Great article, I love hearing the insight from Nix on why each guy will be an important asset

Re: Nix behind the scenes.

Very cool...
I like that Nix stayed put and drafted the way they did...

1 thing Nix said that was interesting was..

He thinks Sheppard will have a very good chance to start next to Poz for many years....He actually said that in a interview on Sirius.....

Re: Nix behind the scenes.

Obvioulsy the Senior Bowl proved fruitful for the Bills coaching staff.

I love what Nix says about Whitner concerning the Da'Norris pick:

"As to what this means for Donte Whitner [who can become a free agent] I think this: I can't put words in Donte's mouth. All I can go by is past actions, and I'm not sure Donte wants to be a Buffalo Bill. All I know is that if that's true, he won't be."

I wonder what that meant?

Great article. Even made me laugh..."...Eric Pears looks like the starter there, but Buffalo needs right tackles like Duff's needs napkins"

Re: Nix behind the scenes.

nice read.

i wish they could have given us a little of what the trade conversations sound like. What was being offered and why it just wasn't good enough.

I bet he's referring to Whitner cleaning out his locker a day before the actual clean out day and even removing his name tag and not saying goodbye to anyone.

I think Donte does actually want to be here, he's just really bitter that he's the only person in the world that thinks he's a top 5 safety in the league and should be paid as such. I'm sure the contract numbers the Bills discussed with him are nowhere close to what he is expecting.

Whitner is a crybaby. I'm glad the Bills didn't try to over pay to keep him. Going to suck seeing him in a Pats uniform though. I could see them making that move and really piss off everyone.

i don't think the pats could help whitner.

I'm betting CIN is a possible destination. They had the hots for him the year he was drafted, and their safety position was wiped out last season.
