I have mixed emotions about this. If we went out and signed a guy like Briggs and maybe got an OG and TE.....perhaps this wouldnt be to bad. Regardless of where he is taken I think Revis is one of the better CB's in the draft so the pick itself doesnt bother my to much.
Eh overall id give this a C+.
Round 1: Darrelle Revis, CB Pitt
Round 2: Quinn Pitcock, DT Ohio
Round 3: John Lee Higgins, WR El Paso

Round 1: Darrelle Revis, CB Pitt
The Bills quietly had a nice year in 2006, somewhat overachieving at 7-9 and getting good play from their defense. J.P. Losman actually looked like a legitimate NFL starter at times, hooking up with Lee Evans for a bunch of big plays. Rookie DT John McCargo did not play because of injury, but rookie safeties Donte Whitner and Ko Simpson look like a solid tandem for years to come. The Bills also got good play from LT Jason Peters, and despite OT being an area of concern in the past, they might finally be set there with Peters and RT Terrance Pennington. This offseason, they could look to add a run-stuffing DT or some depth at LB. However, with CB Nate Clements a free agent, they could use another cover-guy in the secondary. Darrelle Revis of Pittsburgh is one of the best CB prospects in the draft. Fast and athletic, Revis was not thrown at much as a junior at Pitt, and if you saw his punt return for touchdown against West Virginia, you know why.
ALSO CONSIDER: DT Alan Branch, LB Patrick Willis, CB Leon Hall

Shows great ability to get behind the line. Excellent power and upper body strength. Wide frame plugs holes and is at best against the run.
I think Revis and Pitcock will be good players on the next level, I'm not sure who John Lee Higgins is though, so I'm not going to comment on him until I watch some film. I wouldn't mind a draft something like this though:
