So how'd my Bills do?
Round 1 C.J. Spiller. Generally seen as the best RB in the draft, my take, we've already got 2 decent RB's in Lynch and Jackson so why take Spiller when we need OT's? Without a good Oline it doesn't matter how good a RB is. Anthony Davis was still on the boards and the 49ers thought enough of him to move up to take him. We probably should have taken him to shore up our LT position.
Round 2 Torell Troup. Changing from a 4-3 to 3-4 needs a good nose tackle and Stroud probably isn't that. Troup is that man. He's big and has strength to fill the void. My take, offence was the problem here
Round 3 Alex Carrington. Again a good pick to help the 3-4 D.
Round 4 Marcus Easley. A fast WR but there's concern about his catching abilities, my take, confused again as to why we've not picked up a OT.
Round 5 Ed Wang. Athletic blocker but needs work. At least he's an OT.
Round 6 Arthur Moats. Listed as a DE, but will fit the LB position better in our new 3-4.
Round 6 Danny Batten. Same as Moats.
Round 7 Levi Brown. Finally a QB, but I've never heard of him and NFL.com lists him as a solid backup, brilliant! My take, if you aren't taking Clausen or Tebow and going with what you have, and I still like Trent Edwards, then take more OT's as this has been our Achilles heel for the last few years.
Round 7 Kyle Calloway. The 2nd OT taken and has pretty good technique.
My take:-
I know our offence has been bad for years but that was because Wilson is cheap. Our last HC was defensive minded and we've had a decent defence for years but with a poor offense they spent too much time on the field and got tired. Chan Gailey is an offensive minded coach and Spiller wasn't too much of a surprise.
What did surprise me was the amount of defensive players we've taken and the lack of O'linemen.
We're in one of the strongest divisions and are looking like 4th place is ours again this year.
