Demetrius Bell-Sporting News

[BuffBills51]

I was just reading my sporting news and they had him listed on the pot of gold at the draft article. The compare him to Marcus McNeill and say "He is a project but an extremely talented one. Bell was recruited as a basketball player and didn't play organized football until 2005. He won't go until at least round 5. But he's 6'5 303, and his athletic ability jumps off the videotape. Draft him, give him two years to develop, put him at left tackle and your quarterback's blind side will be safe for 10 years."

I am hoping they are right even though we got our left tackle with Peters he could still be a steal as a late round draft pick.

Well if he becomes that talented then they just move Peters back over to the right side in a few years but I'm not getting my hopes up

If he shows the same athleticism at camp that Peters did when he first arrived i'll be pumped, i can not wait untill camp at Fisher...

I think you will see him as a first year practice squard. He needs a good year of weight training. Most corners are doing more than that.

what this guy got drafted doing 9 reps at 225 that my friend is what you call upside give this guy 2 years in an NFL training program

[RedlegBillsFan]

If he has been playing basketball for most of his life he hasn't spent much time in the weight room. I bet he bulks up to 330 or so and can do 20 reps in a year.

not really, he's got really long arms and has only been in a college (small college) football training program for 2 seasons, if that. College basketball training and college football training are two different things.

Give this kid 2 years and then see where he is...

A decent look at him here...

His feet are amazing, he's got a very lean frame.
