Virgil Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 We are now at pick 25 and NONE of the WR's are off the board. Many teams who need a WR have also passed. There is no way that all the GM's are collectively dumb. Something's gotta be up. Keep the faith
ax4782 Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 I think you are right. There must be some reason that none of these WRs are going. We may be able to get Devin Thomas at #41 at the rate things are going.
drnykterstein Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 There is no way that all the GM's are collectively dumb. You are going to have to prove that. I don't believe it for a moment.
CJPearl2 Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 You mean something YOU, not WE, don't know. A number of us here have been pleading with all of YOU that WR was weak this year and the Bills wouldn't pick WR at #11.
In-A-Gadda-Levitre Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 maybe the collective experts don't think the WRs are that good or deserving of a 1st round choice

Keep the faith A perfect example of the FACT: We, and mock "pros", don't know SQUAT compared to the people who work for NFL teams.
Virgil Posted April 26, 2008 Author Posted April 26, 2008 Not a single WR taken in the first round.....
BADOLBILZ Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 A perfect example of the FACT: We, and mock "pros", don't know SQUAT compared to the people who work for NFL teams. The average pro scout is about the equivalent of a gymn teacher in terms of skill, and yet some people want to mystify the profession. If Mel Kiper ran the Bills draft for the past 10 years, this team would be no worse off. I'm not saying he's better than a pro GM, I'm saying there ain't much difference. The things a head like Kiper can't quantify when evaluating players.....like desire.....pro personnel evaluators struggle with as well. And in general, most players slotted in the early rounds by the "amateurs", end up getting drafted in the early rounds, so crapshoot that, folks. If it was that hard.....the Pro Bowl wouldn't be little more than a re-union of former 1st and 2nd round picks.

Dr. Fong Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 Redskins jump up and get Thomas. Man I wish the Bills had done something to get him. Oh well.
Oneonta Buffalo Fan Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 Redskins jump up and get Thomas. Man I wish the Bills had done something to get him. Oh well. Trust the team. They know things better than we do for the past 3 years.
Dr. Fong Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 Trust the team. They know things better than we do for the past 3 years. Keep drinking the Kool-Aid man.
obie_wan Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 A perfect example of the FACT: We, and mock "pros", don't know SQUAT compared to the people who work for NFL teams. you may not know squat. but there is a faction that has been aware of the overhyped status of these WRs. They are tall - but not much else. 2 WRs off the board and none of the "TALL" WRs
