LB3 Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 There are a lot of threads on here discussing who we should take at 9. This thread will be about who you DON'T want to see taken at 9 that could actually be an option for us. Basically, who is most likely to make you scream WTF when our pick is announced? My WTF pick would be Ha Ha Clinton Dix. If we let go of one of the best safeties in the league only to reach for a safety at 9, I will likely throw my pint glass at the TV. Second would be Manziel. I'm just not a believer.

GO BILLS!!! I think and hope you are right. But part of me just kind of expects the inevitable punch to the gut we generally get anytime things seem to be going our way.

We just assume an electric shock but maybe we'll get a biscuit this time. GO BILLS!!!
FluffHead Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 It would be so Bills to draft a DB named HaHa at 9.
eme123 Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 My brain tells me to take one of the LT's but my gut says don't pass on Ebron.
maddenboy Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 I started this same thread 2 weeks before the Dareus draft. Because I didnt want Cam. Today, I dont want OT Lewan. I just dont want the 3rd best of anything in the 9 hole. Including QB.

maddenboy Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 well, possibly because I can get the Best of something else, then still get the 3rd or 4th or 5th best OT later. The top 10 is for special players. Game-changers. These are the tired phrases used. But it just doesnt . . . feel right to draft the 3rd best anything at 9.
BuffaloRebound Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 (edited) If Clowney, Mack, Watkins, Evans, Robinson and Matthews are all gone, gotta hope someone wants to trade up for one of the QB's. Edited April 15, 2014 by BuffaloRebound
jr1 Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 I'll be disappointed with a defensive player since the Bills scored 105 less points than the Pats in the regular season
ExWNYer Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 I started this same thread 2 weeks before the Dareus draft. Because I didnt want Cam. Today, I dont want OT Lewan. I just dont want the 3rd best of anything in the 9 hole. Including QB. This is my stance, as well. No to Lewan.
sodbuster Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 Jonny Football. I don't think he will be there at 9, but if he is there at 9 and gone at 10…
KOKBILLS Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 I would not want any Defensive player at #9 unless his name is Clowney or Mack... I'm also still not crazy about Lewan's off-field stuff...But I do think he would make a great addition to the O-line as a player... I started this same thread 2 weeks before the Dareus draft. Because I didnt want Cam. Today, I dont want OT Lewan. I just dont want the 3rd best of anything in the 9 hole. Including QB. I'm a Michigan fan...And I'm not a huge supporter of Lewan because of the off-the-field stuff...I will say though that there is the belief among some that he will eventually be a better NFL player than Matthews...He is considered an elite prospect as an OT...You're not getting a 3rd best...You're more getting a guy that's tied for 2nd, with potentially a better upside than the guy he's tied with...You're getting an absolute elite athlete for the position...He's top notch athletically...But you're also getting a guy with off-field questions NFL teams have to be comfortable he's answered...
Rocky Landing Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 I think and hope you are right. But part of me just kind of expects the inevitable punch to the gut we generally get anytime things seem to be going our way. What'd I miss? Is something going our way?
Solomon Grundy Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 I'll be disappointed with a defensive player since the Bills scored 105 less points than the Pats in the regular season But if the Bills had a player that prevented the Pats from completing 60% on third and long then the points wouldn't add up. We need a player on defense to make opposing teams know they weren't completing this possession, ala Cornelius Bennett, Bryce Paup!
smapdi Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 Pretty much any defensive player @ 9 other then Clowney or Mack. Both will be gone so if the pick isn't offense, I will definitely be saying wtf. The offense is just so far behind & they invested a 1st in Manuel last year; they need to get him some help. I'm all for the first 3 picks going offense unless someone shocking falls. The line definitely needs a new RT & getting a OG that could push for a starting job would be nice. Also need a new TE. Too many holes on offense to ignore

Rob's House Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 well, possibly because I can get the Best of something else, then still get the 3rd or 4th or 5th best OT later. The top 10 is for special players. Game-changers. These are the tired phrases used. But it just doesnt . . . feel right to draft the 3rd best anything at 9. I wonder if the Browns are glad they opted for the #1 TE over the #3 QB in 2004.
machine gun kelly Posted April 15, 2014 Posted April 15, 2014 No to Safety, RB, QB. yes to most talented T, DE, TE, or possibly WR if special.
