  1. What if they reached out to him and he had no interest in joining a rebuilding situation? He's 34 and an impact guy when healthy. N.O. is a playoff caliber team. Denver has more things in place. Or maybe he will take the tour soon. He hasn't signed anywhere yet.
  2. Everyone should keep in mind the guy is still only 21 years old. He will fill out a little bit naturally. I'm glad he's working.
  3. You obviously haven't paid attention to Nix, Gailey or Whaley. They have all said the Bills would be built through the draft not FA. FA would be lower tiered guys to fill specific roles. If you listened you wouldn't be on the board cryin' right now. Besides, who, worth the money, would you have them sign?
  4. Don't try to talk common sense. That ain't so common in these parts. People would rather whine about everthing they know about or don't know about and put down their own city. Let the grown people have the conversation and leave the criers to themselves.
  5. Why do you think Pashos is any better? He's a journeyman like all the rest.
  6. Have you considered that they could be going down to the last minute with some of the guys you mentioned because they are still trying to work out a long term deal? Then they could use that tender on a different player. Say they sign Wilson. Now you can use the 2nd round tender on Incognito, lets say. But if no long term deal is in effect you give Wilson the 2nd round tender, which they did. And listen, just because people seem to like Icongnito does not mean Nix likes him. And because Nix might not like him doesn't make him wrong. Maybe there's some reason behind the scenes that makes him someone the team doesn't want. Or maybe they feel they can do better. Or maybe he will be brought back. There's still time to do it. Everybody needs to calm down.
  7. Why get yourself upset? The season starts in September. You don't know what their plans are. Bottom line is the guy has experience. Plays hard and can tackle pretty well. Someone who runs a 3-4 might want him and give a pick for him. If not, he could be released OR he could be one of those special teams guys that make the team every year. Calm down. It's not as deep as you make it out to be.
  8. Edwards is NOT as a good as Campbell. You smoke some strong stuff. Trent is not durable. Campbell got beat up all year long, got off the ground and kept playing; with injuries. His arm is stronger than Trent's arm. Check their stats. Edwards is not close to Campbell. I'm not saying Campbell is an all star. But he is better and has more potential than Edwards.
  9. Because they have incompetent leadership that starts in the owner's box. He damaged Campbell with his constant coaching changes and the rest of the team as well. Now there is new "leadership" in town, if Snyder allows it to work, and they might or might not want to go forward with Campbell. Snyder has burned his bridges with Campbell.
  10. In what way is Edwards better? Not as tough, physically or mentally. Not as durable. Not as strong of an arm. Edwards is not better.
  11. I have too. He's got a big arm. He is also tough and durable. He got abused all season and he always got up and came back for more. If he could get good coaching I think he could be something good. If your WR's don't get open you would hold onto the rock as well. Moss gets taken out of many games because he was the best WR they have. Thomas and Kelly didn't start coming on until late in the year. Then the Skins had OLine problems like the Bills. Campbell is better than Fitz or Trent as far as I'm concerned just based on his superior arm strength and his toughness. Trent is not durable and Fitz is not as strong armed.
  12. If you wouldn't take him in the fourth round you are a koo koo. If he's there in the 2nd and the Bills still don't have a NT they better seriously consider taking him. He's not getting drafted to be Mr. Universe. He's being drafted to stuff the run, something he did with regularity at Alabama over the past couple seasons. On the field he plays hard, he plays with passion and he gets the job done. Aaron Maybin is a specimen. I like his potential, but he didn't do much this past season.
  13. Buffalo's problem is and apparently was, it's local government. No vision. No planning. No nothing. It's a shame.
  14. Culpepper is far more accomplished than Trent or Fitz will ever be. He's not great and no more than a quick stop-gap, but he's not as bad those two stiffs.
  15. I like Nix too. And the draft is still a while away. They could still add some more picks. In fact, I think we will see Nix acquire some more picks in the 2nd-4th rounds.
  16. Most stadiums built as far back as the Ralph were are the same. At the time they were built people weren't the supersized versions they are now. It's not so much the tunnel as it is the people; people have gotten bigger in general and outside of that they have gotten fatter too. People take up more space than they used to.
  17. The truth of it is that the Ralph can be redone and higher ticket prices can be charged that put Bills ticket prices on par with the rest of the NFL. Or the Ralph can stay just like it is and ticket prices can be raised to be on par with the rest of the NFL. Soldier Field was also redone. The Ralph has plenty of room to be redone, especially on the outside. And it would be cheaper than a new stadium. I'm all for a new stadium, but where do you believe the money will come from?
  18. The Bills 2010-2011 results have yet to be determined in spite of what the "experts" have to say. Come September the games will start and then we will see what's what. Don't roll over yet. Be optimistic and be confident.
  19. Doesn't throw a wrench in at all. It's just his opinion. The OT could come from the 4th round or be an undrafted FA. Or Campbell could be great. At the end of the day they practice and play the game to determine who can do what; not advise draft guru's pre-draft breakdowns.
  20. Cambell is the victim of bad front office decisions, much like Edwards. But in Campbell's case he has had several different coordinators/head coaches. Always having to learn new offenses. And he had no line at all last season, he took a beating, yet he always got up and came back, unlike Edwards. He is tougher than Edwards and has a bigger arm than Edwards and if Gailey could get him the Bills could stretch the field. I don't see why you wouldn't want to take a chance on Campbell. It's not like you have to give up any high picks for him.
  21. No way. Suh is a great talent, but the Bills cannot afford to give up the number of picks it would take to move up. If anything they should trade down from 9 and pick up an extra 2nd if they can. There's a lot of good depth in this year's draft. Especially at DT.
  22. Cleveland built an outdoor facility; Baltimore; Pittsburgh; Cincinnati; Chicago; New England; the Jets/Giants. No need for a dome to "catch up with the rest of the NFL". Buffalo should be itself. Players play where they get paid and can have success. If they go to Green Bay they will come to Buffalo. No dome needed sir. Money and results are needed. Has nothing to do with the cold.
  23. No Domes. And no Super Bowl is going to be in Buffalo, NY in the winter time until the WNY region gets better economically. Downtown area needs to be returned to life because that's where most folks would need to be, not in the outer suburbs. What hotels are the thousands of media and people coming to the game going to stay in? Folks complained about Detroit and Minneapolis and Jacksonville SB's. People see the SB as a vacation. I don't know if B-lo is equipped for that many people rolling through at one time.
