Looks like the top OT's will go fast, but one of the top DT's in the country isn't too shabby a pick for the Bills. At 300 lbs. is he big enough to shut down the middle?

[Carl J. Ironsides]

I'm definitely down for Pitcock in Round 1. We no doubt need another DT.

BTW, this is likely to get moved to the War Room by a mod.

[eyedog]

I would not like the Pitcock pick. He is like every other d-tackle on this team, undersized. But he "fits the system" for the Tampa-2. We will hear that a couple thousand times if he actually is their pick.

5 OT and 1 OG in the first round. Trade down and get a lower 1st round OT and then an OG and DT in the second. Resign our best CB. Best upgrade for the team.

Warroom--already posted...

No way the Bills pass on OG Justin Blalock, especially at pick 14. This team has 2 young DT's they have high hopes for already. One plays over teh C and the other plays the 3 technique.

They need to invest in some quality interior OL.

Agree. We have to give these 2 DT's a chance to develop. I would much rather go with Blalock & get Steinbach in free agency which should help out the interior of our oline.

[Merk]

I would be extremely disapointed if Sam Baker was on the board and we let him pass by along w/ about 5 other players that got picked behind us

[TRIPLE P]

Don't want Pitcock.....maybe in the 2nd....I have my doubts as to if he's fast enough for Sunday.

[FknGvna]

Troy Smith no. 30?????

Love the trading down tactic. :bills: :bills:

[TigerJ]

If Pennington pans out at RT the remainder of the year, I like the trade down option better. If he struggles and shows he's not really ready to start, I'm more inclined to stay put and pick the best available OT. I wouldn't be inclined ti take Pitcock , but if the Bills do, I understand he is strong in run defense despite not being a huge DT.

[FknGvna]

Isn't that Kyle Williams. We need a Pass rush specialist.
