SO this is my first ever mock draft on buffalo rumblings.....hope everyone likesit
Alright this is a new Bills only mock draft. This draftdoes not concern FA since I have no idea what the Billswill do there. So with out further ado here goes.
1st RD Dan Williams NT Tennessee- With the hiring of George Edwards as our DCtoday,and his stated intentions of converting the Bill's to a 3-4 its absolutely essential to get a guy that can anchor the NT position. Williams is the pick here for that reason. But in real life I could see the Bills trading back 4 or 5 spots before taking him.
2nd RD Jerry Hughes OLB TCU- Thisis another pick to help us get switched to the 3-4 as rapidly as possible. He's a great prospect as a Rush LB and with him onboard our linebacker corps would be Maybin,Mitchell,Poz,Hughes. And if Schoebel returns we can use him as a situational pass rusher. Thats also possibly the most talented LB corps the Bills have had in the last 10 years.
3rd RD Jason Fox OT Miami- Thisis a guy who's stock has fallen a little bit recently. But hes's big and physical with a ton of talent and would do a nice job of solidifying our depth along the O line.
4th RD Levi Brown QB Troy- While I know you all have the LeFevour fever however I like Brown better as a pro QB prospect. He's bigger,and has a stronger arm. He's also definetly a guy worth grooming to be our QB of the future.
5th RD Andrew Quarless TE Penn State-He's a speedy receiving TE who would do well paired up with Nelson. I also think either Fine or Schouman will be gone this offseason and this guy is a definite upgrade from either one of them.
6th RD Reggie Carter ILB-This guy has good size and is a nice depth pick for our LB corps. No more 220 pound linebacker's let us celebrate.
6th RD James Starks RB Buffalo-We need some depth at the RB position and Stark's is a local college product with some talent ,so why not?
7th RD Trindon Holliday WR/KR LSU-He's the fastest man in college football and a heck of a returner. He's DeHaven's pick here in the 7th. And IMO he really is a value pick.
7th RD
Eric Cook C New Mexico. -He's a 6 foot 6 mauler and well worth taking a flyer on in the 7th rd. Plus the man only gave up one sack all last year.
Just another great fan opinion shared on the pages of BuffaloRumblings.com.

i think you went too defensive on this mock
i would bet, in my opinion, 1rd will be either offense or defense and then the 2nd round will be the opposite.
for example 1st round is mcclain and 2 round is an OT or 1st round is an OT and 2nd round is spikes type of thing.

and defensive as in the first 2 rounds
which i think should be immediate starters/impact players. i really dont pay attention beyond round 3 most of the time on these mocks…..not a digg, just no one knows how it will all play out.

here's your wide receiver pick
in case you’re wondering, he’s the one on the left.

Hey man Barry Sanders was 5’8" height don’t mean much for a punt/kick returner in my mind. In fact I think that being small helps them. And for all we know the guy beside him is like a 6’10" freak.
But when it comes to 7th rounders, size is a bit more of an issue.

at 5’5/160 my concern would be his durability when getting squashed by guys like the one in the picture. Can you imagine Fitz trying to hit this guy with a pass? I view him more as a luxury pick rather than a value pick. This guy projects as a kick returner in the NFL and not much else. We’ve suffered enough from spending draft picks on special teams specialists. If he was 20 pounds heavier and the same speed then I’d feel differently. That’s why I like Jacoby Ford.

5’5" 160? yeah he is going to get killed in the NFL. Lets not spend a pick on this guy.
Although I can’t help but think he’d be dinomite in the CFL.

