individual politicians get re-elected because they bring home the bacon (as in "pork") for the locals. since re-election is job one, there will never be any focus on fixing the big picture and the long term.

Probably use the satanic goathead - save some license fees since they can split them with the Sabres go Russ - way to promote mindless crap try re-doing Peters deal to improve the on-field product.

I do believe there are some 5' 8" CBs that will be available at our slot. Not sure how Dick can pass on another DB

Due to his knee injury and missing all of 2008, Ingram will be a steal in 2nd-3rd round. He can run the seam and has great athleticism.

can you say Mike Mamula effective NFL DEs weigh more than 240 lbs Effective NFL LBs weight more than 240 lbs

The NFLPA is too busy with inflating rookie salaries to worry about health related issues and playing conditions. They can't even support their own retired members

Russ - instead of wasting time on a message board defending your out of town clown, why don't you get the Peters deal done so we will have something positive to hang onto. The failure of the Bills in the draft is not just the specific players picked, but the total lack of understanding that winning teams build a dominant OL and front 7 thru the draft - not chasing high glitz RBs, WRs and DBs. Any player taken in the top 12 of the draft needs to be a gamebreaker - Lynch is too slow and dumb to ever amount to more than an average starter.

Bills gave them an extra #1 for Drew. since that time they have continued to trade one of their extra first rounder for a higher in the next draft. they typically don't draft 2 1st rounders in the same year. Last year they lost the extra pick due to cheating. It would be fitting for the Bills to get them back on track with an extra 1st rounder. -- Except it will be Brady who they trade and who will never play at a high level again for the Bills.

no way he played for the Bills and Bills don't take performance enhancing drugs -at least I haven't seen any enhanced performances in the last 10 years anyway

if your kid was out of line, then you'd deserve the ass whupping you'd get in return

that is impossible he's white and went to Linebacker U. he must be a good LB- why else would the Bills have overpaid with multiple picks to select this sloth like performer?

when they replace the clown show in the front office and spend premium picks on building a dominant OL and front 7 for a team dedicated to high character players - they sure have a lot of turds whose on field production does not outweight the character flaws.

not sure how he will be stuffing the run when they will have him dropping into coverage with Schoebel to surprise and confuse the defense no one would ever expect Big Al to be covering the deep middle

how about a bona fide OT than can backup Peters and push that lard Walker inside to G. Since the bills are jerking him on his contract, he will hold again and the Bills will have a huge hole at LT. If the Bills are stupdi enough to play hardball with their elite LT, they sure better put pieces in place to allow them to suffer the consequences when the plan blows up in their face.

call him Mike Mamula syndrome

you left out playing next to an overpaid, underachieving turd at LG

no you keep Peters as he is a Pro Bowl quality LT You draft a stud OL so you can get stud level production instead of the overpaid underperformance you get from Dockery and Walker at their bloated contracts. The Bills have ZERO quality backup OTs on the roster so a real LT offers insurance if Peters gets hurt and allows flexibility at other spots on the line. just say no to more DBs and small people

the more accurate conclusion is that teams that spend marquee money ($74 million)on severely overrated players (Dockery & Walker) come to really regret it

that would be the smart play

You can't be a great defense if you can't stop the run.

so how much money did you bet on the Cardinals to win? sounds like your observations came from a Bills game with JP at QB and not the Super Bowl where Warner put his team in position to win based on his performance

you don't waste the #11 pick on a conversion project - or you what the Jets got out of Ghoulston in 2008 - nada

TOO bad the union is run by the big agents and they will fight tooth and nail to keep those big rookie salaries (and big commissions) which drive up salaries for everyone else. the issues the players should be concerned about should include things that impact their health, like equipment advances, concussion after-effects, retirement funding, consistent use or non-use of HGH & performance enhancing drugs. either ban them and enforce it with blood tests or use them under team guidance - now the playing field is not level.

what do you mean- "hanging on " Dick has an 3 year extension with an owner who will refuse to eat any of that contract. Dick is essentially guaranteed his gig for 3 years unless Ralph croaks.

you highlight the total ineptness of OBD's ability to evaluate talent by asserting that Chambers provides similar production to Peters. Chambers does not have the athletism or the strength to handle elite pass rushers one-on-one. He needs to have a TE glued to his hip to not be a turnstyle, the same way that Walker does - which is why the offense becomes so limited when you have slugs playing the OTs. Peters got screwed because he was an undrafted free agent - which I guess was before your time. He did not get the big money a typical top pick gets, Like Hardy, to suck and sit on the bench. Pay the guy and do us all a favor and hire a real GM to handle the football side of the business
