haha, judging players by highlight reels...too much

You have obviously never seen him play, he is horrible.
An article on the internet mentioned him though. He's got to be gold!
-
Players wouldn't like Jauron as much and he might not be thought of as "a really nice guy" if me made them catch balls in the middle of the field.
Plus, he couldn't figure out how to get TV installed there so the players wouldn't get bored during the game.

but I could see the league making some exceptions or something to help teams get back under the cap
It shouldn't, but it will.

Seriously, if Edwards is given the job; it's going to be a challenge to sit through the games....haven't we suffered enough already? I read in the media that it's Edward's job to lose but he had already lost the job last year -
Brohm appears sharper in the footage and in the reports from OTAs. For the love of the fan base, please don't give it to Edwards b/c that's the easy thing to do, Chan. Brohm's upside is much better
Well, we should definitely go with your opinion based off reports from other people and brief video clips instead of the coaching staff and their..being there.

No. Just because you have heard of him before doesn't mean he should be signed.

No. Just because you heard his name before doesn't make him a good fit.

And all the lemmings that eat Bills management tripe (regardless of who holds the GM chair) need to ask at what point does a team that had one of the worst Olines in football last year get serious about treating the problem.
The point they stop making panic moves and making good moves. You may need to get across the street in 30 seconds so you're not late to work again and up fired, but if there's cars coming down the road consistently at 60MPH, there's no sense in crossing the road...you won't make it.
It's unlikely Nix/Gailey don't want to make a move, but making a move *just* to make a move is *why* the Bills are where they are..
Many of these signing that fans want are fixing a giant hole spewing oil by drilling another hole. Stop-gap measures instead of real solutions.

I would argue if you had a solid left tackle this is a 500 team maybe better. Plus as pointed out earlier it would be nice to see what the quaterbacks could do not running for their lives . Adding one vetern free agent /trade harldy changes the over concept of the front office
So you want to sign a guy to huge contract to be a 500 team? A contract that the Superbowl winning Saints (the current Omnipotent gods of Talent Evaluators on TBD) consider a horrible enough proposition to let him go without making much of an attempt to keep him when they don't seem to have a much better backup situation at LT than what the Bills do?
What makes that contract better for the Bills than the Saints? Aren't we hoping this regime stops making horrible decisions like the Dockery deal?

Sad but true, despite the self-denial from other posters in this thread.
Nelson is still raw, but is our best, and likely would be a #2 or #3 on most teams.
The other guys have practice-squad talent.
You agree with a Pats Fan. I think that says something about your opinion.

I get what you are saying but this is such a huge need for us .
This is the crux of the problem with fans. It's a huge need for *you*, not "us" or "The Bills".
They've stated that they want 'young'. Brown is not young. Why would they throw away their philosophy for one player?
As much as we want to bash on Bell, Wang, etc...The Bills don't know what they have and if the project is such a huge rebuild then signing this one player before you've been able to evaluate your station would be stupid. If they sign Brown to a big extension then they are locked into him for however long that extension is for and that would likely be 2-3 years for a guy coming off an injury.
Last year was bad for many players on the Offensive line, but considering the competence level of the coaching staff. No one knows if some of these guys are salvageable.
What I really fail to grasp is that the same people who put this team as one step above a little league team want to make signings to 'win now'. If the Bills are so far away how does singing s player that won't be here or will be too old by the time they're ready to compete help or does Jamal Brown make them an instant contender? Seriously?
It's entirely possible that he's a great player and could provide a huge boost, but a player seeking a large extension coming off a serious injury and was on a Superbowl winning team may not be the most motivated person in the world to give his all to a team who's playoff prospects look dim.
Can we all stop being the kid desperate for a date to the prom? We don't need to ask our cousin to go just because we don't have a date yet. I'd rather get the 'right' player than overpay another offensive lineman who isn't going to be what's needed just because he is a name we heard on ESPN at some point and doesn't play for the Bills.

Wow, people pay money to read that?

I have never said that I thought Snyder would be a great owner. I don't know how you can come to that conclusion? What I will say about Snyder is that the Haynesworth heist is a situaton he will learn from. Although he got robbed or hustled by AH I'm sure he will now rely on his newly installed front office and HC to make the football decisions instead of allowing himself to act on his foolish whims and impulses.
Yes, his previous record shows that he hires 'football' guys and then never interferes. Synder may stay out of it for a year like Jerry Jones did with Parcells, but it will be the same situation. He will want to start making decisions again.

The Bills took what appeared to be a VERY short amount of time to select Spiller on draft day. Do I have the exact time frame? No, I do not. But, they appeared to waste no time at all to make this selection. The fact that they made this selection in such haste leads me to believe that there was no interest in a trade down under any circumstances.
My question: Do you think that:
A) Nix and Gailey we SO certain that Spiller was the best player available that they were tripping all over themselves to make the selection? Or.....
B) They were ordered by Mr. Wilson to pick Spiller with the hope that a "flashy" player such as Spiller would be a great move to sell tickets in a bad economy and increase profits, and had no other option given that Mr. Wilson owns the team?
Not sure how you missed all the talk on this previously, but it was said as clear as day that teams know who they are taking and and 99% of the 'waiting' was simply grandstanding or prayer by the teams waiting. Nix said prior to the draft he didn't need to spotlight for ten minutes so they would not perform this tactic. It was also stated that it's rare for the deals 'to be made' during that time and it is usually that teams have laid the price out there, it's known what it would take so there is only minor changes and signing the actual paperwork when a trade does happen. It has also been mentioned that some teams simply wait until the pick to make a trade 'just in case'.
In Short, everything you see on draft day is a stage performance.

couldn't care less that he missed today for wedding, but I really like how the sub 100 crowd keeps throwing around, "Spiller isn't an every down back".
-
That's gotta be a record or something!
It's being written into the history books as we speak.

In my opinion, he's doing what is necessary to keep getting his name published. He's trying to send up a clear signal to other teams that he'd like to be traded (as if they hadn't figured that out).
At this point, everyone knows. I can see this being the case, but it's a mistake. He knows the Bills aren't letting him go unless they get what they feel is fair value and this only lowers his value. It would be true to form that he makes very bad decisions. Hopefully, we'll see less of those decisions on the field.
-
Voluntary means it's his option, so let's talk next wednesday if he is absent.
Hopefully we'll be talking about the mistake in Seattle giving up a 2nd round pick for him as the reason he's absent

just watch the games online for free until the NFL provides a decent service for watching the games online.

I think if they use the No Huddle again, it will be successful this time.

Rick Gosselin does think for himself. He is WELL RESPECTED league wide. Bills Nation needs to get on his ''good side'''
to gain his support to get Andre Reed in the HOF.
Bills Nation doesn't need to do squat to get Reed in the HOF. He'll be there.
-
I wonder if this means Hixon is available and if we can get him
-
I don't understand what Buddy is waiting for...switch back to the 4-3 and get 'er done!

You could point to most playoff teams and they are missing 4-5 starters on each side of the ball let alone other depth and role players hurt.
I'm not weighing in on the topic, but name one team in the playoffs last year with 4-5 starters injured on each side of the ball when the playoffs rolled around.

Holy Crap, can we trade Marshawn for him?
