continue to be very inaccurate. I am not discrediting Byrd, because he has made a lot of good plays and has outperformed our other safeties, but some of his interceptions would have been big time completions if it were an accurate pass.

I am not discrediting Byrd, because he has made a lot of good plays and has outperformed our other safeties, but some of his interceptions would have been big time completions if it were an accurate pass. right...like Ed Reed and Troy Polamalu NEVER get interceptions because QB's overthrow their receivers... both those int's against the Jets were great plays...the first pick was just crazy athleticism, picking off a pass after bring tipped while diving thru the air...on the second one he just outjumped and outtimed Braylon Edwards for the ball... when you have good instincts and are in the proper position, you make plays look easy...when you aren't, you either don't make the plays or make an otherwise easy play look tough... Am I to believe that opposing QB's have made more bad throws the past 3 games than they have in the entire time Donte Whitner's been starting for the Bills? Byrd has more int's in 3 games than Whitner has in his career... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No QB - No Bueno Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Yea lets just hope opposing Qbs continue to be very inaccurate. I am not discrediting Byrd, because he has made a lot of good plays and has outperformed our other safeties, but some of his interceptions would have been big time completions if it were an accurate pass. I agree with what you say, but the kid caught a couple of knuckle-ball tips and out-fought an opponent for a third. He seems to have awareness and H/E coordination that the other dbs don't have. His future is bright if he improves on his coverage skills and keeps working the angles properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
