C.Biscuit97 Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Plus we already have 17 tires. Mosely and only Mosely in the first. OL and TE are the priorities after that. How can people look at Woods, Goodwin and Stevie and say we need to pick Evans? We are bad in the red zone. That can be the difference in a game. The good teams have a monster that you can just isolate & they will catch it. We are solely lacking there. If not Evans. We definitely need a monster TE.
KOKBILLS Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 I've posted this before....almost any team would trade the Bills their starting guard for the 9th pick. Not sure how else to dismiss this "draft a guard" talk. No way the Bills Draft an OG at #9...They proved last year that it's not their philosophy to take an OG high... There will however be a couple VERY good OT prospects available at #9...And that is definitely a possibility...
Dibs Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 We lost to three teams with worse records....... .....and we won 5 games against teams with a better record. What's your point?

There will however be a couple VERY good OT prospects available at #9...And that is definitely a possibility... Some people don't seem to understand that. They may draft a tackle by default, because it may be the BPA at their pick, but I don't think they will be going into the draft hoping that is what falls to them. I don't think an OT is gonna transform this offense. I think they should bring in a few new lineman, but not a 9th pick. I would rather have a linebacker. I guess TE would be my choice for "position that a top talent could have the most impact". I really believe they will go BPA, or a guy they really like as a leader.

As OGs make more money than RTs, I think the same logic you applied to drafting an OG would apply to drafting an OT(considering we are set at LT).
Awwufelloff Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Does anyone know how many spots we improved in our draft position because of the loss today? Has to be 5-6 better right? Also my first 3 rounds if management is satisfied with our QB situation: 1.) Big Tall Physical WR/ LB that can stop the run/rush QB 2.) Athletic TE that has great hands 3.) Guard.

Special K Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Plus we already have 17 tires. Mosely and only Mosely in the first. OL and TE are the priorities after that. How can people look at Woods, Goodwin and Stevie and say we need to pick Evans? You heard it here first....SJ has played his last down as a Buffalo Bill. Mike Evans or Ebron in the first. I also believe that defensive needs will be addressed through FA, as Pettine and his defensive scheme will be more attractive to FA's than our offense, so the draft will be heavy on the offensive side of the ball.
Prickly Pete Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Yeah, I think there will be a pretty big free agent signing.
BuffaloBaumer Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 No matter what, RT in the second. for first pick, LB or DT (whichever is better value.)
Jerry Jabber Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 And how many years have the Bills been drafting around the same position?
Reed83HOF Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 And how many years have the Bills been drafting around the same position? how maddening is that

How can people look at Woods, Goodwin and Stevie and say we need to pick Evans? How can people look at Woods, Goodwin and Stevie and say we don't need to pick Evans. (As an aside I hope the Bills didn't let Graham on the team plane. "Uh Sorry dude you can find your own ride from now on.")
Dibs Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 And how many years have the Bills been drafting around the same position? This next draft makes 3 years.

Maybe so Dibs...I would prefer a WR or a TE anyway...But we'll see... You heard it here first....SJ has played his last down as a Buffalo Bill. Mike Evans or Ebron in the first. I also believe that defensive needs will be addressed through FA, as Pettine and his defensive scheme will be more attractive to FA's than our offense, so the draft will be heavy on the offensive side of the ball. I pretty much agree...But I would be pretty shocked if they released Stevie...Though that may be more of an emotional response than a logical one...
Jerry Jabber Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 This next draft makes 3 years. It's pathetic. Over the past 14 years, the Bills average win/ loss record is 6-10. If the Bills really want to become a playoff team/Super Bowl contender, then they need to draft a real franchise QB, and not a project QB that could be the guy in a few years (which Glass Joe (Manuel) looks like another backup QB).
Endless Ike Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 (edited) in order of importance: #1- FRANCHISE QB (if peyton manning was our QB we would have 5 more wins , EJ will never be a franchise QB) #2- LG (upgrade the O-line, draft a LTand play him at RT, move pears to LG) #3- DT ( NEED NOSE TACKLE TO STOP THE RUN !!!) move Dareus to DE #4- TE (weakest position on team) #5- MLB (need to stop the run, move kiko to OLB) If you want us to draft an OG at #9 or a DT at #9 you are bonkers. We have a borderline great interior of the line. You stop the run with LBs. Good D-linemen exist to keep the OL off the backers, and make the occasional play, not to necessarily make the play themselves. Moving Dareus to DE is ludicrous. Drafting a QB at #9 is probably not good value if the QB desperate teams ahead of us draft as expected. The pick should be Barr in a perfect world or Mosley in a likely one. Mack is a great rusher, but we don't need that. How can people look at Woods, Goodwin and Stevie and say we don't need to pick Evans. (As an aside I hope the Bills didn't let Graham on the team plane. "Uh Sorry dude you can find your own ride from now on.") Bob Woods is a stud and had a very good rookie year considering the carousel at QB, what in the sam hill are you talking about? Edited December 30, 2013 by Endless Ike
transient Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 I didn't see the game. How did the Bills D return an INT for a TD and FG sans PAT in one play?
LB3 Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 If Barr falls we better jump all over him. Get a good te in the 2nd
Kirby Jackson Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 I'm thinking that Mack has to be the target. A big playmaker (either big WR or TE) in round 2 followed by a OL in round 3. I would be happy with Mack, Amaro/Seferian-Jenkins and some good OL. It's very possible
