Great! It looks like Byrd has Crowell's (lack of) brains when it comes to having surgery in a timely fashion.

We are seeing a lot of write ups on many of the Bills players and yet to date nothing really on Demetrius Bell.
Last I heard he has moved his weight from 305 to around 315 to 320. He was weak a year ago and Schobel took him to school. Bell learned fast but he could not stop Schobels Bull rush. This year I hear he is strong as a horse. The talent is there for him to be very good at Left tackle. Great feet for a big man. His inexperience is his biggest weakness right now.
I would love to see a writer talk about him like they do with the other players. I believe Bell may be the biggest sleeper on the team right now. He also may be one of the reasons the F.O. never picked in the draft or free agency a L.T.
They may already have a pretty good back up on the team now in Bell. Time will tell..... Can't wait for the exhibition games... can you?
Where did you hear the bolded part? I've read about his weight being what you mentioned, but nothing about his strength.
-
I missed that part. Hey, can't wait for another family reunion...Oh, wait, I'm out of bullets...
So the moral of the story is, dear ol' dad wasn't mad.
-
Jimmy Hardly. The previous Terrell Owens.
The same thing dear ol' dad did.
-
From what I've read, black is white.
Raise your hand if you've threatened your dad with a gun...
What did he get charged with again?
-
You ain't seen nothing yet.
Sigh.

The Bills should just sign their guy and not blame the rest of the league for their incompetence.
If the Bills priority was putting the best product on the field, Maybin would be signed.
instead they are worried about overpaying by a few dollars which would put them within $20 mil of the cap.
The rest of the league has signed their 1st round draft picks? Really? There was a sudden flurry of 25 1st round signings in, oh, the last minute?
And I thought the Buffalo Bills message board had some doozies!
-
Let he who has not threatened his father with a gun, cast the first stone.
Remove "father" and insert "sperm donor." From what I've read, that's about the extent of dear ol' dad's involvement with junior.
-
Maybe Jimmy Hardly's daddy should be mad.
For what? Being a screw-up, while junior is a pro football player?
-
Inflated ego? Peters turned out to be exactly right about the salary he could get. He was right on the money.
He would have gotten a similar deal from the Bills. But money doesn't bring you happiness. The Bills were his favorite team growing up and Buffalo's market/media are nothing like Philly's. The question is whether he was smart in taking (allegedly) more money to play where he'll be raked over the coals if he doesn't live up to his contract.
-
Putting "Irvin" and "blow" in the same sentence was funny.
-
So that's the Pats* and the Red Sox*.
Better vet the Bruins* & the Celts* too.
The Bruins? What have they done this decade? If they cheated, that's pretty freakin' sad.
No shocker on Manny and Papi. But I disagree that we shouldn't know the names. Let's hear them all.
-
Just what the Bills need. Another guy uses the tactic of holding out of training camp. Who is his agent, Eugene Parker?
-
Actually, an even better question is whether or not he has Peters' ability, right?
You don't need to be an athletic freak to succeed at LT. Look at Mike Gandy of the Cardinals, or even what's-his-name from the Steelers.
By the way, if leveraging yourself into an $11M+/year deal with a perennial NFC championship contender shows a lack of intelligence, then this board is laden with cro magnon men.Lots of stupid people get paid a lot of money, for whatever reason. That's no indicator of intelligence. And that was mostly orchestrated by his agent. I was more talking about his Wonderlic score, which borders on mentally challenged, and his belief that he deserves a new contract every 2 years, and as soon as he asks for it.
-
This is a great point that does not seem to take root in people's minds.
Too many people try to determine the quality of a draft by counting the number of resulting starters. If you are a poor team or one that often jettisons its stars when their contract is up (often these are one and the same), you will tend to draft a lot of starters but that does not mean you are making any headway vs. other teams. Does this sound like any team we know of?
Sounds like several NFL teams. What's your point?
-
I'll be watching Bell and wishing him luck. He doesn't have Peter's agent - does he?
Doubtful. Parker wouldn't waste his time on a guy like Bell...at least not yet.
The better question is, does Bell have Peters' lack of intelligence and inflated ego?
-
He didn't say "could be as good as" Peters. He said "could be the next" Jason Peters, which could mean be the next fairly unheralded guy to break into the starting lineup at LT.

And in his other story from camp, he didn't even mention seeing Bell. So it sounds like he's repeating something someone told him rather than something he saw.
Have you heard Bell's name a lot in practice reports the past few days? I haven't. Don't believe it till you see it. File it in the back of your brain under "Maybe."
I've heard Bell's name, Thurm. They've said he's looked decent, but is still a little ways away from starting at LT. Recall that it took Peters 2-1/2 years to become the starting LT for the Bills.

the colts have the peices to overtake the colts? interesting...
peices? interesting...
-
Texans = going up; definite pieces in place
Bills = going somewhere
The TEXANS have the "pieces in place" to overtake the Titans and Colts for the division, or a wildcard spot? Sure.
-
Wonderful.
-
No confirmed source from PFT?
For what it's worth, Sal Maiorana says there's word that Wood showed up at SJF roughly an hour ago.
Too bad it was roughly 2 hours late for today's camp session.

If for no other reason than the fact that the Brandon Bunch even tried to swindle him.
Because "the Brandon Bunch" knew McCargo had a bulging disc but didn't think that Polian would do an MRI on him? Hey, it's a theory.
The best eff up of all time has to be Charley Casserly using his #1 expansion draft pick on Tony Boselli. Strange that the Texans are outpacing the Bills now. I never thought I'd see that.Do you define "outpacing" as "doing virtually no better (1 win more over the last 3 years and no playoff appearances in their history), although having the #1 overall draft pick twice?" If so, then I agree.
