    We can get the LB and the QB

    7 Months ago if I told you Buffalo could get arguebly the best defensive payer in the draft (VON MILLER) and our new future QB (Ryan MAllet) youd be jumping for joy.....

    BILLS NEED TO PICK MILLER 1 and MALLET Should be there in the second....I know he had a shaky Senior year but he looks ready for the NFL and Chan can work with him while Fitzy leads us back to the playoffs....MAKE IT HAPPEN

    A real possibility. I wonder if Mallett's demeanor will turn off Gailey though... he comes off like a punk. Although, he impressed me during his video interview with Gruden.

    Ryan Mallett seemingly has it all -- a 6-foot-7 frame, a cannon of an arm and 7,493 passing yards in a pro-style offense at Arkansas. So why are there still questions?

      I could live with that.
      Like Quinn and Locker better though.

        Mallett isn't even going to come close to making it to the 2nd round.

        He's the best QB in this draft, and some team will be smart enough to draft him. If he did make it to the 2nd round, I'd love the pick.

        I think the Vikings take him at 12.

          I won't state it as emphatically as you did. But, it won't surprise me if he gets taken in the 1st round... the position is coveted and there are a lot of teams with QB needs.

            No thanks in terms of Mallet....I'd rather have Miller and Locker or Miller and Ponder.

              I'd rather have a Dline/LBer combo myself. Dareus and Wilson/Houston/Reed or Miller and Heyward/Paea.

                Well, Doug Flutie came off as a little bit of a punk too, but all he ever did was lead this team to the playoffs... which is still the last time this team went to the playoffs.

                Now add that attitude to a physical skill set like Ryan's... and you have a recipe for a very good quarterback. I think he has the potential to be better than Gabbert, and certainly better than Jake Locker will ever be.

                Now, Prov401 believes that Ryan will be drafted quite high (12th). There's been a lot of gossip going around-- most of it pretty much unwarranted-- and that's been pushing Ryan's stock downward, while Gabbert's stock is going up without any real reason. If logic prevails, then he's probably going to be right. (It usually does... Matt Leinart and Brady Quinn were considered steals when they were drafted after they slid far farther than people thought... but it turns out the slide was well-justified, as both have been busts.) I do think Ryan's going to be drafted ahead of Gabbert when all's said and done, and in fact, if Newton and Dereus are both gone at #3, Buffalo ought to take a good, long, hard look at him.

                Call it blasphemy if you will, but who would you rather pick? Peterson? An ill-fitting Nick Fairley? Von "Show Me the Million$" Miller? Bowers is out of the question now, sadly.

                    Ill take Dareus and Reed.... As far as QB's I would take Mallett, Kap, or Stanzi in that order.

                        Fitz could easily take this team to the playoffs if he had the #1 ranked Defense in the league like Flutie did.

                          Bills do not appear interested in Mallett. They brought in Newton, Gabbert, Ponder.

                          Dolphins love Mallett and will probably take him at 15.

                            If we're going to go with the dumb immature guy I'd rather go with Newton. At least he isn't a stone cold statue. Taking Mallet at 12 or at 34 doesn't change that simple fact. If the NFL switched to the Pro Bowl format where you can't blitz I'd be all for Mallet. Doubtful that's on the docket for rules changes though.

                              While they both have character issues, I think Mallett is smarter than Newton. But that is not saying much.
                              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?
