  1. Sounds good to me. We'll know in about 10 minutes.
  2. If a post-draft trade occurs, I think they'll probably get a pick next year instead of player-for-player.
  3. I think Everett and Geisinger are both excellent picks and both could be future starters. Everett, in particular, has the potential to be a very good NFL TE, not bad for 3rd round pick in a bad draft. I also think the Parrish pick is a good one. He gives the Bills one more dangerous kick returner and he'll also be a nightmare for the opposing third CB to cover. Preston may turn out to be a good pick if the Bills know something that the scouting agencies don't (and they probably do; for a 'slow' player, his agility times at the combine were pretty good). I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt since they brought him in for a pre-draft workout. The Eric King pick is the only one I'm really not too high on. It sounds like he's a good college player without a ton of ability and who lacks size.
  4. I'd rather take a RB or K here. I think a guy like Kay Jay Harris would be a great pick and would help McGahee wear defenses down for the fourth quarter. T.A. McClendon might be a good pick at RB as well. Not only is he a powerful runner, he's also an excellent reciever. Problem is, he may not have much speed.
  5. I don't know if you guys have noticed this, but the Bills have taken right at 2 minutes so far with each selection today. I think they know exactly who they want with these picks.
  6. The same reason that no one has selected Brandon Browner. He's just not fast enough. That said, some team could try converting him into an outside LB.
  7. Villarial will make the roster and Anderson should, but the rest are all career backups who could easily find themselves out of a job this September. If the Bills feel he's better than what they have, then they made a good choice picking Geisinger.
  8. Unlike Leif Larsen, this guy has been a four year starter in a major conference.
  9. I think the odds are very high that he'll pick a kicker. The coaching staff showed no confidence in Lindell last year and by selecting a kicker, they avoid the mad rush to sign one as an UDFA (and not many rookies are going to willingly choose to kick in Buffalo weather if they can help it).
  10. This guy has RG prospect written all over him. At the very least, you'd think he'd be an excellent run blocker. Looks like a nice pick here in R6.
  11. They already took their C. I doubt they take another.
  12. I know, and I would still pass. I view him as a borderline day 1 player without the injuries. With them, I'd rather get an early/mid day 2 type prospect who can stay on the field.
  13. Pass. He's got an injury history and is not as good as the hype.
  14. I'm guessing it'll be one of the following: RB Kay Jay Harris OT Calvin Armstrong K Jonathan Nichols
  15. The thing is, he's been passed over 150 times now. In a weak draft, you'd think someone would have taken a chance on him by now and it makes me wonder what the problem is. No one wants him and I'm not quite sure I want the Bills to pick him, either.
  16. The Bills supposedly brought this guy in for a pre-draft workout as well. Folks, face it, they know more about this guy than the amateurs that write draft guides.
  17. Go check out the combine data in their profiles at NFL.com. He sucks so bad that he actually beat Chris Spencer in the three cone drill by a full half second at the combine. He beat him in the 20 yard shuttle, too. His 40 time was bad, but he wasn't significantly slower than Spencer over the first 10 and 20 yards of it, either. Sounds like he may be a guy who just needs a year in the Bills strength and conditioning program to me.
  18. That's the one thing that bugs me about the pick. Then again, maybe the Bills felt that he was a good enough prospect that they didn't want to take a chance that he might sneak through another round or two?
  19. I'm pretty sure that I've read that the Bills brought him in for a visit a couple of weeks ago, so they probably know what they're doing with this pick. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt.
  20. I have a feeling the Bungles will make sure one of them isn't available right here. But yeah, either one would seem to be a good pick for the Bills at 122.
  21. I think Donahoe will probably pick an OL here in R4 just to prevent a total mutiny amongst the fanbase.
  22. Draft a kicker sometime today! If there's one thing that practically all Bills fans would like to see, it would be for the Bills to replace Lindell. This is a good draft for kickers, with, IMO, two very good prospects likely to fall into the last two rounds (Nichols and Jones). With any luck, the Bills will pick one of them and we'll have a kicker that might be a threat to kick a 40+ yard field goal.
  23. I believe Nick Collins has already been selected.
  24. And unfortunately, it IS the truth and has been the truth about the Bills since the mid 1990s. I'm not going to sit here and knock the players that they drafted. I think they drafted a couple of good ones, but this OL looks like a train wreck waiting to happen to me. There are still some decent prospects likely to be available in R4, but I have exactly zero faith in Donahoe to select one. One thing is for sure, the Bills haven't found jack squat on day 2 for the OL since friggin' 1987 with Howard Ballard. The next best? Your choice of either Corbin Lacina or Dusty Zeigler. Given that fact, it amazes me that some Bills fans still believe the myth that good OL are a dime a dozen in the late rounds. This team has proven the opposite, if anything, and have blown about a dozen more day 2 draft picks on OL flops. Sigh... forgive my whining, its just frustrating to know that there's a very good chance that we'll all be sitting here again next year hoping that they draft a quality OL prospect in '06.
  25. I am almost always negative on draft day, last year being an exception. I don't really know why this is the case, either, but today has been no different. Still, as a few days pass, my opinion usually changes and I can see the same thing happening with this draft already. My complaints are more about the overall strategy. I like the players they've added.
