eball Posted April 10, 2012 Posted April 10, 2012 I'm fine with #10 if Floyd is truly the BPA when Buffalo picks, and the Bills are confident his off-field issues won't be a recurring concern. Don't know enough about Jeffery to comment there. I keep flip-flopping about taking a WR at #10.
Pete Posted April 10, 2012 Posted April 10, 2012 I think we will draft 1 WR in first 2 rounds- but 2 would be overkill with so many other needs. If we stay at 10 I am aok with Floyd being the pick. But the draft is deep at WR and wouldn't mind if we waited until second round to address it. And I much prefer Sanu to Jeffery
Coach Tuesday Posted April 10, 2012 Posted April 10, 2012 Per Rotoworld: One NFL scout told ESPN New York that he noticed a "gut" on South Carolina WR Alshon Jeffery in pre-game warmups during the college season, and the scout is under the impression that Jeffery "loves to eat."

Alshon's got his fingers crossed Buffalo takes him in the 2nd then. Hmmmmm...Duffs...Anchor...Mighty...Hmmmmmm.
WickedGame Posted April 10, 2012 Posted April 10, 2012 The Bills are looking for a #2 receiver, not a #1 receiver. It doesn't matter that many on this board think Stevie J. isn't a #1 receiver...he's the guy, and we're looking for a #2. If you pick a WR at #10 and he's the second WR off the board, you're taking him to be your #1 receiver. I don't see the Bills in the market for that player. Better fits are Randle, Sanu, McNutt, etc. in round 2-4. As much as I'm not crazy about the pick, I think we're looking at either Reiff or Kuechly. And there's NO way we go WR with first AND second picks. This isn't Madden.

He showed up in shape at the combine, FWIW. I get your point though - it could be an ongoing problem with him, especially after he starts getting fat checks.

While I don't support taking two WRs at 1 & 2, if we ever did Sanu had better be the guy. Why not go DeCastro/Sanu?

San Jose Bills Fan Posted April 10, 2012 Posted April 10, 2012 I keep flip-flopping about taking a WR at #10. Yes you do and it's starting to get VERY ANNOYING!

If Reiff doesn't, it says they view him as a RT only which is the view of many. If Kuechly doesn't, it says they don't want to "waste" a #10 pick on the OLB position. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/03/29/2012-draft-visits-and-workout-tracker/
eball Posted April 10, 2012 Posted April 10, 2012 Yes you do and it's starting to get VERY ANNOYING! I just need to stop reading anything about the draft and go into my "in Buddy we trust" mode.
tennesseeboy Posted April 10, 2012 Posted April 10, 2012 number one is a left tackle. Trade up to get Kalil, go with Reiff or stretch or trade downfor Martin. I like your number two pick.
KOKBILLS Posted April 10, 2012 Posted April 10, 2012 Per Rotoworld: One NFL scout told ESPN New York that he noticed a "gut" on South Carolina WR Alshon Jeffery in pre-game warmups during the college season, and the scout is under the impression that Jeffery "loves to eat." He was asked about this exact thing at his Pro Day by Mike Mayock...He basically said "Never again...I'm staying at this weight (213)..." The Scouts concerns may be legit...But...Who the heck does NOT love to eat?...
KOKBILLS Posted April 10, 2012 Posted April 10, 2012 (edited) number one is a left tackle. Trade up to get Kalil, go with Reiff or stretch or trade downfor Martin. The Bills are not going to Trade up...They need picks... And I'd rather have Cordy Glenn than Reiff or Martin...I think Glen is going to end up being the best LT outside of Kalil...I'm not sure Reiff will ever play LT in the NFL...And Martin is possibly a year or two away...Plus...Glenn can give you experienced Depth anywhere along the line...

And there's NO way we go WR with first AND second picks. This isn't Madden. That logic is just flawed all to hell. We should be looking for the best talent we can get at a position of need. If we had the opportunity to draft a Calvin Johnson do you turn him down because you are "all set" at the #1 WR position. NO! That would be ridiculous. (NO....I am not trying to say Floyd is anywhere near as good as Calvin Johnson.) Floyd is going to be a rookie. He will play where he gets put! If he pushes SJ for the #1 WR spot....FREAKING AWESOME! So much the better. Focus on the fact that we need 2 starting caliber WRs. I don't care where they play or who is #1 or #2 or 1a and 1b it just flat out doesn't matter. We need two reliable guys that can play. As many coaches like to say that is a great problem to have. Edited April 10, 2012 by PDaDdy

macaroni Posted April 10, 2012 Posted April 10, 2012 I really would like Floyd at #10 .... However if the Bills do pick Reiff at #10 what does everybody think about packaging our second round pick and a later round pick (I don't have the value chart so I don't know which round) to trade up to the bottom of the first round to get Fleener the Tight end from Stanford?
