Bud Adams Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 Funny, a few weeks ago this board would have exploded with joy seeing a list that had Buffalo taking T'eo at #8, now everyone once to pass because of a Bowl game? He was tested against elite talent, akin to what he will see in the NFL. He bombed. Sounds about right to me. BA
Buffalo Barbarian Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 No, they don't. I was talking about the second round. Please read my posts in full if you must reply. BA my error
reddogblitz Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 My suspicion is there will be 2 QBs, maybe 3 before the Bills draft at 8.
Wayne Cubed Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 For what its worth here was his top 10 from his first mock last year: 1. Andrew Luck 2. Justin Blackmon 3. Matt Kalil 4. Robert Griffin III 5. Trent Richardson 6. Morris Claiborne 7. Quinton Coples 8. Dre Kirkpatrick 9. Riley Reiff 10. Courtney Upshaw So, there's that...
Bud Adams Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 My suspicion is there will be 2 QBs, maybe 3 before the Bills draft at 8. I agree. One team will take Smith. Another will reach for Barkley. BA
KGun12TD Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 Mel is a moron! He gets the same pick correct as you and I...the FIRST Pick! I really don't know why this guys is ever relevant!
Sisyphean Bills 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 Getting a guy that can actually impact an NFL game would be a change of pace from adding another name to the scroll of busts.
QCity Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 For what its worth here was his top 10 from his first mock last year: 1. Andrew Luck 2. Justin Blackmon 3. Matt Kalil 4. Robert Griffin III 5. Trent Richardson 6. Morris Claiborne 7. Quinton Coples 8. Dre Kirkpatrick 9. Riley Reiff 10. Courtney Upshaw So, there's that... That actually is pretty good for a January pre-combine mock.

maddenboy Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 Not. Going. To. Happen. ARRRRRGGGGGHHH. There is no such thing as a "stretch" for a QB in the first round if your decision makers believe you have found a guy to lead your team for the next ten years. And Nassib is WAY too obvious. This times ten bazillion
Mango Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 take teo in the 1st and landry jones in the second please
....lybob Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 Where Teo will go will depends on his combine, Proday and who he tests more like Rey Maualuga or Luke Kuechly.
kickedface Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 i found that senior bowl and combine results tend to speak higher of draft order than anything.
NFLBighits Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 take teo in the 1st and landry jones in the second please take teo in the 1st and landry jones in the second please You want are Franchise to be losers the next 5 years ! Jones has slow feet slow release and will struggle at the speed of the NFL level and teo maybe with the third pick ! NOT !!!!!!!!!!!
missthe kgun Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 No thanks, not after that bowl game. Maybe in the 5th round
Kaz Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 The big difference is Von Miller never had a game where he was so thoroughly outplayed that he didn't look like he belonged on the same field with his opponent. I admit I did not see much of Te'o before the BCS championship. I've also heard the reasons like bad day, long layoff, and Alabama players are big and mean. Fine. But to see a guy who was that highly touted be rendered utterly useless is shocking and frightening. You can't just dust that off and say "ha ha, we all have bad days." Te'o looked small, slow, and showed terrible technique tacking...if you want to call getting flicked off like a booger an attempt at tackling. Sorry. If Te'o is that lost against Alabama, then what's gonna happen in the NFL? PTR So you're raising a red flag and basically calling Teo a dog (read: Aaron Maybin) based off of one game? And you freely admit you haven't really paid attention to his collegiate performance otherwise? Do I have that about right? Brilliant! On the other hand, how many of Von Miller's college games did you watch? Must've been all of 'em for you to proclaim that he "never" had a game where he was overmatched or had a bad day. You're laying some pretty hefty whoppers on us. Teo plays with a fire that Aaron Maybin couldn't duplicate if he drank a gallon of gasoline and swallowed a match. Maybin basically played one year at PSU and was given the "future star" tag by a bunch of geniuses who probably never picked up a football. Teo, meanwhile, is a four-year standout who just completed a senior year in which he was a Heisman finalist. Yeah, your comparison totally makes sense! C'mon, the dude -- and the entire team, by the way -- has one stink-ola game and suddenly he's trash. Well, I guess Thurman Thomas' career was complete garbage for his performances in three Super Bowls, right?

Shoutbox Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 Pretty good top 10 list for mid-January. Just replace Teo and Warmack with the 2 QB's, Smith and Wilson.
