You could dig up my mock drafts here, Orakpo was one of the guys I took with the 11th pick quite consistently.. Although I'm sure I had different mocks, Maybin was never the 11th pick in any of them.

You cannot diss Buffalo Bill personnel moves, ever.
If you do, you're jumping the gun, not a fan, overly critical.
Problem is Maybin flat out doesn't fit the system. He's too small to play DE and not smart enough to play LB. Even on passing downs he's too small to play DE because OTs in this league are huge, athletic and have good footwork. He excelled in college on raw athleticism alone against lesser talent. At this level everyone is high talent.
To be frankly honest, I think he'd struggle in a 3-4 environment as the pass rushing OLB because of his size.
You can point out all the other smallish ends you want who have succeeded in this league, but they're the exception not the rule.
The problem is, we as Bills have to constantly try to use the exception to base our expectations on what a player is going to be here. And as you should be able to tell by now, our front office hasn't done that good of a job in draft picks.
I agree.... the #11 pick should be better than Kelsay...Originally Posted by HHURRICANE
That fact that he can get playing time over Kelsay doesn't say a whole lot about his potential.
How does a raw rookie not getting playing time over a veteran whose having arguable a career year say anything about potential?
COMING SOON...
