Oh, so "the Final Trent Edwards" thread is just the final one before this one......... Well let's kick it off SW.....I think Trent can still make all the throws and if given more time, can manage the game for CG and the new look offense..... (Need Darth Ice to come in now)

Stand in line!

See my earlier comment about crapping being a whole lot easier than thinking. Here's a classic example.

Tough questions, some skepticism and honest and fair criticism are all part of being a fan. But those who just want to crap on everything do so because it is easier than thinking. Taking as step back and looking on the team, I see a great many positives and some areas of concern. But underscoring it all is hope and optimism for a better year. And it's not pollyanna, it's based on some football moves from a new FO that has a plan and a damn clue about running a football team. Buddy has smarts and patience. He knows where he is in the rebuild process. I gotta go with him. So let others dismiss and and just p*ss and moan. That's all they know how to do. The rest of us, Hell, let's enjoy the ride!

Nice post with valid points made. I thought Meredith played pretty well for a rook plucked from another team's PS. I was concerned about Brohm's accuracy. But your argument is valid and thanks for the effort.

Time will tell but I disagree with you on this. We got bigger, stronger and faster. We have some stop gaps to be sure but also building blocks for a big and strong young team. Buddy has repeatedly said thsi will not be a one draft turnaround. After hating the past four off-seasons, I'm liking this one. I see a plan and growth.

Agree. He was brought in for experience and back up. Will start if Meredith is not ready.

They read press clippings, hear draftniks rank the draft low and have low expectations of a first year FO. I say GREAT! keep the expectations low and let us surprise people.

Jeez, you gotta give the guy a chance to check down! Despite all the gnashing of teeth on the QB situation, Nix seems confident that a decent coach and a seasoned OC (same guy for us now) can put together an effective attack with what we have. If it works, I could care less who is taking the snaps.

NO NO NO NO! Short of that, NO! If we're going to bring in failure, let's at least make it face we haven't seen before.

You may end up being mighty conflicted. What if Trent starts, is born-again with stones, becomes a field marshall and is winning? What's a Maddog to do?

It takes stones to apologize. We all get hot-headed every now and again, there but for the grace of God go I.

Not our issue and we don't ask questions like that so I really don't care how eff'd up the Dolphins are. All it does is give players second thoughts about who they want to play for. Bottom line, stupid question.

I think Nelson could be an impact player this year. We have some weapons and a back t who can score on any play at any time!

I know you can't abide the guy but like it or not, I think Edwards is more in the mix than you think. I get the feeling Chan thinks he can resurrect the guy.

By gosh, I think people are ignoring you! I shall as well!

Wow, the whole world was watching? I knew the draft ratings were good, but wow.....the whole world watching and waiting for out LT decision? Oh yeah, Wang brought the Chinese audience in....... J*sus H...relax. This will work itself out and ACL's are not the death knell they used to be.

2009 NY Jets

He's a 4-3 DT. Too tall to anchor a 3-4. Not a great choice for a DE in a 3-4. Great player but doesn't fit what we are running now.

That's not what he's saying. The picks the Bills made (save for Troup) were rated higher by others (see CBS Sports draft ratings) then where we drafted them.

Watching him play last year it seemed he lost a step from when he was tearing up the league. Thought there was talk of moving him inside. We're ok at ILB.

Great breakdown and great article. Thanks for posting it. Explains why Denver always had a relatively light OL but still produced great running games and 1,000 yard rushers.

Another DI "Edwards is a Kitty" thread? Jesus, that's the third this week and it's only Monday!

You shouldn't be more optimistic. You should lock yourself in a room with one 25 watt light bulb burning as you read the complete works of Jerry Sullivan and get it all out man! Wallow in your misery and agonize. Then go follow the following sports teams: The StL Rams, Pittsburgh Pirates, NJ Nets, Florida Panthers and the Northwestern College Football and either hit rock bottom yourself and end it all.........................
