What a stupid pick. RBs are a dine a dozen these days. We needed a lineman or a linebacker. Sigh. Going to be another long year...
Update: Jerry Sullivan agrees with me:
You do need big plays to be a playoff team in today's NFL. But if there's one thing we've learned since the millennium began, it's that small, skilled football players are only useful if you surround them with big guys who wear down the opposing team.
That's why I expected the Bills to go with a defensive player. They're going to a 3-4 defense, and they need athletes. They haven't added an impact player to their defensive front seven with a first-round pick since taking Shane Conlan in 1987.

I'd love to write something pithy for the big day, but I've got limited time: I'm working furiously to get my stuff done before jetting early for a wedding in Boston tonight. Perhaps this weekend?
