another clueless brother you and this poster need to attend some classes that the bills offer for wives of football fans.

try learning how things work in the NFL. these two kids have been here all of a month and maybe a dozen practices in shorts. they have no idea about the offense and are in the process of just getting down the terminology and lining up correctly. the veterans are always afforded the respect of taking the starting reps early on as in OTA's. when training camp opens then the real competition starts. they drafted woods and livitre to start and there is no doubt in the world that woods will be our RG this year. unless livitire fails miserably then that would be the only chance for either chambers or mckinney to start but IMO thats not going to happen. positions are not given in this league the are earned and wood and livitire will both have to compete and should have no problem beating out either chambers or mckinney. lets just say you are really jumping the gun here my friend. the last thing a team would do is insert a rookie in the starting lineup from day one even though they may know he will be their starter by day one.

just stop. this is their third year in DJ's defense and you make a comment that we are going to switch to a 3/4. come on man think a little thats ridiculous especially seeing that we dont have the personnel to run a 3/4. its all about continuity not change . if your changing anything on offense or defense its because what your doing is not working. continuity breeds confidence and success.

thank you buddy nix. obviously the bills namely nix and modrak think you are completely wrong seeing they had their pick of any DE in the draft except jackson and they choose Maybin. I'm sticking with their judgement seeing that they actually watch film of these players and do extensive scouting and actually watch every game tapeof every game they play in unlike you or any other of us message board GM's. by the way nix and modrak have been in this business of personnel for a combined 70 years enough said.

dont buy that BS. tom modrak 3 months ago in a vidio for buffalo bills .com when asked about bowen. "nice back up linebacker who can help us out on special teams" that sure as hell does not sound like a ringing endorsement for the kid and modrak did draft him. anyone who thinks he has a legitimate shot to be our starting OLB is dreaming.

total speculation and i have espn insider. it was generated from the chicago tribune yesterday after NE did not sign Pisa. all they base everything on is that he played for lovie and what a wonderful time he had visiting the bears. think about that if that was all true why is it 3 days after NE spurned Pias and he has yet to sign with his beloved bears. its not going to require any big negotiations its way to late for that. its down to money and who is going to give him the better deal the bills or the bears. as far as starting he has more competioion in chicago to start here he only would have to beat out ellison. i love how all these chicago writers have him signed sealed and delivered to chicago. the only problem is none of it is based in fact only their opinions.

the writer is a friggin moron. lynch out the door jackson starting. i dont know how guys get these jobs they write stories about teams they obviously know nothing about. the guy is a freaking joke.

first off i would hate to loose parish. that being said if we indeed are going to trade him i'm hoping he is a part of a deal that would bring brian waters to buffalo as our new LG. time will tell if Waters does not show up for mandatory Mini camp in KC next week then i think chances are very good that KC will reluctantly move him. IMO there is no way he is going to show up in KC next week. the only way IMO we can get Waters is via trade. If they cut him then there is no way in hell we will be able to sign him as he would be a very very hot commodity. unfortunately the team @ the top of the list for his services would be the dolphins who lost their guard to injury last week.

you are truly jumping the gun. the team we are really competing with are the bears. they wanted hood and lost him and are now focusing on signing Pisa. they are the team we have to be very scared of!

look i like JP but what he lacks cannot be taught. he simply does not have the inate ability to process information fast enough that he needs @ this level to be a successful QB. call it waht you want but its what the industry calls the "it" factor. either you have it or you dont and unfortunatly for JP and also the bills he does not poessess this skill. i wish him the best but i have been saying for months that his days in the league are over unless he wants to be a third string QB on some team which IMO he has no interest in.

it looks like he will sign with chicago its between buffalo and them. they reported this morning in the chacago tribune that it will now come down to who gives him the biggest contract. the bills have said they will not get into a bidding war for a 2 down LB.

as a season ticket holder of over 30 years i think ticket prices should be and will be increased when the team is sold. actually Ralph gets ripped a lot around here but the price of our ticket is a joke. go around the league and in most of the NFL cities you could not sit in the end zone for what we are paying to sit on the 50 yard line 28 rows up in the bowl. then Ralph gets ripped for not signing every big name free agent out there. if he raised the ticket price $20 on every ticket then maybe he would be able to compete better but then everyone would bitc-. go to NE or NY where parking a mile from the stadium is $50 bucks and tickets are 2 to 3 times as much as ours are and you will see how fortunate we are yet we constantly rip the guy. You cant have it both ways fellas.

he was not a fit in jacksonville's defense. buddy nix was very much responsible for him comming to buffalo. he was the one who drafted florance. everybody said it was a bad signing but SD wanted him back we were lucky to get him.

i dont know how you can worry about butler to RT. its his natural position and one he played his whole collage career @ and is more suited physically for.

you are absolutly clueless if you think there is any way in hell bell is ready to start anywhere on this team this year. you also should be comitted to even mention starting him @ LT,just ridiculously clueless comments.

you mean like he did 2 years ago when he single handedily turned a bills route into a NYG victory @ the Ralph no less. how anyone could diss Mitchell is beyond me?

he was making 2.5 million,is young and led the team in tackles and what do they do? they cut his as-. i smell a rat somewhere. even if they liked a rookie better @ under 3 millioon wouldnt you keep the guy around considering all of th above?

how about his home town team who has a bad LT thats where i think he's going.

agree completely. however the issue in cinci is IMO 2 fold. money and health. believe me if the bills could have drafted smith he would have been our starting LT. the problem in cinci is that they cant pay smith 10 million a year and jones 6.5 million a year. then there is the issue of jones health. however if he is healthy he would definatly be the best LT on the bills. if the bills could sign him to an incentive laden contract bringing him in would be ideal. if he can play he's our LT if he cant we cut him simple as that. that being said i still say he lands in arizona!

you make no sense at all. if jones was healthy how in the hell would that put butler or walker on the bench. thats like saying if we had signed peters walker and or butler would be sitting the bench. do you really think the bills brass wants to blow up the right side of their line? if you answer is yes your lost. before losing peters they wanted a new center and LG thats it. they were quite happy with their right side. they caused this mess by not signing peters. believe me they would much rather have walker as their RT and butler as their RG but now thats not an option.

ross tucker and randy cross both offensive linemen say walker is not a LT thats enough for me. can he hang in there and man the spot probably but that does not make it his natural position. unlike you its their contention that he is very stiff in the hips to play LT. we shall see. if that our plan i'm hoping he succeeds because trents life depends on it!

i believe that was the opinion of the cinci beat writer. however something is up. jones cancelled his visit to seattle. if you ask me he's heading to arizona because gandy sucks. if jones is anywhere near healthy arizona will have first crack @ him and that came right from his own mouth. he wants to play in his home town. why did he cancel his visit to seattle. marvez said it was because he wanted to check out other opportunities. if its not arizona then maybe its the bills or the lions but the lions really stink so why would he go there? if you ask me he's going to be a cardinal we shall see but thats my guess.

mitchell a hair above average get freaking real!

well i'm pretty sick of people assuming that because they have heard of a player or watched a few of his games that they know more about the player than a personnel guy with the credentials of a Buddy Nix. the guy didnt last almost 40 years in this league because he cant evaluate talent. want proof just look @ the chargers because it was him not smith as everyone thought who made those picks.
