Ever wanted to create your own Buffalo Bills mock draft but didn’t have the time to look up 300 football players? Welcome to the BillsZone Draft-O-Matic 5000. What the hard working draftniks at BillsZone.com have done is compile NFL draft prospects by position and Bills team needs. Granted, it’s impossible to determine who will be on the board when the Buffalo Bills pick at #13 in the first round, let alone deep into the draft. Plus, the prospects of trading picks and giving up or acquiring picks can jumble the whole draft picture.

But, as a fun exercise in draftology, we created this draft page so you can select players to fill out the Bills draft board just like they do in the war room at One Bills Drive.


Here’s how it works. Click your mouse on one of the prospects listed for the first round that might be available when the Bills pick. Eliminated were unanimous top 7-8 talent (Eli Manning, Larry Fitzgerald) and players that would be considered outrageous reaches at the #13 spot (Vernon Carey, Michael Clayton).
When you select a player, an expanded profile is given, as well as the next round’s prospects. Continue the process until you reach the 7th round. I have added between 8-12 prospects for each round. Obviously, it’s impossible to add all the prospects- so on average 1 per need position appears in each round. Positions the Bills have no needs for except depth (Linebacker for instance) are represented in later rounds.

You didn't scroll with the mouse over the last frame. I extended the frames.


I also just modified it. The 6th round is no more, half the talent moved to the 5th, half the talent to the 7th.

Snell was moved to the 5th from the 7th.

I added devrey Henderson WR, LSU to the second Rd

Can't have them all.

That's a lot of offense!

I added Pierce- he and Brandon Everage are real wildcards. Both - if their heads are on straight- are the top at their positions. But both have had all sorts of legal and attitude problems. I can see Miami and/or the Raiders going after these fine outstanding gentlemen :snicker:

I think he played one game at center in college. Also on Andrews I like him and definitely wouldn't mind drafting him but moving him to LT and start already is throwing the guy to the wolves I would have him play LG for this season then if Jennings leaves after this season then he can start at LT.

He's a better guard than center. OK in an injury pinch, but I'd rather move one player than two. Unless Vernon Carey or JUstin smiley falls in Buffalo's lap after getting Andrews, I can't see it happening.


Plus, Jennings is sure to bolt for FAcy if moved to center.

My only problem with the Andrews pick is this: We will then have 2 unproven OT's on this team. Williams has been consistent but nothing spectacular and Andrews will go through the rookie growing pains. Now while I think McNally will get Williams to have a breakout year, I also think that Id rather have Jennings at the other tackle and maybe Carey on the inside.

Dozerdog

Carey isn't bad either- but at 13 he's getting picked way ahead of projection. Plus, Andrews is a run blocking monster. Way better than Carey.

I agree Carey is too big of a reach at 13. Kinda like Levi Jones at 10 (I think) for the Bunguls a few years ago.

"Great tool. I love it." ~ she said. LOL

One malfunction...The Bios for Andrews and Carey are the same.

My draft

1. DT - Harris (if he's there)
2. C- Grove - a must
3. WR - Darling
4. TE - Peters (if TD wants to sign Rochester boy Roland Williams than FB - Karney)
5. QB - Josh Harris (2 Harris'...wow)
7a. K - Azar
7b. DT - Hilliard (or FB Wade if no Karney)

heres mine

1st Carey ( fills obvious void at guard)
2nd Grove ( Next year Bye Bye TT)
3rd Utecht ( hes a bruiser with solid hands)
4th Karney ( Power Blocker we NEED)
5th Darrel Campbell ( this is a bit of a reach but this guy has the talent)
7th a BJ symons ( underated, broke all kinds of records, he is our future)
7th b Kevin Youngblood ( solid talent if he is still there, if Reed can excel to the number he will challenge shaw and aiken for the number 3)

Dantheman1280
04-05-2004, 09:10 PM
I neglected the DE postion, but we have to give Kelsay his fair shot. Wire will be a solid player at the other saftey spot. Linbacker is deep with Stevenson ( great special teamer) Crowell and Haggen. Corner is fine with Clements, Vincent, Mcgee and Thomas. Im a little worried about the depth at tackle but Price is a solid backup and for the rest of the o-line Sullivan, tucker, pucillo, and the 2nd year unproven player sobeski.
