So who is their second best? I sure didn't see him against the Bears.

He's a player. Should be seeing regular action in the nickel by next season. The question is, who do the Bills give away to find a spot for him? McGee?

Chicago's first team OL played the entire first half.

Based on this first game, the Bills would've been better keeping Hangartner at center and Wood at guard.

These kinds of things really make you question the credibility of the comments.

Thats BS. If you don't think that Lee Evans can produce more in the next two or three years than even one of those players then you are crazy.

It seems like you're saying that none of these players can be cut because they are all projected to be great receivers. Unless that's the case then keep one or two of them AND Evans and cut the another guy.

So they think all these guys- Parrish, Easley, Jones, Nelson and Roosevelt will eventually become better than Lee Evans? Not likely.

How exactly could it pay off? Do we hope that the Bills strike gold with that 4th round pick? Do you want to see a list of their 4th round picks over the last few years? Just not sure what they were trying to accomplish here.

Parrish will spend half the season injured, as usual. If anything HE should've been the one to be traded although I doubt that the Bills would've received more than a 6th or 7th round pick for him.

Turning draft picks into quality football players is how a team improves, not vice versa. This is a setback. Maybe if the Bills are lucky they can parlay that 4th round pick into a player that becomes good as Evans three or four years from now...

It'll be close. I'll bet they're listing our OT depth on their websites and laughing like we are at their RBs. It's nice to have lots of good receivers but if your QB is lying on his back...

Maybin will get another shot after he is cut from the Bills. I suspect a 4-3 team will bring him in to see if he can play OLB. He has the physical tools to do that.

Me too. I doubt that Roosevelt would clear waivers to make it back to the practice squad. If the Bills think he has a future then I'd dump Parrish. Not the big, physical receiver that the current staff is looking for; frequently injured; I think that Donald Jones will replace him in the passing game within one more year and the Bills have numerous options to replace him on special team. As you mention, they may even be able to get a draft pick for him.

The problem is that it's tough to know if this is because the Bills DL is strong or because the OL is weak.

I see practice squad as well. This is the first time I've heard his name in any training camp report so it doesn't seem that he's exactly tearing it up out there. The four ILBs (barring injury) will probably be Davis, Barnett, Sheppard and Moats. Since Torbor can play both inside and out he has a leg up over White if the Bills keep 9 which I think it probable.

He'd probably struggle against him too.

Because Faulk was better than Thomas. This too, although those Rams teams had some other pretty strong players as well. I don't think that all of the above are HOF players/coaches (IMO).

I'm sure that he'll do well against Peppers.

This was and is my take as well. Strangely enough, Wilson though Marv was too old to coach again. Frankly, based on what happened with Jauron, Wilson would've been better off hiring Marv as the coach.

I'm sure he means that they are working out the terms for his release. At least I hope.

"Oakland also filled their hole at quarterback, signing Trent Edwards. In Edwards’ return to the Bay Area, he’ll compete with Kyle Boller to back up Jason Campbell." I guess the days of quality backups are long gone...

I don't know why they're wasting their time signing high profile free agents. Everyone on TSW knows that you can't get better this way.

So he can't beat Kelsay out at OLB???

Sounds like another case of sour grapes to me. Good thing that the Bills lucked out by not signing anybody given how everyone available stunk.
