The Official 2012 NFL Draft Thread

[YardRat]

:beers:

If the Bills stay at #10, they are going corner or wide receiver (unless Gilmore, Kirkpatrick and Floyd are all off the board before that) and everything else is a smokescreen. Just IMO.

[Night Train]

" With The 10th pick, the Buffalo Bills select Coby Fleener, TE Stanford " :up:

I agree with you.. but I think there's a 50 % chance I expect to be very surprised.

[tampabay25690]

So much up in the air.....
Glad its Thursday already..........

I really have no idea what direction the Bills will go.

Either we do move up and grab Kalil, or we draft a CB, or Kuechly at #10.
Or we trade back and grab BPA...

[THE END OF ALL DAYS]

I'll know EXACTLY what the Bills are doing at about 9:30 pm tonight. Im scary that way :)

[SquishDaFish]

Good luck keeping all the chatter in here

[DraftBoy]

Just listened to the Buddy Nix interview on WGR. We aren't moving up.

[psubills62]

Can't wait.

[JCBills]

Is it tomorrow yet?

[BillsOverDolphins]

If Floyd is available at 10 and we do not pick him, may God have mercy on our souls

[BillsOverDolphins]

Just listened to the Buddy Nix interview on WGR. We aren't moving up.

What'd he say? (besides the obvious). Just curious b/c I didn't listen.

[Night Train]

What'd he say? (besides the obvious). Just curious b/c I didn't listen.

He said we need to get those Duke boys out of Hazzard County. :up:

[EricStratton]

Rack up those BorB bucks Yard

[DraftBoy]

What'd he say? (besides the obvious). Just curious b/c I didn't listen.

Not much of anything, but he made it clear he values picks, he indicated (thought didn't directly say) that they haven't had any discussions about moving up, and he said he knows who he wants at 10 no matter what happens in front of them.

[THRILLHO]

In most years we have had a pretty good idea what player or position we were targeting. This year with all this information and misinformation we have no idea. And I love it.

[DraftBoy]

Also don't forget both ESPN and NFLN have been told not show players on the phone prior to the draft pick being announced or tweet out the pick before. So the suspense will be back to what it was before.

[Mski]

Yep they are making the right moves adding some of the fun and mystery back into it.

Well at least now we all won't throw up going into commercial break as the Bills are on the clock and we see a picture of Aaron Maybin crying.

[Mindbender]

Soooo, 7 hours or so left.

Thanks for the scoop, though.

Anyone ever been to Buffalo Wild Wings for draft day? My friends are going and I want to know how crowded it gets.

[stuckincincy]

Yes. I have my squirt cheese can out of the cupboard and out on the counter, warming up.

Nobody as yet has appreciated the wry commentary imparted by squirt cheese. I dispense it onto a chip - selectively - depending on the picks.

[ServoBillieves]

Depends on where you live. When I lived in PGH, where fans only care about football when the team is doing good, nobody ever showed up, just a bunch of Bills, Browns, and random Cowboys fans where I went. That being said that's the only BWW I went to. It got crowded, but I'm watching the draft at home with my beef on weck and stuffed BP

I'm down in charleston sc, panther and steeler country. So it could be a crap shoot. I'll get there thirty minutes early to make sure we get a table.

I'm usually glued to the computer. The draft is going in one window and Billszone and Buffalo Rumblings in the other. I like to watch the instantaneous reaction.

It's because they have 10 players that they really like. Here's the quote from Nix:


“Unless they give somebody two picks at one time we’re going to get him,” said Nix. “We have 10 guys we like. They can’t get them all.”

As Draftboy said, the Bills are more likely to trade down then up, but I don't think they're actively looking for a trade partner. Nix seemed to indicate that they have been getting calls though. Here's the full article at buffalobills.com:

You are not getting the nuance. It has nothing to do with ejaculate. Think about the oozy cheesiness that embodies the NFL these days.

As stated... only the REAL diehard Steeler fans (I can count them on my fingers) would actually be there. Panthers fans are an interesting breed. I've always been 100% Bills but some folks down here really love their Panthers and I've adopted them as my redheaded child. I'd fear them moreover than any others for eating up seats.

