    Your Personal Best/Worst Case Scenario

    For me (and there are a lot of good cases, but this is my personal one)
    My best case scenario is to trade down with Philly, maybe have to throw in a 5th, and land Lito Sheppard.

    That would give us our #1 corner, move Greer into a nickel role and with the 19th pick we'd still end up with Limas Sweed, and Malcom Kelly at worse.


    My worst case scenario is standing pat with the 11th pick and drafting a cornerback. Sorry, and I respect the cases made for taking a DRC or Jenkins (MCKelvin will be gone)--but I just dont buy it. Most corners, Reevis aside, take at least 2 years before you see results.. And to me this is a team that if they make a couple of moves/picks/trades/ and get guys that will contribute big time from day one like Lynch did last year, they can contend in 2008..

    Best version:

    Draft DRC and trade for Roy Williams

    Wosrt version:

    Draft Mike Jenkins and Jordy Nelson

    Might Just happen:

    Draft DRC and Malcolm Kelly at 41

    Realistic chance:

    Draft Harvey and Hardy at 41

    Re: Your Personal Best/Worst Case Scenario

    Worst case: The Bills go with CB or DE at #11, then there is a run on the big WRs in the late first-early second rounds and the Bills either panic and trade up, reach with their second pick, or figure they'll just get whomever in the third or fourth round and Josh Reed is your opening day starter at #2 receiver.

    Best case: Trade down a few picks, pick up an extra third, and pick Sweed (my favorite WR in the draft and the WR whom is the most NFL ready IMO.) Then with three picks in rounds 2 and 3, in any order:

    TE that can start from Day 1. (Not really a huge task looking at current TEs on the roster.)

    CB to compete this year for the 3rd or 4th spot.

    DE who can rotate in and contribute.
    Remember Kevin Everett in your thoughts.

    Yeah, to be honest I don't know a heck of a lot about the players not having watched a lot of college football.

    I would like more from the DE position and I hear Harvey is highly rated, but I'd also like more of a "sure thing" at WR - it could work out terribly, I have no idea.

    I thought for a while last year that CB was the biggest issue given NE's passing game, but given what the NYG did, I just want more of an upgrade at DE.

    Re: Your Personal Best/Worst Case Scenario

    I really think the pass rush will be greatly improved with the addition of Mitchell, Stroud, Johnson, more play from McCargo, the return of Poz and better DBs that allow the ends to be more aggressive.

    Or at least I hope. I know they need a WR or CB regardless. DE is a maybe.

    My best case is to trade down, get Thomas in the first, King in the 2nd and Bennett in the 3rd or via trade back up to the 2nd.

    Re: Your Personal Best/Worst Case Scenario

    DRC or failing to get a 1st day WR is worst case.

    Best case- I agree with patmoran- trade for Sheppard and use a later 1st round pick on a WR.

    Re: Your Personal Best/Worst Case Scenario

    Best case = trade down, get the best WR in the late first, and a CB and TE with the next two picks.

    Worst case = picking our WR in the second (by that time the big 4 WR's will be gone and we'll be dealing with second tier talent, and we clearly need tier 1 talent)

    WR is our need and we have a shot at nabbing one of the best WRs in the draft. Passing it up would be stupid in my eyes unless we have a plan to trade back into the first round and pick up Sweed, Hardy, or Kelly.

    Was listening to the WGR roundtable today and I forget who said it but I totally agree with him...we've been waiting for the next Jim Kelly for over 10 years now and I think what we need to do is give Trent Edwards everything he needs to succeed which means getting him that WR thats tall, and is a red zone threat and also a playmaking TE who will stretch the defense. We need to build around Edwards, Lynch and our Oline, and once we get our WR and TE I think we'll be a middle of the pack offense instead of being dead last year in and year out.

    We stocked our defense fairly well and our offense is still depleted talent wise...we can't just grab a CB with the 11th overall and hope we can still luck out and get a good #2 WR in the second round.

    Lee Evans was 13th overall I believe, and look at how good he is. I believe in our scouting staff to pick a WR at 11 and pick the one that is definitely worthy of that pick. Another reason why I want a top tier WR is because who really knows if we're going to resign Evans...number 1, will we be able to pay him enough, and number 2, does he even WANT to be here???

    So I think drafting a WR at 11 is imperative because those 2 reasons....the need and the insurance in case Evans leaves after this year.

    If we pick CB im going to walk over to Radio City and ***** slap Jauron.

    Re: Your Personal Best/Worst Case Scenario

    For some reason I have a feeling that we will take a CB at 11. I am not the biggest fan of this...just a feeling.

    Re: Your Personal Best/Worst Case Scenario

    Best case staying put..
    1- DRC
    2- Hardy, Sweed, Kelly
    I put Sweed ahead by a hair if our docs are 100% sure his wrist will be 100%. This is basically assuming Thomas is gone, because he is a first rounder in like every single mock.

    Worst? Isn't there like 10000 scenarios? OK, does something like cut it (?)...
    1 Phillip Merling or Branden Albert
    2 Highsmith or Bowman or Dexter Jackson or Dre Moore

    Not staying put? Isn't there like 10000 scenarios? Ok, yours sounds good. Our first to the Eagles for Lito, draft Thomas or Sweed. And, I'll add a trade of our second to NY for Shockey for good measure.

    Re: Your Personal Best/Worst Case Scenario

    best case: trade down with Lions and select Devin Thomas, Reggie Smith in the 2nd, Darrell Robertson in the 3rd, Kellen Davis in the 3rd.

    worst case: DRC, trade up Malcom Kelly.

    Re: Your Personal Best/Worst Case Scenario

    Best Case: Draft Harvey at 11 and some how land Hardy as well.

    Worst Case: Drafting a CB with our first rounder.
    You're right, I am a coward! I haven't any courage at all. I even scare myself.
