scribo Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 After he finishes meeting with the Green Bay Packers today, free-agent defensive tackle Ryan Pickett is scheduled to visit the Buffalo Bills as he weighs potential contract offers from three NFL teams. Offers from three teams and he is still coming to chat with Marv and Dick? Nice. http://www.packersnews.com/archives/news/pack_25147174.shtml Posted this morning.
ans4e64 Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 i think those other teams, especially green bay, will offer him way more money than we can, so unless he really wants to be in buffalo, which could actually happen due to the rams coaches, kiss him goodbye

They may still re-sign Graddy Jackson if they feel Pickett will cost too much. Pickett is worth more to the Bills than he is to the Packers IMHO.

d_wag Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 RP will be here today according to KFFL. 626591[/snapback] hopefully he doesn't leave, but i really would like to see some OL visits mixed in here.........both lines need to be addressed, just not the DL
MadBuffaloDisease Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 Must have been who Marv was talking about in his PC on Saturday.
Acantha Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 hopefully he doesn't leave, but i really would like to see some OL visits mixed in here.........both lines need to be addressed, just not the DL 626649[/snapback] yeah, but another DT signing really opens up the draft for the OL. There are some really good guards coming out this year. In a trade down situation it would be possible to get 3 starters for the line out of this draft. Obviously too much youth on the line won't be great this year...but really, this year isn't gonig to be our year anyway.
BillsGuyInMalta Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 Ryan Pickett is all well and good but...uhhhm...O-Line? Hello? Bueller?
Thailog80 Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 Ryan Pickett is all well and good but...uhhhm...O-Line? Hello? Bueller? 626712[/snapback] Was it over when the Jerman was re-signed?
TheMadCap Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 Was it over when the Jerman was re-signed? 626716[/snapback] OMG. Bastard. Thanks for the coffee on the monitor....
KRT88 Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 I am listen to the web cast of Len Pasquarelli talk about Pickett and wow, he is high on him! If we could sign him, where do we head in the draft? Th he ia talking a $10 million signing bonus.
BillsGuyInMalta Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 If we can sign Pickett, I'm guessing we take Michael Huff at #8 or trade down and stockpile O-Lineman. That is if nothing goofy happens like D'Brickashaw or Mario Williams falls, in which case OBVIOUSLY take either one of them.
richNjoisy Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 I am listen to the web cast of Len Pasquarelli talk about Pickett and wow, he is high on him! If we could sign him, where do we head in the draft? Th he ia talking a $10 million signing bonus. 626757[/snapback] One would think that with 2 DT's signed that that leaves us free to draft Huff right? Maybe Davis. Unless by some miracle Ferguson falls to us but I doubt we can get him without trading up - in fact, if Brees goes to the saints, then maybe New Orleans drafts DaBrick. Of course, what should the Bills do if Vince Young falls to #8??? We'd have to take him or trade down for $$$ picks
BillsGuyInMalta Posted March 13, 2006 Posted March 13, 2006 Of course, what should the Bills do if Vince Young falls to #8??? We'd have to take him or trade down for $$$ picks 626763[/snapback] Oh man, if Vince Young falls the Bills are going to rape some poor team for all its worth in a trade-down offer. Check out the selection order of the few picks after the Bills #8: 8: Buffalo 9: Detroit 10: Arizona 11: St. Louis 12: Cleveland 13: Baltimore 14: Philly 15: Atlanta 16: Miami 17: Minnesota All those teams in bold need a starting QB. Now, with Detroit at #9, and everyone knowing the Bills wont take Vince Young, I bet you that Marv's phone will be ringing off the hook from the Ravens and Vikings trying to get ahead of Detroit who would definitely take Young at #9 if he falls. Keep your fingers crossed that Young does indeed fall, because it means the Bills can pick up at least an extra 2nd rounder in the process. By the way, I didnt include Miami because they're either going to get Culpepper or Drew Brees.

Figure, we'd have to switch with GB and what would that take?

That is if nothing goofy happens like D'Brickashaw or Mario Williams falls, in which case OBVIOUSLY take either one of them. 626760[/snapback] I could live w/ that. BTW, I like your first 3 picks (in your sig). I'd be very happy if we started our draft that way.

By the way, I didnt include Miami because they're either going to get Culpepper or Drew Brees. 626773[/snapback] I don't think Baltimore is really on that list of needing a QB. Boller really came on at the end of last year and actually started to look pretty good. Is Jamal Lewis a UFA or were there just rumors he was going to get cut? I think they'll probably looking at DeAngelo Williams or Lendell White with that pick, but who knows.
