BuffaloRebound Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 Only hope is to keep sucking and hope Barkley or Griffin fall to us and become the next great QB. Any other pick besides QB is just another year of polishing the turd that is this franchise.
San Jose Bills Fan Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 "Let the mock drafting begin" is a fairly fresh topic… certainly not as used up as the "Let's Mock the Drafts" topics.

I will take Barley/Griffin/Jones in the first and consider it our greatest draft in the past 10 years since we actually took a chance at something!
BobbyC81 Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 quoted for damn truth! I will take Barley/Griffin/Jones in the first and consider it our greatest draft in the past 10 years since we actually took a chance at something! I guess you've forgotten that JP Losman was taken by the Bills in the 1st round of the 2004 draft? Granted it was a "Swing-and-a-miss. Strike three!!"
section122 Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 I did a little calculation and had some fun with the drafttek big board. I projected the Bills to have the 10th pick and did not reach for any players currently rated above that and this is what I came up with. (pick is overall number) 10 - Courtney Upshaw Alablama 3-4 OLB 42 - Zebrie Sanders FSU Left OT 74 - Cliff Harris Oregon CB (rated 73rd but RG3 is 74 no way is he still there) 106 - Kellen Moore Boise QB 127 - Matt Conrath UVA 3-4 DE (Ravens Pick) 138 - Ryan Broyles Oklahoma WR 170 - N. Jean-Baptiste Baylor NT 202 - Julian Miller WVU 3-4 OLB 234 - Landon Walker Clemson Left OT This would be a pretty good draft and would fill a couple of Buddy requirements. I have a db, a middle round wr, and a clemson player. On a serious note this would address our pass rush, our secondary, our front 7 (4 picks), give us a qb of the future (I think Moore is going to be a stud - great decision making and accuracy only question is his height), speed at the wr position (and Broyles is a monster as anyone who watches OU will tell you), o-line depth (two left tackles I know but many college tackles move inside to play guard and it is a very important position so why not have a bit of depth!) So what do you guys think? Should I submit my application to 1 Bills Drive and clear the last weekend of April - Or not quit my day job haha
Max997 Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 I know Bills need a lot on Defense but I want a legit LT

Should I submit my application to 1 Bills Drive and clear the last weekend of April - Or not quit my day job haha I'm with you on our draft position...the websites I quoted above had us at 13th...I think 10 is a better bet and we may even slide to 9th or 8th - as we slide, the Cards and Rams may pick up a few more wins. At this point, I can only hope get a better draft pick than to win a few useless games and sustain more injuries.

Yeah I did my best evaluation of the rest of the season and figured anywhere from 7-10th pick was attainable losing the rest of the games (it's not Sunday so that's what I'm rooting for - on Sundays I can't help but root for the w) and I really would be pleased with the results of my mock...
billsfan714 Posted December 13, 2011 Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) If Seattle wins tonight were 11th with 3 games to go, another loss to the the fins is going to be crucial. http://www.gbnreport.com/weeklydraftorder.html Edited December 13, 2011 by billsfan714
SDS Posted December 13, 2011 Posted December 13, 2011 There are like 6 teams ahead of us that need QB's too. We ain't getting squat in Rd1 for QB.
billsfan714 Posted December 13, 2011 Posted December 13, 2011 If we can get to 7 we have a chance at one of those top 3 QBs. Teams ahead of that are: Colts-will take a QB, Minn-has Ponder, St Louis-Bradford, Washington-will take a QB, Jacksonville-has Gabbert, and Carolina-Caaaaaam.
BringBackFergy Posted December 13, 2011 Author Posted December 13, 2011 Pretty sure we won't get into the top 8, but if all the stud QB's are taken, and assuming there are still numerous OLB's on the board that we like, do we entertain a move down the draft board and pick up an extra second round pick from someone? For example, Let's say we are drafting at 8 and Dallas at 16 really wants to take a CB there, do we swap our 8th pick for their 16th and take their second round pick (not sure if that is equal value or not)....I wouldn't do it - I'd rather take the absolute best player on the board for a position of need, but knowing how these things shake out, Gotta think this will happen with a few teams.

Take a look at the standings dude. I see 8th, or as high as 6th!
