seattle took a risk and it has paid off. they also took a $8.5 mil cap hit for him this year. so that trade turned into Chris Hairston, Tank Carder AND $8,000,000 to spend.

the play of Seattles LB's and SS really stood out.

Buffalo and Minnesota are in a league of their own at 0-4. would trade 0-4 for 2-5 any day.

#1- Budweiser - Hero's Welcome #2- Budweiser - Puppy Love #3- Dorito's - Time Machine #4- T Mobile - No Contract (Tebow) #5- Hyuandai - Sixth Sense #6- Radio Shack - Phone Call

if they were smart....hold prices the same. I expect a $5 per seat per game increase. STH price from $77 up to $82. a 6.5% increase.

Seattle could use a TE......and a RT that team is going to be good for a while.

stay and pick a QB at #4...... or if the guy you like is gone, give up the #26th (indy's for Richardson) for Cousins and pick best available player at #4.

why should EJ worry ?.....he's already been assured he's the starter. Buffalo Bills coach Doug Marrone informed quarterback EJ Manuel that he will remain the starter next season despite lingering questions about the rookie's durability and uneven development. http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/topic/165562-way-too-much-pasting-of-copyrighted-material-please-read/ http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/10216366/ej-manuel-told-buffalo-bills-coach-doug-marrone-be-starting-qb-next-season

you could upgrade 5 positions on this team.... and unless one of them is at QB.....we aren't making the playoffs.

looks like a daughter.....here is a recent Kelly family photo with jim, jill and his two daughters. http://www.huntershope.org/site/PageServer?pagename=aboutus here is the announcement ceremony http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-honors/0ap2000000321678/NFL-Honors-2014-Hall-of-Fame-class

who will "present" Andre at the HOF ceremony ??

guess Warren Sapp is eating his words......

congrats Andre !!!!!

the article I linked says the breakdown is as follows 17.5% Denver 17.5% Seattle 3.1% Giants (home team) 3.1% Jets (home team) 33.6% the 28 other teams get 1.2% each 25.2% the league 100% Total

when the very first sentence in the entire article is: "EJ Manuel asked the question, and I don't believe he enjoyed my answer." isn't Graham making this story about himself ?

how many DL coaches have 3 Pro Bowlers to work with........just 1.

a great hire.... meet your next DC if Schwartz gets a HC gig.

Denver & seattle get 17.5% each http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/eye-on-football/24421989/super-bowl-xlviii-broncos-seahawks-get-35-percent-of-tickets

the 29th ranked QB in the league just needs time...better to draft some weapons that he can't hit (sarcasm). we can draft a franchise QB in a couple of years (sarcasm).....when we pick first (mildly serious).

how bout a chicken wing eating contest ? 125-pound mother of four devours record number of 363 wings in 30 minutes, to win Philly's Wing Bowl http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-shutdown-corner/125-pound-mother-of-four-devours-record-number-of-wings-to-win-philly-s-wing-bowl-22-191245047.html

your contributions to this forum are much appreciated. you bring a more "informed" opinion......not always right (laffin)...but definitely more informed.

the bills have even more "leverage" let's say that in year 3 Byrd exercises his rights again to NOT sign his tender and not participate in OTA's and minicamp. let's say Byrd intends to sign his tender the week BEFORE the regular season starts, you know, so he doesn't miss any game checks. just prior to Byrd signing his tender. the Bills could have a change of heart (cough) and decide to RESCIND their franchise tag offer, thereby making Byrd an immediate UFA. maybe the bills had no trading partners. the only problem for Byrd is that most teams will have spent/allocated all their cap space and few if any teams will be in a position to pay him his big contract.

he's great value for the $8.3 mil tag.....if he plays all 16 games. for $8.3 mil at 11 games is like paying $12.0 mil for 16 games. I do think he will be cautious again (cough)....possibly up to the trading deadline which last year was between weeks 8 & 9. the bills have "leverage" too....they can tag him a third year at a 144% over $8.3 which would be $11.9 mil. $6.9 and $8.3 and $11.9 is $27.1 mil

the price for Tyrd just went up. this year the bills will need to offer $10 mil/yr for 5 years and $30 mil guaranteed for Parker to accept giving up UFA. last year it was $9 mil/yr for 5 years and $27 mil guaranteed. it's going to be deja vu all over again.
