Isaac (Milwaukee): Now that the Bills might be off the Marshawn Lynch bandwagon, do you see him slipping to the Packers? If so, do they take him, or pass hoping to get Michael Bush in the 2nd?
http://assets.espn.go.com/i/sn2.gif Matt Mosley: (12:25 PM ET ) At a recent pro day, I was surprised to hear that so many scouts were in love with Lynch. That said, there's a thought that you can acquire talented backs as late as the third and fourth rounds. I know the Cowboys are pleased with what fourth-rounder Marion Barber has done. Only grab an RB if he's special. And that's Peterson.
Mike (Buffalo): Hey I just talked to a certain cabby here in Buffalo and mark this down - Revis is going number 12. Great kid, pittsburgh to Buffalo isn't that far. I think he could easily do two contracts in Buffalo...spread the word!
http://assets.espn.go.com/i/sn2.gif Matt Mosley: (12:33 PM ET ) I love kids out of Pittsburgh, but you've hit the bars early if you think Revis is going at No. 12. Unless the kid ran a 4.1 that somehow escaped my attention, he'll go somewhere in the 20s.
Jamil (Cleveland): You're Phil Savage. What first-round pick makes the most sense for the Cleveland Browns - Brady Quinn or Adrian Peterson?
http://assets.espn.go.com/i/sn2.gif Matt Mosley: (12:51 PM ET ) Take Peterson and never look back. If he can avoid injuries, he'll eventually be a top-five back. And you don't have to break in another quarterback. Give Frye a little time.
Daniel (Athens, Ga): If Peterson doesn't get drafted by the Browns, where do you see him going? The next team that I see that needs a RB of his ability is Houston.
http://assets.espn.go.com/i/sn2.gif Matt Mosley: (1:02 PM ET ) In the Texans' dreams! The Browns are nuts if they don't take him. I know at least one member of Detroit's personnel department who would take him.
Jon (Akron, OH): Peterson will never avoid injuries. He's had one every year since his senior year in high school. What makes you think he can handle the everyday grind as a NFL RB?
http://assets.espn.go.com/i/sn2.gif Matt Mosley: (12:58 PM ET ) If the Browns don't run him into the ground, this kid will be unbelievable.
PaulieP (Scottsdale): Are you being paid by Russel and Peterson? I just don't see them as the phenoms your making them out to be. They'll be good, but it seems like you're already casting the mold for their busts in Canton.
http://assets.espn.go.com/i/sn2.gif Matt Mosley: (1:03 PM ET ) Not at this time.
Steve (DC): Matt; I love you. With all of the focus centering on Defense for the Bengals; is it possible they could go for a RB or TE in the 1st/2nd round. My reason would be the health of Chris Perry; which proves a back with his athletisism is very valuable to have... Enter Deshawn Wynn??
http://assets.espn.go.com/i/sn2.gif Matt Mosley: (1:17 PM ET ) Wait for a RB unless Lynch is there. Olsen could be there as a TE.
Glenn (boston): With Willis and Poz getting hyped up to the mid first round compounded with Belicheck's history of not drafting LB's in the first round, do you think he takes on Zak DeOssie as a project? Or are there any other later round LB's you see as projecting well into the Patriots system?
http://assets.espn.go.com/i/sn2.gif Matt Mosley: (1:21 PM ET ) Sorry for the distraction. Had to take a quick phone call. I think it's always a good idea to draft the son of a former Cowboy. If memory serves me correct, DeOssie was about the only shining light in a horrible 1980s Cowboys draft.
With that, I have to say goodbye. You've been wonderful.
Enjoy Parcells.
Katelyn (Syracuse, NY): Matt, not one question from a female? Come on, I love you! Are the Bills interested in trading up for Adrian Peterson? If they don't address the RB need in the first round who should they look at in the 2nd?
http://assets.espn.go.com/i/sn2.gif Matt Mosley: (1:23 PM ET ) One more. I'm trying to build my female audience. The Bills should be patient and take cousin Paul Mosley out of Baylor.