Thats why I have him as a 7th rounder.
The 7th rd is the time to take a flyer on guys. That way if it dont work out it’s not really a big deal. Butif it does you have anexplosive player for cheap for afew years.

can we draft the big guy for anything… or is that just Jamarcus Russell?
Still waiting for the playoffs.... Go Bills 2010 !!!!
I’m good with the Williams pick if we trade down to about 15 or so. Not sure what we get in return for trading down though.
Pass on Levi Brown. Probably a huge reach in the 4th. He’s more like 6th or 7th round and some scouts even have him as a UDFA. Probably not the franchise fans were hoping for.
Trindon Holliday. Muggsy boags in cleats.
Otherwise, not real exciting but not bad either IMO

I said it in another post
but it feels like everyones getting 3-4 fever just because we know we’re switching to one. It doesn’t change the fact that we need a QB. I still think OBD tries to trade with KC for the fifth pick if Rams pass on Jimmy Clausen. We give the Chiefs our 9 and a pick and they still get their left tackle at 9 while we get our QB after the Skins take theirs. Just because we have a 3-4 to tend doesn’t change the fact our offense is in shambles. And our HC is CHAN GAILEY. We will go more offense than this draft.
For the record, I’m ok with Dan Williams if Bradford and Clausen are gone but only if we trade down to get him.

please no Clausen, He will be a bust if we draft him, I know alot of people think we should get him, but my gut tells me he is not the one we want, I could be wrong but I don’t think I Am.
There's not a wide receiver who is fast enough, that J.P. Losman can't overthrow him on a fly pattern.

You’d have to think every single QB in this draft is going to bust if Clausen is such a sure bust…

I doubt Clausen will ultimately be a bust in the NFL. Having said that, ANYBODY can be a bust playing for the Bills. If we can make a pre-draft deal for a serviceable veteran Nose Tackle, then I’ve got no problem with Clausen at #9 as I believe there will be decent Left Tackle prospects available in round 2. We must be focused on building a competitive TEAM, not just collecting popular draft picks.

how do you feel about Sam Bradford?

I’d prefer Bradford over Clausen. Clausen sort of reminds me of Jay Cutler personality-wise. Big ego’s and thin skin are bad things for anyone who has to play in Buffalo. Bradford just seems like a more complete, refined and mature leader. Intangibles, I know, but that’s just my gut feelings.

NO 1st Round QB's please....
This team needs to be built from the O & D lines to be successful. Taking a QB in the first 3 rounds of the draft precludes us from drafting players who could perhaps come in and improve our team immediately. Honestly, would Clausen or Bradford do any better than the QB’s we have on the roster now with the O line in the shape it’s in? IMHO, no way. In fact, if we go that route, I think the poor QB will be beaten and defeated (sound like anyone on our current roster?) so bad he may be irreparable. Which necessarily means we will be talking about having to draft a franchise QB again in 2-3 years. Trade down, get an extra mid round pick, take Bulaga or the best T available in the 1st, take a Spikes or a strong NT candidate in the second and, if QB still is something they absolutely feel the need to address, do it in rounds 4-6. IMO, QB for this year should be addressed in FA. I know there isn’t a lot to choose from but perhaps a creative deal involving trading down from #9 could be worked with a team that has a serviceable QB they are willing to part with.

I completely disagree. In the NFL there is one way to consistently make the playoffs and be a threat to win the Super Bowl and that’s to have a great QB. It’s a complete myth that good NFL QBs were drafted with great lines in place. Guys like Eli Manning, Phil Rivers, Tom Brady and Matt Ryan were all drafted while their teams were overhauling bad OLs and Drew Brees was signed as a FA when NO had an awful OL. Buffalo can’t take a one step at a time rebuilding approach and even if they did, the QB should be the first step if they have the chance to draft somebody they think can be the franchise guy.

I’d still rather they get McClain to absolutely solidify our LB corps, but if they were to trade down for Williams I would not complain.

Love Jerry Hughes
but I would take Cody in the first if he were still available if you wanted to draft a NT.
My gut feeling
Is we shou;d trade down and get MT Cody, he is the first piece of the puzzle, fixing the mistake of letting Ted Washington, and Pat Williams walk. This is very important if we are going 3-4. Cody is who we want, run stopper, might develop a pass rush. If not we have Kyle Williams for passing downs.
