    Just about all of TD's first rounders were good picks.

      Good: Getting Bledsoe. Yes it was a great move at the time.

      Bad: Inactive FA this year when there were big needs.

      I don't put too much blame on the drafts. Who knew MW would be a bust. But I do kind of blame him for the Coy Wire experiment.

        The Coy Wire exp. was supposed to be a great move at one time too. Just didnt pan out. Then again, its not like he has had every chance in the world to prove himself.

            I don't think you experiment that high in the draft. Big deal that he can jump out of a pool.

                    2001: Nate Clements: Donahoe's best 1st round pick, imo. Nate will clearly be missed next season if he doesn't comeback. You people hating on Nate will be hating on McGee next year.

                    2002: Mike Williams: Don't know if it was poor coaching or he's just a bust.

                    2003: Traded first pick for Bledsoe. Got first round pick from Atlanta and Drafted McGahee.

                    2004: Lee Evans: Will he be good enough to be the teams #1 WR? JP Losman a reach at QB. Most likely will end up a bust.

                    2005: No 1st rounder, was traded to Dallas so the Bills could get Losman.

                      Best move: I say Terrence McGee. ProBowl return man/very solid CB from the 4th round. He has been a bright spot on the past couple of seasons. I'm sure glad they've got him extended.

                      Worst move: Going with both Gregg Williams and Mike Mularkey as his hires at HC during his tenure.

                      Other good highlights:
                      Getting a first/Willis for Peerless was sweet!
                      Signing TKO was huge!

                        Re: List your favorite and worst TD move as Bills GM

                        Best:

                        1. The peerless price trade was a thing of beauty, he engineered that to perfection.

                        2. Most of his 1st round draft picks were pretty good

                        3. Bringing Spikes/Fletcher here.

                        Worst:

                        1. Mike Williams. Although no one can fault him for that, at the time he and McKinnie were it and most any team would have done the same.

                        2. General lack of OL attention

                        3. Mike Mularkey/Gregg Williams. Had he signed any of the HC's at the time that were available hed probably still be employed.

                        4. not re-signing Pat Williams

                          Favorite: Signing Takeo Spikes

                          Worst: Mike Mularkey

                            I agree about Clements.

                            But how can you excuse MW as lack of coaching yet dismiss JP as a bust!?

                              Getting Sam Adams was huge too.
