For many football fans draft weekend is an anticipated time, a chance to get together with friends, but for current NFL players it's a time to sit back and let the front office do their job.
"We put our trust and faith in Mr. Donahoe and Mr. Modrak," said Bills guard Ross Tucker. "I think we're all confident that they are going to look at it from a business perspective and do what they think is in the best interest of the organization. Hopefully they can help make our team stronger and continue to get us more and more good players so we can have a winning season."
"We believe in what Mr. Donahoe and Coach Mularkey are doing and we go along with the plan," veteran tight end Mark Campbell said.
Since the players do not have any input on the draft they don't give it much thought.
"I hardly follow the draft, not even last year when I got drafted," said Lauvale Sape, 2003 sixth round pick. "Now that I'm in the NFL I just have to do what I normally do and see what happens because I'm not in control of the draft."
"As a player you can only control what you can do," Campbell said. "There is no point in worrying. Whatever happens with the Draft happens and hopefully it makes us better."
Making their team better through the draft is the player's main concern.
