    Some draft buzz

    Rumors are swirling that Johnathan Martin may fall out of the 1st round completely:



    Peter King is saying the Rams love Trent Richardson.

    Two things on this. I think the Bills may skip Martin at 10. I also think Blackmon has an outside shot at dropping to us. I think the Rams were the most likely landing spot before us. I think the Jags will go with another position.

    Both are long shots to happen. Blackmon will go before us. Too many teams have that need. Martin will go in the 20s because too many team have the OT need.

      Martin has not even been a part of the Bills speculation at #10. And for good reason, he is WEAK.

          http://www.sportsline.com/ It's the second tab titled "Draft needs: Bills". I would post direct links but there are several items here and it just wouldn't be fair to single out just one.


          If the Rams pass on Blackmon, I could still see Jax, Fins or Panthers taking him. Also, if Richardson is there at six it probably means Cleveland stayed put and took Blackmon instead of the RB.

            I don't think Martin has ever been a realistic option at #10. I think his visit had more to do with if they trade down towards the end of round 1 or if he happens to still be available in the 2nd. They also brought in guys like Bruce Irvin and there's no way he's going in the 1st.

            I've seen some rumors somewhere that the Jags really like Melvin Ingram and I'm starting to see more and more mocks that have Blackmon falling to the Bills.

              Well, if he is there in the 2nd rnd or later, he might be worth putting into the weight room for a year or two, let him get stronger & develop.

                The draft doesn't stop after Round 1 you know.

                    The rams loving Trent doesnt matter. Cleveland and TB are in front of them

                          When it comes to the draft "NO WAY" is obsolete.

                          I have a feeling we're gonna be surprised though, I only hope it's a good surprise.

                            If Martin were to drop out of the first round and Buffalo went with something other than a tckle in the first round, I'd be pretty intrigued about him as a Bills pick in round 2. At that point you might be getting a player with a real chip on his shoulder after being passed over in the first round when he thought maybe he was a high first round pick at one point. He might just decide to hit the gym and become superman so he could prove everyone wrong. That wouldn't be a bad thing.

                            I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.

                            I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.

                              The Rams want Matt Kalil or Justin Blackmon. If they're leaking that they want Richardson, it's because they don't want Cleveland or Tampa trading behind them. Jacksonville may trade ahead of STL for Blackmon. BUF, KC, or MIN (after trade down) could want to get in front of STL if MIN doesn't take Kalil at 3. STL wants CLE and TB to take Richardson where they are to let one more player they want to fall to 6.
