Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
Im keeping an eye on all the QB scenario's closely. With Marone in Buffalo now and Nassib as a possibly 2nd round target do they trade into the late first by that time to ensure they get their guy? Those trade downs when the team is moving up for a QB fetch more picks then the average trade down.

Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
I thought the exact same thing. If I were the Bills I wouldn't take a QB at #8 overall unless Geno Smith dropped. I think their dream scenario has got to be an impact defender like Manti Te'o, Damontre Moore, or Bjoern Werner with the 8th pick and then a QB in the 2nd. But the QB they like (very possibly Nassib b/c of the obvious Syracuse connection) could easily get grabbed ahead of them in the 2nd by the Jaguars, Chiefs, Cardinals, or Jets. I think it's pretty much a lock that a couple of those teams grab QBs around that range.
If I were Buffalo, I'd be more than willing to give up some picks to jump back into the 1st if I really liked Nassib or another guy in that range like Tyler Wilson or Matt Barkley. If I were Baltimore, I'd be more than willing to listen to that offer.

Add Jelani Jenkins to the list of cover LB's to target later in the draft, he declared today. Would be a nice get in the late 4th/5th round, could slide because of the injury.

Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
That early 2nd round will be a gaunlet for them trying to get a QB, and i just dont anybody there at 8 that anybody would pull the trigger on at this point. If not the Bills, any of those teams you named would have to jump into the late first to ensure the guy they want. If im Oz i'd let all them know that 1st rounder is available depending on whose there from our board.

Re: New draft/FA/offseason thread
FSU OT Menelik Watson is rumourd to have applied for the draft as well.
He is a project...very, very raw, but may be one of the best big athletes in this draft. I'd love to take a shot at him in the second or third.Although Walsh's system of offense can compensate for lack of talent; however, defense is a different story. According to Walsh, talent on defense was essential and could not be compensated for. What did Walsh do in 1981? He acquired physical and talented players on defense.

I also saw Tony Jefferson from OU declared...I think he is up there in the top 4 or so safeties in this draft.

Menelik Watson combines a lineman's build with a basketball player's feet and a boxer's hands.
