I can live with Darius, or any defensive line player, I do like Bowers, if knee checks out

Mayock said there is no chance Denver passes on Dareus. So he probably knows something.
I think the Bills will look at the QB's, Patrick Peterson, and the DE's Watt and Bowers.
Denver has Robert Ayers and Dumerville at DE. I dont see them drafting a DE.
What is with all this recent JJ Watt hype? LOL Have people just heard about him or something?
We will take a QB but HOPEFULLY not at the 3rd pick. But we didn't tender Brohm so they only have Fitz and Brown on the roster. So at least one more if not two more will be added to the roster before camp, but I have no doubt that it will not be the # 3 pick.
Signed: Lawson, McKelvin, Branch, Kolb
FA Wish List: Dansby LB, Doug Legursky OG,
Resign: Byrd (tagged)
I doubt that will happen on all levels. Gabbert is too much of a question mark for the #1 spot. Denver will go with Fairley or Dareus (they released their DTs and are moving Robert Ayers up to the other DE spot in the new 4-3). My gut says they'll play it safe and pick Dareus, leaving us with Peterson, Fairley or Miller to choose from (please not Cam!)
Resign: Moore.
FA: Brandon Moore (OG) Jets.
#1) Ziggy Ansah (DE/OLB) BYU, or Dee Milliner (CB) Alabama.
#2) Tyler Wilson (QB) Arkansas, or EJ Manuel (QB) Florida
#3) Terrance Williams (WR) Baylor, or Aaron Dobson (WR) Marshall
#4) Robert Alford (CB) SE Louisiana, or Logan Ryan (CB) Rutgers (if we don't take Milliner)
#5) Matt Scott (QB) Arizona, or Chase Thomas (LB) Stanford
#6) Joseph Fauria (TE) UCLA
FA: Kicker, ILB, Renfree?
J.J Watts = The great WHITE hope
I don't want anything to do with Watts at #3 overall. There are better, more athletic players available. I can't see Nix reaching for him but then again, thats our trademark on draft day. I could see us reaching for a QB though, I'm praying Cam but I could definitely see Cam going #1 overall. There is just too many things pointing toward Cam Newton to ignore.
I want Newton and like Watts but I have a feeling deep in the pit of my stomach that he's who Gailey wants. Watts really shouldn't even be considered at #3 overall. I see it going down like this #1 overall Cam Newton(Carolina), #2 overall Von Miller(Denver) and #3 overall Marcel Dareus(Bills)

dareus is as sure a pick as you will find !![]()
"lets end this playoff drought"
If the Bills draft Dareus, their run defense should experience a significant upgrade. If they draft Bowers, the pass rush should improve, particularly if the Bills run quite a bit of 4-3. Of course, we're hearing now that Bower's knee could be an issue. I think that's why JJ Watt's name has popped up. I've also seen Cam Jordan mentioned as a possible Bills pick.
Regarding Peterson: As one pundit observed, if you draft a CB high in the first, he could figure into maybe 10-12 plays during the course of the game. Draft a lineman, and he can figure into virtually every defensive play in which he's on the field. What that means that even if Peterson is the best player in the entire draft, he's got to be a quantum leap better than the next best player to make him the obvious choice when the Bills pick.
I really dont understand you people that say you dont want a player this year if he cant get on the field this year. If you havent ralized we are more than a year away from being a playoff team, so no player ths year will help us get to the playoffs. Im not saying Newton is a cant miss player but what if he is in a year ot two? We'll be watching him play on another team and blame OBD for passing on him. Watch what you wish for all you so called experts.
Decent enough chance.
At this point, I'm fine with any of the Ds...Dareus/Fairley/Bowers/Peterson and to a lesser extent Miller. I'd also be fine with trading down for Watt/Amukamara.
