    The Case for Huff

    Seeing that we are running a Cover 2, it seems to me like we can afford to have above average CBs and get by. Seeing that the Clements situation shows no sign of improving (or that he's a good fit for this defense cost-wise), we may be in a position to trade him now, possibly for a low 1st/high 2nd. Seeing that Vincent has corner experience, we may be able to utilize him more properly at that position. Seeing that we need a stud in the deep defensive backfield and that both Ngata and Bunkley seem to be a reach at #8 (as do any OTs or OGs), maybe we should seriously consider drafting Huff if we stay at the #8 pick.

    I feel really good about the DTs available at #42 and the OTs and OGs at #70 and #73. This means we have to bank on our Eric King a bit more, but I think he's ready for it. To me, this would be the most efficient way to address our needs while instantly making us an improved team.

      That's the one that did it for me. The guy is sick... a rarity in talent.

        I agree 100% before reading it. Huff to Buff. He can't be any worse than the last guy we took from Texans in the top 10.

            Vince Young (left) with the Maxwell Award and Michael Huff with the Jim Thorpe Award

            Huff recorded 97 tackles -- nine for losses -- during the 2005 season. He owns UT records for career interceptions returned for touchdowns (four) and most touchdowns scored by a defensive back (five).

            "Michael is the smartest player I've ever coached," co-defensive coordinator Duane Akina told the Dallas Morning News.

                  I would happily deal Clements for a 1st and a later pick, but Levy has stated he sees Huff as a S. So we still have a CB hole unless we plan to let King, Greer step up or move Vincent back bc there is less man coverage required in a cover 2.

                    There are still unsigned CB's...Ty Law, Ahmed Plummer...

                      Id be happy to sign one of those and make this happen, Im just pointing out that if we draft Huff he will be a S not a CB.

                        Well we did cut Milloy, and if we were to trade Clements for a late 1st we can draft a CB rather than sign a vet...

                          I have actually grown to like Huff more and more. I think Cromartie is the best corner in the draft but I think Huff would be best for us.

                            Huff would be a great pick. We could still get a DT and OL on Day 1.

                              I would certainly NOT trade Clements and draft a DB to take HIS spot.

                              That's nothing more than addition by subtraction.

                              That improves the Bills how?
