What is it about Limas Sweed that we don't know?
-
If the Bills don't draft a WR, we are going to have another 8-8 season, albeit with a much better defense. I would love to see Groves on the Bills, but they need a WR bad. Fred Davis would be good, but he still leaves Josh Reed on the field.
-
Agree about wideouts, although I would love Groves on our team.
-
I have to say that is a pretty obvious pick. Rams need a WR?
-
That is a good pick. Still leaves a lot of good players on the board going into the 2nd round. I hope we snap up Thomas. I think its worth taking the number 15 ranked player overall and the top WR.
-
My worry is that when the WR's start coming off, they are going to come off fast.
-
Gotta imagine Giants will take a linebacker (Connor) and Fins will take Merling (especially with Taylor threatening to jump ship). I saw we go up and get Thomas.
-
For 2nd and 4th, I would trade for Thomas. It lets us take the best available TE in the third. And I think we can get a fullback in the 5th.
-
Jets Trading up? I really don't think they will take a WR. But you never know. Possible a QB?
-
I'm loving the fact that no WR's have been picked yet. I want Thomas.
-
Knew it. I like Cromartie better, but you can't really depend on guys who haven't faced top competition. Problem is, none of these guys really played top competition. Looks like Troy played the best teams out of the bunch.
-
Bills are going to take McKlevin. No doubt about it. Too bad. I hope they can trade back in and get Kelly or Harvey.
-
Shaping up to look like Bills are going pick a CB, (unless Pats take McKlevin).
I really hope we don't take a CB though.
-
I don't know why no one is talking about us drafting Limas Sweed. Mark my words, he will be the best receiver to come out of the group. He has pretty decent timed speed for his size, a history of production that goes beyond just 1 year, great intangibles and he will be a huge red zone target with his wingspan.
-
Totally agree.....particularly since we have a high rotation system.
IMO if Ellis did drop to us it would be wise to pick him. We might well be set at DT......but we may well still be weak. There are no guarantees that McCargo will develop into the level of player that we ultimately want(need)......and there is a reasonable possibility that Stroud will not fully recover from his injuries to his past levels as well as the whole substance abuse issue.
Even if both Stroud and McCargo both play at probowl level, the high rotation system we use will not only enable us to get a lot of use out of Ellis in the next few seasons but provide us with great flexibility when Stroud & McCargo come to the end of their contracts in 3 years time.
And just to add on to that, I think that the Giants proved that you can never have enough dominant D-lineman. A solid line would really help out the D-backs and linebackers
-
I didn't mean to imply that Ellis would be a starter, I just meant to say that McCargo will not be getting the majority of snaps with Ellis sitting on the bench. I think there would be a pretty solid rotation.
-
Flowers,DRC,Cason,or Talib in the first and Manningham or Hardy in the second sounds pretty good to me or maybe get Thomas in the 2nd i really like him
Flowers isn't a 1st round talent IMO
-
Ellis would be a back up, why would we spend the 11th pick on him? It is extremely unlikely he will be anywhere near McCargo's level this year. Infact, this will be McCargo's break out year (hopefully), as he was an absolute monster at times last year.
I agree Ellis would start the year as a backup. But to say he won't be ANYWHERE near McCargo's level I think is a pretty optimistic view of McCargo's ability. I agree that McCargo will be a much better player next year, but Ellis is a monster. Every level he has played at, he has dominated. Including at the Senior Bowl. I think it would be accurate to predict that Ellis will have a similar rookie year to Amobi Okoye.
-
I agree, no way Ellis falls past New England. Or the Bengals. However, if he falls to us we take him. We will be getting a WR in the 2nd round, and he will be good. I do think the Bills should have paid Johnson's price tag to hedge their bets, but he either way if Ellis is there, you take him. Mark my words, one of the top 10 talents everyone is talking about will fall to the Bills. If it is one of the defensive lineman (Gholston, Ellis, Dorsey,) you have to take them. Hell, the only guys I wouldn't draft within the projected top 10, would be one of the CB's. I think there always has to be a CB in the top 10, but most are not worth taking that early.
I agree it gives us leverage to trade down, but who would we trade down with? I keep hearing the Cowboys, b/c they have 2 first round picks and need a WR. But they obviously are going to land one of the top 4 WR's who are essentially all rated similar. Who else wants pick 11?
-
I feel Davis isn't the Bills kind of TE. He isn't that physical of a player. I could see Keller from Purdue being our pick unless he is taken by that point.

Unless the next 3 teams all take Sweed, Hardy, Kelly.....we should be good. (Remember Doucett is still around)
