I'd love for there to be 2 or 3 of those players there and have them trade down 4-6 spots to take Bunkley.
I don't see the Bills as having anywhere near the worst receiving core in the NFL. Evans is an excellent receiver just now entering his prime. I think Andre Davis has the potential to be a good #2, and Parrish could be a dangerous stretch the field guy. With those three on the field, they are probably the FASTEST group in the NFL.Sure, they could use Davis, but there are a lot of other things they could use more.Vernon Davis. You could argue that they have the worst receiving core in the NFL. I think they would be foolish to pass on Davis. Any homer views?

Look on the bright side. Even if Levy screws it up, you'll still have the 1.01 in '07.
Do the Bills already have the Raiders #1 in 07?Look on the bright side. Even if Levy screws it up, you'll still have the 1.01 in '07.

They seem to always be and If it wasn't for a late Justin Miller Kickoff Return last year the Jets would be looking at the 2nd or 3rd pick in this draft - I think they let him go by.I'll probably be at that great matchup in Buffalo.Our divisional games against the Jets will be especially crucial this year.I'm sure the Jets and 49ers will give us a good runLook on the bright side.

Compared to Philly, Buff WR are talented and experienced!! As for V Davis going to Buff, I doubt it's on thier Top 3 needs.... OL, DL & QB.Vernon Davis. You could argue that they have the worst receiving core in the NFL. I think they would be foolish to pass on Davis. Any homer views?

Who's the QB now? Whoever it is needs time to find his current WRs. Davis would help open the offense, but I think the assumption for most is he won't slide that far, and I agree - OL/DL is the greater need.Worse receiving groups - San Fran, Jets (arguably), Philly (although once you factor in Westbrook, no), Chicago, MN, DetroitI don't see the Bills as having anywhere near the worst receiving core in the NFL.

Seriously, I don't get why *nobody* is talking about the possibility of the Bills taking a QB at #8. I understand we have burning needs on both lines, but our new regime seems to want to dump Losman (prematurely IMO, but that's beside the point) and I can't really believe they want to hitch their wagon to Craig Nall or Kelly Holcomb. If I were a GM entering my first season with a brand-new coach, knowing that my team was going to suck this year anyway, and wanting to rid myself of the previous regime's signalcaller, I think I would want to grab a QB if I had the chance.
Craig Nall will be a superstar.
I'd add in the Falcons, GB (sans Walker anyway) and potentially NE as well (let the complaining begin). The Bills aren't at the top by any stretch, but I think that they can be a solid unit. I believe that Evans has #1 material. He runs decent routes, has burner speed, good hands and can make the tough catch. The #2 will probably be up for grabs going into training camp. I hope they give Sam Aiken a legitimate shot at it. I think that he has pretty good abilities and can be an NFL calibre WR. With the money they gave Reed I think they believe that he'll be the #2 though. He has the ability, but he needs to get in the game mentally a little better. Parrish is still a #3 right now IMO. He could be a great #2 eventually, but right now he would be an excellent #3 in the mould of Kevin Curtis.Who's the QB now? Whoever it is needs time to find his current WRs.

Oh this is going to be entertaining for quite some time.....
TE is a position of need for Buffalo, but not their biggest need.The draft is rich in TE's this year, as the list is a good 5-10 deep with starter talent.Vernon Davis.

I almost added New England, but if we include TEs in this discussion, I had to leave them out. Same with Atlanta, Alge, White, Jenkins plus Dunn is a good receiving RB vs. Evans, Everitt and Parrish/Reed? I'm taking Atlanta there. GB is probably worse without Walker until/unless Murphy returns.I agree, the OL is weak. Some potential, but when one of your top linemen just learned the position after being a TE, that could cause problems. Peters is strong, but if they don't draft OL in the first, maybe Jean-Giles falls to their 2nd?I'd add in the Falcons, GB (sans Walker anyway) and potentially NE as well (let the complaining begin).

But the Bills have probably the worst offensive line in football. The only one that was as bad as they were was the Texans' and they've gotten better. They just simply have to improve the O-line. Their run defense also went from one of the best in the league to one of the worst with the loss of Pat Williams. So that's a pretty large area of concern as well.
That's true. And I guess since it's a discussion about Vernon Davis we should be including TEs. So I can buy that reasoning. All in all I guess my belief is that the OL is the biggest need and has been for quite a few years now. A good offensive lineman can make an impact in both the passing and rushing game. A WR or TE makes most of their contribution in just the passing game.I almost added New England, but if we include TEs in this discussion, I had to leave them out.

#1 Reason. Losman. Cost them 2 first round picks, and looked pretty good for a guy who only played 8 games.#2. Nall. Seems to be the favorite for fans to start. Looked good in a Packers uni.
I too believe Craig Nall will be....super-adequate QB. I think he will pull a Jake Delhomme and become a fixture in Buffalo. Superstar may be a reach, sufficient starter and one of the biggest surprises of 2006-2007 season is not. Jump on the bandwagon while their is still room.
In the Jets' defense, we lost our top 2 QBs in the same week. I think the Vinny thing was a huge mistake - he wasn't the answer and we should have given Brooks a chance earlier. I do think we would have been competitive with Fiedler. Ramsay has shown spots of excellence in the past and I'd be pretty happy if he took over for Chad.
Because they paid a ton to get him and he's only had two years, one as a (partial) starter. It was well-known before the draft that he was talented, but would probably need a few years to develop. If they can get the running game going then he'll be fine. He looked terrible at the beginning of the year but came around a little in the 2nd half. It didn't helf him that Kelly Holcomb is a very good, experienced QB (yes, I mean that).
