FTW_BillsFan Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 If you truely believe that Huff will be a Safety instead of a DB, then there is no way you take him at #8. Hopefully, we will trade down, but if not you take the best available at the time. And it sure as hell better not be him. I like trading down w/ Minn or getting Denver's picks. The only players that you take from the University of Texas is RB's. All the rest suck. Prime Example: Mike Williams. They all smoke the peyote down there in Austin. : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frogger Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 I'm wondering if frogger means Anthony Smith from Syracuse. 629574[/snapback] I know for a fact that he is. I like Smith a lot, I watched him play the last few years. I thought he was a good player, however since Mel kiper felt the same way I thought I was wrong about him. But during the senior bowl, I was listening to NFL radio on Sirius, and the coaches singled him out in the interview just saying how impressed they were, he hits hard, and he is always around the ball. which made me take back how I felt post kiper. 6'0 200, with the potential to get bigger without losing speed. Also similar coaching as Huff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, cedric has had one year. Let's see if he pans out. You can't deny when Rickey was on the field he was a great RB. Yes, he is a headcase. Priest Holmes also came from UT.

Now, if you were starting a football team would you rather have (with your #8 pick). A franchise DT, DE or Safety? Safeties are a dime a dozen. You can pick up a safety that is just as good as Huff at #8 as you could in the 2nd or 3rd round. Roy Williams went #8 when he was drafted. Are you saying Huff is as good as Roy Williams?

There is nobody in the second round that has the upside that huff has, im not saying that there is no one that will turn out to be better, but huff is certainly the best shot at a great one, not a second or third rounder.

Personally, I would rather stop the run by having a young, stong defensive line. I don't think the difference between the #1 SS and the #5 SS in the league is that great.
