    90% of Draft Guru's...

    And yes, I'm throwing myself under the bus too.

    Personally, I don't get into the draftnik fray. I don't really care to discuss a bunch of guys who most likely won't become Bills. Que sera sera.
    Lehner's history. He just doesn't know it yet.

      Mental masturbation. They all had to go scrambling after the Rams traded up.

        90% of these so called draft gurus have never played football beyond high school at the most. Nobody studies any film, does any scouting, goes to any games. They watch just enough college games on TV and reads what everyone else says and switches things around a bit. I don't give any of these guys any credit.

          I don't consider myself a guru, but I love watching college ball, studying up on the players, and doing mock drafts.

            I'm the same. It's window shopping before Christmas and dreaming of what you hope to get.

              I can't wait until the Bills draft a guy in the third round who should have went in the first.

              That always means a whole bunch...almost like stealing. And, of course, we'll know the value right away.

              Then there is the guy who fell all the way to the 7th round who was once the #1 prospect coming out of high school, but ran into a little bit of trouble and should have those character issues ironed out in no time. Can't wait to be really high on that guy. I believe he's turned it around already, even without knowing his name yet. He runs fast.

                    The hidden hands jammed deep in the crotch is also accurate.

                      Some of the guys are legitimate (Bugler, Kiper, Mayock) but as most are just full of crap.

                      There are few guys at lesser known sites whose opinions I'd put up there with the three I named above.

                        I like to talk about the players and their skill set, positives and negatives. I care less about stupid mock draft, in other words I like to look at player rankings.

                          Mel Kiper is horribly inaccurate.

                              Yeah, but trades like these allow them to hide their inaccurate predictions that preceded these transactions. Nothing is more painful than watching how many times Kiper says "I don't get it" and McShay stumble on draft day coverage. I guess it's a good gig if you can get it.
