    King hearing guard talk for Bills at 8

    8. Buffalo. Heard guard a lot over the weekend, with coach Doug Marrone figuring he can get his quarterback either at 41 overall or by moving up 10 to 15 spots to get Ryan Nassib or the QB of his dreams.

    It's been proven many times over that King throws darts and hopes he hits something.

    Good read but take it at face value.

      I think this is Chris Brown's way of telling us what he has heard. So maybe a pass rusher at 8 if Geno isn't there.

        Hearing a lot of guard talk from who? People speculating just like him!

          Better a guard rather than a safety if they don't have the courage to draft a QB with that 8th overall pick.

            I have said no such thing.
            I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
            "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
            You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
            It was all
            true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
            He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
            mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

              Exactly. When I worked as a newspaper reporter, you didn't report rumors, speculation and unnamed sources.

                They are not reporters and it cracks me up when people describe them that way. No self-respecting reporter would slobber all over his interviews the way King does.

                  Not many of them left out there, sports or otherwise...

                    As long as they are a starter and can ball I don't care what position it is.

                      Not a fan of the idea. But this much I agree with.

                          We've been through this the last two years with Schefter tweets around the same time. These guys are NFL insiders, not draft guys. They are perfect marks for smoke screens.

                            IF we take a guard at 8, it would be the epitome of how awful this front office has been over the last decade.

                            Why wouldn't we have just resigned Levitre if we were going to take a guard that high? Sure, it would've been expensive. But it would've been way less risky, and it would've essentially saved us a first round pick, 8th overall, to take someone at a different position.

                              Agree to a point... but several teams (especially Pittsburgh) have been drafting players knowing the current starter needs a new contract now or next year.

                              Turnover, justified or not, is a given in the Cap age but the difference is they find good players to replace good players and stay at a high level. We ususally don't and they employ a good QB and an effective front 7 on D, which is essential to winning.
