Mock Drafts - who the Bills will pick

[Dozerdog]

This site is pretty cool (http://www.fantasyfootballjungle.com/y/nfl-draft/positions/top100.php)- they chart hundreds of mock drafts that all the internet sites have and they keep track of who is taking whom.




The most popular is NGata, with almost 395 mocks (65% of the total) having the Bills selecting him

There is a huge dropoff- only 30 or so sites have the Bills taking Williams (8%)

Same goes for Winston Justice

About 30 sites have the Bills taking Ferguson - if he's still there. I beleive the Jets are the most popular choice http://www.billszone.com/coppermine/albums/userpics/10003/FERGUSONCHART.bmp

18 sites having the Bills go for Jimmy Williams

Hey, what's up Christopher Walken?

You stab anyone in the face with a soldering iron lately?

I've grown to appreciate the therapeutic value of a good stabbing with a soldering iron like yourself - but I have some questions about proper technique - should I use a jabbing technique, or a twisting fore-arm with a little more shoulder grease in it kinda technique?

Buffalo Bills Ngata, Haloti, DT Oregon
If you were given a pen and paper and asked to draw the ideal defensive tackle, your best bet would be to Google “Haloti Ngata” and paste his picture on the page. He is a massive human being, yet enough of an athlete to be more than just a “rock” in the middle of the field. My concern with him is that he takes plays off, which is a huge red flag for defensive tackles. All the high first round defensive tackle busts—Andre Wadsworth, Dan Wilkinson, Gerard Warren, etc.—had that same red flag on their draft profiles. Personally, I think Ngata could very well be on that list in a few years, but there’s no denying his potential.
Dick Jauron recently announced he’s planning to continue running a 4-3 defense in Buffalo, ensuring that Ngata would indeed be a nice fit with the Bills. If Sam Adams is brought back, him and Ngata would be one of the beefiest tackle duos in football. Buffalo could build its defense in the same way the Ravens did in 2000: around a pair of monster tackles. The team already has a good secondary and talent at linebacker, so Ngata may be just what this defense needs. Again, I’m not his biggest fan, but I could certainly be wrong.

If we didn't have TKO, his 'red flag' would be a concern for me, but I think that if he thinks he's gonna take plays off, TKO, Adams, McGee and Fletcher will rip him a new one.

This is a good anaylysis from one of the mock drafts!

New York Jets Ferguson, D'Brickashaw, OT Virginia
An elite prospect in every sense, Ferguson represents a complete 180-degree shift from the offensive tackle of 5 years ago. Back then, land monsters like Leonard Davis and Mike Williams were being selected in the top 5 under the assumption that they could learn how to pass block once they got in the NFL. Well, dozens of Dwight Freeney sacks later, and teams are re-thinking what’s important at the tackle position. Weighing in at less than 300 pounds, Ferguson is the ideal answer to pass rushers like Freeney, and is the best pass blocker to enter the NFL since Orlando Pace.
After entering last season with huge expectations, the Jets had a colossal collapse, and have been left with all sorts of questions to answer this off-season. While offensive line is certainly one of them, I think running back is the team’s most pressing need. Therefore, as mentioned in the explanation of the Texans’ pick, I think there’s a significant chance that Houston will be the team selecting in the #4 spot come draft day. If the Jets hold onto this spot, we could just as easily see DeAngelo Williams selected here. However, the team would still be thrilled with Ferguson, and he’d go a long way towards protecting Chad Pennington next year. It’s also much easier to get a decent running back than a starting left tackle in the later rounds, so the team might be inclined to take D’Brick here because he’s better value.

I am really not big on Ngata... Not sure why but is more of just a gut feeling...

[ublinkwescore]

That's why the draft is called a crapshoot.

I'm the exact way. I had same feeling about Harrington when he came out.

Maybe it's those gay Oregon jerseys...

Tamba Hali anyone?

Joe Paterno has said himself that he's the best DE he's ever worked with and the real reason that that Penn State D was so nasty.

But what the hell does Joe Paterno know, right?

[ParanoidAndroid]

I have not seen another profile repeat that negative info on Ngata. I have read the opposite several times. I was able to watch him twice this season and he seemed to give top effort on every play, fighting double and even triple teams.

Hali has got to be way up there. He seems to be Marv's type of player and his stock keeps rising. I wouldn't mind that pick at all.

Scouting Report by Tyrron Hinton Email him...
Pros: Tremendous speed from the corner. Is not afraid to mix it up on run downs either. Has great instincts and moves very well.
Cons: Tends to play himself out of plays at times. He is also a bit undersized to play in the 4-3 scheme. However, so is Dwight Freeney.
Overall: Tamba Hali is a beast. He is overshadowed by Paul Posluzny, who is his teammate. He is also overshadowed by A.J. Hawk and Bobby Carpenter from Ohio State. That is good because Tamba is under the radar right now. I see him being a late first, early to mid second round pick. Will be a pro-bowler.

[FlyingDutchman]

does anyone think we have a realistic chance having brick or williams falling to us? or is it just a pipe dream?

[TigerJ]

It is a long shot for either Ferguson or Williams, but stranger things have happened in the draft. I think Hali is going mid to late first round. He would be very much a reach for the Bills at #8.

You've got to give any draft prognosticator points for originality in picking Cuttler to go to Buffalo. It's not going to happen but it's creative at least.

[DraftBoy]

Id love to trade down 5-7 spots and snaggind Hali. Would be a good move imo.
