But Oakland then traded ahead of you and took LeFevour, made an insane offer for McNabb, and kidnapped Lynch.

Soon. In one of the simulations he went to Cleveland late in this round. Do you see him as a RT or LT?

Sebastian Vollmer. Good parallel. Vollmer had 8 starts this year, and we'll now need a RT at the very least with Butler retiring. Veldheer is the best choice in the round for RT.

Note that from #42 to 53, New England* will be drafting 3 players. Cheaters.

We had him at #56, he goes in this area now (~#78)

Veldheer's green, but could be a very good pick in a year or so. Here's the best pic of him: Veldheer

You took JAX's trade and passed on Bradford so now you have 2 picks to make. Oakland took LeFevour with its 69th pick (bummer). The poll is multiple choice, so you are voting for a #72 pick and a #75 pick. Oakland wants one of our picks to get ahead of Miami to take an OLB they want, Greg Hardy. You cannot take Hardy AND make the trade as a stipulation to Oakland. You get their #85 and #103 if you agree. San Diego has offered their #91 at the end of this round for Marshawn Lynch. You may vote 3 times instead of twice if you choose to do that trade. Remember-- you have 5 more picks after this (#104, 136, 168, 182, 200) and Rome wasn't built in a day. And you're on the clock. Astro

We're taking DT Terrence Cody from Alabama with our 2nd rounder in both scenarios (Bradford/Cody and Davis/Cody), and ...Mea Culpa. Buffalo gets the #75 3rd rounder for the trade down to #11, not #50. That's Round 3---our #72 pick and JAX's #75. You'll see those 2 picks soon! Davis/Cody will be a lot of wings. Possibly a shortage in Buffalo. Astro

I think what we'll see is that regardless of who we take in the first, Mount Cody is a good choice in the second. I'll predict Cody and Capers will be 1 and 2 if you took Bradford, and if you already took your OT with Davis, you'll go Cody and ILB.

What I learned by doing this is that essentially the same players are available at #41 now; the only difference is that in Scenario #1 you have Bradford, and Scenario #2 Bradford falls to Arizona and you have Anthony Davis and an extra #50 pick. By the Way, You're on the Clock.

In RD2, I will simulate both a Bradford selection and a trade with Houston. Astro

Bulaga-Bradford in the first? Give up your second and next year's 4th for #26. I ran the simulation, and Bulaga went at #8, so it gave me Campbell.

Isn't this like writing the answers to the quiz on your palm?

We'll get a veteran and a developmental guy. http://nflmocks.com/2010/02/11/buffalo-bil...n-a-veteran-qb/

You'd have to live in Rochester and know the writer. Rochester D&C actually pays him more if his idea is lamer than Bob Matthews'.

Someone has to fall. Pick any 8 guys you think will go before we pick, and I can show you talent at our pick. It's not a no-brainer, but I feel better having Nix do it.

http://www.buffalobills.com/team/roster.html Click on the Age column and you have 15 guys on the wrong side of 30. We can start with them.

With one switched vote, it's 10 to 9 in favor of a trade to #11 with Jacksonville. I'll leave this up until after supper and see if we get more of a majority.

When you look at your draft, one wonders if this isn't the best way to build a "new" team, especially a new defense. How awesome would it be to have Cam Thomas AND Linval Joseph AND Corey Wootton AND Eric Norwood?!?! Thanks for illustrating!

This makes it interesting... http://www.nfldraftbible.com/Latest/marsha...tosunny-sd.html

OT. Saffold blocked Greg Hardy and Rahim Alem all week in the Shrine Game practices. Here's a good interview with Saffold. http://chi.scout.com/2/947078.html

Don't worry about receiver yet. This is a deep receiver class like the last 2 years. (Austin Collie RD4#127 last year, Garcon RD6#205 the year before)

Saffold is the O-Line guy Johnson coached. He'll likely end up as a round 3 pick. He did well in the Shrine Game. Anyone think it's Saffold in the 3rd?

Old Yeller was KILLED?
