| I honestly didn't mind the Bills' draft. I suppose that when you look at it from a standpoint of "they could have gotten those guys later," that might be true... but it's not guaranteed, and there's no saying that proper trade-down offers were actually on the table. With regards to the Whitner pick, I've heard they tried to trade down a couple spots, but there just wasn't an offer there. The McCargo pick was odd, but if they really had him as their top DT, it makes sense.
If they can keep Clements around and develop all these rookies (Whitner, Simpson, Youboty), the Bills' secondary could be scary.
D, I was really surprised by the Kiwi pick... as I take it most Giants fans were. Does it signal that Strahan is just about done? Kiawanuka's only real issue was his motor, and I don't think sitting him for more than a year or two would do much good. On the bright side, he will have Strahan to learn from, and Kiwi certainly has the measurables to be a great all-around defensive end like Strahan.
Don't you guys already have a decent up-and-coming DE though? Justin Tuck? |
