The article is very cryptic and somewhat odd. The only rational reason the Bills have for passing on a LT at 9 is because they think that the top LTs will be off of the board by then (which I agree with - Okung, Bulaga and Williams will be gone). If any of those three are there and the Bills pass, then they truly, truly deserve the hell that is coming to them when the games start.
What if they believe that Bulaga or Trent Williams are only very good RTs but not LTs?

The funny thing is CJ Spiller got a college degree in 3.5 years!

First, who is Matt Williamson? A failed scout who works for ESPN.com, he would work for Buffalo or Oakland in a second.
He was a scout for one season with Cleveland and contributed to this spectacular draft-
1) Braylon Edwards
2) Brodney Pool
3) Charlie Frye
4) Antonio Perkins
5) David McMillan
6) Nick Speegle
6) Andrew Hoffman
7) Jon Dunn

Especially, historically, for wide receivers. Didn't Tuna trade for Keyshawn?
Bill Parcells coached/GM'ed teams have won as many playoff games as the Bills have since 1999.
-
dude- the bills got RODNEY FRIGGIN FERGUSON! what more do u want?
Actually they got Andra Davis and Dwan Edwards-two good 3-4 players who are not locker room cancers, who they didn't have to give up any draft picks for, who have never been suspended, and who weren't made the NFL's highest paid players at their respective positions.

Or in Holmes case a 5th.
I wouldn't have minded a trade for Holmes but all this panic and despair over the Dolphins trading for Brandon Marshall is just over the top.
-
Winner, winner, chicken dinner.
And in the defense of T.O. was a high character guy last year with no QB. :-)
Which is exactly why you don't trade 2 second round picks for a WR if you're the Bills.
-
Give up 2 2nd round picks during a rebuilding process for a talented, pain in the ass WR who the Bills would have to make the highest paid WR in the league, while keeping their fingers crossed that the money doesn't make him an even bigger !@#$? I'll pass.
-
Interesting. I am not one of those who hates Lynch (the player), so I hoping the Bills don't unload him, just for the sake of unloading him. That said, I doubt they could get a 2nd round pick for him, especially not in the top half of the second round. There are too many risks associated with him. I wonder what else the Seahawks have, that we could use?
The Seahawks actually have the 28th pick of the second round from the Charlie Whitehurst trade.

Hey I'm waiting...if they get nine wins or more next season I'll jump right onto their bandwagon. Less than that I'll join the crowd with the tar and feathers and the ride out of town for yet another bad move in picking people to head up this sorry organization. I'd rather have LT at 3.3 ypc backing up Jackson than Lynch. I'd rather have Holmes as a receiver than Hardy, and Cromartie filled a need for the Jets... but then we don't have any needs so we might as well sit on our hands....I'm going to be amazed to see how they get nine or more wins next year but more power to the bills front office.
You must have loved the Donahoe era then, right?

Its wonderful to know that the existing crew knows how you"can't" build a winning team. I think we might have done better to hire folks who know how you "can" build one.
Can you at least wait until the Nix/Gailey Bills play a single game before you conclude they don't know how to build a winning team? From the way you're carrying on you'd think they added Adrian Peterson, Andre Johnson, and Nnamdi Asomugha and not a 31 year old RB who averaged 3.3 YPC last year, a CB who hasn't done squat since 2007, and a talented yet troubled WR who is one strike away from a massive suspension.
-
its more than getting holmes for a fifth..its getting sanchez, and a philosophy of constantly getting better under the new regime. Tomlinshon, Cromartie and Holmes and then going into the draft. This is a team that isn't going to sit on its hands in any facet of the personnel game.
How is exchanging Thomas Jones for L. Tomlinson an upgrade?
-
not really...more like woody johnson, mike tannebaum and coach Ryan...but what do they know..they only made it to the AFC championship game.
And if Cincy and Indy had played those last two games to win Woody Johnson, Mike Tannebaum, and Rex Ryan wouldn't look like such geniuses would they?
-
He probably meant Brandon Marshall.
Maybe he meant Ray Edwards of the Vikings?
-
Is this what you thought when the Raiders gave Moss away for a 4th?
Moss had never been suspended and wasn't in the NFL substance abuse program at the time. Not to mention that Holmes is just good WR while Randy Moss is potentially the greatest WR in the history of the NFL.
-
I think his off-field problems are way overblown. He got busted for having pot in his car. He was accused of throwing a glass at someone at a night club, and it turned out that he was wrongly accused. I don't know if the expected suspension is based on something new--but his priors have been pretty tame by NFL standards.
But one more "overblown off-field problem" and he's facing an even longer suspension. The fact is that the team that knew him the best was unconvinced that he'll be able to stay out of trouble in the future.

Reading the comments after that article ...makes me so sad for the state of things for this franchise:
"Clausen?? What a thought. The Bills have problems. As much as I would like to give Nixon and Gailey the benefit of doubt in trying to turn this around. It seems some thing is not right in the organzation. The Bills could have went after McNabb in a trade. Could have signed Delhomme, or Bulgar as free agents. Any of which would have been an upgrade to the QB spot. The Ravens have a tackle that they could have traded for. Flozell Adams is a free agent. A proven All Pro OT and they do not go after him. They could trade a number 2 pick and some thing else to get Edwards from the Broncos. With all that said, they could have turned around the offense and still have the #9 pick in the draft. All these possibilities and yet nothing is being done. The Bills need a tackle. That is the first need. It will be another losing season for the Bills unless a major move is made. "
Who is Edwards from the Broncos?

lynch to balt for gaither...dammit i just woke up
Can only dream.
I wonder what kind of a background check any team trading for Lynch would conduct prior to agreeing to any deal?
-
Sorry guys. Don't mean 2 make U suffer. I have 2 wait. But I'll reveal the RB & the team that wants him soon. Don't expect it 2 be shocking.
-
We are hearing Lynch to the Lions.
Stay tuned...
Really?
-
The only hints he gives are that it's not Marion Barber and the two teams are not in the same division.

I personally think Marshawn would fetch better trade compensation than people on this board seem to think. Prior to last season, the guy was putting up pro-bowl numbers with an atrocious offensive line and absolutely NO passing game. Imagine what he would do behind an offensive line like the San Diego Super-Chargers have. His character issues aside...the guy's an offensive coordinator's wet dream. I don't think a team would be willing to give up a low 2nd for him, but I could see a later 2nd or 3rd round pick happening.
I hate to say it, but it's time to move on from the beast mode era. Get what we can for him and then draft a "change of pace" running back to compliment Jackson.
The Chargers offensive line is good at pass blocking but at least last year was notoriously bad at run blocking.

But you have to wonder whether the Bills are willing to pay a RT "LT money" the 9th pick would command.
