    Draft name no one has talked about

    Ok, im just throwing this name out there because we have heard many different names especially at DE. We've heard Ingram,Upshaw,Mercilus,Perry, and Coples. All of which have varying problems at the Bills pick. I know the need is not huge now with the Williams signing but Fletcher Cox is an animal who has been talked about going as high as 9 to Carolina. I know some of you will look at it and say but Gonzo he is a DT and we don't need that but hear me out. He is 6'4 298 pounds and has 34 1/2 inch arms and has played defensive end in Mississippi States defense. He also shows great athleticism on tape and ran a 4.79 40 yard dash at the combine. If he pans out like I could,could you imagine two athletic freaks at DE and Williams and Dareus at Dt. Just food for thought as I don't believe the Bills will go there but felt it was worth discussing.

    Thanks for the info - always nice to hear about players we've not been discussing.

      Im going to assume your being sarcastic. I don't overly think its a huge reach to discuss. He could be BPA, you know Buddy likes SEC defensive players and he has played DE before, an area where we could still go in round 1.

        He rarely played DE at Miss State. He's a beast and ideal 43 DT but I just dont think its a big need unless the Bills are concerned about KW long term.

          Your assumption is wrong. What in the world made you think that? I was just thanking the poster for alerting us to someone that most of us hadn't given much thought to.

            Well I apologize then. Probably the nature of most message boards made me think that.

                OK, this has gotta stop. We cannot have people being considerate and thoughtful - its just not done.

                shut up and deal

                    I just don't know anything about him. Sacks? Fit for a 4-3 DE?

                      He's played 4-3 DT but outside of his weight,298 , he has all the acceleration and speed numbers to play DE. He had 5.0 sacks last year at DT on a not so great Miss. St team. Like I said he has played some DE at Miss St but not extensively. A bit of work could be needed but the payoff could be great.

                        Cox is currently rated #7 OVERALL by Pro Football Weekly and they list him as a DT/DE. I noticed that just this morning and thought that he might be a good get at 10. No one is really talking about him.