They usually don't accept it, but depending on the chain you can sometimes call in a reservation and if you've ever been there before you can say "the table near 'x' TV"

The sports on tonight has MLB Toronto vs. Baltimore at 7, Red Sox vs. White Sox at 8:10, and ELEVEN NBA games, one of them being Charlotte... If you can get a decent reservation or can scope the place out to see more NFL jersey's than Celtics/Lakers jerseys you should be OK.

Do people in Charlotte actually watch the Bobcats?

I'm not a huge QSL fan even though we just got one down here ourselves, but you're on the ball with the Asian Wings. I'm currently putting my QSL Atomic Sauce in to my beef and weck pizza recipe, so I do have a soft spot for it.

[ServoBillieves]

Do people in Charlotte actually watch the Bobcats?

You'd be incredibly surprised my friend... If I hadn't seen it myself I would have said the same thing, but the bar up the street from me always has the 'cats game on all big screens and everyone has a jersey. I thought I was in the ****ing Twilight Zone. I try not to swear but that merited it.

I am surprised. That's a horrifically bad team. And being a fairly new team that has struggled a lot I wouldn't expect them to have much of a diehard loyal fan base. Good for them I guess.

The Hornets had a huge following here as I've been told at work. Those fans either migrated their fan-dom to New Orleans or, when the Bobcats came, immediately attached to the new team. It's very puzzling, but when explained that way somewhat makes sense.

I don't think it does.

Only 1 thing to do if Ireland wants Tannehill: Spread word that you want to trade out of No. 8 so others are less tempted to move to No. 7.

Via Darlington's twitter.

I think he's giving Ireland too much credit.

[mjt328]

Stupid Jets fans.

Pay money to go to the draft, then boo every prospect that walks on stage.
Cap it off by booing the commissioner for absolutely no reason.

And I got just 1 thing that I can offer

[THRILLHO]

Just got to Buffalo Wild Wings in my bills hat and Lynch jersey (still like the guy) Hoping to see some other fans.


Lets do this! Go buffalo!

[Night Train]

I predict MMD will start 45 threads within the next 48 hours.

Ignore is a beautiful thing.

Go Bills !

[Slim]

And it begins! Best 3 days of the year.

[BADTHINGSMAN]

I predict MMD will start 45 threads within the next 48 hours.

45 is pushing it. 44 sounds about right.

[Slim]

I'm so glad the Colts are no longer in our division. They are terrible now but they will get better, not to mention the beatings Peyton and crew would have lain on us for the last ten years.

[Slim]

Snyder enjoying his time in the spotlight. Get the pick in already Washington.

[BADTHINGSMAN]

I'm so glad the Colts are no longer in our division. They are terrible now but they will get better, not to mention the beatings Peyton and crew would have lain on us for the last ten years.

Does make you wonder how the drafts would have turned out with 2 more L's every season.

[PTI]

Rangers just scored, up 1-0!

[Slim]

Cleveland's pick should come fast, Redskin's got their pick in like 5 minutes ago.

[Slim]

3 picks in just 15 minutes into the draft.

[Slim]

The production can keep up with the draft. The picks are going to be about ten minutes behind the time their announced if this keeps up.

[BertSquirtgum]

the ****ing pick has been ready for ten minutes. what the **** is taking so long?

[BADTHINGSMAN]

the ****ing pick has been ready for ten minutes. what the **** is taking so long?
The talking heads need to yap for 20 minutes.

[YardRat]

First three down...now is where it gets interesting.

Minnesota = Claiborne, Kalil or trade down again?

[BertSquirtgum]

"He's like a marshawn lynch" still hate the fact the Bills got rid of Lynch.

[Luisito23]

I knew it wasn't going to happen, but I'm glad those idiots in NY didn't trade up for Trent...

This guy is going to be a special RB.

[PTI]

Rangers 2-0............

[Romes]

Jacksonville just traded up to the Bucs spot...

[Slim]

No Kalil. Schefter saying Minny's taking him.

[Canadian'eh!]

