Nothing earth shattering here:

http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=jm-mockdraft030707&prov=yhoo&type=lgns

http://us.i1.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/us/sp/v/nfl/teams/1/50x50c/buf.gif 12. Buffalo Bills (http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/teams/buf/) – Patrick Willis, linebacker, Mississippi. As expected, the Bills lost a pair of starting defenders – cornerback Nate Clements (http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/players/5468/) and linebacker London Fletcher-Baker (http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/players/4539/) – at the start of free agency. They have last year's second-round choice Ashton Youboty (http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/players/7819/) on the bench, and the depth of this year's cornerback position is such that they could dip back into that market in the next two rounds and come up with competition for the spot vacated by Clements. Meanwhile, the loss of leadership in the middle is much greater because they currently would slide outside linebacker Angelo Crowell (http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/players/6430/) back inside where he played a few years ago. However, adding the instinctive and impressively athletic Willis to an already strong nucleus would allow them to keep much better cohesion on the defensive side of the ball.

Found this mock on another site called Rotoworld, first time The Answer has seen this name associated with the Bills:

12. Buffalo – Pittsburgh CB Darrelle Revis

Nearly devoid of decent corners with Nate Clements gone and Kiwaukee Thomas still on the free agent market, the Bills add a player that fits perfectly Perry Fewell's defense. Revis can also take some pressure off Terrence McGee in the return game if need be.

I think Willis is a lock at this point.

The Yahoo mock is the 1st one I've seen that has us taking a viable candidate!!!
I'll have to pay more attention to what they come up with in the future...

Well now we're basically forced to draft Marshawn Lynch, in my opinion. We have no RB now that Dillon isn't coming in. I went from happy to pissed about our backfield in the matter of a couple hours.

I disagree my man.

I think Bush (we may have to move up a couple to get him with that second round pick) is a very strong candidate. I also think Antonio Pittman could be a target in round two. Don't look past the kid from Penn State or even Kenny Irons in round two, or Darius Walker in round three.

I just do not see us taking a RB, not at #12. Perhaps we move down and we draft Lynch.. Dont get me wrong, if marv likes him he doesnt care if its a "reach" to take him at 12.. Just not feeling Marv taking Lynch at 12 right now- not with such a questionable LB corp right now.
