Five days and counting
There was a few moments today where everyone in Buffalo was gripping on how they would handle saturday. As early reports had the Sabres playing in the afternoon as the draft was going on. Then there was a huge collective sigh as the National Hockey League decided to start games one and two on wednesday and friday.
Now, on to other things in the draft. First, do not expect the Bills to be taking running back Marshawn Lynch, or linebacker Patrick Willis.
Willis could be gone by the time the Bills pick. Rumour has it that the Lions will try and trade down. At the same time they are hoping that Patrick Willis will be gone. So, look for the Detroit Lions to trade down, and then take Willis.
Lynch is already showing signs of bad characterization. According to Pro Football Talk.com. Lynch was involved in a drive by shooting. Also, people are questioning his back.
So, it is starting to look like Poluszny could be the Bills guy at the 12th pick in the draft. Levy did narrow it down this past week to wide receiver, corner back, running back, and linebacker. Linebacker would be the sensible thing It is their biggest hole. Also, the level of talent drops off quick.
So, folks read up and keep one thing in mind when you are reading rumours. They are just that rumours, and nothing is sure until you hear Roger Goodell announce the players name.
