1billsfan Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 Just for fun I'd thought I'd do a few drafts off of the GBN's final board before the combine. I went strictly by who was available on the board when our pick came… The "Franchise QB" draft… 1. Cam Newton QB (3) 2. Ben Ijalana G (35) 3. Kenrick Ellis DE/DT (67) 4. Colin McCarthy ILB (99) 4. Kendric Burney CB (121) 5. Chykie Brown CB (134) The "building a tough defense" draft… 1. Robert Quinn OLB (3) 2. Stephen Paea DE/DT (35) 3. Kelvin Sheppard ILB (67) 4. Colin Kaepernick QB (99) 4. Kendric Burney CB (121) 5. Chykie Brown CB (134) The "BPA" in 1st round draft… 1. A.J. Green WR (3) 2. Stephen Paea DE/DT (35) 3. Kelvin Sheppard ILB (67) 4. Dontay Moch OLB (99) 4. Kendric Burney CB (121) 5. Chykie Brown CB (134) http://www.gbnreport.com/top100.html Of course some players will go much earlier than these rankings, however remember that while there will be players who go much earlier, that will inevitably push quality players into lower draft positions.

1billsfan Posted February 21, 2011 Author Posted February 21, 2011 1- Von Miller 2-Cameron Hayward 3-Lawrence Wilson Heyward was ranked #33 and we're at #34. I was being strict to the ranking board.
OldTimer1960 Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 1- Von Miller 2-Cameron Hayward 3-Lawrence Wilson Boy, I'd love those first two picks. I think that would REALLY improve the defense significantly.
Bangarang Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 I don't see Stephen Paea as a DE at all. Like, not even a little.
Thoner7 Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 I don't see Stephen Paea as a DE at all. Like, not even a little. I do, dude can move. I dont see him being much of an anchoring NG either. Where else would he play?
1billsfan Posted February 21, 2011 Author Posted February 21, 2011 I don't see Stephen Paea as a DE at all. Like, not even a little. If the Bills are doing a hybrid defense and with Quinn's size, Paea could perhaps be the perfect compliment to the Quinn OLB first round pick.
San Jose Bills Fan Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 I do, dude can move. I dont see him being much of an anchoring NG either. Where else would he play? Paea looks like a Kyle Williams clone to me. IF the Bills go back to a 4-3, he and Williams would wreak havoc in the middle. Paea is the perfect one-gap, penetrating 4-3 tackle…as is Williams.
....lybob Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 Paea looks like a Kyle Williams clone to me. IF the Bills go back to a 4-3, he and Williams would wreak havoc in the middle. Paea is the perfect one-gap, penetrating 4-3 tackle…as is Williams. It may sound crazy but I vote Paea to our team as an ILB Trade down with Cleveland 1. Robert Quinn OLB 2a Martez Wilson ILB 2b Stephan Paea ILB You'd have to question their ability in coverage but with Merriman and Quinn both playing at around 265-270 Wilson 250 and Paea playing at 275-280 we probably wouldn't get pushed around as much in the run game.
