In space no one can hear Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 I live here in Baltimore and I never heard a word about S being considered for them. Does Ed Reed mean anything to you? 674871[/snapback] Does the fact that Ed Reed plays ONE safety position mean anything to you? There other starter Will Demps left via free-agency....they need another one.
Lurker Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 see, so everyone saying he would be there at 15..... stfu 674840[/snapback] Talk is cheap, apparently.
Ralonzo Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 Colts should have selected Trent Dilfer. 674884[/snapback] It's obvious the Bills don't understand what the draft is for.
jarthur31 Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 The Ravens wanted Whittner. But Buffalo took him so their #2 was Ngata maybe. 674914[/snapback] No. Ngata was wearing a Ravens cap when ESPN interviewed him from his home. I think he was being targeted all along. Besides, you know Ray Lewis has a team of thugs at Ravens HQ to make sure they get somebody to help him.
Lurker Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 The Ravens would have nabbed him at 12, so taking him at 8 might not have been so bad. 674855[/snapback] Where does this keep coming from? The Ravens have been targeting a wide-body DT to replace Maake Kemoeatu who left in FA. Looks like they got their man, too.
John Adams Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 Where does this keep coming from? The Ravens have been targeting a wide-body DT to replace Maake Kemoeatu who left in FA. Looks like they got their man, too. 675006[/snapback] ESPN was talking about it. So was Whitner.
Lurker Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 ESPN was talking about it. So was Whitner. 675019[/snapback] See Post #22 Marv: " So Dante, are any other teams interested in you?" Whitner: "Well, the Ravens said they're gonna take me" Marv: "Wow, that's really interesting." Western Union couldn't have delivered the message any better. High probability that Marv got played, IMO.
jarthur31 Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 The reply before this one is highly amusing. Please sir, may I have some more?
obie_wan Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 See Post #22Marv: " So Dante, are any other teams interested in you?" Whitner: "Well, the Ravens said they're gonna take me" Marv: "Wow, that's really interesting." Western Union couldn't have delivered the message any better. High probability that Marv got played, IMO. 675028[/snapback] that's what happens when you lock onto one player. Marv did what he always does - sticks to his draft board no matter what- even if a trade down would offer more value. Too bad Marv never trades on draft day
Arkady Renko Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 See Post #22Western Union couldn't have delivered the message any better. High probability that Marv got played, IMO. 675028[/snapback] Sort of reminds me of when the genius Donahoe got played by Rosenhaus w/ McGahee. He could have traded down to pick him too...
BuffOrange Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 The Bills filled a position of desparate need. Ngata and Bunkley both had question marks--Triplett helps fill the D-line hole. Whitner does not have question marks--he's a fast strong hard-hitting safety who will maul on special teams. The Ravens would have nabbed him at 12, so taking him at 8 might not have been so bad. If the Bills had an offer from Detriot, AZ, or St. Luois, then they could have risked the trade, but it sounds like they got one of the only impact players (for them) available at that pick. 674855[/snapback] Larry Triplett isn't going to fill sh--. The DL is going to suck donkey balls.....again.
jarthur31 Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 P.S., to get back to the original thread, will Sirius have this up at their site or will the Bills put it up? When will Buffalo have his video PC up?
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 I think the Bills were targetting this guy all along. 674907[/snapback] And that, in a nutshell, is a problem. he wasn't even the best S in the draft.
C.Biscuit97 Posted April 29, 2006 Posted April 29, 2006 And that, in a nutshell, is a problem. he wasn't even the best S in the draft. 675095[/snapback] Not to be an @ss, but how do you know? Because Mel Kiper said he wasn't??? I hated this pick at first. It didn't make sense. But then I realized something, Marv and Dick Jauron probably know their team better than I do. So while I don't completely like the pick, who the hell knows? He just turned 21, runs a 4.45, has a good character, likes to hit and could possibly become a corner. Give it time. And trust in Marv (please be right Marv ).

Who cares whether the guy has ever played a down of NFL football, he obviously sucks more than a couple of other guys we could have drafted. Welcome to Buffalo, sir. You suck! Hard to believe players ever want to leave. Go go retard rollercoaster. Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

I was shocked that he was chosen at this spot but certainly a position of need. He may turn out to be a great pick, only time will tell. I have seen others say that he was as much a player on the Ohio St. defense as AJ Hawk. He most certainly fills a position of need and in the cover2 will do well.

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! 675155[/snapback] Yeah, unless you're happy with the selection you're part of the retard rollercoaster. Talk about a retarded PoV. It couldn't be that there's actually a way to have a logical problem with the selection. I notice that everybody calls the posters who are conistantly critical of the Bills names on yet they're right year after year. I think it's time for another DOOOOOOMMMMED post.

I doubt anyone outside of Harv or R.Rich knows anymore about him than I do. I don't think it matters who we'd have picked. These same posters would be whining and bitching. The negativity around this team is as big a reason it's not successful as any other.
