    What If I told you Bills got (in any order),All American LB, NFL ready RB and a TE

    Greg Olsen, TE, Miami
    An All-ACC First-Teamer, Olsen is generally regarded as the top tight end prospect in the draft. While he didn't have a prolific career playing for Miami, Olsen showed enough in his limited time to impress most scouts. Olsen is still a little raw, but he has the frame, athleticism, hands, and instincts to eventually be a starter in the NFL. His tendency to get injured is a bit concerning, but it hasn't been a major problem. He needs to work on his fundamentals and on bulking up, but if he stays focused and finds himself on the right team, Olsen might be a future star.


    Michael Turner, RB,

    Rufus Alexander, OLB, Oklahoma
    The Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year, Alexander was a First-Team All-American as a senior. He led the Sooners in tackles two straight years, a testament to his work ethic and consistency. Alexander brings a rare blend of intensity and athleticism to his position, showing the ability to make plays all over the field. He's a tackling machine who makes good reads and then delivers punishing hits, often leading to fumbles. Alexander isn't the biggest guy at his position, but has the raw talent to be a very good pro defender.

    As long as we don't WASTE a 1st round pick on a damn TE!

      Don't like Olsen with our first pick, unless we traded down well into the bottom half of the first round. He's a HUGE liability blocking, and I might even go so far to say if I had my choice I'd RATHER draft Ben Patrick, regardless of draft position.

      I like Turner and Alexander (obviously)

        Alexander would be OK as our second LB selected.
        Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

          I like Turner and Alexander. But I wouldn't take Olsen in the 1st round myself. he's fast allright, but I'm scared off by his lack of production in college. He may have everything it takes to be a great TE, but I'm not investing more than a 2nd rounder in a guy that didn't tear it up in college.
          Wake up, brush your teeth, and get ready for a day of hating the Dolphins. Or the Pats? How to choose?

            Olsen in my mind is a slow receiver who can't block. Not worth a first round pick. You want a 1st round red zone threat. Draft Bowe.

              Based on that little scouting blurb, I don't see how Olsen is any different or has any more potential then Kevin Everett.

                Remember the last TE we drafted out of the U?

                    Raw, athletecism, injury concerns, better receivers then blockers...

                      TE's don't have to be good blockers, just good at stalemating.
