    Chris Brown asked a question

    What if Cam Newton, and Nick Fairley are off the board by #3? That would mean Bowers, Peterson, Dareus, and Gabbert are all going to be sitting there at 3 among other very talented prospects. Who would you roll with if you were in Nix's shoes with that predicament? I'm interested in reading your opinions on this.

      Dareus, Bowers, Gabbert, Peterson in that order.

      Everyone knows all the opinions as they are in every thread made both plus and minuses.

        Everyone also knows that opinions change over time. But, thanks for your input. Go Bills.

          I really think that is a great scenario for us.

          I know I hate when others do this and I know it's not as easy as just saying it, but I would really look hard to trade down.

          If Cam is gone, that leaves Gabbert as the only "top 10" qb left and instantly makes him a hot commodity. With Cincy right behind us and needing a QB with the whole Palmer disaster going on, any team after them will not have a shot at a franchise QB and might be willing to give up a second round pick to jump ahead on Cincy.

          Arizona, San Fran, Tenn, Wash-- all teams that could be potential trading partners.

          Depending on where we fall with the trade, at least one of Peterson, Miller, Daruis, Quinn, Jordan, will still be there.

          That would give us 2 high second round draft choices and we could grab Martez Wilson, and Kyle Rudolph.

            You are right about that. I was totally against Locker period, now I would not hate him in the 2nd.

              This would be probably be the best case scenario for the Bills.


              If I am making the pick, it will depend in large part on what kind of defense I plan on running. If 4-3, then I take Bowers at #3 and maybe Phil Taylor in the second. If 3-4, then probably Dareus at #3 and cross my fingers about filling in the linebacker corps.

                This is easy. I'd take Dareus, but would be fine with Peterson also. I want nothing to do with Fairley anyway.

                I think you could throw Von Miller and Quinn into the mix too.

                  I'm starting to join the Dareus bandwagon.

                    Me too. I think he's one of the safest picks at the top and we really can't afford another bust.

                      I would be OK with Dareus, Peterson or Miller at three. I don' t want Newton, Bowers, Fairley or Gabbert.

                        a trade down in this draft would be huge.. we could get a great DL, LB, TE, and QB

                          Maybe yours, not mine. I'm going off of what I have watched the last couple of years of college football.
                          Some guys improve their draft position with good combine numbers, but I still like the same guys I liked before the 40's .

                            I am selecting Gabbert. Draft a QB while we still have a starting QB on the roster, let Gabbert learn for the year. This is a deep draft for D-line so we can take one with our second rounder as some of the top prospects are sure to drop.
                            True fans want wins, not draft picks.
