4 different Mock drafts courtesy of FFJungle 3 rounds....

[evans555]

4 different writers on the site....have to say I like the First mock the best. I'll post the links too for the Dolphins fans on this site

Personally I think the first mock I posted is the best, address the defensive side of the ball and get a vet WR in the FA pool ....I feel manningham is too much of a reach in the second round

Here is AK Daniel: http://www.fantasyfootballjungle.com/2008_nfl_mock_draft/A_K_Daniel/297/1a

Rd 1- 11. Buffalo Bills - Gholston, Vernon, DE Ohio State

Gholston will be one of the best DE's to come out of this draft, and if not for systems that call for larger ends, he could have gone in the top 10. If the Bills do not go DE here, they could go with a OL. This is a deep draft class on the O line and they can get a quality Lineman later on.

Rd 2- 41. Buffalo Bills - Taylor, Terrance, DT Michigan

The Bills can do in one year, what many teams try to do over a period of two or three or more. Look at the Texans and the criticisim they took for taking Mario Williams. Well, add Okoye and now who is laughing. Williams ranked among the leagues leaders in sacks and Okoye had a solid rookie season. Taylor is a big stuffer in the middle and combined with Gholston, they should be able to contain runs and get pressure in passig situations.

Rd 3- 71. Buffalo Bills - Manningham, Mario, WR Michigan

The Bills get a compliment to Lee Evans who may be the most under rated WR in the league. The Bills lack of weapons on offense allow tems to double him over the top with the saftey and get away with it because they do not have to respect the run either at this point.


72. Buffalo Bills - Schuening, Roy, OG Oregon State

This pick should help to create some respect in the run game. Schuening is a monster interior lineman and will be able to open holes up the middle, pull and clear the corner and pick up interior blitz schemes without much trouble. Should adapt quickly due to the fact that he plays in the Pac 10 and sees a lot of sophisticated blitz packages from teams like USC, Oregon, and Arizona.

Rd 1- 11. Buffalo Bills - Rivers, Keith, OLB USC

Paul Posluzny actually looked pretty good before getting hurt. Despite bigger needs, they have to take a linebacker here, though, for value. Rivers is a good value at 11, and he'll be a top LB for a long time. Plus, you always need insurance in case Posluzny doesn't come back as good as he was.

Rd2- 41. Buffalo Bills - Manningham, Mario, WR Michigan

The Bills added some defensive help in the first round, but they seriously need another offensive target to help take the pressure off of Lee Evans, who would get double-teamed and shut down. Mario Manningham would draw corners and safeties away from Evans with his big-play potential, leading to Evans getting open quicker.


Rd3- 71. Buffalo Bills - Davis, Fred, TE USC


72. Buffalo Bills - Laws, Trevor, DT Notre Dame



Next....Matt Chase: http://www.fantasyfootballjungle.com/2008_nfl_mock_draft/Matt_Chase/92/1a


Rd1- Buffalo Bills - Clady, Ryan, OT Boise State

Clady is sky rocketing up draft boards as one of the premiere OT prospects in this class. The Junior form Boise St is a gifted athlete with tremendous body control and feet. He is a natural at Pass Pro, which is what you need in this league to play L OT. The Bills have a nice OT in Jason Peters, but Clady is hands down better than the rest of the bunch. This is definitely a value pick up for a team that needs to still build around keeping Trent Edwards upright and allowing Marshawn Lynch to eat up yardage. To me Clady has more value than a WR like DeSean Jackson, who was my close second.


Rd2:41. Buffalo Bills - Manningham, Mario, WR Michigan

Mario Manningham is one of the more recognized WR in this draft because of his nice career at Michigan. Although I think he is a bit over rated, I still believe he is a solid prospect, especially in Round 2. The Bills could use more weapons at WR and Manningham has tremendous hands and can be a nice target.


Rd3- Buffalo Bills - Pressley, DeMario, DT NC State

The Bills would still like to add more bulk at DT for their rotation and Pressley fits that bill. A good value in round 3.



72. Buffalo Bills - Bennett, Martellus, TE Texas A&M

The TE group in Buffalo is decent but Bennett is a young prospect who can become a nice pass catching threat.

[Buffalo1]

like them all the the first two are the best

[jaymitch84]

Where does Clady play if the Bills draft him?

[FknGvna]

I like the second guy the best but Davis won't last that far so therefore, these guys blow. Manningham? ! ? ! ? !

ummm?

[TommyV26]

Being an Ohio State fan... I hate Mario Manningham... but if he were to play for the Bills, I think I would like the pick a lot.

[Patrick!]

Where does Clady play if the Bills draft him?

Absolutely nowhere, which is why that mock is the stupidest thing I've heard in a while. Also, if we draft a receiver under 6'0", I'll shoot myself. Manningham, Jackson, anybody, DO NOT WANT!

[phishhead220]

The guy who had us taking Clady clearly didn't watch any Bills games or read anything about the Bills going back to the last offseason. 25 million on Langston Walker is a sizable investment and Jason Peters is a Pro Bowler.

You are so right, after the combine all these mock draft guys will realize that Davis will be drafted somewhere between 15 and 25 in the 1st round.

[ksl66]

These guys are nuts, do they have any idea how much money the Bills have invested at DE, like they would add to that and take Gholston. Besides if he was the player avilable, I would deal down to the mid 20's and take a guy like Dan Connor and pick up an extra second and fourth round pick. Rivers is undersized and why the hell would the Bills need another tackle, where will he line up at H-Back?

I think round one is shaping up very nicely for the Bills to move down and get a OLB, Highsmith, Connors and Rivers are all very good weakside prospects and would represent a huge upgrade over Keith Ellison. I just don't see a huge separation between the three at this point in the draft process, so I am in favor of dealing down and adding picks.

[f8ta1ity54]

i really hope we dont take highsmith...we have enough undersized lbs

[LotteryPick]

These drafts are terrible.

The first one is a good draft, but I doubt the Bills take a DE with the money they paid Kelsay and Schobel (although we do need an upgrade). Taylor is a good fit at DT.

The second one has many flaws. Davis will not last that long and there are so many better OLBs then Rivers. IF we take one in round 1, and I don't believe we should, I'd rather have Connor or even Lehman.

Lastly, on the Manningham topic. I am a Michigan fan, so my views might be biased, but I believe that he is a strong receiver and would be a great 2nd round choice to pair with Evans. Height shouldn't be the be-all and end-all of deciding a WR. Having a big WR would help, but you can't pass on Mario, or a game-breaker like DeSean Jackson b/c they are not 6'4".

Also, where are the CBs in this draft? We really need one. Jenkins from USF in round 1?

[McD]

Oh brother.....I don't care how much is invested in our DE's...they dont put consistent pressure on the QB. We need someone that DC's game plan against, and STILL get's to the QB. Someone, who on 3rd and long, actually forces the QB to throw the ball way, get a sack, or forces a turnover. Hell, even if he gets double teamed, he eats another blocker, allowing someone else to get in there and be disruptive. Another (talented) DE and DT are needed badly here. LB and DB's can use some help too, but not as much as our D-line.

[FknGvna]

I'm telling you, our DEs are solid enough. When we get pressure up the middle so the QB doesn't step in the pocket is where you'll see progress. These guys are good. Throw Money at Corey Williams the way you did Tripplett.
