If you remember him "catching pretty much everything thrown at him", then you have very selective memory. Easely did in fact drop some very catchable balls in preseason last year. He made a couple of nice catches, but also had some drops that hit him right in the hands that really made you scratch your head.
And while I don't have video to back me up, what reddog said was accurate regarding Easley dropping some. So it's not just you and him talking...
I'll eat my crow now ... I was actually at the Denver preseason game like I stated earlier and chose to have selective memory. But you're very much correct about him not catching everything
just go to the 50 second marker in the link below and you'll see that Fitzpatrick got picked because it went right thru his hands.

Most people are thinking Edwards (as well as I am), but the fact of the matter is so far Edwards was lining up next to Marcell first while Kyle was out in camp. I have a feeling the coaching staff really like Edwards (especially Wannstedt with his comments about his quick feet) because the like lighter quicker fast DT's as opposed to the big plugger types

He didn't, it was added later.
HELL NO it wasn't I put it in there from the get go knowing how people feel about VR ... just your facts straight

I know, I know I'm going to take heat for this but there was an interesting article on the BleacherReport about Shawne Merriman and the BillS Defense for the upcoming year.
I like how they have the emphasis on the other important cogs on the line and say he's just a nice piece to have. To me Kyle Williams finally being 100% means more then anything else. Between him and Marcell controlling the middle while Mario maintains the left I don't think it matter whether him, Anderson, or Kelsay mans the otherside.
Thoughts, and flail away

I think I must have a differ perception from others. My recollection is he was hurt early in the preaseason his first year in the league. Then last year when there was basically no training camp and OTAs he had 2 decent preseason games. I happened to be at the Denver game because my brother lives there and he did a good job of separating and made the catches that he could. Then next was the Jacksonville game in which he also looked very good where he was 5/51 yds and a TD. Unfortunately after that he was shutdown with the heart ailment.
To me, from the limited times that I seen him, he's big,fast and runs sharp routes. I don't recall him having stone hands, too be honest I seen Stevie drop a helavu lot of easy catches and we know just how good he is.

I hope your Matio Williams report is a bit more factual then your Colston signing with the Bills tomorrow report because Colston just resigned with Saints for 5 years
-
Metz is saying Colston inks w/ the Bills tom'w. You heard it here.
ESPN just reported that Colston resigned with the Saints for a 5 year deal.

If the draft truly falls where it does, I could see the Bills trading out of their spot at 10 with Cincinnati for their first and second round picks. That way Cincy would have still have 2 number ones and we we have an extra 2nd. Then we could get one of the Offensive Tackles that fall down to that 17th pick and with the two seconds we can pick up a a Defensive End and a Wide Receiver

According to WGR55 as per the Buffalo Bills front office as part of the agreement between the Bills and the Rogers Center all the regular games are considered guaranteed sellouts so they will never be blacked out.

One the things I loved about the first few games was our ability to convert 3rd downs and keep drives alive. The first half against the Bengals saw a troubling trend of taking deep shots on 3rd down, even with 3rd & 3 or 3rd & 4, and with Fitz's much-discussed accuracy issues, these were drive killers. Four of our first five drives ended this way, as follows:
1ST QUARTER
3-4-BUF 12 (9:11) (Shotgun) 14-R.Fitzpatrick pass incomplete deep right to 22-F.Jackson.
3-4-BUF 20 (7:21) (Shotgun) 14-R.Fitzpatrick pass incomplete deep left to 16-B.Smith (22-N.Clements).
2ND QUARTER
3-3-CIN 24 (13:42) (Shotgun) 14-R.Fitzpatrick pass incomplete deep right to 16-B.Smith.
3-6-BUF 39 (10:59) (Shotgun) 14-R.Fitzpatrick pass incomplete deep right to 19-D.Jones.
Seems like Gailey may have fallen in love with the fades and fly patterns which brought some success over the first three weeks... but IIRC, in the first three games, those were usually called on first and second down, opting for higher-percentage plays on 3rd down.
At least this didn't continue in the second half. I just feel like we could have put our shoes on the Bengals throats a little more in the first half if we had used better ball-control offense on 3rd down.
+1000000
I was complaining throughout the game. Need 5-6 yds and try a pass for 20-30. Not sure who was to blame, was it the play calling or was Fitz starting to get big for his britches. I hope they go back to what got them to 3-0.

Don't think Ponder Dalton will perform as well as Campbell did.
Fixed and agree

Here's we he wrote::
Buffalo Bills
Power Rankings slot: 6
Win projection average: 9.5
Super Bowl odds: 40-1
Before you cry foul, remember it was in this space that justice was demanded when the Bills entered the rankings at lowly No. 27 two weeks ago. But geez, we asked for a bit part, not a directing credit. The Bills belong on merits -- two teams can say the Bills have served up their one loss -- but Vegas is extremely skeptical, with 19 teams maintaining as good or better Super Bowl odds. In two home games, Buffalo has allowed a whopping 949 yards. That said, the win projection total is up to No. 8, meaning the Bills' market is growing more, well, bullish. And really, when was the last time we called the Bills overrated? Quitting the habit of going down by a couple of scores at the coin flip in every game also might inspire more confidence.
More fitting rank: 9
Rising or falling: The Bills should be road faves this week at Cincy. Then they get struggling Philly at home. Rising.

This is too high. They may get there in time but it is too soon to put them at #2.
I agree that it is too high. When you go to NFL.com they have twelve different "experts" with their rankings. Lowest was #8, Highest was #3, averaged out they were 5.5 which I think is pretty accurate 5 or 6 is where I'd put them. I was just trying to point out these were the same clowns at BleacherReport that at the beginning of the year had us ranked 32nd in the league and a sure-fire team to win the Andrew Luck sweepstakes.

I can't believe it but finally someone gives the Bills the respect they deserve for how the been playing this year. Let's keep it rolling BOYS !!!!!
-
You're right Kyle Williams has sole rights to that name there could possibly be no one else named that playing in the NFL ......
-
Actually the Bills are ranked #11 by PFT ...
-
Buster Martin ?
It was Craig "Buster" Davis that Nix drafted not Kuvel Martin
-
You can looked at it anyway you want ... like Marv used to say "stats are stats". This win was pretty dominating. Using your same scenario, then take away the 3 biggest runs then they are only giving up 3.2 per carry.
GO BILLS ... Crush the RAIDERS !!!!

I watch the last preseason game live on blogsport.com even though it was blacked out
-
I'd give no more then a 4th rounder either. While you say we might not be in the Luck sweepstakes if you truly thought he was the next coming of Peyton Manning, then you give up the farm for him. Even if it cost you 2 1st's, a 2nd, and a 3rd

I'm not talking about calling the guy for the post game interview or something. I am talking about the call of the game. The broadcast itself. Sorry for any confusion there.
Van Miller has been retired for years now, John Murphy is the official broadcaster on the radio for the Bills.

Just perusing the Web and found this interesting Blurb:
"Losers:
Buffalo Bills – Throughout the 2010 season, two NFL franchises teetered on the brink of finally turning the proverbial corner: the Lions and the Bills. But what both teams need to do this offseason is cement their future with the right moves to put them over the top. For the Bills, things aren’t quite going according to plan.
Specifically the “loser” mentality revolves around one key player: linebacker Paul Posluszny. The captain of the defensive middle is now gone, leaving the Bills with a gaping hole in the middle of an already weak position. Adding Aaron Wilson and Marcel Dareus is great, but there have to be some playmakers in the middle, especially experienced ones, and the Bills lost the one player they couldn’t afford to."
