Losing any good player sucks. How they respond to losing a good player is even more important than losing the player himself.
If the Bills use the 8 M to sign a LB and a G, who both make the Pro Bowl in 2013, the Bills are better. If the Bills take an OG in the draft who sets the standard for being a modern NFL Guard and is destined for the HOF, the Bills are better.
Granted, Nix has not been the best GM. But I'm willing to entertain the possibility that the FO changes actually were changes and the Bills might turn the corner this time.
It beats pissing and moaning (and I know that I've done plenty). I do, however, reserve the right to P&M if the Bills take a CB at 8 in the draft.
