Buffalo Rumblings McShay rips the bills

http://insider.espn.go.com/nfl/draft10/insider/news/story?id=4907951

Mcshay lists the four most common draft mistakes a team can make. He then says that the Colts(no surprise) the best team at balancing value with need. The worst is the Bills.

The Bills sit on the opposite side of this balancing act. They've consistently targeted need over value and failed miserably. From 2006 to 2008, the Bills reached for DT John McCargo, RB Marshawn Lynch and CB Leodis McKelvin. Not one of them was a starter by the end of this past season. That's a drafting disaster. Buffalo fans had best hope their team has learned its lesson as it debates whether to reach for QB Jimmy Clausen at No. 9. It's a position of need, for sure, but, personally, I see him as the No. 28 prospect in the draft. Buffalo would be better off taking a top offensive tackle, Oklahoma's Trent Williams or Rutgers' Anthony Davis. A QB like Colt McCoy or Tony Pike will be waiting for them later.

And if all else fails, they can try to trade with the Raiders.
