Tipster19 Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 This would seem to make the most sense. We have a pretty good nucleus on defense but there is some age/injury at certain positions. This is the first aspect to win ball games and we do need some more O-Linemen who could help contribute to us controlling the clock more on offense. Our QBs should be adequate enough and we have more than suitable skilled position players with the WRs and our RB. We may need another RB who could more than just give MaGahee a rest but I do believe that this could be a 2nd day pick. This could hold true for the TE position as well. I'd be more than a little surprised if we deviate from this type of selection come Saturday.

I don't think they'll take a QB or RB. WR? Yeah, we may have a dozen of them on the roster, but Lee Evans may be the only one that can play. I wouldn't be suprised at all to see them draft a WR in R2 or 3 if they aren't sold on the retreads they've got battling for the #2 job. The TE position looks pretty damn weak, too. Everett and Euhus are the recieving threats at this position and neither can stay on the field. Both appear to be behind Brad Cieslak on the depth chart. Robert Royal was signed as a blocking TE. In the end, it wouldn't suprise me at all to see them draft either a WR or TE on Saturday. Lee Evans is the only thing they have resembling a proven, reliable recieving threat on the roster and even he isn't a sure thing.
Tipster19 Posted April 28, 2006 Author Posted April 28, 2006 I respect your opinion Brandon and I appreciate your response but I would be disappointed if we do draft a WR on the first day. As far as a TE, I could understand this in the 3rd rd if the Bills saw a good value but I do think that there would still be a valid TE that we could use in the 4th rd just as easily. What I do want more than anything would be that we draft players that would contribute and form a strong team unity concept. I believe that this is an important factor for Marv and Jauron and they will have some level of success in assembling these type of players.
ndirish1978 Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 I can see Stovall in the 3rd if he falls. I saw a few mocks taking him in the 4th but in the past week I have seen him going as high as early 2nd.
The Quebecer Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 This is how I address both lines on day 1 : Trade with CHI : we get 26 for 42 & 73 Trade with PHI : we get 14 & 45 for 8, 105, 134 At this point we have : 14, 26, 45, 70 @14: Eric Winston, OT @26: Davin Joseph, OG @45: John McCargo, DT @70: Rod Wright, DT On day 2, you look for hidden gems & sleepers with 143, 178, 216, 248

I do NOT want Wire back there. He should stay on teams ONLY!

I think that means we may very well take a CB with one of our first day picks. It wouldn't even shock me if we went with Huff instead of Bunkley or Haloti.

tennesseeboy Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 I'm not sure that its safe to say they will, but that should be the strategy. That being said there is always that surprise safety available in the second or the tight end who surprisingly gets to the third. I understand that there might be some deviation, but I really think this is all about the trenches this weekend.
WVUFootball29 Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 It would be a mistake to waste our first 4 picks on nothing but OL and DL. There are other holes that need to be filled on this team. Our secondary needs help too. We are down a starting Strong Safety and our corners are nothing to be feared right now. A defensive back sometime on Day one is needed. Danieal Manning from Abilene Christian in the 3rd would be a solid pickup for us at safety. To tell the truth, I would be a little upset if we used more than 2 of our first day picks on lineman, unless all our picks are going to start right from the beginning and I dont see that happening.
obie_wan Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 NO Bills should take the best differnce maker at each slot in the draft. To pass on playmakers for a lesser player at a position of perceived need results in a team of inferior players. If a top CB or LB is available, they should be strongly considered. Speed will be a strong factor for all players drafted.

mtj6 Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 I think the bills should use half of their first day picks on lineman, but dont have tunnel vision, this team does have other needs.

stuckincincy Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 Nice read on Manning there. The kid is a hard worker and that is what will bring him success in the NFL. 672862[/snapback] Heart matters. A couple of years ago, the B'gals signed a guy that was teaching or selling insurance or some such. Kevin Kaesviharn. CB/S/ST player; got pressed into starting service several times. Top player? No. But competent and useful - you bet. The bench is what it is - but having players that are halfway decent and give what they have - can fill in without looking totally lost - sure they get beat from time to time - really adds to a team. There had been a lot of ba-de-ba about Levy's FA acquisitions. I think he's trying to build a decent bench...
Milo Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 "...this team does have other needs." Ain't that the truth!
