Based on everything I've been hearing/reading...it looks like its a given that Tackle is going to be the selection in Round 1 or 2.
That brings the question of who would you rather have? Jonathan Martin the OT from Stanford or Michael Floyd the WR from Notre Dame.
Chris Brown said himself that the Bills are nothing short of enamored by Jonathan Martin because of his experience (3 year starter) and his high IQ. We have been screaming for a left tackle now for years, and I think Martin is the only "1st round" tackle aside from Kalil who is ready to step in as a Left Tackle and play immediately. Based on what I've heard about Reiff (who I also like) he is being projected on the right side his first two seasons or so because of his suspect pass blocking skills (I was not aware of this...but Mike Mayock is one of the draft "experts" I actually listen to) - I know none of us are "experts" so if you're going to pull out that argument, then don't even bother posting. But its an open forum...thoughts people?
As for Michael Floyd, he is everything that Buddy Nix said they are looking for in a WR. A big, strong presence, who can beat a jam at the line, can go up and make circus catches, and is a major red-zone threat despite having extremely poor QB play at Notre Dame. He's had some off the field issues, however he seems to have had those cleaned up the past two years. If the Bills interest in Meachem was legit, I think that Floyd is more than just a "dark horse pick"
