San Jose Bills Fan Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 I haven't studied any of the players yet so I don't have any formed opinions of any of the draft class. Only first impressions. However if there's a guy who's an excellent pass rusher, I think the Bills will go in that direction. My early guess is that they'll trade back into the first round to get their quarterback.
frogger Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 I'd take Ogletree at 8. Nassib in the 2nd Ditto, olgetree shot up the charts.
ChevyVanMiller Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 Nassib ranked 48 on CBS Sports Big Board (#4 QB) www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/prospectrankings
papazoid Posted January 10, 2013 Author Posted January 10, 2013 Nassib ranked 48 on CBS Sports Big Board (#4 QB) www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/prospectrankings with the premium on QB's....he may not be there around #40 when we pick in 2nd...
truth on hold Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) Folks like it or not, looks like another T O will be headed to Buffalo in April I look forward to it. Edited January 10, 2013 by Joe_the_6_pack
AC4 IN ATL Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 In listening to Buddy in an interview, he brought up possibly adding a QB via Free Agency without even being asked. That tells me we will go and get a QB to play right away via free agency and then draft one in RD2. Just because Buddy says we are going to draft a QB doesn't mean he is going to change his draft philosophy of 30+ years.

Peter Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 What philosophy is that? Draft round 2 qbs? Not reach on a QB - especially in the first round.
NoSaint Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 Not reach on a QB - especially in the first round. But he will in round 2, based on the philosophy?
truth on hold Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) Not reach on a QB - especially in the first round. Yeah really this class is looking pretty "meh", mirror opposite of last year. I hope this franchise doesn't overcompensate for its failure to draft a QB over last few years with a costly reach this year. Last thing we need is another dud we feel obligated to play.

AC4 IN ATL Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 Sorry, left that point out. Yeah I meant reaching for a QB at #8 when there isn't one graded out that high. I just don't see him straying too far from his overall philosophy of drafting the best player available. JMO. Could be wrong. Wouldn't be the first time and won't be the last.
Grondre Reed Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 LOL kiper loves notre dame. remember when he thought clausen was like the 4th BPA...same with Manti. i wanted him till i watched bama' (a real team) pwn his @$$. now hes just another ND scud
San Jose Bills Fan Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 I have a hunch its gonna Milliner I'd love to see a live cam of Bill from NYC if that were to happen.

San Jose Bills Fan Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 Look like this? http://www.tumblr.co.../head exploding LOL! Pretty much!
#34fan Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) First of all, Ryan Nassib is JUNK. Secondly, Glennon, while a better project than Nassib, is still a project, and therefore also JUNK. Thirdly, Did anybody see how Barrett Jones man-handled that 6'6" 350lb nose guard? And then STILL had the strength to shove his own QB 15 yards! -Kid is a BEAST. Trade down... Do what yo gotta do... Draft Barrett Jones. Edited January 10, 2013 by #34fan
truth on hold Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 any chance tyler wilson is there at 8? hes about the only QB Id take there
ThurmasThoman Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 The best approach for the Bills to take is to rank all the qbs and then take the highest rated qb on their board. The question to be asked is in two or three years which selection they make will have the most impact for the team? Most certainly it is going to be a qb. If the Bills believe that there are a few reasonable qb picks who will be on the board in the second round then what happens if other teams maneuver ahead of us to snatch a coveted prospect? Buddy has suggested that that is what happened last year. This is the year to get a good qb prospect on the roster, even if that prospect is not going to play right away. The odds improve in your favor that drafting a qb prospect higher than lower will work out better. I'm not wedded to any particular player. Tyler Wilson and Glennon are interesting prospects. Barkley might be the most ready to play right away but there are questions about his arm strength. Nassib seems like a Dalton type prosect. A tough heady player who has adequate physical tools but there is nothing special about him. Without a doubt this year's draft is going to be extremely fascinating because it is going to give us some insight as to how this new regime operates. There comes a time when a staid organization has to be bold just for the sake of being different from the same cautious mentality that has not gotten us very far. let me do you one better: that's what we should do with our first 2 picks. let me do you, and i, 2 better: thats what we should do with our first 3 picks. draft geno #1. move back into the first, take barkley #2. take nassib in the second. cut fitz, thigpen, let jackson walk. open training camp with a competition between all 3.
Beerball Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 thats what we should do with our first 3 picks. That's not gold Johnny.
