BrooklynBills Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 In the last two drafts run by Levy and Co., the Bills have used there first pick to take who they thought was the most talented player and then trading into the late first/early second to take a player at a position of need. While Levy has moved on, he is serving as a consultant on this draft. Is there any reason to think that we won't be doing this again this year, with the most likely scenario being to trade up to get a WR with a late first round pick?

I think both Whitner and Lynch were needs more then they were BPA.
DrDawkinstein Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 I don't agree. I think both Whitner and Lynch were needs more then they were BPA. yeah i think he has it backwards too
Brandon Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 I don't agree. I think both Whitner and Lynch were needs more then they were BPA. Agreed. Whitner was certainly considered a 'reach', while some thought Lynch was as well.
BrooklynBills Posted April 24, 2008 Author Posted April 24, 2008 I mean drafting a player they think can immediately step in and play at 11 (Harvey, Rivers, Clady, Albert, Merling) and then getting a player that has potential to be a solid starter in the future (Sweed, Hardy, Davis, Flowers).
Oneonta Buffalo Fan Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Agreed. Whitner was certainly considered a 'reach', while some thought Lynch was as well. But in the end, the front office knows much more than we do and it has showed.
PNW_Bills_Fan Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 But in the end, the front office knows much more than we do and it has showed. I think this group knows what they are doing. I would not be surprised to see them doing some trading up or down during this whole weekend. I really like the Lito trade idea. If we do that then our D will be one of the best in the league.
