Jarius Byrd had 22 INT's and 3 Sacks with Buffalo from 2009-20013 Is it the respective teams scouting departments fault they didnt live up to their "Proven Resume's?" |

it appears we have problems when we sign the splash guys like Byrd and Browner. I'd like to return to filling holes with the less expensive 2nd tier guys. We had a lot of success doing that |

Treadwell will start and have an impact - immediately... |

So, we may have to look at next tier guys; point is, we do not have to throw the entire draft at the defense... |
It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

I want to fix the defense first. But at the same time a WR could help close out games. Of course a great defense wins Championships and we desperately need to fix our shoddy defensive line.

With our offense, even a mediocre defense will win championships.

Re: What exactly is the logic behind drafting Treadwell?
We're undersized on the defensive line...it's that simple...
Sign some massive types (NT Damon Harrison, DE Malik Jackson, DE Cedric Thornton, DE Jarvis Jenkins) and clog that middle, collapse the pocket... We've got edge rushers already on the roster, we've just got to scheme correctly... |

Good politicians answer. Takes time and makes a point over an issue not relevant to the question.
