There has been a lot of angst about letting Levitre go--I get that, I do think he has been the most consistent lineman the Bills have had the past few years. Not spectacular, but good. I would have preferred they keep him. However, having said that, I think the Bills starting group this season will not suffer. My prediction is that Wood will be playing guard, and Snow or Brown will be at center. Or, Wood staying at center and Brown becomes the starter at LG. I think that is still a pretty decent line. Either way, I don't see us using the #8 pick to select an o-lineman, and the guys there now will do a credible job. In the end, I don't see a drop-off coming. Your thoughts . . .

Buddy will get'er done! As soon as he gets off the phone with Manti Te'o's girlfriend -- he called her to do some pre-draft character research.

a good signing, now keep going Buddy

nice work! The Bills better get a solid free agent guard, I hate the idea of spending a #8 pick on a guard . . . tackle, yes, guard, not!

That excites me

- Smart drafting, possibly trading to pick up some good value extra picks (because we have so many needs) - Signing a few competent free agents that will have an immediate impact--some suggested Scott and Amendola, that would be a good thing - Many have suggested: WINNING => it cures everything - A minor miracle and we get a decent QB either by Jackson or some other FA stepping up, or a surprise from the draft . . . I certainly don't want to be here talking about the same QB needs again this time next year.

REALLY???? That has been the only knock?? The real irony here is that this teams' problem the last two years has been the lack of any hint of a Defense! But yes, letting one of your most reliable O-lineman walk, releasing veteran QB, that for all his inconstancies, still put you in position to win games, oh, and add to that, the total absence of a WR core now. Yep! Blow-up the offense, that's been our only problem all along. That's the only knock on him. Marrone = Greg Williams 2.0

that, I am starting to agree more and more with

All this is more of a commentary on having a poor GM than it is on Fitz. Should have never given him the big contract to begin with. Now you just fluseh 7 million dollars down the Cap Money drain. Fitz is/was a solid insurance policy, he'll be somewhere on a good team. And the Bills, we again start over - and with no real QB at all now.

chill dude

let's hope!

Right, same thing they said about Greg Williams; you remember the tough guy fog horn strategy right? . . . and how did that work out? I've said it before and I'll say it again, I see so much of the same thing coming from Marrone. So far, I'm not buying it, but I do hope I'm wrong.

First Scott, now scorindorin, Super Bowl Baby!

Unfortunate, he looked pretty good when he return to in the 2nd half of this season. Would have been interesting to see what he could do if healthy, hard to believe he is only 28.

The more we learn about how the Bills are dealing with residing players -- or, not -- the more I think this is a dysfunctional system. WHy has there been so little communication with the current players--Fitz, David Nelson, and now Levitre, have all said as much. And whom would be responsible for that? Buddy Nix! My trust in him is getting lower and lower.

Starters are strong (assuming Anderson is 100%), I like Carrington--but he needs to be more consistent, same with Moore (if he returns) . . . but again, another position that is thin

would love to see Amendola in a BIlls uniform

I would love to see the Bills go after this free agent: Andy Levitre!

Well, I doubt the Ravens let him walk, but if they do, heck yes!

It would not be progress to let Levitre walk, and then draft another guard, or even OT .... that is just moving sideways. It would be progress to sign Levitre, and then draft someone else to improve the line.

:thumbsup:

Oh, we have a better strategy, help them develop, and then let them walk so we can replace the with cheaper, but less predictable, draft picks.

" . . . he struggled somewhat throwing deep balls. " Don't they all ????
