    What would you trade for Reggie Bush?

    Lets face it: As of now, there isnt anyone who both fits a big need and is a bigtime player worthy of the pick likely to be sitting at 8.

    Now, theres a few possibilities:

    1) A player currently ranked lower steps up at the combine and earns 8 pick worth...Ngata is a guy that this could happen to
    2) A player ranked higher at a bigtime need drops a bit due to some "concerns"
    3) We go against our needs and take the best available...Vernon Davis or Deangelo Williams
    4) We trade down
    5) We trade up

    Obviously the spirit of this thread talks to #5.

    Many consider McGahee a "play when I feel like it" player,substantiated by his miserable numbers toward the end of the season and with playoff hopes dashed.

    McGahee has shown a chip on his shoulder with comments like "Im the best RB in the league"

    Drew Rosenclown is McGahee's agent making any long term deals with him hard

    I love McGahee and think he is a very good RB. But, if the #8 pick goes like it looks today, and you consider the above concerns with McGahee, Im not sure I could disagree with a move up to #1 to take Reggie.

    How about sending our #8 overall, and McGahee to Houston for the #1. Id maybe even throw in as much as a 4th.

    Why? What is so special about Bush? Well, I have followed the draft for at least the past decade very closely and IMO, there has not been a better RB prospect since Barry Sanders. That includes guys like Marshall Faulk and LT.

    A guy like that doesnt come along but once in a decade or so. Hes that good.

    Now, if Ngata steps up in the combine or if D'Brick drops a bit, I say a move like this is off. But If those dont happen and we cant get a good trade down partner before the draft. I might just make this move. How bad was it for NO to trade Ricky? Indy to trade Marshall?

    Houston would never take that trade.. If they didnt' want Bush, they sure as hell dont want Willis. Buffalo would have to give up Willis, their first pick and probably second as well to even have a chance, which they will never (and better not) do.

    I agree with you and probably in the minority, if I'm Houston I take Bush I dont care how many other needs they have. He can turn a franchise around by winning games with spectacular plays NO RB in the NFL can do.

        I agree with ICE i mean yeah he dominated but look he played in the PAC 10 when he did play against Texas he wasn't dominate like everyone said he would be. He's a good player but i say stay the course with team we got. Willis is a good back not great not dominate but good. Maybe if things change on this team so will his attitude. I know it's a far cry but hey it could happen.

          What can they REALISTICALLY do though?

          Who do you have as being so worthy of a top 10 pick, much less an 8 pick?

          Forget D'Brick and Ngata hasnt proven enough yet. Whos left that isnt a reach?

          Its a worry for sure.

          I think Vernon Davis is a stud for sure, but can we go TE with an 8 pick?

            I think a name being lost in all the glory of USC is the kid from Memphis. He was a great back that plaed on a sub par team. But thats my opinion

            Besides if the bills QB situation sucks by next years draft i say the bills draft Troy Smith from The University Of OHIO STATE

              There are guys that can start in the 2nd and 3rd rounds of this draft if we pick correctly. That said, there are about 20 players that can be worth the 8th pick... if we pick correctly. Ngata is worth the 8th pick and so are a couple TE's.

                I agree, Id love to land Deangelo. He isnt the next Barry Sanders, but LT? Yeah, I can see that.

                  I would trade J.P. Losman, Justin Bannan, Ryan Denney, Chris Kelsay, Shaud Williams and every other worthless player on the roster. Think that would whet ol' Kubiak's appetite?

                    LOve you man, but I cant back taking aguy just because its need. Ngata isnt worth the 8 pick right now. In fact no DT is.

                    How in the heck can you state that 20 players are worth the 8 pick? Thats the fuzziest math Ive ever heard.

                    Im going ultra conservative in this draft. If the guy isnt a good enough all around talent to garner a top 10 pick, we have no business drafting him at 8. Thats just how I feel.

                      Your right

                      Also Barry Sanders was like Michael Jordan there won't be anthor one of those guys for awhile.

                        IMO Bush is a little overrated. Time will tell but I think Bush could drop to the #8 draft spot after the combine. If I'm not wrong he is only a result of the best OL the USC ever had. If you check, all the USC OL will be gone on day one...

                          wow.

                          This has to be one of your more baseless threads.

                          Ill give you OL prospects sure, big drop off after Brick. And while DL takes priority, the Bills could draft almost anyone and "fit a big need".

                          So where do Hali, and Ngata who for whatever reason you feel arent worth it, fall?

                            I wouldn't trade for him... You have to give up way too much so you can't address any other needs. Where are you going with a great RB but no blockers or defense. Too many teams are 20-30 million under the cap and can outbid the Bills for many free agents.

                              You sound as dumb as Chavious saying Reggie McNeil is the best player in this draft. Sorry, but you do. You can't sit there and say Ngata isn't worth the #8 pick. He is.
