And we got OUR Man in 4th rd.
Many had him ranked Number 2 after Pettigrew. At worst 3rd after Cook.

Re: Give FO Credit alot of you wanted to reach for TE
Honestly, I hate some of the negativity too, but there's some pretty good reasons for not giving credit or benefit of the doubt to this FO.Originally posted by ddarylComment

Re: Give FO Credit alot of you wanted to reach for TE
Let's not get crazy here...this FO reached for Byrd and in reality, got lucky that Nelson fell to them in the 4th. There was no skill to it, sometimes you get lucky...we got lucky and I'm thrilled about it.Comment

Re: Give FO Credit alot of you wanted to reach for TE
I give them plenty of credit in THIS draft. Yes they have been pretty clueless in the past but they got it together right now

Ya know, I like you man, but sometimes....Originally posted by Nighthawk
You have no idea whether they thought he would drop or not.
You call it luck, but its very possible that they thought this out and new he would drop despite what the draftnicks were saying.
You don't know, I don't either, but you cant say its luck because you don't know.

Come on man, don't tell me they sat there and said, "you know, Nelson will fall to us in the 4th round, so we'll reach for a DB here in the 2nd!"Originally posted by EdwardsEra
Now that is just plain stupid talk.
This entire process is somewhat driven by luck.Comment

They get credit for being lucky?"Heck, now I am glad his overrated arce made the pro bowl, else we would have only got a 3rd." ~ yordad

Re: Give FO Credit alot of you wanted to reach for TE
Who gives a flying **** if they got lucky he was there and we took him. Now he's on the team and who gets credit for drafting him? We do.

Re: Give FO Credit alot of you wanted to reach for TE
Bills can't win! If they take a guy a little too early they reached. If they wait and someone falls to them they are lucky. Even if Nelon was off the board there were other good TE that we could have picked.Originally posted by yordad
I think this is a great draft thus farLast edited by Al the Bills Fan; 04-26-2009, 01:31 PM.

Re: Give FO Credit alot of you wanted to reach for TE
Not the point...I love the pick! Just people are getting a little ridiculous with their praise right now. I'm happy, but let's not forget they reached badly on a CB (who will move to FS) in round 2...should that be forgotten???Originally posted by The SpazComment

Re: Give FO Credit alot of you wanted to reach for TE
It was a no brainer. Wanting to give the F.O. some sort of kudos for it is on you. I guess sometimes it is better to be lucky then good.Originally posted by The Spaz"Heck, now I am glad his overrated arce made the pro bowl, else we would have only got a 3rd." ~ yordad

Yep I'll take the Patriots luck when they drafted Brady.

Re: Give FO Credit alot of you wanted to reach for TE
I said from day 1 that the TE position was loaded....
There is honestly no need to take a TE in the 1st...
Just like TAMPA had no reason to trade up to take that Freeman kid.....GO Gators!!!!!!
GO GATORS!!Comment
