mary owen Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 just as I suspected: 3. Buffalo Bills: The Bills were in a great spot at No. 8. They had at least two teams -- Denver and Minnesota -- calling up offering draft choices to move up. Those teams were looking for quarterbacks. The Bills could have worked a deal with the Eagles, who were considering a move to No. 8 to take a defensive tackle. Taking a safety, Donte Whitner, at No. 8 instead of accepting one of those deals just wasn't a good value. Sure, maybe they weren't getting offers that matched the trade value chart, but wouldn't it have been better to move down and get anything extra. They would still have been able to get Whitner. The Bills feared losing Whitner to the Lions, who didn't get Michael Huff at No. 9. That wasn't going to happen because the Lions were taking linebacker Ernie Sims if they didn't get Huff, who went to the Raiders. The Bills went a little too conservative. (re: bold above) HOW THE HELL DOES HE KNOW? I'd trust DJ's judgement over his any day, especially when you consider he coached in DET last year. You think maybe he might have a good idea on their wants and needs??? it's very likely he has a mole or two still within the Lions organization as well. As you know, scouts are working and looking at players well before the offseason. He would know better if they had a b-line on Whitner over Sims. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/draft06/colu...john&id=2427335 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
