The Bills by a mile. This is year 14. of the slowest, soul sucking, no progress rebuild in the NFL and I don't think I'm going out a limb by saying it will be year 15 next year. Think of some kindergartener first discovering the Bills and pro football around 2000. That kid is now in college without ever having seen a playoff game. We're working on a 2nd generation to whom a Bills playoff game is something akin to folklore.

If this was about not wasting money on receivers then Brad Smith should be gone. He had 240 yards receiving in 2011 and 152 in 2012. Thats street FA production numbers. But were paying him what 3 million for that. And genius Nix signed the KO return specialist in time for the KO rule change. Again Easley stats in the NFL are 0-0-0, not sure what "flashes" he's shown unless your talking about the second half of some preseason game.

I agree almost 100% IMHO we go either Patterson or Allen at WR in rd 1.

Mourn on the Kolb.

What scares me---same clowns drafting. WR corp is extremely thin. QBs are mediocre, thats their ceiling. Injuries at LB or safety. Defenses stacking the box, focusing on stopping the run and daring us to throw. Not really inspired about anything though I do agree the D has to be better, Wanny did one of the worst jobs of coaching a unit in this franchise's history. I would say the Vegas line on our over/under wins for 2013 will be about 5 which sounds right and we will enter year 15 of Bills groundhog day in 14. My Steeler buddies down here in PA will say "god your Bills suck", and I'll say yup just like I always do.

Minus---has a concussion history in league more and more concerned about them.

So with less receivers were better off? And what gives you hope in Marcus Easley who has never caught a pass in his career? Top to bottom this is probably the weakest receiver corps in the NFL.

Put me down for week 6 in the concussion pool.

In Nix we bust

BIlls 2013---Lets get this over with.

I dont think anything goes to the top judging by the Millenium of Misery, I would take the board concensus over most decisions made by our front office.

I honestly dont know how anyone can defend Nix anymore but then again you have core group on here who will defend anything the Bills do. We had people who would vehemently defend Modrak, Ralph, Chan, Levy as GM and on and on. He hasn't improved this team one, I repeat not one game in the W-L record. Aren't we as fans entitled to expect some results after his 3 tenure? 1. He crapped the bed on the Merriman signing, blew what over 10 million on this bust who went on IR the first year during one of his first practices. Please spare me the "he tried", he way overpayed for a guy who was clearly done. 2. He way overpayed on extending Kelsay. Kelsay a guy who had a career high of 5.5 sacks in a season. Thats not a good player, that's journeyman. Kelsay a leader? exactly what did he ever lead this defense to? 3. Chan Gailey was as unispired coaching hire as Jauron was. 4. Hes used 50% of his 1st and 2nd round picks on RBs and CBs, that sound familiar these last 13 years? 5. His picks are into the podium before any team would have a chance to move up and offer picks. Listening to offers is part of your job as GM IMHO. 6. Enough people have mentioned the Williams and Troup picks especially when local boy Gronk was there and we needed a TE. For all the talk about its hard to get some players to come to Buffalo, you know who might want to play here? A guy like Gronk who was borned and raised here, you can throw in Williams from Tampa in that discussion who went in the middle rounds. It would of been nice to see a pick smile when we picked them instead of the disappointment Spiller and Gilmore displayed. 7. From the 4-3, to the 3-4 back to the 4-3 and now in year 4 we're going to be a hybrid. Building defenses that are not just bad, but historically bad, and historically bad by Buffalo Bills standards, that a high bar. 8. Overpayed for Anderson, we have over 10 million in dead money from Fitz's contract the next 2 years. Hmmm maybe that money could of been used to extend Levitre and Byrd. Byrd still isnt locked up to any deal, just franchised, what happens if he has another good year, doesn't the price go up and isnt there a limit on how many times you can franchise the same guy? 9. A previous poster mentioned Aaron Williams and a lot of people thought he wasnt a corner and better suited to safety. My question is this; SS and FS are not the same position and require different talents. If Williams isnt a SS, and is better suited to FS we wasted a 2nd on a guy who isnt a corner and will be backing up one of our stronger positions in Byrd. 10. One 7th rounder on a QB? Hell the Pats have Brady and used a 3rd on Mallett. 11. Timing our QB need for the weakest QB class in years---genius. Going into year 4 this team seems to be going backwards and doesnt seem to have a ton of cap room. We have a group of receivers who are probably from top to bottom among the worst in the league. Our QBs regardless of the draft, will be viewed as one of the weakest in the league. Our TEs are Chandler and a couple of guys most hardcore NFL fans in other cities couldnt even name. The LBs nothing special, the corners not exactly all-pros, if Anderson doesnt work we have no blindside DE. Buddy has been given more than a fair opportunity, there is no reason to keep him out of loyalty, this is a results driven league. Either you produce or go. The only baby Nix has shown us is a deformed mutant.

Its an elevator scene from the TV show Ugly Betty.

i think i was just saying i dont Barkley at 8.

Somebody tell me this team isnt stupid enough to take the mediocre armed, injured, non-athletic Barkley at 8 to throw in the winds of Buffalo. My patience doesnt have a couple of more years to waste on Jimmy Clausen 2.0.

Now that was funny. I'll add.....lame duck Buddy Nix picking our QB of the future in one of the weakest QB classes. Good times.

If anyone thinks this team even sniffs the playoffs next year then they dont know football. The won/loss record under Nix is reality, we havent improved one game under his tenure, not one. It's a fact that cant be disputed. Yet I still see people posting that Buddy has done a decent job and I wonder do these people have any standards? While this team is not the worst in franchise history, this new century Bills are without a doubt the worst stretch of Bills football ever. This team will be picking top 5 next year as we inch closer and closer to 20 years without a playoff appearance.

With no action on FAs and 6 draft picks Im sure Buddy will have no problem finding 2 QBs, 2-3 WRs, 2 LBs, some OL, some CBs, backup DE.yeah we got the rest of the NFL right where we want em......Now if you'll excuse me, Im going to start drinking heavily.

Dadgummit, this only the start of year 4 of Buddys 20 year rebuild strategy. On a positive note, we're definetly in the running for Clowney in 2014.

Haven't the Steelers had one of the best defenses over that past decade. How many first round corners have the Steelers drafted over that time? Yes they have used a 1 on Polamalu, a SS. How many first round corners have the Steelers even started recently? Maybe defense is about stopping the run and pressuring the QB, things the Steelers excel at and what Bills haven't done well during the millenium of misery. How about the dream team Eagles and the money they spent on corners, what did that get them?

Hallelujah.

Yes a corner in the first round, its worked so well for the last 13 years.

Putting Buddy out to retirement.

As for this limosine liberal stuff.....this is from the Washington Post where the hospital denies they rented out a whole floor. They were housed in an executive suite, so you can get off her case for that BS. http://www.washingto...WwBoP_blog.html As for not liking some of her lyrics, are you kidding me? Some of the oldsters forget people like Johnny Cash sang about shooting a man in Reno just to watch him die, or Fats Domino was getting a thrill on blueberry hill. If some lyrics bother you, I guess Debbie Boone is your cup of tea.
