Since he lasted to our pick in the 2nd round, Im guessing that wasnt the NFL Consensus

This Corp guy might be pretty good http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-shutdown-corner/best-undrafted-players-2012-offense-190032664.html;_ylt=AnO4GrKH4rtUiGwZ0dQpIlE5nYcB Is is pronounced Core (like Marine Corp) or Corp (like Corporation)?

Nick Sukay, PSU Safety to Buffalo! Ian Wild, SS, Mercyhurt to Buffalo (who?) Burfict to CIN Keenum to HOU so sad...

I read his bio..."Program record holder for tackles by a kicker (36)". Maybe that explains it!

Never argue with Logical Reasoning...

Also, remember that roscoe is gone, so we need a punt catcher and I don't really want to see spiller back there for fear of injuries. It's not who I would have taken (massie), but I trust Nix. Let's see how it turns out, but at a minimum a deep threat and a return man was a need.

I understand, but it was a double entendre i couldnt resist...

Gives new meaning to the term "NFL Draft Bust"

1. Luck 2. RG3 3. Kalil 4. Blackmon 5. Claiborne 6. Kuechly 7. Barron 8. Gilmore 9. Floyd 10. Richardson - I almost think you have to take him if he is there...but I would NOT be happy.

I think most of us here can see that the Bills are a boarder-line playoff team this year. 9-7 or 10-6 should be our goal. Next year is Playoffs or Bust for us. We are entering our 3-5 year window to win it all. Now, its a tough decision...are you willing to Ride Fitz for those 5 years? If the answer is Yes, then you DO NOT draft Tannehill. If the answer is No, then you need a QB. But the last thing I want is another QB controversey (which WILL happen if Tannehill is taken). Based on the contract Fitz signed last year, I think they are willing to ride the amish rifle. Lets get another peice who can help us in the next 5 years. My vote is Kuchely, although Kalil, Blackmon or Clairborne would be hard to resist if they fall.

I think you have to drop Richardson off of the list. Even if he is available at #10...i cant see us picking him.

Maybe a good model would be to have us come off a buy and play them, then the reverse happen later on in the season...

This just seems unreal. This happens every year. Simply amazing.

The real scary part here (for Fans anyway) is that it seems that both sides are willing to kill the goose to get the golden egg. Alot of the things which make the NFL exciting and fun to watch are being removed or restricted. Celebration penalties, kickoffs, hard hitting, actually hitting a Qb, etc. I worry that at some point the game will be pretty safe, but it wont be any more fun to watch than an ultimate Frisbee tournament. Did you see the Pro Bowl this year? I fear that is where we are headed. My time and dollars will go elsewhere if its not enjoyable to watch.

Its a fine line. Where do you draw the line between the inherent risk assumed as a basis of employment and the employer not taking adequate precautions to protect their employee. If a roofer falls off a roof, is his employer liable for his medical care? Does the answer change if he wasnt wearing company provided fall protection? Does the worker have the right to sue his employer? Does that answer change if the employer did not provide fall protection? Its admittedly a fine line, and im not sure how far waivers go if the argument is that the employer (NFL in this case) is not doing all they can to protect their employees. Thats negligence, and most liability waiver clauses (i assume) do not apply to cases of negligence. Even if they do, i doubt it would hold up in court. Dont forget about Spiller!

...and what happens to the onside kick if they do this? ...and then why not get rid of Punts too? It fundamentally changes the game. I hope they dont do it. They are worried about the liability the game creates. I understand that, but its a profession, and its hazardous. When you decide to be a professional football player you understand the risks...thats part of the reason why you make millions of dollars a year.

So per PFT, this schedule is crap. It has all the 4:15 games on CBS, with NONE on Fox. Sounds like it is Bogus. Here's hoping to a MNF game IN Buffalo...

Ahh...the classic Draft conundrum...everyone wants to move down...few want to move up.

Yeah, gotta be some better scoring here. McKelvin as a 11th overall should not count as much as Stevie or bell in the 7th. One is a disappointment, the others are very good value picks.

INCLUDING (by the way...) The Patriots!

YAY!!! We're not as bad as Detroit!!! Oh what???...they made the playoffs last year? Now im depressed.

Yep. We overpaid. Usually do for Free Agents. Thats why you have to develop through the draft and keep your own. But we have the money. I am glad we spent it. I overpaid for my house too, but I really like it, its a perfect fit for my family, and it has provided me tons of great memories. Oh well. I had to live somewhere, might as well be happy. Ditto for Mario. Hopefully he can help provide us many great memories too. Its not like we spent 100M on a non-impact player. We got one of the top (if not THE top) DE in football. When was the last time we could say that?

Remember, these agents represent a bunch of players. My guess is this agent has other guys on the Bills as well. They have a good working relationship with the front office, thats their job. Talking to each other (agents-owner) is mutually beneficial. Hard to believe it doesnt occur ALL the time.

Too long a thread...anyone have a link to the press conference? I'd like to watch it.

Jeepers creepers....where did you get peepers?
