Dots connect Bills to linebacker from BC - Jerry Sullivan
"Buddy says not to connect the dots. I'll do it, anyway. The dots lead from the '09 draft to Kuechly, a linebacker who can cover the middle of the field for the next 10 years. If I'm wrong, well, at least it was fun."

Inside The Bills | Nix: We’ll look at everything at 10
"We’ll look. We always do," Nix said. "We look at every position. We’re certainly happy with Ryan. There’s no question about that, but we wouldn’t pass up a quarterback or any other position at 10."

Report: Bills have eyes for Kalil - The Buffalo News
"If the Bills can't or won't move up for Kalil, their best option at left tackle likely will be Georgia's Cordy Glenn, a 346-pounder who switched from guard to left tackle for his senior year and improved as the season went on. The problem in that scenario, however, is that the Bills probably would not be sticking to their draft board by taking Glenn 10th. It's likely they would have higher rated players available above him, such as Gilmore, Floyd, Alabama safety Mark Barron or Boston College linebacker Luke Kuechly."
Nix could opt for down time - The Buffalo News
"The Bills' recent draft history is sparse when it comes to trading down. The last time they did it in the first round was in 2001. In that year Buffalo traded the No. 14 selection to Tampa Bay, for first-round (No. 21) and second-round (No. 51) picks. The Bills took cornerback Nate Clements in the first and traded down again in the second round, sending No. 51 to Denver for the No. 58 pick, which they used on running back Travis Henry. Tampa, meanwhile, drafted offensive tackle Kenyatta Walker. Advantage: Bills."

Inside The Bills | Bills scout on Barron
"I think he’s a complete football player," Moody said. "He has an excellent body of work. He’s been a productive player in a very good league. He’s been a leader on a very good football team. He’s physical against the run. He can play the run from the strong safety position and he can also move to the LB position in the dime packages. He also has good cover skills against tight ends and running backs and I think he’s adequate even against wide receivers.
Inside The Bills | Quick pass game reduce OT need?
"You always want to improve," he said. "If you get better linemen you can hold the ball a little bit longer. Your run game gets better. If anything we could use some depth there. We don’t know if we’ve got a guy that can play for 10 years or not. We might already. The question is are you trying to upgrade your football team at critical positions? Tackle is a critical position in the game of football today."
Inside The Bills | OT more important than WR
"I think the left tackle is vital," said Nix. "I don’t care how good your receivers are if you’re on your back you can’t throw it to him. You’ve got to protect your quarterback first I think."
WGR 550 - SIMON: Playing Bills General Manager
" When Jamestown native Roger Goodell steps to the podium to announce the Bills selection, I'd like to hear him say the name Michael Floyd. A big, strong, fast receiver who can start right away and would look very nice lined up opposite of Stevie Johnson. Floyd had a productive career at Notre Dame and finished with back to back thousand yard seasons. He recorded 37 touchdowns over four seasons."

Bills Should Take Kuechly | Rochester Democrat and Chronicle
"What I have concluded is this: The Bills should pick Boston College linebacker Luke Kuechly with the 10th overall pick in the first round. To me, Kuechly makes a lot of sense for a a variety of reasons. He’s an every-down linebacker, not someone who has to come off the field on passing downs, and he’s a tackling machine. In other words, he’s Paul Posluszny with coverage skills."

"There is no question that Floyd would be of major interest to Buffalo when they pick in the tenth slot in a couple of nights, and depending on how the chips fall before him I’d be willing to wager that he has a very high chance at being their choice."

But on Feb. 1, 1972, the Buffalo Bills were only too happy to pass on all of them and select "Walt Patulski -- the first-team All-American who stood 6-foot-6, weighed 250 pounds and could run a 4.9 40-yard sprint -- with the top pick. And Walt, who would celebrate his 22nd birthday two days later, properly beamed."