IF Minny took Claiborne, Jags are taking Blackmon... Bills MUST move UP

[Skooby]

45 is pushing it. 44 sounds about right.

Tough crowd, lol. They're panning on Kalil, oh man.

[Luisito23]

No Kalil. Schefter saying Minny's taking him.


There was really no way they were gonna pass on him.

[Slim]

There was really no way they were gonna pass on him.

I really was buying all the Claibourne talk.

[Slim]

Tampa gets a 4th for switching with JAX. Claibourne is slipping...

[djjimkelly]

no kalil for the bills

[YardRat]

So much for Kalil dropping.

[BertSquirtgum]

Bills = Michael Floyd

[mrbojanglezs]

could the bills end up with claiborne??

[OpIv37]

No surprises so far except the cle trade, which didn't change much

[Ed]

Kalil's Mom is hot.

[djjimkelly]

picks going super fast they arent messing around

[Skooby]

We're trading back now, no reason not too with the right package.

[Philagape]

:mad:

[Slim]

Bills = Michael Floyd

I hope so but doubt it. It'll be Gilmore or Barron.

[BADTHINGSMAN]

Tough crowd, lol. They're panning on Kalil, oh man.

lol just busting your chops a bit. Was hoping to land Kalil but Minny just took him.

[Canadian'eh!]

Well... Maybe a move back into low round 1 for Martin.

[dannyek71]

Trade down!

[Slim]

Dallas is at 6. Claibourne or Barron?

[Canadian'eh!]

could the bills end up with claiborne??

NO. He will be gone by Tampa's pick.

[BLeonard]

Rams trade #6 to Dallas

-Bill

[Ed]

Are you guys watching ESPN or NFL Network?

[Romes]

Wow... Cowboys move up to the Rams spot. To get Mark Barron?

[clumping platelets]

Call St Louis and get Claiborne!!!

[BertSquirtgum]

wow, dallas is up there now. morris claiborne for them.

[clumping platelets]

Rams trade #6 to Dallas

-Bill


:mad:

[Mad Max]

This guy seems like a good kid...too bad for him he's got Gabby chucking ducks his way slowing his career down.

[Slim]

Solid chance Gilmore AND Barron will be their at #10.

[BADTHINGSMAN]

wow, dallas is up there now. morris claiborne for them.

Dallas wanted Barron.

[YardRat]

Floyd may go to St Louis now.

Oops...didn't see the trade.

[BertSquirtgum]

Miami moved up to take tannehill. good for them.

[Slim]

Rams get Dallas's second rounder.

[Skooby]

Holy Toledo!!

Floyd may go to St Louis now.

Stl is at #14.

ESPN, but only because I remembered the channel number. ****ing Comcast.

[Slim]

Dallas is taking Claiborne

[Slim]

Great pickup for Dallas.

Barron to TB.

[BertSquirtgum]

Dallas is taking Claiborne

indeed

[Slim]

It'll be REALLY interesting if Keek and Gilmore go at 8 and 9.

[Slim]

I wouldn't be surprised to see someone trade up for Keek or Gilmore in the next two picks.

[dannyek71]

Do not want a CB

[Ed]

I would have loved Claiborne. He's going to be special.

[Mad Max]

Roger Goodell haha...mastered all the Dap moves

[Slim]

I get the feeling the NFL told Tampa to take their time with this pick.

[Slim]

BTW. Next commercial break is in twenty minutes, right around the time the
Bills go on the clock.

Rams have 4 of the first 45 picks. Wow.

[Patti120]

Who is it gonna be? Barron? Kuechly??

[JCBills]

ESPN, but only because I remembered the channel number. ****ing Comcast.

214 NFLNHD

[Luisito23]

Do not want a CB


Or a safety, so I hope Barron is the pick right now.

[Slim]

Who is it gonna be? Barron? Kuechly??

Barron is going to Tampa.

[Bert102176]

It damn well better be Floyd or the Bills ****ed up again

[Skooby]

It's Barron.

[Skooby]

Tannehill to Miami, I think.

