    Come On Bills - OL & D Front 7

    Let most of the picks be there. Let's copy winning organizations.

    In Nix I trust.

            Whether it's a luxury pick or not, Spiller at 9 is a better value than a Bulaga or Dan Williams at 9. For christ sakes, it's what has gotten this team in trouble for the last 10 years, reaching to fill a need and taking a player who can't live up to his draft status, than taking the guy who is worth the 9 spot.

              What got this team in trouble is the ignoring of the OL and D front 7 and trying to get cute with picks like Mcgahee and Whitner

              and then when we did draft OL or DL we would end up making the wrong move in Flowers McCargo and Williams


              Spiler makes wonderful trade bait though, and I wold love to move down in this draft if a coveted player does not slip to #9

                The Bills need another off-season to fill all the needs.

                Pointing out what we failed to address this weekend WILL be easy. It doesn't mean that Nix & Co. didn't do their best.

                That's a result of not having 15 picks and basically screwing up the previous drafts from 2000-2008.

                I'm rooting for OL/DL Front 7 because thats where this draft seems to have quality depth.

                In short, I just hope any player selected tonight or Friday can help us right away.

                  If they are the right guy in those positions sure like Okung, Williams, Suh, McCoy, but that won't be the case, and then it makes sense to grab your best player available, and come back in later rounds with the linemen when the value and depth is really there.

                      We need to stop drafting like Donahoe, taking every bright and shiny object, and get back to basics. We need big linemen, or all the glamor guys will do us no good at all.
                      Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

                          still don't see it happening. We'll trade back before we take Spiller

                              The problem with Donahoe was NOT that he drafted the wrong positions, it's that he drafted the wrong players. That's the problem with any failing team.
                              If a player is so dependent on teammates to do well, then the problem is the player. A great player -- at ANY position -- makes his teammates look better.
