Every year I like to pick a mid-draft favorite. Last year I lucked out a little with WR Ernest Wilford... and absolutely regreted it at the home opener. The year before that Quentin Griffin caught my eye and I was hoping the Bills would grab him, but he was gone just 3 picks before the Bills setteled on McGee (not horrible). This is the first year that I've decide to expose my pick.
If the Bills do finally trade Henry (on or before Saturday) and if Frank Gore is available at the 122 overall pick, I think TD will have a hard time passing him up.
TD has stated time and time again that he drafts the best overall player while trying to accomodate necessity.
Gore reminds me a lot of Henry in his ability and size. Both are 220 lbs and near 5' 10" . Gore moves the pile like Travis can, but IMO seems to have better field vision and more backfield versatility. Gore would make an excellent back up to McGahee, and with a little time and some work, he may also perform well enough to be packaged in future trade scenerios.
Obviously both McGahee and Gore know each other very well, and Gore could easily slide in and out of the Bills current offensive scheme. Of course he could and should find the field in ST situations as well.
