Astrobot Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 I think the Bills are finished with major acquisitions in FA. As for the draft, I would take a different approach. 1) RB Marshawn Lynch, California 2) ILB David Harris, Michigan 3) CB Fred Bennett, South Carolina 3) OG Manuel Ramirez, Texas Tech (expected pick for trading McGahee) 4) RB Dwayne Wright, Fresno State Most will immediately notice that this draft lacks a DT. I think this is a very weak year at the position and do not advocate drafting a DT just for the sake of drafting a DT. Branch and Okoye are the only two I feel would make any real impact. Given that, I would direct this draft toward maximizing all aspects of the Bills own running game. To that end, I would draft Marshawn Lynch at 12 (assuming the character issues check out; I think they will) with Ramirez as a run blocking RG prospect. Wright gives them a quality #2. Ideally, I'd like to see them sign a FA #2 RB, however. Meanwhile, Harris gives them a quality MLB prospect, while Bennett competes with Youboty, Greer and Thomas (if re-signed) for the #2 CB spot. I like your list. I think we're still going to sign a FA LB (either ILB or OLB), so maybe the OG comes out of Round 2.
DrDawkinstein Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 1 Willis LB 2 Hunt or Irons RB 3 CB, not sure who yet... thats all i got right now
sarmanuscg07 Posted March 3, 2007 Author Posted March 3, 2007 I'll tell you what. I'll make sure Marv knows that he can keep him on the team, as long as he promises not to send you Anderson's training table meal bill. How's that – Fair? Sounds fair to me. ok froto.,... shouldn't you be listening to burl ives and playing magic or something?
DrDawkinstein Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 1 Willis LB2 Hunt or Irons RB 3 CB, not sure who yet... thats all i got right now actually i may change this to 1 CB 2 ILB 3 RB just based on need, not talent at those draft spots...
FightClub Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 How is our offensive line problem solved? We still need a RG. Langston Walker is the new RG. Pennington will be given the chance to continue at RT. He played well for a rookie last year.
Max997 Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 I hope we resign Gandy and move him to RG. He didn't play too bad at LG and I think he'll be a good fit. Like I've said numerous times before: you can't have a Pro Bowler at every position! Gandy was terrible at LG in my opinion, Ive never seen a guard beat with a speed rush as much as Gandy was beat last year...I dont even want the guy on the team next year
DrDawkinstein Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 Langston Walker is the new RG. Pennington will be given the chance to continue at RT. He played well for a rookie last year. i think this is the best plan as well.
