    Draft Picks Are Gold To Some Of You Folks..Until They Are Used On Actual People

    Then they're all questionable picks.. or flat out suck.

    "They were so much cooler.. until they were actually made human !"

    Let's check back in 3 years before grading this draft.. but give them a freakin' chance. I already see 4,5 guys who may help this roster.

    Agreeing or disagreeing with the selection is understood...But playing taps before we even see them in pads tells me your meds aren't working and little else.

    If some people can get excited about picks who haven't done anything in the NFL yet, then it's ok to be skeptical too. Each viewpoint has it extremists, and it's wrong to whine about one side and excuse the other.

      I like the draft, but if some don't...that's their right.

        I like most of the draft so far, and I'll wait and see on what I'm skeptical about. But nothing is as irritating as homers and cheerleaders crying about critics.

          This looks like it could be our best draft in years. Kudos to the FO for finally drafting right

              Same the other way too.
              It's the never ending cycle on this board.

                3 years? Okay:

                2006 - Buffalo Bills
                Rd Sel # Player Position School
                1 8 Donte Whitner SS Ohio State
                1 26 John McCargo DT North Carolina State
                3 70 Ashton Youboty CB Ohio State
                4 105 Ko Simpson FS South Carolina
                5 134 Kyle Williams DT Louisiana State
                5 143 Brad Butler T Virginia
                6 178 Keith Ellison OLB Oregon State
                7 216 Terrance Pennington T New Mexico
                7 248 Aaron Merz G California


                Rounds 1 through 4 were pretty bad.

                It really sets a team back when you miss on 1st Rounders.

                  Yeah that draft wasn't exactly stellar, but the only guys that aren't on the team anymore Merz and Pennington. I do expect Simpson to get cut pretty soon. Whitner is on the hot seat as well. Jairus Byrd has got to have him sweating. Bills Brass want him at FS. Wonder what Whitner is gonna be twittering now?
                  Biggest Donte Whitner supporter on this entire message board...Maybe biggest Donte Whitner fan ever...Wish there was a white throwback out that I could get of you guessed it #20...
