Brandt: RB in high school, Gil thinks he's a LB not a Safety, athlete with speed and 235. Similar to Coy Wire (seriously, they said that). 235 and fast, good athlete, should be a good blitzer...

Interesting: http://www.fftoolbox.com/nfl_draft/profile...rospect_id=1619 Nic Harris, SS, Oklahoma Nic Harris is a big, hard-hitting safety who has given nightmares to Big 12 opponents. It started when he was a freshman and earned some starts at free safety. A year later Harris was playing corner and ended the season back at free safety, where he led the team in interceptions and started to show just how good he could be. By his junior campaign, Harris was earning all-conference accolades from just about everybody At 6-3 and 230 pounds, Harris is a big safety. Yet, his foot speed does not suffer due to his size. Harris does a great job getting into the backfield and he is always a candidate to blitz out of the secondary. During the 2007 season he recorded 9.5 tackles-for-loss and 3.5 sacks. Harris is not known for his coverage abilities, but he is not bad at it. Besides leading the team in 2006 with four interceptions, he tallied two in 2007 and broke up seven passes. Harris might not have the pure athleticism and talent of some of the great safeties that have played in the NFL, but he is a solid player and low risk selection. For now he is likely a mid-round selection, but Harris can move his stock up quite a bit with a good senior season and a decent showing at the combine. 12/17 Update: Harris had a solid senior campaign, but did not put up eye popping numbers. He tallied 64 tackles, including three for a loss, but did not get a sack or an interception all year long. The Sooners defense had other playmakers to rack up the sacks and interceptions and Harris did what the team needed him to do. Despite the lack of flashy numbers, Harris still earned AP third-team All-America accolades. 2/12 Update: Harris is trying to move to the outside linebacker position, but the results are not so good. During practices at the Senior Bowl he struggled to move through all the traffic. His footwork is still fine, but he will have to add strength in order to fight through blocks. Harris will need to do better during the NFL Combine or he will fall into the second day of the draft.

lol - some relation to Shawn Nelson is on Twitter: "yeah I was thinking that too. I see him going to the Bills. If they don't pick him.....who knows" "I knew that was going to happen. Now S Dot gotta play with TO's crazy a**" pretty funny

Sirius was just talking about Meridith! Sweet - Wood is on!!

He does look tall. Between him and Hardy (and I suppose those other guys, TO and Lee) Trent should just be able to loft the ball up about 12 feet in the air

We did the right thing then...

Hold up we drafted a *dead guy*? The front office is REALLY asleep at the wheel - I'm outraged!

Sirius like the Nelson pick - Brandt had hit ranked 57th overall, said that he did a great job catching the ball in the combine, cousin of Glen Dorsey, 6'4" - 240.

Who did Dallas take? NM - Brandon Williams DE

So much for that thought

Maybe we'll see Pittsburgh give us a four for Roscoe this round? That would give us a little more flexibility to go after Scheff...

121 147 183 220

If they don't draft an OT, I think that Jaime Dukes' head will explode - he's been yammering on about how crazy the Bills are because they didn't replace Peters for two days now.

I think the middle of our O line is going to be really good for the next several years. Did you see Levitre pull - I can't wait to see that in the run game...

did you join tbd just to whine?

walker, woods, hangartner, levitre, bell ^lol

Spot on!

Levitre! Sirius LOVES the pick.

wow - wtf's up with that?

Exactly. Hopefully our Defensive backfield will be pretty freaking good next year...

Well, at least we're not the Raiders. Brant had Mitchel out of his top 150 and another guy had him rated 225. lol.

All Wildcat, all the time... Though Schien said that he's going to get broken in half in the NFL!

Bills drafted Wood to play Guard http://myespn.go.com/blogs/afceast/0-7-135...play-guard.html

I suppose if we address TE, LB and DE tomorrow I'll be happy with the draft. I'll be interesting to see where Byrd plays...