[Slim]

It damn well better be Floyd or the Bills ****ed up again

I'm not getting my hopes up. I'm expecting Keek or Gilmore.

[JCBills]

I love how everyone says "Madden" when people talk about trades on draft day.

Apparently we're watching Madden. Lol @ them.

[Canadian'eh!]

Good... didn't need Whitner 2.0

[Slim]

Wouldn't be surprised to see MIA trade down and have a team trade up for Cox or Gilmore

[ddaryl]

It damn well better be Floyd or the Bills ****ed up again

you're one of those types..

there are multiple options

[Luisito23]

I'm expecting Keek or Gilmore.


Horrible.

[elltrain22]

Gotta be Floyd

[clumping platelets]

"Dolphins Suck" :laughing:

[Slim]

Love the Dolphins suck chant.

[clumping platelets]

WR Floyd or DT Cox at #10

[ddaryl]

Barron is sure sporting a big watch

[elltrain22]

Miami is gonna take Tannehill

[dannyek71]

Trade down. Take floyd or an OT

[Slim]

Tanehill to Miami.

I'm thinking the Bills might take Fletcher Cox if he's their.

[Skooby]

Love the Dolphins suck chant.

They're panning in on Tannehill.

[djjimkelly]

watching gruden look at kiper is rather funny

[YardRat]

Wow...they are really screwing the pooch on timing.

**** Nike and their backstage nametag press :mad:

[dannyek71]

I predict we have the first reach of the draft

[Mad Max]

Mr Tannehill meet mister Williams

[Slim]

So, I would rail Tanehill's sister/gf.

[SquishDaFish]

Damn come on I want FLOYD!!! Id be happy with Luke though LOL

[Don't Panic]

I love Tannehill's..... girlfriend! DAMN!

[streetkings01]

Yessssssssss Miami took him!!!!!!!!!

[Mike13]

Listen to those ******ed ****ing jets fans boo.

[PTI]

WWE like chants in the background.......

[JCBills]

Buffalo's D Line now knows their target. Thanks Miami.

[Luisito23]

LOL...Typical dumb pick by Miami.

[Mad Max]

normally this is where we take CB...

let's see if it's same old same old

Mr. Gilmore

[Slim]

I'm thinking the Bills are going to be adding some dreads to the secondary.

[elltrain22]

Dolphins are gonna suck for years, and I couldn't be happier!!!! TAnnehill is garbage

[Mike13]

Are you all ready to get swept again?

[JCBills]

Byrd is going to eat Tannehill's lunch for dinner.

[PTI]

I think Matt Moore will play very well next year and Miami will have a situation where they need to decide to pay Moore and have both or franchise him and then trade him like Cassell.

[Slim]

Bills are on the clock.

[mjt328]

Playing against Ryan Tannehill twice every season.

We just got better and it isn't even our pick yet.

[Mad Max]

i love hearing Suzy Kolber say dree-um

[dannyek71]

Trade PLEASE

[Slim]

I'm thinking Fletcher Cox/Gilmore for Carolina.

[Slim]

Trade PLEASE

Schefter saying Gilmore to Buffalo.

[Mad Max]

Trade PLEASE

sadly this was the only thing Donahoe did very well

[The King]

Bummer

[The King]

I like luke

[BertSquirtgum]

Please take Michael Floyd

[SquishDaFish]

Prob Gilmore. I want FLOYD!!

[SquishDaFish]

Adam ****head saying its Gilmore

[Don't Panic]

F it... I want Cox.

[dannyek71]

We are not smart enough to trade down.

[dannyek71]

If we did draft Cox, Brady would somehow find a way to get "sacked" by him.

[BertSquirtgum]

Adam ****head saying its Gilmore

the worst.

[Bert102176]

please be Floyd please please please please please

[Mad Max]

we have to be the highest % 1st round CB drafting team lol

[dannyek71]

Nooooooooooooooo

This team is moronic.

[Philagape]

Gilmore. Good pick. :bf1:

[Canadian'eh!]

Mayock had him ranked 8th and loves him.

[JCBills]

James Anderson, Luke Kuechly, Jon Beason. That's pretty nice.

