Well, is this good or bad? Would you have wanted Smith? This took KC out of the QB market in the first 3 rounds, likely first 4 rounds, they still could take one. Helped 49ers get two nice picks. I missed part of what he was saying, did not hear a source. Also said the Bills would likely be cutting Fitz now and taking Geno Smith, FWIW
On Dan Patrick today he said it was the Bills that drive the price up for Alex Smith

If one of the top tackles or DEs falls to us, we'd be in the position to trade back a few spots. That would be great if we could do that, use the extra pick to trade back up to the bottom of 1st and take one of the Nassib / Wilson / Barkley.
Otherwise I would have no problem staying put and taking either Barkley (reach) or a top LB and see which QB falls to us in the 2nd.

They use the 8th overall to select Dee Milliner or Jarvis Jones.Last edited by Mahdi; 03-05-2013, 10:35 AM.

If we lose Levitre and one of those 3 LT's falls to us, we better run to the podium and select one without even considering a QB or LB. Those 3 LT's are FAR better.Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit

Re: On Dan Patrick today he said it was the Bills that drive the price up for Alex Sm
Well, I guess it should not surprise me. Our GM has no idea what he's doing. Especially at the quarterback position.
The Chiefs got absolutely raped on that trade. If the Bills drove up the price on Alex Smith, it tells me they were offering a pretty good deal to the 49ers as well. It completely blows my mind that Alex Smith was a free agent JUST LAST YEAR and nobody wanted him. Now - after a season where he was benched, he's worth a high 2nd round pick plus...
It's funny how the same teams are so eager to snatch up mediocre veteran quarterbacks, but refuse to draft them. We traded picks for Rob Johnson and extended Fitzpatrick. Kansas City has played around with Matt Cassel, Trent Green and countless others. The Cardinals traded for Kevin Kolb. I've read that Arizona is interested in bringing in Cassel now. So it's completely conceivable that the top rated QB in the draft - Geno Smith - falls directly in our lap. And most likely we will pass on him in favor of reuniting the college powerhouse Syracuse Orangemen and drafting Nassib in the second. I can't think of a situation that screams Buffalo more than that.
The fact that Kansas City, Jacksonville and Arizona are trying to find other options (as opposed to drafting a quarterback high) should tell Buffalo that this quarterback class is going to be very good. None of those teams have any idea what they are doing either.2013 "My Should Have" Draft

I think the Jags will let Gabbert and Henne compete and maybe get someone after round 3. Gabbert actually had a great preseason, and then was OK, but crapped the bed and got hurt.
