Surprise Pick at #11

[Mahdi]

I have a strong feeling that Lawrence Sidbury will be drafted by the Bills in the first round but when I look closer at him and what the Bills need he looks even more intriguing and I'm thinking now that Buffalo takes him at #11.

1. At 6'2 267 he is thickly built, strong in the legs and tough to move.

2. Fastest DE at the combine 4.57

3. Long Arms, scouts look at arm length as a very important characteristic

4. He played LDE throughout college which makes him a perfect fit for Buffalo

5. Dwight Freeney was selected at #11 and Sidbury is almost exactly the same player, height, weight, speed, strength (both put up 28 reps at 225) they even have the same pass rush moves.

Don't be surprised to see the Bills call his name at #11.

Don't see it. We may use 28 on him but not 11. I do like him though.

Very much a reach at 11, but that seems to be the Bills' style.

Exactly. I just see a surprise pick by them. And Sidbury represents everything they need in a DE it just seems right, even if it is seen as a bit of reach that early.

42 yes 11 no way... why would we do that he will be avalable at 42 or 75. Sidbury is slated to go in rd 2 mid or late...

I can guarantee you Sidbury is gone by the second round.

don't be surprised how pissed some people will be if that name is called at #11.

Re: Surprise Pick at #11

He will be there on Day2

Irrespective of a fine combine performance, he is a small school player and there are a large number of ends who will grade higher.

Feeney came from a bigger programme than Sidbury does

Everette Brown played at LE in his college career and got 13.5 sacks against better opponents

Re: Surprise Pick at #11

If we go DE at 11, I like Brown the best, but he's a bit of a reach there as well.

i doubt it.

Re: Surprise Pick at #11

I can pretty much guarantee that Sidbury will not be the pick at 11. He's got some good aspects to his game, but there are a LOT of players that are better prospects than him, including many who will be there at 11.

He might go at the end of the first, but I'm not sure I even see that happening.

His stock has risen since the end of the season, but almost nobody's stock rises that much during the offseason.

I see you must be drinking today...

Re: Surprise Pick at #11

of course the bills will make a reach at 11...

[Mr. Pink]

Re: Surprise Pick at #11

I truly believe we'll reach at pick 11...but not for Sidbury.

We'll take Pettigrew, who may still be there at 28, if we didn't.

Now this I could see them doing and it will drive me nuts!