[TacklingDummy]

Bills get screwed again out of a LB. First it was Willis, then it was Miller, now its Luke.

[Luisito23]

I hate this pick.

[YardRat]

NICE !!!

[acehole]

the worst.


Don't like the pick

[mayotm]

CB was a need and Gilmore was taken about where he should have been. Solid pick.

[acehole]

Gilmore. Good pick. :bf1:



Good player bad value.

[mjt328]

I hope I was just watching the wrong film on this guy.

From what I saw, this guy is very average in coverage.

Corner was a need, so I'm crossing my fingers he proves me wrong.

[TacklingDummy]

They needed a CB. McGee blows and McKelvin hasnt been all that good. Hopefully with a pass rush our secondary will shine.

[Mindbender]

Like it!

[Ed]

I kind of wanted Floyd, but he made me nervous. There's a lot to like about Gilmore. I think he'll be a good kid and we'll all like him a lot.

[ddaryl]

not the sexy pick but necessary.

Nix said you can never have enough CB's.

I'm expecting a trade up now for a OT

[SquishDaFish]

I like the pick but wanted Luke or Floyd

[Bruce is Loose]

CB was a need and Gilmore was taken about where he should have been. Solid pick.
Aka.... Better than Whitner!!

[BertSquirtgum]

Can't even watch the draft anymore. I hate corner backs in the first.

[Bert102176]

well **** you Buffalo you wanna be **** ups with this pick you needed Floyd u are **** ups you will always be **** ups, die RW die please

[Slim]

not the sexy pick but necessary.

Nix said you can never have enough CB's.

I'm expecting a trade up now for a OT

Adams, Massie, Martin, and Reiff are still all out there. Good chance one of them will be their for us in round two.

[dannyek71]

This is McKelvin all over again.....

The FO must have messed up. They tried to draft a RB but faxed in the wrong name.

[Slim]

well **** you Buffalo you wanna be **** ups with this pick you needed Floyd u are **** ups you will always be **** ups, die RW die please

:rofl:
You wanted Clausen too right?

Not the sexiest pick, but a pick in a position of need who was arguable the BPA

[BloFan4Life]

Just an absolute terrible pick. Like the damn Jauron era all over again. Take a CB that struggle in coverage. Really smart in this division. I look forward to Donald Jones dropping passes and Hairston getting ran over.

[Mad Max]

Aka.... Better than Whitner!!

You know what though, a bigger, stronger, faster Whitner is not all that bad a thing. Just hopefulkly with non stone hands, which we seem to always gravitate towards.

[jlgarsh]

I wanted Floyd bad but as long as Gilmore is good then I can live with the pick

[Don't Panic]

This is McKelvin all over again.....

The FO must have messed up. They tried to draft a RB but faxed in the wrong name.

This is NOT McKelvin. Dude is the anti-McMarbles. I'm not thrilled with the pick, but I'll give him that much.

[Slim]

I wanted Floyd bad but as long as Gilmore is good then I can live with the pick

Greg Cosell had him as the best CB in the draft. He actually likened him to Charles Woodsen.

[SquishDaFish]

Wow come of you are ****ing pathetic

[BertSquirtgum]

**** you Buddy.

[Slim]

Cox to Eagles.

Floyd going to Arizona. Congrads to a GREAT ND player.

[thenry20]

They needed a CB. McGee blows and McKelvin hasnt been all that good. Hopefully with a pass rush our secondary will shine.

LOL! He's been injured lately maybe becuz age is catching up with him. IMO Terrence has been hugely underrated. He has been as good as Clements was but didn't get some team to overpay for him.

McKelvin has lost his starting job when we signed Florence. Plus, this is his final year of his contract. He will not be re-signed even is he makes the Pro Bowl. Just MHO.

In essence we are losing to 2 CB after this season. This was a position of need.

Having said this, I believe we were gonna take the LB. This guy had a very strong chance of starting. Yes, I know we have Morrison and Merriman.

[mjt328]

At least we aren't Kansas City.

Winnie the Poe will be the biggest bust of the draft.

