Manti T'eo is their no-brainer pick. Assuming this and a Bills loss and a 5th or 6th overall draft choice, who do you think and want the Bills to pick?

Werner or Allen
Want nothing to do with Te'o that high. Arthur Brown is just as good in my opinion, so is Kevin Minter. -
Re: If Detroit loses...
I don't care about other positions other than QB. Wherever draft position we land, draft two QBs with the first two picks.Comment

Re: If Detroit loses...
If we're at 5th or 6th, I want to set up an Eli Manning type trade with KC where they draft Smith and we draft Barkley and trade them. If we get up into the top 5 yet again and still don't make a run at a top QB I will lose it.

Re: If Detroit loses...
I'm going to be very disappointed if we end up picking at 10 or above and don't get either Te'o or our franchise QB.
And just say no to Matt Barkley.Comment

Re: If Detroit loses...
QB Tyler Wilson would probably be my first choice, but I wouldn't be surprised if Geno Smith and Wilson both end up going before our pick. I like WR Keenan Allen a lot, but I'm hoping we address WR in free agency. I wouldn't mind trading down and getting more picks too. This draft seems to be heavy with a lot of top DL prospects.Comment

I'm just hoping whoever the heck we pick makes the team better, this 5-11 / 6-10 stuff is for the birds.

This team probably has plans to draft a new kicker.Comment

The question is here is quality. Who has the keen eye for QB? Very few do. Shanahan has it. He saw something in Cutler. He went all in on RGIII. Some in Green Bay front office as well. The obvious ones are obvious - everyone'd in the right position'd take a Manning or Luck, or when Roethlisberger fell to your lap. It's when you stick your neck out for it, like Donahoe did for Losman that can cost your job.
Nix, to me, is more of those sit there when someone falls to his lap. He won't reach for Gabbert several spots higher, nor a round higher for Dalton, Wilson. You can argue either way. Shanny's way or Steelers way.
I'm actually fine with Nix's approach: if you are not convinced, take the sure bet. If he can continue to build the defense into the backbone unit of the team, you can win in this league too. Gamble on QB is the quicker way, also higher risk. It's more of a lottery than others.
HC is an entirely different story though.Comment

Re: If Detroit loses...
From the 4th round on they better start thinking about it. Look at what Minnesota & St. Louis got in the 6th round. Teams might not wait that long after seeing how successful these 2 6th round kickers were. As always, Buddy Nix was a day late & a dollar short, let those guys go by in the 5th round & took Tank Carder instead, then after Zuerlein & Walsh went in the 6th, Buddy woke up long enough to draft a kicker who can't kick field goals in the 7th round only after he picked a lineman who he waived & then tried to get back this week & failed.Originally posted by Historian View Post
I looked up bad management and there was a picture of Ralph introducing Buddy as GM 3 years ago.Comment

Re: If Detroit loses...
That's not a good spot for the Bills to be in. Barkley or Tyler is an absolutely huge reach at 5th or 6th overall, and there's no WR who warrants anywhere close to being picked that high. I think you're stuck drafting BPA at a position of only modest need, probably a defensive end like Damontre Moore or Bjern Werner. I would attempt a trade down if I could. If I could trade down a few spots, and pick up an extra 2nd round pick, I'd try for Tyler Wilson at that point and use my extra second and my own second to pick up a linebacker and WR.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.Comment

I'm going to assume the Bills will win, just to screw their chances of getting someone good.Originally posted by coastal View PostComment
