i agree, but i also have to fault myself because i knew they would be, i still do, yet i keep reading them

according to....... oh thats right... YOU! proving his point

yeah, its all about money, thats why we didnt trade back into the first round and have to pay 2 first roud picks right....

i would hope modrak is behind this, dont we employ him to be behind this?

i love them i hate you

there we go if we want a player.... get him, what the hell is the big deal we also dont need to "stockpile picks" anymore since we signed a lot of free agents

where did my whitner thread go?

the Texans also told the world for the last 4 months they were taking reggie bush

well thats clearly the case, you cant tell me he wasnt rated higher than bunkley or ngata or else we wouldnt have taken him, those guys have way too many question marks, whitner is the man.

ITS JOHN CLAYTON........ hes an iodiot and everyone on here knows it, he never reports anything correct. In fact, this makes me feel better that those teams in fact DIDNT offer those choices lol

so true

see, so everyone saying he would be there at 15..... stfu

exactly

dude..... theres still the other 6 rounds of the draft, we will probably get a DT so calm down. you're telling me you wanted bunkley or ngata??

of course

we dont know who would be there at 15 and we dont know what they were offering, the browns who dropped down got a 6th, so lets not assume we could have gotten another 2nd or 3rd.

can you contradict yourself anymore??? you love taking a safety, the only reason you arent happy is because we didnt trade down? makes no sense, it seems like this is still the pick you wanted.

you dont know that, so stop saying it.

First, I'd like to discuss who was available at the time. I dont feel comfortable with Bunkley or Ngata. I feel that Justice is a huge gamble and i would not want to grab him with #8 money. What i wanted the Bills to do was trade down. I felt that one of the DT's being taken by us was the wrong pick. The only problem with trading down was the players available. The Eagles and Broncos were said to be the 2 teams interested in trading with us. I also did not feel comfortable with any of the players that were supposed to be available around those picks either even though we would be picking up another pick. Maybe Whitner would be there, maybe he wouldnt, but as I've said before, if you like a player draft him, dont take a chance on him being there when you trade down. If you think the Bills didnt want to trade down and pick up Whitner your nuts. They were clearly on the phone but something wasnt right. Who knows what it was, BUT, if the Bills could have moved down they would have. As many of you know, i was an advocate of taking Michael Huff with our pick. I think that Matt Bowen and Coy Wire suck, Troy Vincent is like 100 years old, and we have no depth behind these players. Now the player. Coming straight from thehuddlereport.com the writeup on Whitner says, "Donte is one of the better tacklers in this draft. He is a head up, wrap up, squeeze and drive tackler. He has really good speed, size and shows an excellent burst to the ball. He has good hands to go for the interception and shows impressive overall instincts for his position." The even more impressive thing i found in there was, "If you want a safety set to go for a two-deep zone coverage defense, don’t think twice about drafting Donte. That is the system that he can handle right away and impact for you." Bottom line: we needed a player like this on our defense, we should have traded down and we tried but it obviously wasnt a good situation. I dont care that we took him with the number 8 pick because the only difference between taking him then or later is money, and obviously the Bills feel comfortable enough paying him. One of the other choices at this spot would not have been good. Thank God matt bowen or coy wire doesnt have to start.

lets get the hell outta here

i agree, the only thing is, if we trade down further than where bunkley or justice would be, who would we take??????

what do we do guys?

trade down

if i were reggie bush i couldnt wait to play the texans, he must be so mad, and hes going to run all over them
