DeMECO RYANS, LB, Alabama

Original pick: Donte Whitner, SS, Ohio State
Ryans has consistently made plays all over the field and is our defensive rookie of the year thus far. With London Fletcher-Baker and Takeo Spikes, the Bills linebacking corps is getting a little old. There's no way Ryans should have lasted into the second round. </TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>

DONTE WHITNER, S, Ohio State

Original pick: John McCargo, DT, North Carolina State
We could have given the Bills' the much higher rated Michael Huff in this slot, but the former Longhorns safety has been virtually invisible in Oakland as a rookie. Instead we award Whitner to Buffalo, thereby proving our point that the Bills didn't need to take him at No. 8, because he would have been available much lower. </TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>

I personally think this whole article was a waste of time.

Yeah. I agree. Hindsight is 20/20.

This is possibly the most pointless and inane article in the history of the press.

Which is why I posted it. Don Banks got paid to write this up, and it is completely worthless.
