Negative

[Dr. Lecter]

Nice work!

[mysticsoto]

I like this one better than the previous...especially since I would have put Crabtree to the Rams also...but I think Detroit takes Stafford in the above scenario...

[DraftBoy]

They still have a lot of love for Stanton who hasn't gotten a real shot with them yet. A new GM may bring a new QB but we'll see.

[New Ro's Greatest]

I would probably take Cushing there but wouldnt be mad at Hardy though. GO BILLS:D:

[DrGraves]

OLINE!

[Pinkerton Security]

I would probably take Cushing there but wouldnt be mad at Hardy though. GO BILLS:D:

Just from what I saw of Hardy this weekend, he seems to have a knack for getting to the QB.

[Albany,n.y.]

32 / 31 are reversed.
You can't have 31 & 32 from the same conference. 31 is 32 but 32 isn't 31.

Doesn't matter any way...

Just from what I saw of Hardy this weekend, he seems to have a knack for getting to the QB.

He led the Country in sacks last year so he knows how to get to the QB. We haven't got pressure on the QB like in the first 2 games so he would be a solid pick. GO BILLS:D:

I wouldn't take Cushing before Round 4.

[DraftBoy]

OLINE!

You got a specific aspect of it, or just in general?

[DraftBoy]

Just from what I saw of Hardy this weekend, he seems to have a knack for getting to the QB.

He's also very good against the run. 64 total tackles last year, 18.5 TLF, 10 Sacks, 4 QBH, 3 PD, and 3 FF. That was in 10 games so, he averaged over 6 tackles, a sack, and a TFL per game last year while being the focus of opposing OL's.

[ServoBillieves]

Gotta go DE or OLB first round.

Second should be whichever was missed the first time around

Third, A.Q. Shipley baby!

Id have 4-5 guys ahead of him, but maybe in Round 5 or 6.

[The Spaz]

We need C, OLB, TE in no particular order.

[DraftBoy]

We need C, OLB, TE in no particular order.

We need more than that actually.

[The Spaz]

We need more than that actually.

Those are the most important IMO and maybe add DE too.:up:

One could argue depth is most important but I know you know that.

That being said our lists of needs are:
WR-1-2
TE-1-2
OT
OG
OC
DE
OLB
CB
FS
SS
QB

Not in any particular order though.

[Dr. Lecter]

So the list of needs is every position except for RB and FB (And ST positions, although LS should be on the list).

But why leave DT off the list?

Seriously, with Stroud being at 30 and McCargo looking like he could Go a young DT in the later rounds is not a bad idea.

Williams, Johnson, Stroud are a very good DT trio...I dont see the Bills dumping McCargo and admitting they were wrong so quickly, though they should.

[Bling]

I want Percy Harvin so bad for the Dolphins, but we still have Ginn jr. We need a physical WR.

[Dujek]

I still think Oher will go top 5, no matter who is picking.

[DraftBoy]

I still think Oher will go top 5, no matter who is picking.
There is a lot of debate about whether Oher is even one of the top 3 OT's in this class.

[Dujek]

I just think that based on his physical attributes somebody's going to decide that with the right coaching he can be one of the best there is and will take him very early. I don't necessarily agree with that view, but I can see some desperate GM grabbing him with the 3rd or 4th pick.

He's definitely a top 15 pick and likely top 10 but if Smith declares I dont see top 5 at this point.

[New Ro's Greatest]

I wouldn't take Cushing before Round 4.

I'm pretty sure he doesn't last that long. Curry and Spikes are the guys i would love at the position but there is something i like about Cushing that i think warrants a 1st round grade. GO BILLS:D:
