What a way to build a team... Not being able to resign players ... Having them leave when they are at the height of their careers and getting better. Buddy Nix is out of date with the rest of the NFL teams. Others are filling rosters with quality players while Nix looks to add to the team with players other teams are willing to let go.
How many quality players have the Bills seen go to other teams when their contracts were up?
Why is the front office so dysfunctional when it comes to re-signing quality players who management wants to keep?
Losing is becoming a tradition with the Bills and the fans are really tired of it....
But lets feel better and listen to the spin doctors tell us things will get better.....We have been hearing that for over 11 years now......
Don't you love when they tell us how they will make the team better and then see them fail at it? Ouch
Another Year down the drain.......
Only some dramatic moves on Nix's part now will change my mind... Moves that will show they want improvement now and not wait ........ PS... They have the money to do it.... I just want to see them start winning and stop being the leagues laughing stock...
You owe me the one minute of my life that I spent reading this crap and will never get back. If you promise to never write another post again, we can call it even.

For the last time, Maybin's problems aren't because of lack of effort. Gailey has said that he is a very hard worker and I can't remember ever hearing that he is lazy. Of course, being a hard worker won't make you a good NFL player. Some players have "it", other's don't. Maybin is the latter.
I agree with this assessment. He had no business being picked as early as he was. That wasn't his fault.

So seems most people want to wash their hands of a few bills, fine who would you rather have at these positions
MLB - replacing poz
Ss - replacing whitner
Olb/de - replacing kelsay
Te - replacing Nelson
Rt - replacing whomever
I say there is nobody out there better at MLB and ss right now and rt seems pears might be okay but kelsay could be replaced with a tackling dummy and Nelson with a
Coughdrop
I actually like both Kelsay and Nelson. A lot.

Yeah, but maybe he says that out of respect.
Goodell should not suspend him, but should force him to play without a helmet. Harrison can play the wants to--you know, not like a pu***y, Goodell gets rid of a league embarrassment after a season (or even a few games!) and that doc in Boston gets another brain to confirm yet another case of NFL induced CTE---everyone wins!
I agree, WEO. Everyone knows it's better to be pissed off, than to be pissed on. So he pissed him off by calling him names, but showed respect by saying he'd never go so far as to piss on him. Poor guy is misunderstood.
-
Depends on what he's asking for. I doubt he'll find a lot of suitors for top-dollar demands.
Ditto. I'm fine if he stays ... as long as the Bills don't overpay. He's an average LB and should get average (NFL) money.

Were not in bad times due to buying jerseys from china, what I mean is with this economy, who are u to judge people buying jerseys for cheap while gas is 4 dollars a gallon and jobs are hard to come by. How am I selling out america? Because I buy a couple jerseys from china every year? Do you know how much I spend on the bills every year alone. Season tickets 2000, gas is about 500 a year, hotel about 800-1000 a year, parking over 100, add tolls, and food to that as well and your judging because I save a few bucks on jerseys? Get lost man, and while I'm not prejudice or anything like that, immigrants coming to our country is a much bigger issue then an 11 year old making jerseys and getting sold in the us and its not even close.
And taking jobs from americans***
If I've learned nothing else today, I've learned that I am grateful that you have not become a NYS Trooper. Here's a hint, anyone whose ever said the phrase, "and while I'm not prejudice or anything like that," is a bigot.

WEO's "inevitable injury" phrase says it all. Vick can't stay healthy with his style of play. It's impossible. Way too small. And Steve Young was as great as he was because he had superior intelligence to go along with his physical abilities. I think Vick had a great year last year. But he couldn't stay healthy. He's not getting any younger.

Suh and Adrien Peterson.

Kolb = Edwards 2.0

Johnson
Nelson
Evans
Byrd

Huh. I remember him very well as a Buffalo Bill, but I don't remember him getting paralyzed.

T.O. is a freakish athlete with an amazing work ethic and yes, he did handle himself well in Buffalo considering what was happening around him. I think that could have been more because he knew his options were very limited and he wasn't going to make himself look worse. For all the good things you can say about T.O. you can say as many negative things. I do agree with you that if Evans had this kind of work ethic he could be one of the best considering his physical tools. But part of me thinks that T.O.'s work ethic is a bi-product of his "all about me" attitude. He wanted the be that much better and bigger than everyone else.
That isn't to say you CANT have work ethic and still be a team player, this is just how I view T.O. His numbers speak for themselves, he will make it in to the HoF and deservedly so. I respect him for his talent, I just never liked the guy.
Well-stated.
-
I feel sorry for the guy. He represented himself well (minus a game or two) while in Buffalo. He isn't ringless from a lack of effort, that's for damn sure. If Lee Evans had T.O.'s work ethic, drive and confidence, he'd be a lot better. That's why he's our number 2 guy now ... but that's another story. If this is how T.O.'s career ends, then it's sad. One of the hardest working and best WRs to play the game, in my opinion.

