So who are the other four players gone by the Bills pick; Geno, Floyd, Jordan, and Star?

Maybe Milliner instead of Star?

Guess that means no kicking Glenn into guard.

That also probably means no potential trade with the Chargers or Fins, since both seem to covet a LT.

I imagine it was never an option.

It will be my favorite memory from this offseason.

Anyone thinking or hoping that Nix was ever going to use the #8 pick on the OL has been wasting their time.

Three OTs plus Jordan and Milliner almost guaranteed to be gone, plus one DT (either Floyd or Star) and either Ansah or Geno.

With the non-stop parade of rule changes turning the NFL into arena football, why not grab OLs? And tall TEs? I'm losing appeal for drafting defensive backs. Get interior linemen and linebackers.

I hope it's Eifert or someone else to make this board blow up in a rehearsed, theatric rage.

One of my favorite times of the year is 30 seconds after the Bills' first round pick on billszone for the almost unanimous anger and rage over whomever the Bills pick. The past ten years or so it has been somewhat warranted.

I think good OTs are at a premium due to the pass first oriented league the NFL has turned into. If you have a good QB and an OL that can protect him, you can get by with average WRs. The rules are set up in which that offenses have the upper hand, and with good pass protection and an accurate QB you can let your WRs run their routes and any holding or illegal contact from a DB will give you 5 yards and a first down. I think in an "offense first" league, QB's are of course the most important position but OTs whom can pass protect are definitely the 2nd most important offensive position.

Nothing like getting all worked up before something actually happens.

Forget the leading-up...the jaw-dropping and gaping mouths of the fans during the day(s) of their drafts the past ten years or so is what matters. :kid:

So what happened to guys like DaMontre Moore and Bjoern Werner? I thought they were supposed to be top 5 picks.
