BringBackFergy Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 http://blogs.buffalo...-to-bills-at-8/ Has Manti Te'o going to Bills at #8. Discuss. If Eddie Lacey goes to the Jets, Pats or Fish....Noooooooooooo Nahh, I'm ok with it.
PromoTheRobot Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 If we want an overrated, undersized LB we could just resign Aaron Maybin. PTR
Dorkington Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 I'd gladly take him at that pick. But I have a nagging feeling we'll make a stretch for a QB... Nassib specifically (even though he's projected MUCH later)
Wooderson Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 How about Ogletree or J. Jones? I think I'd rather have either one of them at LB than Te'o at this point.
WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 It's interesting to note that he doesn't have a QB on the board yet (though he promises that he will) Would it be worth it to pick up Teo if we could also get Geno Smith/Matt Barclay, the guys who the "take a QB in the first" group have held as their star examples?
VirginiaMike Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 I was all in on Teo before the bowl game and now am having doubts based upon the way he was run over in that game. I guess you can't overreact to one game, but ... I like taking guys with who have performed and produced (teo certainly did that this year) over folks who have impressive test results, but no long term results to support the "look". The maybin comparison is not fair -- Teo has the right size for a MLB and has good foorball instincts.
bobobonators Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 i'd rather stay away from Te'o. there are other LB's who offer much more explosion and game-changing ability. Te'o could be a solid starter in the NFL, but i don't see him being a game-changer/Pro-Bowl LB. i'd be more comfortable with Te'o if we were drafting like 20.
EmotionallyUnstable Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 How about Ogletree or J. Jones? I think I'd rather have either one of them at LB than Te'o at this point. Agreed. much rather take one of these cats then Te'o. I've heard it on here before and agree with it still. His combine numbers will disappoint.
Bills of Boston Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 Hopefully we don't judge a college kid on one game with there were 6 weeks off in between.. good or bad performance
BuffBill Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 I too think that would be a good pick, but my gut feeling is like others, Buddy is feeling the heat for a QB and they might just take the Syracuse QB, Nassib about 30 spots higher then he is projected.
reddogblitz Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 Teo will probably not have to tackle or get blocked by guys that big or juiced up like he did vs Alabama.
PromoTheRobot Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 Teo will probably not have to tackle or get blocked by guys that big or juiced up like he did vs Alabama. Right. The NFL is full of tiny players. The Alabama game wasn't just a red flag. It was massive fireworks display of red. T'eo wasn't just outplayed, he looked like he didn't even belong on the field. PTR
frogger Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 How about Ogletree or J. Jones? I think I'd rather have either one of them at LB than Te'o at this point. Ogletree is my pick, Jones scares me a little with his injury/illness past
section122 Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 Right. The NFL is full of tiny players. The Alabama game wasn't just a red flag. It was massive fireworks display of red. T'eo wasn't just outplayed, he looked like he didn't even belong on the field. PTR I think your sarcasm meter is malfunctioning. As for the undersized comment you made earlier, 6'2" 255 is undersized?
mountainwampus Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 Te'o makes so much sense. He's worth an 8th pick, no doubt. He's Samoan, which apparently gives him super-human abilities. And he can immediately step in for our weakest link, Kelvin Sheppard.
San-O Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 i'd rather stay away from Te'o. there are other LB's who offer much more explosion and game-changing ability. Te'o could be a solid starter in the NFL, but i don't see him being a game-changer/Pro-Bowl LB. i'd be more comfortable with Te'o if we were drafting like 20. Agreed. I don't like taking a LB that high unless game-changing ability, as you mention. The Bills have other issues to address like QB, and I would rather then trade down and get extra picks. If possible: they never do.
Heels20X6 Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 Teo will probably not have to tackle or get blocked by guys that big or juiced up like he did vs Alabama. Did I miss the announcement that the Patriots were being removed from the league?
