Bills 2003 Draft class

[casdhf]

After reading the article on Kelsay, I realized we had a pretty good draft...in one of the worst talent pools in rescent history. Looks like TD has done his homework, I'm going to definately cut him some slack in future drafts

Round	Pick	Overall	Pos.	Player	College
1	23	23	RB	Willis McGahee	Miami
2	16	48	DE	Chris Kelsay	Nebraska
3	30	94	LB	Angelo Crowell	Virginia
4	14	111	DB	Terrence McGee	Northwestern State
4	30	127*	WR	Sam Aiken	North Carolina
5	16	151	OG	Ben Sobieski	Iowa
6	14	187	DT	Lauvele Sape	Utah
7	14	228	MLB	Mario Haggan	Mississippi State

I see most of these players contributing heavily this season and all but 1 (sape) are going to make the team. Anyone else think this could be the best team draft of that 2003 crop??

These guys had some good drafts but I like our draft the best.

Our 2001 draft turned out pretty damn good.

McGahee was a steal and we still got Kelsay, who many wanted with our 1st round pick. The other guys, particularly McGee, are pretty good, too.

I agree. It was a great draft.

Yeah, you're right. This was probably one of our better draft years...and considering the gems we found among the undrafted last year, I wouldn't call it a bad year either!

McGee's negatives:

Negatives: Does not have a true backpedal (more of a shuffle technique) … Makes plays on the ball, but needs to refine his angle technique (misses tackles in space) … Must show more aggression and has to get more physical when attacking the receiver … Has to use his hands with more authority in press coverage … Does not show any urgency in run support (plays like he does not want any part of it).


wow did he change

that hit he put on Davenport reminded me of how Winfield used to hit players.