Pet Peeve Alert
Did Schobel's indecision effect affect the Bills in 2010?
Irregardless of the mispelling, you knew what he meant. :-)

On the grand scale of Diva Wide Receivers, Chad is by far the most fun, irreverent, and likable in my opinion.
He's never gotten into trouble with the law. He's been a great football player for the most part. For much of his career he was willing to go over the middle and absorb punishment to make the catch…unlike many of his Diva… Brethren.
Yes, he's a big immature and a bit egocentric but it's all harmless stuff.
Do I want him on the Bills? No… just as I wouldn't want any number of aging veterans getting in the way of developing some of our younger players.
His age (33) is what makes him unattractive to me…just as guys like Kevin Boss (27) and Zach Miller (25) are attractive because of their age. Younger guys can grow with a rebuilding team.
Perfectly stated.

I've really been enjoying his recent interviews and in my eyes it sure looks like he's having a grand time being in charge of football. He came out of retirement but he doesn't show signs of weariness or regret of that decision. (unlike Levy IMO) He looks more comfortable than when he first took the job and at this point it looks to me like there is nothing else in the world that he'd rather be doing.
I have grown to really like him as our GM.
I agree on all points and I also like him very much as our GM. He's got a chip on his shoulder and I love that. Buddy and Chan aren't stupid ... they know the Bills have been an NFL laughing stock, and they also know many people snickered at each of their hires. So far, I think each of them has done a phenomenal job and I haven't scratched my head at any decisions they've made. They've got the team headed in the right direction for a change. I hope they're in Buffalo a long time.

I can't imagine Ocho Cinco and Whitner being on the same team. We'd have the NFL's two top tweeters on either side of the ball.

When they lose Brady it is over
That's what they thought when Bledsoe went down ... and what they thought when Brady went down and only had Matt Cassel to back him up. As long as they have that owner, that front office and that head coach - they'll be favorites to win the AFC East every single year. And rightfully so.

I know i know, questions about his character and leadership are valid. But with that being said, "Vince Young finished his Titans career with a 30-17 record (63.8%) over five years. During that span, the Titans compiled a record of 15-18 (45.5%) without Young." The guy wins football games pretty much 2 to 1. And the same team is 500 without him. I dont care what u think about him u cannot argue those stats. It is getting close to 2 decades without a winning QB here in Buffalo. Also i big reason on why Young makes sense is it gives us the flexibility to draft two top defensive prospects.
Preference for a QB starts in this order...
Newton @3
Mallet @34
or Vince Young in FA
I'd rather get Radio.

Agreed. I take no satisfaction in it. Brady earned his stripes. He's got the rings to prove it. If he wants to cry, let him. You can't blame him for poor ownership and management of the Bills.
It would have been nice to see us actually compete against the Patriots and actually create a rivalry. But how can there be one, when the Bills can't win 10 games for nothing. Remember the Dolphins/Bills of the 90s... Those were great because we were both good and always fighting to win the division.
Take a step back... The Bills/Patriots games from 2000-2010 were nothing to get excited about because Bills Ownership/management put a piss poor product on the field for a whole decade now. Tom Brady took advantage of it. Can you really blame him for that???
If that makes you happy to watch him cry good for you.
It makes me cry Ralph Wilson never took the time to go out and get the talent to rebuild this team to championship quality this city deserves... Thanks for a decade of mediocrity Ralph...
Mediocrity ... you're in a generous mood! Brady works harder, prepares more and is just plain better than any QB Buffalo has had since Kelly left. And he's a class act - and a first ballot hall of famer - on top of it. There are many reason the Patriots are so much better than the Bills. Tom Brady is on HUGE reason.

No, actually the trade facilitated the use of a first round pick on Marshawn Lynch, which turned out to be another disaster.
And the Bills have nothing to show for those picks. McGahee actually outlasted those picks. Sad.
The prudent thing would have been to hold onto McGahee in his walk year. He was exactly the type of guy who would play his asss off for a pay day.
Then just find another back......like, I don't know a Fred Jackson or any number of dime a dozen backs.
Actually, if they had traded McGahee for a sixth round pick and that pick ended up being Tom Brady.......then it would have been a great trade. Who you ACTUALLY get in the trade is the net result of the trade. They got nothing.
Exactly. I think the moral of the story is ... never draft a RB in the first round. Ever.

Spiller is the next Maybin. He is too small for the NFL. A terrible pick and Buddy should be fired for taking him.
He's about the same size as Barry Sanders, wouldn't you say?

Great post. All excellent points and the conclusion you draw is irrefutable.
