Sweed at No. 11 to Buffalo

[South Austin]

One writer's current projection. I'm not a big Buffalo fan, but Don Banks thinks that Sweed's stock rose signficantly at the combine.

Damn it - He's supposed to go to Tennessee and play with Vince. Tell him to run a bit slower next time out.

Good for Limas if true. Although, doesn't Buffalo have a history of under-paying their players?

As long as Limas doesn't hire a rapper to be his agent he will be well paid.

All this means is that he's likely to go anywhere but Buffalo.

Seriously, what is the hit rate on any given mock draft? 3 out of 32 picks? What a pointless exercise.

Josey,

That was most likely the first tip that Ricky wasn't exactly right in all facets.

Rich,

I would like to see a comparison as to which are more accurate. Recruiting lists or draft lists. Not in terms of actual slotting for the draft, but who is a hit and who is a miss.

Walterfootball.com has him going to the Titans

" Tennessee Titans: Limas Sweed, WR, Texas
The Titans' receiving corps all year. Vince Young's drive to set up a potential game-winning field goal against the Colts was thwarted by his own teammate. Brandon Jones, Tennessee's No. 1 wide out, dropped an easy first down in field-goal territory. Against the Broncos on Monday night, it seemed like every single receiver had dozens of drops. And in the playoffs, Tennessee's first two plays resulted in drops. It's a shame Young's talent is going to waste with the garbage the Titans surrounded him with."

Is that why Ricky's first contract was so damn bad?

 

[BlueFire]

I'm a huge Bills fan (originally from Buffalo before I became a horn), and this is my dream scenario.

Buffalo's biggest need on offense is a big, tall red zone target. Sweed would fit it perfectly!

All Ricky ever wanted was to be liked and accepted. Rumors went around during the draft that whoever picked him would have a tough time because of the agent and he would want too much money. He wanted to prove everyone wrong and be liked. Unfortunately it didn't work out for him.

 

[TheContractor]

Good for Limus. He will be anywhere from 11 to mid 20s. He should be as high as the 1st WR drafted to the 3rd. He does have to show that he is healing well on pro day.

I thought he was a 1st day pick if he had left last year. Him coming back for his senior season after the hamstring injury though allowed him to show more impressively in the workouts now that he can run. Once UT Pro Timing day comes around and he catches I think he will be a solid 1st rounder that should be one of the top receivers in the draft.
