Curry slipping to the Bills?
If this scenario happens, the Bills should take him...I would if that means anything
"Could LB Curry be option for Bills at 11?
By Chris Brown - Posted April 21st, 2009
With the rapid ascent of USC QB Mark Sanchez into the top 10 and Missouri’s Jeremy Maclin reportedly coveted by Oakland’s Al Davis, a premier linebacker talent could be slipping all the way out of the top 10 in Wake Forest’s Aaron Curry.
Once thought to be a lead pipe lock top five pick, Curry is sliding according to several draft insiders because he’s considered by most to a be a strong side linebacker. That’s the one that grinds with the tight end in the run game and does most of the dirty work.
If Curry slips out of the top 10 and is still on the board when the Bills pick, that’s going to make for a very difficult decision. Strong side linebacker is unquestionably a need, and Curry might be the safest pick in the draft, but he is not going to help your pass rush.
I want to say that a pass rusher is still the play at 11, despite the trade of Peters and the possibility of Curry slipping to 11, but Curry is special. If he slid that far it would really give me pause if I had to make that call.
Granted, Buffalo could still get a solid linebacker prospect at 28, 42 or heck even 75 that could compete for that starting role vacated by Angelo Crowell.
But Curry is a great talent and a future defensive captain (he has that kind of presence). If it’s Everette Brown and Aaron Curry at 11, it’s a good dilemma.
If you believe in getting your big men early you take Brown and help Buffalo’s pass rush. If you believe in trusting the value on your board I think you take Curry. What would you do?"

are surfacing that STL may take Curry at #2, and Charley Casserly has a “hunch” that the Lions will take him at #1….If curry did fall, he has to be the pick cuz the Value is so high

Gotta agree with you MARV
If Curry’s there, take him.

If he falls, and that’s a massive if, I’d take him in a cocaine heartbeat. I tried putting together a mock (I ultimately gave up) and the hardest pick to figure out was the 11- but Curry would be a no-brainer there.
Penn Staters belong at Penn State. The problem with a lot of kids is they just don’t know they are Penn Staters yet.

If he falls to 11 (which wont happen) I'd take him
He would fix our SAM position for the next 10 years, no doubt that I’d take him.

Damn right! I want me a Superman or a Hulk!
If Curry is there at 11, we take him, no questions asked!
If the Bills were a drug, I could only hope they were like speed so I could lose some weight as well.

WHAT about some IN THE LIKES of a CAPTAIN AMERICA, SWAMP THING, or THE X-MEN’S ‘JUBILEE’? Would THAT interest you?

Swamp thing could be cool. I vote no for Jubes.

I think she could put together some interesting touchdown celebrations…

I would trade whatever necessary to get this guy.
Only person in the draft I would give up more than one day 1 draft pick for.
GO BLUE!!!

I'd say, he is worth a swap and a 3rd or 4th, if he even starts to make it near Jacksonville
But I am afraid that if he is there at 10, old Singletary might be able to garner enough pull in SF to complete the ultimate LB corps
The Bills CAN win every game

Chris Brown clearly wrote this after spending an evening "Chasing the Dragon" at Lynch's house
If Curry fell to #11 the Bills would run so fast to the podium that they would go back in time and draft Haloti Ngata instead of Whitner.
