bills4bowl21 Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 now with the houston & atl trade .. does this change anything for the bills? and no one has found a mock draft w/ the new draft order have they?
Brandon Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 I don't think it changes anything, except that Adrian Peterson goes 10th instead of 8th and that he just lost some money in the process.
JuanGuzman Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 I don't think it changes anything, except that Adrian Peterson goes 10th instead of 8th and that he just lost some money in the process. I see Atlanta as the team more likely to draft Adrian Peterson than the Texans. The Texans just signed Ahman Green to a substantial contract, re-signed Ron Dayne and Gregg Knapp i think believes that you can add quality RBs later in the draft. Where as Bobby Petrino taking over in Atlanta might signal in a change from the zone blocking schemes that suited the styles of Warrick Dunn and Jerious Norwood.
The Tomcat Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 now with the houston & atl trade .. does this change anything for the bills? and no one has found a mock draft w/ the new draft order have they? What is the trade?
Brandon Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 What is the trade? The Falcons received the Texans 8th overall pick and 2nd round pick this year, plus their 2nd next year in exchange for Schaub and their 10th overall pick.
Mile High Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 The Falcons received the Texans 8th overall pick and 2nd round pick this year, plus their 2nd next year in exchange for Schaub and their 10th overall pick. Good trade for Atlanta.
The Tomcat Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 Good trade for Atlanta. Wow...I think so too. There would be a bunch of backup QB's out there. They drop 2, still in the top 10, get another 2nd this AND next year....again I'll say it...WOW!
DrDawkinstein Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 Dumb trade by the Texans as far as what they gave up, but i guess they are desperate for a QB...

Here's an updated one, first one I found: http://www.eastcoastsportsnews.com/2007draft.html I think it's pretty realistic too with good analysis, not just some dusch trying names out there
jri111 Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 actually here's another one too... http://www.nfldraftpro.com/mockdraft.html funny, both of them have us taking Peterson
Buffalo Mike1 Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 Here's an updated one, first one I found: http://www.eastcoastsportsnews.com/2007draft.htmlI think it's pretty realistic too with good analysis, not just some dusch trying names out there Okoye going 6th to the Skins-ouch.
jri111 Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 Okoye going 6th to the Skins-ouch. That's where I think he'll go too. I live in DC and Okoye was in town the other day for a meeting with Snyder and the rest of the front office. The local news reported that it's a pretty good indication of what the Skins were thinking. If the front office liked him enough to bring him in, it would mean that they did so to see if Snyder would give his seal of approval. Of course with Okoye's potential, character, etc... they said they didn't see why he wouldn't. Of Course, this could be a smoke screen, but I think Okoye is pretty safe at 6 and there's not too much of a threat of him going before that (because of other teams needs and the other players out there), so they may be a little more inclined to show their hand....
John from Riverside Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 I dont know...with AP on the board when we pick I see an opportunity to pick up some picks and still get Lynch..... I dont know what the hell to do....
freester Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 I dont know...with AP on the board when we pick I see an opportunity to pick up some picks and still get Lynch..... I dont know what the hell to do.... If we move back, there is a no way we are drafting Lynch with his off the field issues
jri111 Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 I dont know...with AP on the board when we pick I see an opportunity to pick up some picks and still get Lynch..... I dont know what the hell to do.... I see your reasoning and it may make sense, but I think it would have to be one hell of an offer to pass up on Petterson. BUT if some team will give you something like a 2nd and 3rd and another high pick next year, then maybe i would. Then you would have 1 first, 2 seconds and 3 thirds. You can do some damage with that. ALOT of flexibiliyl Also have to rememer you would need a trading partner. Who would trade up to 12 to get Petterson? Green Bay? Not if they can sit at 15 and get lynch. Maybe the Titans at 19. I think that would be a good spot for us (i'm sure either Puz or Timmons would be there). The thing is, You don't pass on taking Peterson unless you get the EXACT deal you want. You hold all the cards. That said, how about a pick and trade senario. Take Peterson and then see what teams are willing to offer! Could pull something off like SD did a few years ago. That said, any other team that picks before us can do this too...
Brandon Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 What off the field issues does Lynch have? The 'off the field issues' seem to be very questionable at best. You can find several articles detailing both incidents, but this gives a quick summary: http://www.jsonline.com/story/index.aspx?id=569818
