Hmmm, Lynch's stock dropped a bit as far as Im concerned

[X-Era]

I just watched the BB.com thingy on the RB's. I must admit I sense some cockyness from Lynch. He does come off as a bit of a punk.

The guy who seems to win the character battle is Pittman. Heres a guy who smart and wants to fight it out on the field. This guy is screaming that hes a Levy type guy. Hes undersized and its an issue, but he has what we want as far as character. The runner up is Tony Hunt, hes another one that seems to have the right attitude.

How much does character matter? Tough to say. Willis was probably run out of town in part due to character. Is Lynch the same player? I really dont think so at all. I think hes not that smart, I think hes got a chip, but I dont see Willis Jr. Hes not a me guy. Hes a team guy that works hard for tough yards.

BTW, Peterson seemed to have a decent attitude. His injury issues are huge though, and I hope we pay close attention to it.

I am 100% against us drafting Lynch. I believe he is the same person McGahee was. i want Pittman more tha any other RB. He will be the best available RB in th 2nd round if he is there. If not i would like Leonard, Jackson and Booker in that order.

I don't know about Pittman being the best RB available in the 2nd. I would have to say that Kenny Irons or Bush will probably be a better back. I could live with Pittman, if that is the only player available when we pick.

You obviously haven't seen Kenny Irons play he was only good for one season and it just so happens that that year he had a stacked O-line....he is extremly overrated....I agree with you on Bush but if he will miss part of next year I don't want him at least not in the early rounds

Bull-****. Character matters to me, my opinion...the Bills dont care, but it matters to me.

Leave the losers to the Cowboys, Fins, and Bengals.

Im hearing that Bush wont run fast at all. Hes not ready to run as we all know. However, this is a playmaker. Bush is a great RB, but is 40 time or lack thereof, cant be overlooked.

Cant disagree on insisting its the best or bust.

He's a great college playmaker, -but even if he does recover, I dont see him being a good pro running back unless he changes alot.

For one, he's not very fast. I know 40times dont mean everything, but the fact he runs a 4.55-4.65 should be concern. Now another big thing is that he doesnt use his frame to run people over. Never has, and Im not sure if he ever will. His ability to juke and cut will work in college, but his lack of speed, and lack of being physical will ruin him in the pros.

Wow... I respect you as a poster man, but I'm kinda left scratching my head at how you get all of that from a few 10 second soundbytes...

My brother goes to Berkely, and plays for there rugby team. He's met him a few times and says he's a nice guy. I also follow Cal/ND football relgiously and ive NEVER seen anything out of lynch that would be a potentitial charectar flaw.

Re: Hmmm, Lynch's stock dropped a bit as far as Im concerned

I didn't get any impression from Chris Brown's article that he is a punk. He's a bit edgy in some ways, and has a Willis McGahee like confidence in his ability. However, confidence is a remarkably common trait among football players and Lynch shows a deep appreciation for his mother, a single parent.

I would not mind if Buffalo went in another direction though. I think Pittman is a pretty creative runner who can probably put on a little more muscle without sacrificing quickness. I thinkk I would take pittman before I took Irons. Jackie Battle is certainly intriguing, though I suspect he's going to be a little raw.
