Corey Chavous is over the moon about this pick. BTW, Chavous is doing a great job on NFLN, especially with Mayock out with laryngitis.

Would you entertain the possibility that NE's success has more to do with FO, proper picks, astute free agent signings and good coaching than with moving all around on draft day(s)? And that the Bills flopped pretty much in everyone of those categories?

I love the Wang pick.

Oh, don't go confusing the knucklehead with eyewitness reports.

Huh? I believe Reed and Owens are no longer on the roster so a little depth is needed at WR? Do you think there's an outside chance that this is the reason they took this guy? And special teams could use a few good men too, and that was his specialty at UConn.

You're missing the point with the Spiller pick...In essence, the Bills have added three players with C.J.: Running Back obviously, and kick/punt returner extraordinare. But I believe the FO is really projecting him to excel as a receiver. My guess is Gailey will use him as a primary receiver, not just a dump-off, back-in-motion option. We will certainly see him do that, but he will also be, effectively, the slot receiver at times. And don't be surprised if he sometimes streak straight down field. So Lynch and/or Jackson should be on the field most of the time. Two other factors Spiller will bring to the offense: Headaches and fear. Because of his ability to be used in so many ways, and the potential to take it to the house every time he touches the ball, defensive coordinators are going to be pulling their hair out. And defensive players are bound to be on edge every time he's on the field, knowing they can be embarrassed at any moment. Which means they're going to be distracted and tentative. If Hardy and Johnson come through as receivers this year, and if (The Big IF) one of the QBs actually performs well, this offense could be nutty. At a minimum, I think we'll see the Bills score-per-game increase markedly.

Bills are 3 for 3. Very excited with the picks so far.

Great post, hermano. Dead on the money. Nixley is 3 for 3, and the team is already substantially better.

I concur. Another surprise pick (to me anyway) but I believe it's a very solid one. I think we're going to like these first two guys very much.

Which Obama has done in spite of the horrendous mess made by Dubya and The Dark Lord. And when he's done, I'm pushing for a new guy: Buddy Nix for Pres -ee- dent!

That's funny!

Total relief that Tebow isn't coming to Buffalo. The guy is creepy. A Stepford Quarterback.

In about one year, the Bronco Brain Trust has managed to screw up a storied franchise beyond belief. It's worse even than the damage Donohoe did to the Bills when he ripped the team apart with no obvious rebuilding plan in sight (at least no sane plan).

He also resisted the push for him to come out early, saying he wanted the full college experience and the degree. The kid is also an Academic All-American. Good on him.

Not bad at all. Here's another option: C.J. "Gone, Baby, Gone" Spiller.

True enough. It's the old Catch-22.

The price is much, much lower after the first half of the first round so it's not out of the question that they'd grab a QB. And then there's Weis's connection to Clausen to consider. BTW, what will it say about Clausen if he's available when the Chiefs pick and they pass on him?

Just because the guy you already have can't cut it doesn't mean the guy(s) available in the draft are automatically an upgrade.

Me too.

No, because the Bills need IMPROVEMENT at QB, not just another body.

More cow bell!!!

Cleiar-headed post.

Good post.

Thanks, I needed a good laugh this morning.
