[Slim]

OLB

[New Ro's Greatest]

i love this pick!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GO BILLS:mad:

[THATHURMANATOR]

Do we really care if we get any of the scrub QBs left?

[BILLSROCK1212]

I'd love Jarrett Brown, but at this point I doubt we draft a QB.

[Griff]

sounds like a pretty decent pass rushing OLB

[Prov401]

Seriously people. Understand: We are going with the QB's we have. Learn to like it.

Daniel Jeremiah tweeted about him a while ago:

What are your thoughts on Arthur Moats OLB/DE from James Madison?>> one of my favorite players in the draft! Love him

His 40/shuttle are pretty good.

[BuffaloBlitz83]

I'd like Tony Pike or Lefevour

[tampabay25690]

WOW great pick Im so surprised he was still there...
Our coaches are messing around with the DEFENSE......

[Ron Burgundy]

MOATS!!! That's TWO draft picks went to Buffalo that I've met! ****ing sweet!

Definitely an OLB/pass rusher. As Chappelle would say: he's mad ******ish, yo.

[Buddo]

I'm just glad we didn't pick any scrub QBs before.
I think that if the guys they thought of as developmental prospects, have already gone, our 4th QB will be a FA.
Another 'need' addressed though, with an OLB.

[THATHURMANATOR]

I'd like Tony Pike or Lefevour
Oh I wouldnt hate getting one of them but I won't care either way. I bet we add a veteran like Garcia.

[TedMock]

I love Moats! I have had the opportunity to watch him play a few times. Good small school prospect.

[ddaryl]

yet again no QB

all of the QB's in this draft outside of Bradford were projects.... We already have projects.

Will bring in a vet to replace Fitz IMO, and there will be a competition for the starting position.

BUT I for one am extrememly happy we didn't reach for a lousy QB in this draft.

We have successfully left ourselves open to making the big move in 2011 for a franchise arm

[THATHURMANATOR]

What are his measurables? Does he translate more to OLB in a 3/4?

[ddaryl]

YES he is a OLB in the NFL

[BuffaloBlakely14]

What are his measurables? Does he translate more to OLB in a 3/4?

Affirm...Pass rush specialist OLB in the 3-4. Nice small school sleeper. Some places had him as a 4th rounder.

:gobills:

[BillsWin]

Our defense is going to be scary good.

[kingJofNYC]

More from Jeremiah.

"Arhur Moats was a steal in the 6th round"

I know I'm **** riding but he's a former scout and tweets frequently.

[Buddo]

He's around 6ft and 240-250 lbs. Runs a 4.66 40 (I think).

From Sporting News/Russ Lande

Height: 6-0 Weight: 246
40-yard dash: 4.67 10-yard dash: 1.62
20-yard shuttle: 4.38
Broad jump: 10-2 225-lb. bench: 24
3-cone drill: 7.23 Vertical jump: 36
20-yard dash: 2.68

Strengths: Is well-built. Plays with intensity; is always around the ball. Consistently makes big plays, including tackles behind the line of scrimmage. Tight ends have difficulty blocking him one-on-one. Shows good instincts. Plays with natural leverage. Is good getting off blocks and making tackles all over the field. Has the bulk to take a consistent pounding.

Weaknesses: Is a 'tweener, a college defensive end who must move to outside linebacker. Must improve agility to be effective in in coverage. Lacks great lateral speed. Tackling technique must improve. Tends to use shoulder tackles, knocking targets down rather than wrapping up. Has limited range against the run.

Bottom line: Moats will be a solid small-school pick who could become a good linebacker if he can make the transition quickly. He is disruptive, a good pass rusher who be sound against the run. Coaches must focus on his open-field play. He also could become a rush end. Moats will be a solid mid-round selection and could develop into a starter.

[BillsWin]

I am so excited about this defense... Moats was a steal. **** the scrub QB's, we just got a stud for nothing!!!!!

[NOT THE DUDE...]

moats and maybin are very good speed rushers... solid pick... he might start if schobel retires...6-0 250 good pick!

[Nighthawk]

It's very obvious that the goal of this draft was to address the defense....maybe next year the team will address the offensive problems. They've taken some good players, hopefully they produce in the NFL.

[Mr. Pink]

Judging by his player profile on NFL.com...

I'd be shocked if he's anything more than a special teams contributor.

But it's the 6th round, if he pans out great, if not, no big deal.

[Night Train]

After reading up on the guy, that sounds like a exciting pick.

[bills4ver]

seems like we are trying to build a run first offense and a aggressive run stuffing defense

I like it!

If Edwards don't pan out this year we upgrade the QB next year.

LOL dude was the division AA player of the year! led the conference in tackles for losses. He will be in the mix for the OLB baby! GO BILLS:air:

We still have the players to be cut for $$$$everal reasons before the season starts, so who knows??

A day we agree....
DEFENSE DEFENSE DEFENSE...
We drafted a ton of guys that can get to the QB.
I luv the draft so far and a great job ny management...
Draft is not over and I think we will still add some talent.

1 thing is for sure our DEFENSE will not be pushed around anymore.....

[NOT THE DUDE...]

if schobel retires this guy could start... from what i know he is very similar to a freeny mathis harrison type...

we coulda took Clausen in the 2nd and it wouldn't of been a reach he was projected a 1st

[Night Train]

I just watched Bills scout Tim Roth over at BB talking about Moats. He's usually pretty reserved but he is absolutely gushing over this guy. Said he was one of his favorite players to scout. Dominating.

[ddaryl]

Says you

I didn't want him because of those tiny hands. It's a recipe for disaster IMHO... In Buffalo with freezing temps strong winds he would struggle. He's perfect for Carolina though. He;ll do better there

I didn't want any QB in this draft unless it was a late rounder and I still want the Bills to make a move in next years draft for a franchise arm.

Let's wait on the QB next year issue. We may just find a qualified starter on the roster in Brohm, Edwards, or Brown.
