NFL Draft Info - Buffalo Bills

Hello, I will be doing Buffalo Bills "mock drafts" until the draft comes upon us. But first i'd like to look at the last seasons' draft and do a little review.

We ultimatly had 8 total selection in the draft and we had some very good picks, here's a review

Aaron Maybin- Up to this point i'd have to give this pick an D-. But that is only because the coaches didn't play this guy much at all last seaon. Was i super excited when the Bills made this pick, NO( i was personally a huge Orakpo fan). Orakpo and Brian Cushing are both pro-bowlers( never was i a huge Cushing fan) but we also have a rookie pro-bowler who i'm sure you all know who i will discuss later. Back to Maybin, he had a great junior year at Penn State which ultimatly had him shoot up the boards in the draft. This kid is a work in progress and I think he will end up being a hybrid OLB/DE because he is way undersized to be a DE. Anybody heard of Vernon Gholston, that's who I think of when i think of Maybin. POTENTIAL is thw word.

Eric Wood- Our second 1st round pick which we got when we traded Jason Peters. Up to know i give it a C+, but only because he had that grueome leg inury. He's a great blue collar OG-C and he is extremely good looking as well. I think he has a bright future in the NFL and was what we needed to solidify that middle of the O-Line.

Jairus Byrd- Well i'm sure we all kno about this kid the ballhawk FS from Oregon and so far his grade is an A++. He was finaminal and was tied for the NFL lead with 9 INT's to end the season, eventhough he didn't play in about 5 games. I do have a minor problem with his INT's though and it's about 4-6 of those INT's were very easy to get, they were overthrown and went right to him. Maybe i'm dumb and he has a natural instinct of where the ball will be thrown and let's hope he does because if that is the case this kid has HOF written all over him!

Andy Levitre- Absolutly awesome this year i give him a A-. He was by far our best OL man and didn't get injured at all and as well he played great. Him and Wood are going to be a very strong middle to this OL for a long time.

Shawn Nelson- Another great pick and so far i give hi a B grade. Great reception TE and athletic. He was also very impressive for us and he also has a bright future. I am a huge fan of this kid and hehas the POTENTIAL to become an NFL stud!

Nic Harris- Well he played some and was decent at OLB and so far i gve him a C. He played some OLB for us this year and wasn't awful. I see him as a solid #4-5 OLB that will be useful.

Cary Harris- I didn't even know this guy existed until the seasons end when he had a 2 pick game against Indy. I can't say much but hopefully he becomes a solid back up.

Ellis Lankster- Absolutly no idea

Hope you enjoyed it!
