bluenews Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 How does Willis go this high? I haven't seen any draft scenarios with him going in the top 20, let alone top 10. I think he'll be an excellent pro, but not worthy of a top-15 selection. That's why I can see Buffalo trading down if their guy isn't there. Of course, some argue we should have done that last season. I see Buffalo trading down. They'll go defense in Round 1 and 2. And in Round 1 they'll go CB if Okoye is gone. Redskins signed MLB-LFB
H2o Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 Gotta take Willis, Patrick that is, if he's still on the board.
Git'er Done Posted March 5, 2007 Posted March 5, 2007 Redskins signed MLB-LFB I really don't think the Bills are just assuming they will pick Patrick Willis. Like "we can get O-linemen now, and a free agent running back" cause Patrick Willis is gonna start at linebacker" I think they will try to get another linebacker in FA, maybe an average no-name guy. I think they will choose between a running back or a linebacker or possibly a CB, and pick the guy they feel will have the biggest impact. Drafting strictly for need is for losers. We certainly need a running back as much as we need linebacker (assuming McGahee is gone). I have said before, high pick RB that doesn't live up to his draft status is just about a wasted pick because only one back is on the field. A linebacker that doesn't live up to his draft status can still start, he just isn't a gamebreaker you still get some value. People keep saying that running back in the second round are a good value, that might be more true of 2nd round linebackers. Check out how many Super Bowl winners have a #1 draft choice running back, especially the teams that win more than one. Lots of running back are busts, I prefer the Bills play the odds and use the #1 on a back.
