    This years draft Bills drafting #10

    I have been really trying to figure out what the Bills will do at #10 and Im still trying to figure it out. I don't like the value at 10 for any of the needs the Bills are looking for. To me there isn't a LT worth the #10 pick and there really isnt another position of need that is worth the #10 either. I think this is the year we move up or move down.
    To me there is 4 Elite guys in this draft:
    Luck
    RG3
    Kalil
    Trent Richardson
    I will put Blackmon and Claiborne right behind them.
    But after these guys 7 to 20 is pretty equal IMO.......
    I really do believe that the Bills are going to try to creep in to the top 6 to either get Blackmon, Claiborne, or Kalil. Lets face it we have 10 draft picks so why not try to get in the top 6. But then again I could see us going from 10 to 15-20 and grab a guy that would fill a need then get more draft picks.

    I have seen a 100 different mocks now, and to be honest if we didn't get Anderson, and Mario in the offseason a pass rusher would be the easy pick.
    But now that we took care of a huge need I can't wait to see what the Bills do decide to do.
    But I think most of us can say we have no clue what the Bills will do at #10...

    Richardson has top 10 talent, but RB is a position that should not be drafted in the top 10 because of their short careers. You are lucky to get 5-6 good years out of a RB on average While a player at just about any other position with similar talent will play for 10-12 years.

      Richardson is a top 5 talent.
      Usually I don't draft RB's that early either but a guy like this you do.
      Short careers what is the length of career for any Football player??? 3-5 years.
      So if you can get 5-6 good years out of Trent Richardson you are doing just fine.
      10-12 years out of guys, what is the % of players that actually play that long anyway?

        Luck
        RGIII
        Kalil
        Blackmon
        Claiborne
        Richardson
        Floyd
        Coples
        Tannehill

        I am almost 100% sure this will be the first 9 taken in any order.

        Who do we target from the remaining players?

          3-5 may be the average career for AVERAGE players, but a player with top 5 talent at any position other than RB will most likely play 10-12 years.

          It is the careers of mediocre players & RBs that bring down the number of years the average player plays.

            Would luv to see the avg the past 10 years of the top 5 picks and how long they have played.
            I think you wpuld be surprised how short of careers they did have.

            You are valued and opinion so its all good.
            But to me Trent Richardson is a can't miss pick.
            If I was Cleve, or Tampa I would grab Trent in 1 sec.

              Quite possible but i could see Trent going to Cleve instead of Blackmon.
              Im still not totally sold on Floyd as a top 10 guy and definitely not sold on Coples at all...

              For the Bills I would probably say. Kirkpatrick, or Reiff, but to be honest I would rather trade out and get in late teens instead...

                As a Bucs fan that saw the Bucs draft Cadillac Williams with the 5th pick of the 2005 draft, I would much rather see the Bucs draft CB Claiborne. CB is a position of need for the Bucs while RB is not.

                Richardson may have a great career, I just don't want it to be on the Bills or Bucs

                  I live in Tampa as well and listen to all that goes on with the Bucs.
                  RB is a need for the Bucs they have Blount that cant catch a fly.
                  But yes they need a CB as well since Ronde will retire after this season.

                  I still draft Richardson if Im the Bucs.

                        Not only will Ronde most likely retire after this year, but Talib may be suspended this year.

                        The Bucs can draft a RB in the 2nd or 3rd rnd.

                        I still say NO to Richardson. Why draft a RB, when you can draft the best CB in the draft?

                          Why not?
                          I agree Talib will probably be suspended.

                              Not to mention you guys have to defend NO and ATL's passing games.
