    So given what you have seen so far...

    .....and assuming this year we finish in the 9-11 win range with a playoff appearance.

    How do you think our first 2 picks in the draft should go? What do you believe our greatest weakness is? Dont give a full offseason "this is what id do scenario" just a sort of note about what will help us most.

    Crowell is all but gone, and regardless of what anyone says I still believe DE to need attention.

    Thankfully we are quite young and have a great foundation going, personally I hope our FA activity is minimal and we lock up some of our pieces long term.

    At anyrate, I am going to go defence once again. I realize both C and TE are a big need.

    Greg Hardy at DE, maybe cushing at OLB, Curry at OLB or perhaps Orakpo at DE/LB.

    With our second pick I like a big TE like Brandon Pettigrew.

    Anyway I didnt mean to get into specific names, moreso the point was to get a view on what everyone views as our biggest hole at the moment.

    I haven't been thrilled with our offensive lines protection, and our lack of ability to get to the qb defensively. OL, DE.

      If there is a TE out there worthy of the pick, take him.

      If not, look at LB. Right now, the Bills only have one worthy back-up in Dig (Bowen should recover and was looking good). So, despite LB not being critical in their defense I would still be tempted.

      There appear to be no centers worthy of that high of a pick, so I guess that is a pass.

      DE might be next on my list, depending on how well Simpson performs.

        I got to go captain obvious here. If there is a center available thats worth a crap, you take him. If not you take best available at LBer or safety.
        I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
        "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
        You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
        It was all
        true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
        He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
        mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

          DE- Schobel is washed up
          C- Fowler sucks
          TE- this has been a chronic need for this team that never seems to be properly addressed
          LB- Ellison is ok but we can do better, and we need depth on the outside
          G- depending on how Butler evolves over the season and who is available.
          WR- this may be higher if Evans doesn't re-sign.

              I defer until after FA. We're getting close to the point where we can address a couple immediate holes through FA and draft for the future, not current holes in the starting lineup.

              I don't want to have to see a rookie LB starting and 10x that on a rookie center. That being said, I'd like to see a situation where we can address DE and OL right away.

                OLB - since Crowell is gone
                C - Since Fowler should be gone
                G - Not sold on Butler yet

                Any order. Just get the talent.

                  Could you imagine? A draft and offseason where we only have a few holes to fill? Seems like the past two years we've had to fill craters.

                    Well apparently that includes Schobel himself. Go watch the mic'd up clip of him from the opener.

                      Well, he was clearly lying.

                      Just like the Bills players who said Donte did the right thing are lying.

                          what a player says off the cuff on the field during play is COMPLETELY different than what they say to the media after the game. It's a reaction situation vs a contemplated and deliberate situation.

                            just because the D is top 5 doesn't mean every single player is playing well as an individual. That's just ridiculous.
