Buffalo has drafted two Top 10 no longer on the team.

Antoine Winfield
Nate Clements

McGee has been pretty good. And hopefully McKelvin and Corner follow the pattern.

I don't think any team in the NFL has produced Sold Corners at our level. Unfortunately, we can never resign them lol

Weren't we supposed to extend McGee..

Did that happen ???

I thought they wanted it done before the season began


and we do a great job of drafting corners, only to let Fewells D scheme have them play a 10 yd cushion... Really why bother if this is your scheme. 90% of Billszone can play DB then

Is there another team that has spent so many high draft picks on defensive backs?

In recent memory:

Burroughs (sp)
Williams
Jones
Burris
Smith
Winfield
Kerner
Clements
Tillman
Whitner
McKelvin

Who am I missing?

ken Irvin
ashton Youboty
John Wendling
Eric King
Reggie Corner
Matt Stevens
Ko Simpson
Cary Harris
Ellis Lankster

Our Dline Oline and Lbers have sufford the most our depth is a joke
and when we do find a guy good enough to play or to be an All Pro
we dotn pay them and let them leave
ala King Winfeild, Clements rashard baker jabari greer etc.

I was limiting myself to the top three rounds, but yeah, the Bills should know a thing or two about drafting defensive backs.

Dude...Nate Odomes! 2nd round pick and the best cover corner we've had in the last 20 years.