[zone]

Haha, I love all the overreaction on draft day. This kid is a top 10 SEC player and a day one starter.

[Prov401]

Out of all players available to us, please tell me who was far and beyond a better pick than Gilmore? All the sexy players were gone. Luke and Barron were traded up for (80% of you didn't want either player anyways). I don't want to hear the trade down b.s. It's easier said than done. You can't force some team to trade picks with you.

I don't understand the maxi-pad hate on Gilmore, considering the players we had to choose from.

I personally would of liked Dre, but almost every analyst seems in agreement that Gilmore moved ahead of him.

Stop being little girls.

Most people enjoy the "sexy" picks. CB is not a "sexy" pick. He was the best player available. For people who want a receiver, there are still a ton left in the draft.

Whoa, that's some great shoes to fill.

I have to respectfully disagree. Mcgee has always been inconsistent. He's been average in my eyes his whole career.

CB was without question a big need for our team. This is a pass happy league filled with franchise QB's. I have high hopes for Aaron Williams, and Stephon Gilmore. The vets can stay a few more years and we'll probably get the best out of them considering they'll probably not have to cover for 12 seconds each play this year.

[thenry20]

I like the pick but wanted Luke or Floyd

Same here.

Berman was flummoxed cuz he didn't even mention the "cab driver". I believe itz because our guy was taken at 9.

Beside being pretty short too. McGee fights hard but I have seen him lose a lot of jump balls or being outmuscled by taller guys, not even stronger because of leverage.

[ParanoidAndroid]

The cab driver was someone inside the Bills FO who isn't there anymore.

[Slim]

Jets could get Couples.

[SquishDaFish]

Ingram is better option over Coples

[Bert102176]

:rofl:
You wanted Clausen too right?

Not the sexiest pick, but a pick in a position of need who was arguable the BPA


yes I did and if Clausen had a true chance he would show he can be a good starter

[YardRat]

Hell, I thought Irvin would drop into the second.

[Slim]

yes I did and if Clausen had a true chance he would show he can be a good starter

I see a pattern.

[Slim]

Couples will be a good player. He's a 3 technique for the Jets.

[YardRat]

****. Now I hope everybody that said Coples would bust are right.

[Mad Max]

****. Now I hope everybody that said Coples would bust are right.

The Jesters and their 1st round DLinemen history portends non-greatness for the poor kid.

[YardRat]

No surprise, Bengals go DB with Kirkpatrick.

[JCBills]

Couples will be a good player. He's a 3 technique for the Jets.

You mean 5? They run a 3-4.

[Mr Bills]

Coples = Ghoslton 2.0

[Slim]

You mean 5? They run a 3-4.

Yea, my mistake. I'm a few beers in.

[ddaryl]

Nope Chargers are not going OL

[YardRat]

Nope Chargers are not going OL

Kinda surprised DeCastro is still on the board.

9 of the last 10 picks have been defense, which is good for us because that pushes OT's and WR's closer and closer.

[mjt328]

Ingram is going to be very good for San Diego.


I'm glad that our division rival passed on him for a bum like Coples. He's another one I think will bust.

[YardRat]

Whoa! Bears keep McClellin away from Pats :clap:

[ddaryl]

Pats trade up with Cincy...

Gonna guess DeCastro

[psubills62]

What did the Pats give up?

[SquishDaFish]

Pick #90something Their pick in the 90s

[BidsJr]

Weeden gone . Thank goodness.

[YardRat]

Wow. I mocked a QB to Cleveland with their second #1, but that was only because I had Tannehill dropping. Browns should've gone WR, IMO.

[ddaryl]

New backfield for Cleveland

[smithencrazy]

I agree to thank god the Browns took him. He's a little to old for what I would want. He would only be a starter for like 7-8 yrs tops and thats if he's that good.

[psubills62]

Sucks that Cincy couldn't pry a second rounder from them.

[Mike13]

Shades of John Beck.

[Romes]

Decastro to the Steelers...perfect fit for them.

[YardRat]

****. Pats up again after trading up.

[psubills62]

Pats trade up again? Is Belichick napping?
