#12 pick.. I need your input on this

[patmoran2006]

Im asking this partially because Im just curious to the responses, and partially cause I am busting my brain working on a published mock draft.

But under this scenario, and PLEASE stick to the scenario.
Patrick Willis is gone at 12. So are all of the players were expected to go before we pick. No surprising "OMG" this guy slipped theories..

AND. marv Levy does NOT trade down.

WHich of the following would you draft, and a quick explanation why.
A) Marshawn Lynch
B) Paul Posluszny
C) Greg Olsen
D) Robert Meacham
E) Leon Hall.

*Note** You dont have to bother with long explantions about what you'd do with each round of the draft, for research reasons, IM looking for everyone's pick and why with what you do under THOSE CIRCUMSTANCES AT #12 only..
THanks.

Since you asked, I'll be nice.

Assuming Turner is not brought in, I would go with Lynch. Mainly because a "2nd tier" LB can be drafted later on (i.e. Siler). RB/LB are concerns 1A/1B (in either order). WR and TE are much farther down the list, imo.

Not trading down?

Lynch, he has the tools too be a really good running all around RB and that's something we really need. And I think the "character issues" can be resolved if he comes to a great team, like the Bills

i would pull a minnesota and not turn in a card.

or take lynch.

Re: #12 pick.. I need your input on this

If we dont trade down. By my own personal mock rankings, I got OLB Rufus Alexander or ILB David Harris as the best LB's on the board when Buffalo picks again @ 43.

I got Pos, Beason, Timmons and Siler all gone before the end of round 1, as you'll see tommorow.

Leon Hall is the best player in that group. Seriously.

Lynch. Our biggest needs are at RB and LB. With Willis - by far the best LB in the draft - gone, the logical choice is Lynch. We can then get one of a number of good LBs with our 2nd round pick.

Probably Lynch. But you have to also put the caveat in there that there is no deal for Turner or Briggs (which would probably include #12 anyway, but who knows).

i agree as well.12 is rigth around where lynch should be drafted and rightly so.

he would fill an immediate need and would fill it quite nicely.

Re: #12 pick.. I need your input on this

Unfortunately I am going to say Leon Hall. I used to be a big Lynch fan and it would fill the biggest hole, I just don't think he is a good fit for Buffalo. He's a Cal boy.

Leon Hall is the highest rated out of those players. Leon, Ashton, Ko and Donte would hopefully give us a stacked secondary for years to come.

Re: #12 pick.. I need your input on this

With Willis gone, I think Lynch represents the best value at one of our biggest needs (LB, RB).

No point in using the #12 on a LB if Willis is gone.

Re: #12 pick.. I need your input on this

Leon Hall! RB will be fixed prior to the draft!

P.S. Side note we will trade down and get an extra pick to recoup what we used to get Turner!

I agree. He's got the most value of any of the players mentioned. Any of the other 4 guys I think we could trade up into the bottom of the first, like last season, and still land.

Re: #12 pick.. I need your input on this

Im gonna say Meachum. Id be happy with anyone here, Hall and Poz are both good choices. I feel strongly next year is the year to go RB draft wise so I went with a strong presence opposite Evans. Not to mention i think Lynch is over-rated.

If Evans leaves next year we will need a #1 guy anyway, and if it JP continues to improve I dont know if Ralph is gonna drop 50 mil on both he and Evans. And lets face it Schaub getting 48 mil and Andre Johnson getting his monster deal theres a better chance then not we lose one of these guys. If JP keeps improving no way we dump the franchise QB.

Meachum.

Meachum.

If Wilson lets Evans leave.. He can take his Bills and join him.. he'll be lucky to have that stadiu8m 33% full if he starts letting guys like Evans or Losman walk.

PS- I like meacham too
