    On the RB, Spiller has a player option for next year and Freddy is a UFA... It's not atypical for the Bills to draft a position where we perceive a possible loss the following year. Seastrunk is the guy I want the most. Love that guys vision and shiftiness.

    Yeah if they intend to run the ball 550 times as a matter of course, we're going to need at least two good backs, and Freddy is a spot guy at this point IMO.

    I don't mind taking a flier on a RB in the mid rounds but with as many as we are bringing in it feels like we're making it a priority sort of like we did with QB last year. As a result we might take one sooner than later. Personally I don't like that idea.

    This kid is a player, but I don't want him at #9 and I doubt he lasts until the second rd.

    in 15 years how many "Top" CB's have we taken. without a rush, there aren't too many guaranteed lock down corners. and they get hurt. it's a waste of a pick. Especially when the team is one game changing LB away from being fairly dominant. a high round CB pick would be borderline unforgivable.

    Some of them are decidedly more "rah-rah" than others. This one also didn't feature the usual idiot rap music.

    Re: Oh Please Oh Please Oh Please

    Considering we had the most injury issues at CB last season, it's not surprising that they're looking at CB's. Plus, you're 3rd CB is basically a starter in today's NFL and more important than a 3rd LB. I'd still have issue with taking one in the first though. Along with WR and OT, CB is another position that's supposedly just as deep this year. So I'd rather wait and get a good CB after the first that can still come in and compete for that 3rd spot and provide good depth.

    We still have Gilmore for a couple years. McKelvin is locked up at a reasonable price for three more years and was probably are best and most consistent CB last year. Robey also emerged as a nice option in the slot. We also just signed Graham for four years, so unless they're confident that Graham will be moving to Safety, I just don't see the point in taking a CB in the first.

    There are 4 CBs rated above him on most lists that I've seen.

    Hmm - not in my observations of the pundit listings. CBS sports has him a 1st - 2nd rnd pick:

    http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/p...nkings/2014/CB

    All of which means - what? It's often a position that players need seasoning, time. I see him slotted 20 or below, if some club has a 1st round itch for him.

    Anyway, it looks to be an interesting draft, what with all these qbs, ols, wrs getting chatted about. I really hope BUF can swing a deal out of the 9 spot. I'm not sure but that Alonso might slip at OLB - different responsibilities, end of the free-wheeling. I feel that a concentration on OL and LB is needed. No doubt Manual gets the shot at qb.
