Kinda tells you something about all these NFL talking heads- - Purple Eagle
yeah
at the end of the day a true top 10 player with the first pick
a tackle that was projected by many to go mid first rd in the second rd
a speed raw wr for the third round
I think the bills did well
draft depth for the rest of the draft

The Bills suck. They didn't even draft a RB yet? WTF are they thinking?
Lets hope for Desean Jackson type not DHB - gerbe75pts
What were we thinking?!
This guy is a project, at best... Weak pick IMO...
Here's what "nfl.com" has to say...
GRADE
69.5
T.J. GRAHAM (WR)
SCHOOL: N.C. STATE
CONFERENCE: ACC
HEIGHT: 5' - 11"
WEIGHT: 188 LBS
ARM LENGTH: 32 3/4"
HAND SIZE: 9"
OVERVIEW:
Graham is undersized at receiver but has started sparingly throughout his career for North Carolina State. His value lies in his peed. He is still a developing route runner and can get knocked for being a "track guy" who is unreliable across the middle. Nevertheless, his 40-yard dash time will be important throughout pro days and the combine, and he could be selected as high as the third round.
COMBINE STATS
20 YARD SHUTTLE: 4.18 SECONDS
3 CONE DRILL: 6.77 SECONDS
40 YARD DASH: 4.35 SECONDS
BENCH PRESS: 8.0 REPS
BROAD JUMP: 120.0"
VERTICAL JUMP: 33.5"
DRAFTED BY
BUFFALO BILLS
ROUND: 3
PICK (OVERALL): 6 (69)
PICK ANALYSIS: Mayock's take: "I had him going in the seventh round. He can fly, though."
1st pick gilmore was expected to go 8-12
2nd pick glenn was expected to go mid to late first round, got him in the second rd
graham in the 3rd was a reach, but he has speed and there was a need there and if that is who they liked at that point in the draft to fill the wr hole, I am ok with it.
first 4th rd pick bradham was a potential mid 3rd rd pick
late 4th rd pick, brooks from lsu was a potential mid to early second rd pick
first 5th rd pick, saunders was a potential early 4th rd pick
second 5th rd pick, carder, walter had going to us with our first 5th rd pick
asper, taken in the 6th rd seemed to be in the 6th-7th rd slot
they filled the needs on the roster and most of all went with players from big schools
