Mopreme Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 Can't say I'm too thrilled with Bill's draft this year. Disappointed with lack of trade for Henry. Do like third round pick with Everett though. Parrish is too small to be really effective. Who about Raymond Preston as center, why didn't the Bills pick Jason Brown? Is he a better prospect than Preston? Who is actually better? Hopefully for Round 5 the Bills can get either Walter Reyes as backup for Willis or Hawthorne at DT. A taller corner with speed would be nice too, no more of these short guys, please! Thughts.
Campy Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 Brown seems unable to control his weight. He's already had ankle and knee injuries, and gaining more weight will hurt his mobility from the things I've read about him. Preston on the other hand, is very smart and doesn't miss line calls, knows what every linemen's assignment is, and has allowed only 3 sacks in 3 years as a starter (none last year, 1 the year before, and 2 the year before. I'm much happier with Preston than I would be with Brown.
Josh Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 You also have to remember that the Bengals had the opportunity to take Brown...and they picked a different center.
Coach Tuesday Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 We'll be running lots of shotgun. Preston can do this. That explains the pick.
CoachChuckDickerson Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 We'll be running lots of shotgun. Preston can do this. That explains the pick. 316544[/snapback] we are going to be a power running team out of the shotgun? interesting twist.
Webster Guy Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 I always thought centers weren't supposed to be tall. Preston is 6'5, isn't he?

JDG Posted April 24, 2005 Posted April 24, 2005 Didn't they say that Kent Hull was too small to play Center too? JDG
