Tom Modrak’s staff is finishing up the final grades on their last two positions Tuesday and Wednesday.

Tuesday is offensive tackles and Wednesday will be the wide receivers. After that they’ll be tidying up the draft board and making calls to check on all the prospects to make sure things haven’t come up like injuries training or a case like that of LSU’s Demetrius Byrd who was in a car accident.

Then the top decision makers, Mr. Wilson, Russ Brandon, Tom Modrak and Dick Jauron will huddle up toward the end of the week to map out a few specific scenarios.

I'm sorry but I hope to god Ralph isn't a decision maker in this, especially at 90+ years. Keep the kid out of the candy store.

I hope he's more of a secondary participant, but it's not a huge deal to hear that he's in on the strategy sessions. If you were the owner, wouldn't you at least want to be in the room for that exercise? If you don't, you really don't care about football. Who here wouldn't give their eyeteeth to participate in the draft process?

They saved OT for so late in the process? Must want to have it fresh in their minds come draft day.

I hope they put a red line through anyone that already has a character or work ethic issue. Enough of this crap.

If you can't realize the opportunity you have in front of you and aren't willing to work, go play somewhere else.

Quit settling.

Absolutely right.

If the Bills do like Oher enough, he will be there at #11 and there really isn't much of a decision to be made with THAT pick.

Personally, I hope not. I think they're idiots if they traded Peters away without confidence that Chambers can play RT.

I'd rather they target a good LG via trade or draft; because I think Chambers at LG and a rookie or Bell at OT starting is a trainwreck waiting to happen.

I'm more worried about Hangartner against Wilfork in a contract year. Well, and how the rest of the line shakes out. So basically the whole line. Trainwreck might be very accurate with our schedule this year.

Think about those 4 guys drafting for us... then think about Miami with Parcells and New England with Belichick.

We are out of our league.

Kind of strange though.... not paying Peters and then giving a bunch of money to an unproven rookie.


I don't see the Bills drafting an OT with #11. They will look ******ed.

I can see them taking Pettigrew at #11 even if some think it's a reach.

I wonder where PAt White is on Modraks board. Wouldn't be surprised if they take him if he's there in the later rounds.
