[QUOTE=Jack Straw;3531424]So the Bills won't draft an offensive tackle in the first round because Mike Williams busted a few years ago?

The Lions, using your logic, never would have drafted Matthew Stafford because of the Joey Harrington disaster.

it doesn't carry across front office regimes. the current buffalo front office has no ties to the Mike Williams debacle. Matt Millen was s-canned and then they drafted a QB. Guys for wahtever reason get gunshy

even Andy Reid, all mock drafts had him taking a DE, what did he do but trade for Tapp and sign him long term


and its not a hard and fast rule just a guideline or trend

i also think some GMs are more comfortable scouting certain positions than others... and they dont really rely on the scouts to make the decisions...
