Rewind a couple of years, and you will remember people complaining about London Fletcher making tackles down field and how we needed an attacking LB like Poz....Our LBs will only look as good as the horses they have up front eating up blocks. I like Kyle Williams, but we need a hoss like Haloti Ngata to eat up more than 1 blocker.

They have no long term plan. Every year we hear about how they like the guys they picked up in FA or the draft they just had....while everyone else is left scratching their heads at the silly decisions they see the Bill's FO playing out. We've had 10 yrs of JP Losman-type decisions, hence the drought.

These posts crack me up...what is a guy supposed to do, block for the QB, and throw the ball to himself. Evans, Moulds, Owens, they all look average on this team....put him on a team with a QB and an O-line, and a few opportunities, and people would be making these posts. This team will only go as far as the O/D line takes them....and right now, that is nowhere

Everyone, I found this on the web and thought Bill's fans might like it. http://www.suddenurge2000.com/The%20Spiller!.mp3 Enjoy Link: http://www.suddenurg...load%20Page.htm

As I do every year, I scratch my head at least once...Hopefully this year the Bills FO is right about the O-line.

Easily would've been an A if the Bills grabbed a tackle...considering it is their second biggest need...second to some pass rushing. I cannot disagree with the grade of a C...simply on the premise that the FO shoulda addressed tackle.

OK...even if he's gone after round 2...still coulda used a tackle more than another DB.

The point is, they are throwing a lot of eggs in Bell's basket. If they draft a tackle instead of a DB (of which we already have starters in place), then you have more depth/competition/probability of getting the right guy. As for the staff being high on him, that means nothing. They've published articles on Bills.com on how they were high on Whittle too...

I never said I was....but, logic says if you have a glaring need, which I would argue the Bills do at tackle, you do things to increase the probability that you address that need. The Bills lost 60% of their starting O-line. They drafted a center/guard, and another guard. If they don't address their LT in FA, they are counting on either Bell or Walker for that position. I think that is risky....and you don't need to be a pro scout to figure that out.

He's completely unproven...and I don't get a good feeling when I hear the Bills FO saying they are high on somebody because____(fill in the blank). We hear it every year on guys like Dockery, whittle, Robert Royal, Tim Anderson, etc....only to see them fall by the wayside. It's pretty risky taking an already thinned out O-line and not getting a tackle, in a draft that had a lot of them to offer.

Here's why the glut of DBs DOESN't make sense: 1. They will not help protect our QB...as we are retooling 60% of our oline. 2. They will not help the piss poor pass rush...Maybin will only do so much 3. We passed on some pretty talented rushers and tackles with both our 2nd round picks.

This horse has been beat, but I'm going to take another whack: What the heck were the Bills thinking?...3 good tackles went off the board AFTER the Bill's 2nd 2nd-round pick. Loadholt, Beatty, and Vollmer.....and don't tell me Demetrius Bell is the answer...because that joke will get old when TE gets hurt coming out the gate against the Patriots. Every year, I tell myself the Bill's front office might know something I don't (or the draftniks for that matter), but every year its the same 'ol same 'ol. Examples where I've been left shaking my head in the past, but gave the Bills the benefit of the doubt are: John McCargo, JP Losman, and an injured Willis McGahee. Jarius Byrd would've been there later, and is a DB for that matter... These DBs aren't going to giv TE any more time and definitely aren't going to make our total lack of pass rush any better. It would be nice to see a draft that doesn't look like the Bills are trying to outthink everybody, but rather simply looks solid on paper.

LOL! Who needs any other form of entertainment when you have this stuff...

And THAT's the bottom line...wins and losses. If the Bills have a good draft, I could care less about what JP does in Philly. This, hopefully, will translate into the W/L column.

Glass half full point of view on the Peters trade: OBD flipped an undrafted dude for a first rounder and 2 extra picks...It was their way of buying low and selling high. Imagine if Peters does bad again this year and his value goes way down. I didn't want to see him leave, but I think this should work out for all involved. I also think the Bills should try and get more value out of their 11th pick...trade down, not up, and get into the 20's. You improve your draft chances better with the more picks you have, not how high you pick.
