Adam Schefter, of the NFL Network, reports the Buffalo Bills will conduct a pre-draft visit with Oregon DT Haloti Ngata Tuesday, April 18.

Not the player I want the Bills to take at that spot, but we will see.

i heard an interview with bunkley on sirus too and he said he already met with the bills.

Now, that I could live with! Bunkley before Ngata...

Why? I have no problem with either. The kid had a hell of a combine in addition to a good year.

[Devin]

Yeah id take either, personally I believe Ngata to be the better of the two when you compare all aspects of each (not just skill/athleticism but other "intangibles")

That being said id be happy with either.

[The Spaz]

Bunkley over Ngata IMO.

[ublinkwescore]

Bunkley over Ngata IMO.

I'd go with that too, we already have our runstopper in Triplett, now we need the pass rusher, and that is Bunkley.

I will be honest I would rather have NGATA, I never really liked players that come out of the 3 big Florida schools......Bunkley also has some drama behind him I think NGATA is a Bills prototype....

Being a fan of the Canes, I always find it somewhat harder to like a Bills player from UF or FSU but I always say I won't like them that much right up until the time I hear there name called, then I fall in line like the rest of us. No reason to fault him for making a bad decision 4 years earlier. With that said, I think Bunkley is the better fit as nearly everyone has pointed out, when it comes to our new D.

Trips is the pass rusher.
Bunkley or Ngata would be the run stopper.

[ublinkwescore]

If triplett's the pass rusher, where the hell are his sacks at?

[ICE74129]

Exactly

Go read some of the articles on trips and how the bills staff saw as when they signed him.

I've been a little wary of Bunkley too, for character reasons. But there's a pretty good article on Sportsline today:

I feel a little better about the dude after reading that.

Either way, I don't think either Bunkley or Ngata would be a bad pick. Would feel a little better about both though if we had the, say, 12th pick. If Mario, Brick, Hawk, or Davis are still on the board, I'd take one of those guys.

Ngata is the greatest DT prospect to come along since Bob Lilly. We must draft him, or we'll never win the Super Bowl.

SB? Lets make the playoffs first.

[R. Rich]

No problem. Draft Ngata, and he'll take care of the rest.

I sure like the sound of that comparison - they do have similarities.

If what you are saying is so, then forget Hawk and the others if Ngata is available.

[Night Train]

I heard Ngata went to Duffs for lunch and never returned. He's working on his 4th bucket as we speak.

[ublinkwescore]

screw that - I want Bunkley - he's the Julius Peppers of DEs.

[Tatonka]

I'd go with that too, we already have our runstopper in Triplett, now we need the pass rusher, and that is Bunkley.

wow.. do you live in the universe of the backwards?

triplett is a runstopper? since when?

triplett is a passrusher and we need a runstuffer.

ngata is the pick.

[Tatonka]

good article on bunkley. i would be happy with him or ngata honestly.

[casdhf]

I don't think either player would be a reach at our spot.

[Kerr]

wow.. do you live in the universe of the backwards?

lol

4th bucket ..that's nothing .. When ngata walked in Aaron gibson was finally leaving after being there for two weeks.. The owners were overheard saying heck who needs the mega millioans with these two .. They haven't been this happy since Jamie nails and ted washington were in town...
