What's Buffalo's QB situation? Losman, Holcomb and ...who else?

I voted for Ngata, but if those are the QBs that represent the QBoF for them, I think the pick could be Cutler.

As for why I went with Ngata, I think Buffalo's defense was at it's best when the DTs were the stength of the team. I don't think the organizxation has forgetten that.

Toughest one yet.

I'm gonna say Huff. After losing Milloy and franchising Clements....I'm gonna say they look to retool the secondary.

Could make an argument for Ngata.....and Justice, but he'd be a reach at #8 IMO. They could trade.

Why is Greenway on here and not Sims? I've seen a couple of draft rankings that have Greenway in the late teens to early twenties and Sims in the early teens. Their respective workouts really affected both of their draft status (in opposite ways).

I would vote for Bunkley. He is sky rocketing up draft boards. They just signed Larry Triplett who is a space eater, Bunkley would compliment him well.

Tripplet is not a space eater. He is a 295 LB 1 gap DT.

I will add Sims to future picks. I thought about adding him, but I already had 8 choices for this pick.

I will let this one go a bit longer, but it looks like Ngata will be selected here.

Given that news conferences out of Buffalo these days are like scenes from "grumpy old men" who knows what senility will cause Levy and Ralph Wilson to do at #8.

"Ooh, is it Monday?"
