Just say no to QB, RB, TE. Don't think we need a DT or S as badly as other positions.

I'd be OK with Warmack, Frederick or Joeckel if we lose Levitre.

Patterson or Allen, Moore, Ansah, Jordan, Ogletree or Milliner would be my preference.

Well Geno Smith will still be #1 as they are eying him to go that way like Andrew Luck in 2012!

My top 5 in any order for the Bills at #8 would be OL Fisher, Joekel & Warmack ( expect Levitre to be too expensive ) OLB Jordan and CB Milliner. The highest rated of those 5 still sitting there at #8 should be the pick. Instant starters.

The rest look like a reach for a need, IMO.

Why r people pimping Jordan right now?

Is he a football player or does he fit a trendy profile?

Just saw him on NFL Network yesterday... he loooked stork thin.

He fits the classic 34 OLB mold. He's got a thin lower body but he's explosive, can run, and played a lot of two point stance at Oregon.

My Top 8 currently is:
1. OT Luke Joeckel-Texas A&M
2. DE Damontre Moore-Texas A&M
3. QB Geno Smith-West Virginia
4. DE Bjoern Werner-FSU
5. QB Tyler Wilson-Arkansas
6. OT Eric Fisher-Central Michigan
7. DT Jesse Williams-Alabama
8. OG Chance Warmack-Alabama

I wouldn't say he's classic 3-4 OLB mold. Just about every good starting 3-4 OLB is 253-258 pounds. Jordan is three inches taller and 15 pounds lighter than all of them. He's almost built like a really tall safety. I think people are so all over the place on him because there's really no active comparison to him and his sack production in college was not good.

To be fair, he dropped back a lot.

I saw him compared to Julian Peterson which made some sense

Julian Peterson makes some sense to me. Both guys were 240# and athletic, but Julian Peterson was an OLB in a 4-3 and was let leave to Seattle when they transitioned to a 3-4 defense in 2005. Jordan is also 6'7" while Peterson was 6'3", but their skillsets are probably the best comparison I've seen. Jordan has a long way to go to actually be on Peterson's level though IMO.

I'm waiting on DraftBoy to tell me why I'm right or wrong
