It means he's not going to take a guy not ready to contribute right away, like Maybin, Pierre-Paul, Anthony Davis. My guess would be the pick is between Spiller and Dan Williams, if Okung and Trent Williams are gone. Impossible to know if Clausen is the pick because it will totally depend on Gailey and Nix being sold on Clausen's intangibles.
And if he takes Pierre-Paul or Davis, will your reaction be that they are ready to contribute right away or that Nix made a mistake?
-
Agreed. Nix's specialty is college scouting and the draft. He will take the Best Player Available and someone who can play right away at #9.
So that means by virtue of Nix drafting him, he's not a reach?
-
Tiki and Ronde Barber were both very good players.
-
Tim, is there a chat today?
-
With that many picks you could afford to even draft a Tebow and a Lefevour.
PTR
How many Tebows and Lefevours are there?
-
It totally ignores the passing side of the offense.
-
They are not going to reach for a T at 9 if the top two or three or not there
But unless you know who their top two or three are, then it doesn't mean they won't take the fourth off the board.
-
No chance Bills Not in the basement? So you're saying the Bills are not going to finish last then?!
He got it right. You miscounted the negatives.
-
Maybe people should stop rushing to give a snarky comment any time someone has some new information to share here. Maybe we should wait a minute to see if someone might be on to something before jumping down his throat.
It's another teachable moment, brought to you by TBD.
-
Maybe it's best they show up at OBD instead.
-
Why do people think Luck is coming out next year? He'll only be a redshirt sophomore.
-
I am positive at least Wendling didn't fail a physical and get cut, he just got straight up let go.He did fail a physical. Hence the reason he hasn't been signed by anyone yet.
He had knee surgery after the season for what seemed to be a major problem. There was an article on the front page last week from the Laramie Boomerang detailing it.
-
He hasn't been let go yet so they must think he fits in enough to see what he can do.
Nobody who hasn't failed a physical has been let go yet.

From about two minutes ago:
Ben (Michigan)
Who do you think will draft Dan LeFevour and in what round?
Mel Kiper
(1:14 PM)
I could see him going in the second round. He's my fourth best QB. He really helped himself in the Senior Bowl practices. He has a good enough arm. He has adequate mobility. Very smart. Loves to study film. I've compared him to Chad Pennington.
-
Sometimes, it's hard to understand this board. If LeFevour had a huge arm, he'd be a first-round prospect. The only reason he's in the discussion in the 3rd is because of his lack of ideal arm strength. A poor pro day could drop him down to the 5th. But does that mean he's a bad pick altogether, even with one of our sevenths? No.
-
I understand what he is saying, but how are they going to "solve" the QB issue, pick one out of a hat?
Thank you!
What is supposed to happen in the next month that will "solve" the problem? Are they going to run RF, TE, and BB through drills? Bring in someone new?
-
Thank you kindly. Since you already have the spreadsheet set up, it might be worth looking at how it changes the YPA numbers, where Edwards was 24th and Fitzy 27th including all the drops, spikes, etc.
-
Do you mind posting your raw data on this? I'd be interested in seeing the breakdown.
-
The Depth Chart is the same as last year with Andra Davis, Cornell Green and Dwan Edwards, Minus Terrell Owens. Levitre, Wood, and Byrd with a year experience. Leodis McKelvin added to one of the best secondaries in the NFL, also back returning kicks.
A better head coach. I see a 7-9 to 8-8 team still because of QB.
Minus Denney, Wendling and Josh Reed. We'd be lucky to compete in the MAC

From Mike Reiss, former Boston Globe reporter and current ESPN Patriots blogger:
9. If he stays healthy, defensive end Dwan Edwards could be the best value signing of free-agency. Edwards said the Seahawks and Broncos had concerns with his previously injured neck, so he landed in Buffalo on a reasonable four-year deal for a player at the position.

Over exaggeration of the situation...Brohm was put on practice squad at a time where teams were completely set at QB with the season about to start. Its not very common for teams to add a QB at the point barring an injury because the QB essentially will be so far behind, especially one thats never played, that he would take a spot from someone else that could contribute.
That argument goes both ways - it's not very common for teams to add a QB at that point because quality QBs that teams see value in having on their roster are not often cut at that point.
Here's a list of the final roster cuts. If you look at the QBs, that's not a group Brohm wants to be associated with:

That was a must-read, Lori. Guy's opinionated--but right.
Here's the link:

Sorry to take this thread off-topic, but Joe D is not off to a great start when he says the Bills' best off season move was cutting TO when they, in fact, didn't cut TO.
-
In order to be placed on the practice squad, you have to be released and clear waivers. Nobody claimed him.
While on the practice squad, you can be signed by any team. No team signed him for ten weeks until the Bills did.
So, it's a lot more than MacCarthy passing on him. Every team in the NFL in essence said they didn't want him on their roster.
-
That's because WNY's been in a recession for 25 years. Sorry, couldn't resist.I was about to say the jobless rate didn't spike here because it was already way higher than the national average. Hard to show an area lost jobs when there weren't many to begin with.
If you take the time to read the stories, you'll see the unemployment rates are below the national average.

I would love it. Anthony Davis is my choice for the top pick.
I don't think Cam Thomas will be available in the third, though.
Don't really recognize the rest of the names.
