BeastMode54 Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 If Peters doesnt get a new deal and they trade him, Pettigrew might make more sense. We will need strong blocking and that is what he provides.
AlbanyBill Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 I used to be all about Pettigrew but I'm hoping we can fill other holes than TE first
_ROOKIE_ Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 I think we may draft this guy at #11 after hearing DJ at the coaches breakfast,
ans4e64 Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 ya, but we'd have to give up at least a fourth, probably a third to get Scheffler. And that's a bad thing? Scheffler is a better TE than anyone sitting there in the 3rd and 4th rounds. If you're going to use one of your picks in rounds one to four on a TE, you might as well use your last one and save the earlier picks for the more pressing needs. Not to mention Scheffler is a proven NFL TE/receiving threat, as opposed to taking a chance on someone who's never played a down of NFL football and hoping he pans out. I'd gladly trade a 4th rounder for Scheffler.

thewildrabbit Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 ya, but we'd have to give up at least a fourth, probably a third to get Scheffler. The thing is, Scheffler gives the Bills that deep middle TE receiving threat that Jauron mentioned that the team needs. I'd be be thinking more of a great blocker then receiver at this point because the Bills don't have a dominating blocking TE atm.They really need to keep Edwards from getting killed.

I'd rather have a TE like Pettigrew who could help us both in the running and passing game. If we decide not to draft Pettigrew, then I wouldn't be opposed at all in trading a fourth round pick for a player like Scheffler.
billnutinphoenix Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 If he can start right away and be a factor, I'd pick him in a heartbeat...
