Green Lightning

This is Buddy Nix's team plain and simple. Thank the freakin' heavens. After all the handwringing over Nix's hire and Chan's hire on this board I think people are starting to get it that these good ol' boys know a thing or two about football. Go Bills!

Now that's funny.

You know, there's some truth to what you say and there are plenty of Donte haters due to his draft position and who he ain't. All that said, anyone who would pay top ten money for him is just nuts. He's a good football player but not elite. Sign him for $3 mil, but man, nowhere near $5 or $6 mil. That's just stupid.

As stated earlier in the thread, thanks for saving me typing time. You're dead on.

So it would be better to have a consensus #1 pick that underperforms? We have a lot of them. Troup isn't a reach if he performs this year. My point was you're dumping on the guy for not being a star in year one. Nix knows more than you or I do about football and he likes what he saw in Troup. So let's see. That's how you build teams and assemble talent. You don't make a fuss over them not being all-pro as rooks. If Troup equal's Raji in his sophmore year it will be a second round pick equaling a first round pick so how is that a reach? I would suggest dimissing draft pundits and listen to the guys who know football.

What will be your excuse when you puke out of the playoffs again this year? You have a lot of talent on that team, particularly on D, but you don't have the character and discipline to take the hill. Too much Blah, Blah and chest thumping and you can't back it up. Sort of like your posts. So far, in the last decade, the Jets and Bills are tied for Superbowl appearances. We will be again this year. And keep looking over your shoulder because we're coming.......

Good point Astro. Tough and big. Every pick is just big. A 6'8" RT, a 319 lb DE, a 223 lb safety. All bigger than the players they are replacing, not to mention nastier.

I think Code is thinking about the court proceedings. Could be a chance we live with existing rules next year. I still think it's time to break up with DW.

If the OP was a Green Bay fan he would have written the same thing about BJ Ragi two years ago as he didn't do squat in his rook season and only came on in the middle of last season. Troup will be a force. Relax mister instant results.

Gotta agree with the OP. No one is saying don't post your opinions. It's just some of the stuff posted is beyond stupid and needlessly negative.

Says it all Good one. +1

It's like we were twin sons of different mothers.....I wouldn't change one word of this post! +1

You are absolutely correct! Unbelievable giveaway. Let's give them our 34 for all the rest of their picks this year and next......

Pick D at 34 and trade back into the second for any of the three. I like Kaepernick and Mallet.

I think it's mandetory if you are going to post on this board, you have to grasp and use such terms. I mean really, don't all of us welcome 2-gap responsiblity? How we post "in space" or with our "hand on the ground" says something about who we are as fans. Jeezy Creezy son, don't be a WILL, be a SAM and embrace 0-3-5 technique lingo. Either that or say 220- 330, whatever it takes......

I am phsyched!!!! Go Bills!!!

Precisely. There is no number two. We need D help in every area. I like the upside of Carrington, Moats and Troup. Beyond that our LB's are pitiful and DB's average. This draft is deep in DL and LB's. Let's get as many as we can!

I'm good with this. It would mean that either Kaepernick and Ponder are gone or Buddy/Chan weren't sold on either. Have to trust their choices.

You tell'em Pete! +1

Talk to me after the Jets put another 200+ yards on the ground against us....twice. Getting a shot at a guy like Dareus don't come along every year, or maybe it does and we pick a DB or RB....... Let's quit thinking about flash and get guys in here who are the foundation of a winning team....the line.

I predict pulling names out of a hat at random has a better chance of happening than the above scenario.

Umm, whatever. The short bus should be out front soon.

Says who? We can't pressure a QB for squat. Miller could be a force! He can be a game changer. Last I checked even Brady looks ordinary when you get in his grill. _

Hard to argue
