    Re: DE at #10?

    For example I'd love Peppers. Love the way he plays. Is there a clear position for him as a tweener? No. Can he put on 10 pounds and play Will? Maybe. Might be a nice option if Zach is gone. Especially since hes more S than OLB and the league has faster TEs. Just want that guy on the field for us making plays.

    Whoever is left of:
    DE Garrett
    DT Allen
    DE Thomas
    FS Hooker
    RB Cook
    SS Adams
    LB Foster
    WR Williams
    RB Fournette
    CB Lattimore
    TE Howard
    SS Peppers

    Should be the pick. I'm also not opposed to trading down to the low teens-early 20's and looking at guys like Cunningham, Ramczyk, Ross, Humphrey, Jones, Robinson, or Barnett.
    Yes, what I've been saying. This team is badly in need of studs. My philosophy would be, draft talent and fill holes via free agency.

    If they take Peppers at #10 I give up. There is no hope for this team then. I will say anything is possible though, they did take EJ in the 1st rd.

    Peppers is an athlete, I honestly don't think he has a defined position. He's not a standout at Safety, shouldn't be taken in the first half of round 1. Not saying he's a bad player, you want to draft locks up top, Peppers needs some work.

    I'm warming to Tennessee's Derek Barnett.

    I have a feeling it's going to be Hooker or Adams.

    No Alabama players please. Ragland. Kirkpatrick, McCarron, Andre Smith etc.Injured from the git-go.

    Saban with his need for self-aggrandizement doesn't care a whit about his player's health. His graduates routinely come to the draft with injury questions, because he uses them no matter what.

    Hooker went to OSU and Davis is a LSU guy.

    I took off the guys who have zero chance at being drafted by the Bills.

    They're not taking a DE/DT with what they have and the fact they took what will end up being 2 DE's last year...Lawson and Washington. You're looking at a DLine of probably Lawson, Dareus, Williams, Hughes. So you're not gonna draft a backup at pick 10...no way, no chance, no how.

    They're not taking a TE at pick 10 since they have 34623462345 bazillion dollars tied to that position in Clay...again, backup at pick 10? Nope.

    They're not taking a RB at pick 10 since they have 325235325235 bazillion dollars tied to McCoy...same reasoning.

    So really what makes sense? Lattimore or Humphrey at CB to replace Gilmore. Hooker at Safety. Or Peppers as a Cover 2 LB. I think your pick is somewhere in that 4 guys.

    Agreed with taking TE and RB off... We'd be bat**** crazy to go after those positions early. But if Garrett or Allen are still there at 10, I think you race up to the podium to hand in your pick.

    Realistically though, Safety (if Adams or Hooker are still there) or best CB available are likely the picks. Hooker might actually still be there given he's hurt.

    TE some good prospects this year and it wouldn't shock me if took one in first three days of draft as we sorely lacking depth at the position and some of these could be matchup nightmares coupled with Clay and Watkins on the field.
