Draft Diary pt. 1

Well it's the most disappointing time of the year... first three hours

11:45 – Dedication to Virginia Tech with DeAngelo Hall, Michael Vick, and Bruce Smith. And of course overrated chants and boos spoil the moment. Dumb Fans in NYC can’t show respect. Must still be hurting after that loss to the Sabres last night.

12:12 – Here we go, Roger announces the draft is open. The pursuit of Brady Quinn Falling to #12 and the Bills begins. Let’s Pray!! The Oakland Raiders are on the clock. Personally they should take Calvin Johnson. Johnson is a freak athlete and JeMarcus Russell has Daunte Culpepper Written all over it. Bust, Bust, Bust!!!

12:22 – With the first pick in the 2007 NFL draft the Oakland raiders select JaMarcus Russell. BUST BUST BUST!!!! Take Johnson and Trade Moss for a decent QB. Put me in that offense and give me time with Johnson and I’m a pro-bowler.

12:30 – Calvin Johnson is tearing up. Matt Millen might be justified in this pick. However, Let’s see if they trade him to Tampa. I’d keep him and trade both Williams for Gaines Adams.

12:32 – With the second pick in the Draft, the Detroit Lions take Calvin Johnson. Fantastic. Don’t trade him!!! You know, I did this draft on my Madden Season, and he came out after year 2. So in year one I took Quinn and Johnson in year 2. Imagine that offense. Cleveland is on the clock. Take Peterson or Thomas. NOT QUINN!!!

12:37 – Shot of Quinn and his GF. She should propose at the draft. He’s gonna be rich in a matter of oh…. An hour. Her picture on her Miami(OH) soccer page is much better. But still, hotter than any GF I have. Just saying he could do better. Wait… did anyone pick up on the spurrier commercial for under armour where he said bye by saying click-clack. Love the old ball coach.

12:40 – Good for Joe Thomas. What better a show of character than skipping the draft to spend time with your dad. The shots of quinn are very similar to last year and lineart. Could be good for buffalo.

12:45 – With the third pick in the Draft, the Cleveland Browns select Joe Thomas. Keep falling to us Quinn. I love it. Quinn and Peterson left for the Bills.

12:56 – With the fourth pick, the Tampa Bucs take Gaines Adams. The hope is still alive. Solid pick. Do they trade or not???

1:00 – Arizona on the clock. Time to shower and brush my teeth. Countdown to Madden, 3 months, Countdown to Spidey, 5 Days.

1:05 – Arizona has been on the clock for 10 minutes and no flashback of the Dennis Green rant after the Bears game. And with the 5th pick, the Cardinals select Levi Brown. Early, but solid. Dejected looks of Quinn and Peterson.

1:19 – LaRon Landry to the Skins. I would not want to be a receiver going over that middle. Imagine either Taylor or Landry lining you up. Really? More shots of Peterson and Quinn and Quinn’s hot girlfriend.

1:30 – Peterson goes to the Vikings. Solid pick if he can stay healthy and I now fear Quinn will fall to the Dolphins and that worries me. I hate Miami. Eating some penne pasta. Very good.

1:38 – Lots of talk of Quinn and Cameron. It’s very disappointing if I have to watch him in a Dolphin uniform. I’m thinking Dan Marino type hate. But I do get to see him every year.

1:40 – Falcons take Jamal Anderson. That's right folks, he's back. The Dirty Bird lives on. If Quinn goes to Miami, Okoye is there for Buffalo. He’s younger than me. At least he won’t start complaining about our nightlife until 2009.

1:46 – Quick proposal à Trade Losman and the 12th pick to Miami for the 9th pick. Losman offers an immediate answer with success and potential. Quinn can have the Bills rebuilt around him since that’s what it appears Marv is doing. Please Marv, pull the trigger and fill those seats, I know I’ll buy my seasons back.

1:52 – Dolphins take Dan Marino, he’s back, yes!!! Quinn is going to the Bills. Ha Ha fooled you. The real pick is TED GINN JR. THIS IS THE WORST DECISION EVER. YOU JUST TOOK A KICK RETURNER WITH THE 9TH PICK IN THE DRAFT. Houston – Matt Schaubb just signed for $55 million. SF – Alex Smith, first player taken 2 years ago continuously improving. THE BRADY QUINN DREAM LIVES ON!!! I just peed my pants

2:05 – Houston takes Akoye, Quinn will be there at 12. OMG, I just took my first breath in 13 minutes. I have a headache from screaming. This could be phenomenal. Quinn is a stationary pocket passer, ala Jim Kelly.

2:19 – Before it happens. Bills will trade down for Lance Briggs and Chicago will take Quinn. Jauron and Levy have ties with the Bears who want to unload Briggs and get a solid QB and we need a LB.

2:21 – The 49ers select Patrick Willis and keep the Briggs deal alive. We better not take Revis with the 12th pick and pass on Quinn.

2:23 – Here it is. Bills on the clock.

2:30 – Nice having Bruce announce the pick. But too early. Oh well. I’m not buying my tickets back. Should have traded. That’s ridiculous. Way to early. I’m checking out. Character issues, over/under 8 weeks before he’s suspended and we take another warm weather player. Note this now: Marv will be fired by this time next year. Prediction: 4-12.

2:50 – Few picks gone and no Quinn. I could see him going at 23 to KC to replace Green and sit behind Huard for a few years. Few thoughts on Lynch, the dreaded “character issue” and durability concerns. That seems familiar doesn’t it. Man, who does that remind me of, oh yeah Willis Magahee. It’s such a good thing Marv loved Willis so much and couldn’t bear being with out him that he went and drafted the next him. 2 years before Lynch pisses off Marv or keeps getting hurt and is traded. Nice to see we are going to rebuild around a quarterback who has been inconsistent and a running back with “character issues” thrown into a city with bars open till 4. Not to mention both are from warm cities and have to get used to the Buffalo winter, one which didn’t show up till late last year and allowed JP to have close to ideal conditions.

Be back later. Someone is gonna get very lucky and get a poised quarterback with a HUGE chip on his shoulder. I am no longer a Buffalo Bills Fan. Marv has ruined it, Ralph is trying to unload and sell the team. GO SABRES
