As proof positive that more is always better (but only once), the Fine Nine we debuted this morning - briefly described as the nine 2011 NFL Draft prospects that we believe can't be ruled out of draft conversations regarding our Buffalo Bills - just wasn't enough for this community. Emails and comments suggested that we expand our list to include a further four players in the spirit of meeting our biggest requirement.
So that's what we've done. The Fine Nine's tenure has reached its limit. This thing is now a Baker's Dozen. (That also happens to be the limit to the expansion of this list. Y'all talked us into 13 players. That's all you're getting.) Hopefully, this will eliminate some of the "coulda, woulda, shoulda," increase our chances of actually covering the player that the Bills select with the third overall pick (how neurotic are we?), and lead to some of our best pre-draft discussion yet. Numbers after the jump.
