Brandon Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 I'd guess that their interest is legitimate. Look at their WR corps. Its horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvermike Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 I'm not sure I get the ploy - if the Bills were on the fence about Thomas, they wouldn't pass figuring they could get him in the second round; they'd pass knowing that he was gone to another team.

K-9 Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Sh*t! If this is true we better trade up to #8 to make sure we get him. GO BILLS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago is in desperate need of OT help. If the Bills trade down with a team like KC, KC would most likely be taking an OT as could Denver meaning Chicago gets leftovers.

If the KC trade has some truth to it that was reported on the board earlier I wouldn't panic, make the trade and get the guy that you want at #17. Chicago wants an OT from what I've heard.

Lurker Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 I thought I read somewhere that prospects couldn't make any more visits after today. Florio's a dick.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 here's a crazy idea, but hear me out: stay at 11 and pick the guy thats highest on our board. even if it is a WR. and even if all the teams behind us "promise" not to pick him. i dont know where i come up with this stuff sometimes...

But what if its not a reciever?????? Don't you know that the future of the Bills depends on us drafting a WR in the first round this year, even there are 2 DEs, 3 OTs, 2 LBs that are widely regarded as having better futures in the NFL. Don't you know that we are set at every other position besides WR. P.S. The Bills met with Devin Thomas a few months ago...his name then was Bryant Johnson...same player.

Snorom Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 I'll take James Hardy over Thomas... and I do not believe the Bills are that interested in Thomas. My prediciton is the Bills WILL NOT DRAFT THOMAS Just look at the college career of Hardy and compare it to Thomas Sweed or Kelly. Hardy's stats dominated all of them... 36 TD's in 32 college games is amazing. Thomas has significantly more catches in college then any of those 4... and he has awesome height and jumping ability. The Bills want Hardy at WR not Thomas IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need a wr at all costs. Regardless that the dropoff between say Devin Thomas- Andre Caldwell/Early Doucet isn't that big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dwight Drane Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 I think Chicago is serious. There may be a run on WRs from #20 and on, so Buffalo is looking good by trying to get to 17 or 19 with KC and Philly. I don't think the Bills are convinced with Thomas, so they will trade down and hope Chicago takes the pressure off of them so they can grab a guy they want. I can see them moving up into the 1st again with the added KC pick and a 3rd. My guess....1)Malcolm Kelly 1a) Antione Cason 2) John Carlson They all fit the mold, and they all fill needs.
