ganesh

I think last years draft was really to fill back their ST holes and the Bills did really draft in players to challenge the incumbents on those spots. McKelvin is a talent and an exception and he found his way into the CB starting role. If the Bills draft at OT, OG, DE, and TE early in the draft, I don't see how these kids won't be starting for the team come September.

I prefer to use a late rd pick for a TE....I think Derek fine showed glimpses of being good and with Schefler we will have a decent TE who can provide an outlet for Edwards. Our 1st round picks should be used to address the lines for the long term.

I will take Mike Shanahan who I believe can make Edwards into a good QB.

Unger or Mack will be gone in the 1st round when the Steelers pick 32. THey want to rebuild their OL

Different situations. Peters was still making big money (4M a year) to sit on the bench while Fred Jackson is getting paid league minimum. I don't think it is in the character of the Bills to not be fair with players committed to them. If Jackson shows up and does his negotiation with the Bills rather than through the Press, the Bills will pay him this season.

I think it was a bit of both against the 3-4. Our line struggled to protect against the 3-4 defense and the receivers just were not open and when they were open, Edwards just couldn't get the ball. In that Chargers game, Edwards got great protection all day long and it showed in his ability to put the ball where his WRs could get it. As Greg Gumbel mentioned, Roscoe Parrish was insanely open on that sideline route with the amount of time the line gave Edwards protection.

Actually YES in a different way.... The Bills were supposed to trade away Dockery to the Lions in Free Agency, but Russ and his co-workers failed to file the trade papers in time before the 4p.m deadline....I believe it was going to be a 4th rounder....We did effectively give up a 4th rounder in that deal, especially a deal that Dockery even agreed to and went to Detroit for a physical.

I think Credit must be given to the Bills for such a magnificient game....Actually the Chargers at that point were a 3-3 team and did not look past anything.....They were as mediocre as the Bills. Remember the Chargers finished at 8-8, just one game ahead of the Bills, with all that talent and in one of the most weakest division in Football, the AFC West.

And don't forget the KC game where he had a total of 5 TDs....I think he was having a pretty good game against the Jets in Buffalo, before that disaster of a throw that was returned for a TD. If this team can build the defense and let the running game be more dominant, Trent has all the abilities to make this a successful franchise.

We still don't know the full compensation in regards to the next years conditional pick. If as per the rumor from the other site is true, then we could be getting Philly's next years 2nd rounder.....If so, I don't know how bad the deal was aligned towards the Bills.

Agreed...And if it does, the bills will get a stud defensive player like Raji falling through the crack...I think the Bills should build for the long term with the draft picks rather than trading up....In the last 6 years we have traded up to get Denney, Losman, McCargo, not to mention picking McGahee when we had Travis Henry.....

That is why I think the Bills should go DL/LB this draft early on and get Henderson from the Jax...You have a great ST, build a great Defense and let Edwards manage the game. That is right up the alley for Edwards, Turk and Dick Jauron...I hope they can do what they preach......Run Marshwan, Jackson and Rhodes for 2000 yards...

He has really played 16 games, having missed most of his rookie season.....

The Super bowl champions steelers had a patchwork redefined OL that was centered around Hatrwig who was dropped by the Jaguras and Max Starks who used to be their RT moved to LT after Smith was injured. They also plugged in two bunch of unknowns for replacing the departed Faneca at LG postiion and when Simmons was on IR, he was replaced by another no-name guard ....and they just did ok....

Lindell came in from FA. Wilson is not on this team anymore. Reed and Denney are backups. Schoebel, Moorman and Evans are only starters we have to show for from that Era. Reason why the Bills are not in the playoffs..

Williams, McGahee, Losman, Peters, and Parrish, Kelsay all to come........ That will leave Evans, McGee and Schobel as the only players that left a mark on this team from that Era And of course the Marv Levy Era is not looking very good either.... Poz is still a question mark....McCargo is officially a bust...

They paid 25M to get his services after a fluke play in the Super Bowl XL.

Is that how the Bills extended the contracts for McGee, Schoebel, Evans, Parrish, Butler in the last few years...If the Bills find talent who works with the team, they will find a way to get the deal done. The Bills have been fair to the folks who have been loyal to the team.

Don't you know the difference between serious and sarcasm

Their kick return has been horrible.....As far as punt return they have had an electrifying one in Holmes....But Holmes will likely become a full time WR....I hope the Bills don't trade Roscoe to the SB champions....

I will send him to Washington or NY....Why in the AFC.

This is similar to the McGahee trade....McGahee did not want to play for the Bills, in spite of the Bills taking a flyer on him with a 1st round pick and letting him sit and rehab for a year...Both wanted money and out of Buffalo and both got their wish. The Bills have just done fine with McGahee's replacement in Lynch and they will hopefully do the same with whoever they draft to replace Peters.

You just contradicted yourself. On one hand you say the Bills were cheap and did not want to pay 11-12M for Peters and yet here you mention that they will trade up and pick the top 3 talent and yet pay the same amount....Where did the Cheapness go

Agreed...Those two were very good drafts...However, they looked good only because they were also very need based drafts that required talent infusion....

The Redskins have an even bigger logjam at WRs than the Bills having drafted Devan Thomas and Malcolm Kelly in the 2nd round last year along with Moss, Randal El and Chris Cooley. Why would they want him unless Danny Smith (our Former ST coach) is still hanging around there.
