OK.. the draft just turned sour for me. Why do we need another CB?

I can understand your concern over the pick. I really can. My initial reaction was a similar preponderance as to why a CB is the biggest need on the team. As I rationalize it, you had essentially 2 players at 11 and they made a decision as to who they thought would be better. What I question (or wonder) did they try to trade back up and get another player? I thought we would see that. But, lets have a little patience and see what Jauron and the rest of the coaching staff do with these guys. I'll be right here with you calling for Jauron's head if the team continues to come out looking flat and has piss poor offensive game plans that do nothing. But, until then, we have to be positive and remain ever hopeful.

He's no Hamdan... but I'm on board the MckLovin train!

Absolutely. I could swear Schefter was peaking over the shoulders of the teams as they wrote down their selection. Every time they cut to him just prior to the announcement, he was dead on correct. And when he didn't have the scoop, Mayock was right there with his guess, that was right about 9 times out of 10. You could really tell he was updating his board as they went through with each pick. He clearly knew the players and knew the team's needs. It was actually pretty amazing to see a team so well prepared. It got to a point that Schefter would say his piece and everyone would just go... ok good pick, so Mayock tell us about this kid. They got a little out of their game in the 2nd round. But, I think the 5 minute picks may have had something to do with that. For once, I watched a show and actually felt like I was being educated and given inside information. It was a revelation. I flipped over to ESPN a few times mostly to see what Boomer would say. But by about the mid first round, it was just too sad; so it was all NFL Network from then on. ESPN would either be in commercial or have someone blabbering about something no longer pertinent. Kiper definitely looked lost in comparison to Mayock. Honestly, it was night and day between the two broadcasts. I kinda feel bad for Mayock and Schefter now though. No way they can top today's performance. They were that accurate and good. If you like the draft and don't have NFL Network... buy a new house and get a dish on it for next year. You won't regret it.

For those that hate this pick... who else would you have taken at 11? I can only think of Albert as a real alternative. Seeing as how our starters on the Oline are pretty good, I can understand not placing as high a priority on Albert (although it wouldn't have upset me at all if we got him). So who else do you select? We got the WR we needed. So what's the big deal?

That would make my draft... if he lasts a little longer and we get him. He may not be the best player or the biggest need, but I just have a feeling that him and Poz would feed off each other and could solidify our LBing corps for the next decade.

Now get Conner.

I'll take that over a commercial.

That's the magic I'd like to see them pull out of their hat somehow. WR now, then trade back up for Conner.

Excellent point. Maybe the Bills' brass made the right call?

OK.. it's official. Schefter and Mayock are thebest tandem in the league. Dead on all day. For those of you without NFL Network. I feel sorry. They've made ESPN look like a second rate channel.

If the WR's keep falling maybe you do take a Conner at 41 and then trade back for WR???

wow 3 picks (including next year's #1) to get Otah???

Nice to see you still typin' Bill. I must admit when the pick went down, my first concern was not for the future of the Bills' organization but, rather, for the health of your heart/ulcer/hair.

Don't underestimate dumb guys that just do what they're told. McLovin... get me the ball back. Get me the ball back! I want that Ball!!! AHHHHHHH!

...you forgot to add that the guy should be available in the 4th round.

Or College Scout.

I feel like I did when they selected Whitner. I guess its good. I just see alot more pressing needs than CB.

I love it. They obviously wanted Rivers and had to settle for the #2 LB.

Gotta be... he looked giddy on the phone.

Mayock says... definitely to get Harvey.

OK.... now it gets interesting.

Who does Mayock have us drafting? So far, he's 5 for 5.

Given the number of good RBs on the Raiders, how can they pick another one? Glad I'm not a Raider fan.

That's why NFL Network is better, no commercials yet.
