Something like that. As much as I hate to say it, McKelvin really is the second best option for an outside corner that we have. We took no one for the position during the draft, two of our brighter prospects (Brooks and Robey) seem ideally suited to be used in nickel and dime packages. We are dangerously thin at the position.

I'm going to miss these once camp closes. After the preseason game this weekend we're back to idle speculation.

Finally! Hopefully this is enough to get him back up and ready for Week One!!!

Well, we have the cap space for it.

Huh...you know, before camp I would have said no. But with Rodgers, McKelvin and Butler all being big question marks and Robey and Brooks looking exclusively like slot players I think the Bills should give him a call.

I came on to remind people that we did the exact same thing last year with Wanny's defense. That it is utterly premature to lionize this group before they prove themselves. And then I saw this: That is just too perfect.

I hope you're right about that. I'm also overwhelmed at the number of times the word "Minor" was used, and the coaching staff clearly doesn't seem pressured to start him in any more preseason. While I think we really ought to see how Kolb handles things this week, unless he really redeems himself after struggling with the Viking's defense, I don't see him winning the starting job outright. He might look good enough to handle things week 1, and if so I wouldn't be worried if Manuel really does need an extra week or two in order to be safe, but I do think that based on the first two PS games and what we've seen in practice, EJ is our guy.

I learned my lesson from last time. No more hoping for Pats* to be injured Week 1. That said, I don't know his absence would be as devastating as we were predicting back when he first heard word about Hernandez. After the way our own rookies are looking, I'm not ruling on anything quite yet,

You know, I didn't see much, but what I did, I would have to agree with you. I came in late (last quarter) and Barkley and whoever the 4th stringer was looked like they were barely moving. I would love to see the total snap count, because even Tuel was running it quicker, and without any delay of game penalties. Chip Kelly is being praised for putting up 36 points in two games, while the Bills offense put up 30 in one, not counting the special teams play. I still would hold off to see if this gets repeated, but I seriously think that the Bills are running a faster offense.

Living In Philly right now. everyone makes a big deal about the new chip kelly offense, but while fast, I think the Bills are faster.

Is it me, or does that sound nigh impossible to defend if you have a QB who has the arm to deliver it? TJ is best as a pure edge burner, and if you can let Goodwin cut up inside, where do you put the safeties? Both can outspeed most CB's and can you imagine Marquise working on a nickel corner?

Sure he does. Mario, bull rush Solder into Brady.

Seriously. I'm starting to wonder if he might have been a better pick than Woods. I remember immediately post draft that people (myself included) were questioning the pick because we already had Graham. Goodwin can be used so many ways, and I can already imagining special teams coordinators reaching for a bottle of Jack after seeing those kickoff returns. They better kick it out the back of the end zone every time.

I remember seeing an article saying that, post-draft, scouts declared that EJ was the best "by a wide margin"

I'd reverse that. SWEEP THE LEG!

Erik Frenz ‏@ErikFrenz3m According to @RochieWBZ, source says Brady will be fine, and that he'll be checked on again later tonight. Well, our luck couldn't be that good.

Strange, I didn't see one of those on the Bills record to denote "Ryan Fitzpatrick got flattened, broke multiple ribs, was in agony and lost all his confidence" back in 2011 Because injuries are part of the game. If Brady doesn't play week one, the game will be won and lost by the players on the field, not the guy riding pine. Seriously Cat, it's like we're running the same playbook on this one.

I'm not cheering for injuries. And I don't think I'll cheer about the injury itself. I'm just delighted by the possible ramifications.and paradigm shift of Brady being out Week 1...or possibly the season...or possibly ever.

He went back onto the field and threw thee passes before limping back over the sideline.

I want to see Brady moping on the sidelines as the Bills run up the score. I'm skeptical that it would be bad enough to have him miss week one...but I'll be keeping an eye out.

Dear Lions Fans, What was it like, going to the playoffs two years ago? Because honestly, we're starting to forget what that was like. Sincerely, Bills Fans

To be honest, I would take one QB who is most assuredly a starter over three who "could start" any day. But letting an honest competition choose the order? I'm ok with that.

I've been hearing multiple reports that Kolb looked great today. Huh...I'm putting this in the "Good problem to have" category.

I hope you mean Goodwin's because otherwise half the board is going to have a stroke.

I would like to see Tuel with the starters. That way, if he sucks, we get people to stop bitching and moaning about why we're holding him back. If he's good, we have trade bait for when Sanchez and Gabbert crash and burn. Hah! I was thinking the exact same thing!
