    Bills Exploring A Trade To Land Andre Smith

    Posted by Aaron Wilson on April 24, 2009, 12:37 p.m. EDT

    In the wake of trading Pro Bowl left offensive tackle Jason Peters to the Philadelphia Eagles, the Buffalo Bills are contemplating moving up from the No. 11 spot to try to acquire Alabama offensive tackle Andre Smith, according to Adam Caplan of Scout.com.

     

    To do so, the Bills would likely need to work a deal to leapfrog the Cincinnati Bengals. The Bengals are reportedly very interested in the Outland Trophy award winner, too.

     

    Smith, who has drawn heavy criticism for the way he has mishandled the draft process, remains a strong prospect based on his size, body of work against top competition and his potential upside if he matures.

     

    There’s also a fair amount of risk involved with Smith, too, given his weight issues and questionable litany of decisions.

     

    Smith drew increased scrutiny when he abruptly left the NFL Scouting Combine early without informing league and combine officials.

     

    “I’m convinced and I think that most of the NFL is convinced that what we saw from Andre Smith at the combine was more about immaturity than about him being a bad kid,” NFL Network draft analyst Mike Mayock said during a conference call. “And he needs to grow up a little bit and take things a little bit more seriously and stay in shape.”

  2. Stafford might be our pick at 28, if these guys don't take him first, FYI:

     

    1. Detroit (0-16)

    2. St. Louis (2-14)

    3. Kansas City (2-14)

    4. Seattle (4-12)

    5. Cleveland (4-12)

    6. Cincinnati (4-11-1)

    7. Oakland (5-11)

    8. Jacksonville (5-11)

    9. Green Bay (6-10)

    10. San Francisco (7-9)

    11. Buffalo (7-9)

    12. Denver (8-8)

    13. Washington (8-8)

    14. New Orleans (8-8)

    15. Houston (8-8)

    16. San Diego (8-8)

    17. New York Jets (9-7)

    18. Denver (from Chicago)(9-7)

    19. Tampa Bay (9-6)

    20. Detroit (from Dallas) (9-7)

    21. Philadelphia (9-6-1)

    22. Minnesota (10-6)

    23. New England (11-5)

    24. Atlanta (11-5)

    25. Miami (11-5)

    26. Baltimore (11-5)

    27. Indianapolis (12-4)

  3. I'm looking into getting some season tickets in the upper level. I want to be close to the aisle. Obviously seat 1 is on the aisle but I was wondering if anyone knows which seat number is closest to the aisle on the opposite side of the section? Thanks in advance for any help.

  4. "After that 56-10 debacle I refuse to pay money to watch the bills play the patriots. Sold my season tickets for that game last year and plan on it this year as well. Sad."

     

    Here's an idea: sell ALL of your season tickets and go become a Jamestown Jammers fan instead. Don't want you at the games anyway.

     

    Give me a break. I drive out 5 hours from Albany. Too many years in a row, the game has not even been a contest. It is too expensive of a weekend to waste on watching us get our tails kicked. I still root my ass off from home. When we beat them more than one time in 17 games I'll pay to see it in person again.

  5. I'm actually ok with this rule. You can still try to take the QB down when you are on the ground, you just can't lunge at his knees. I will be really pissed if they crack down even more on defensive backs hitting receivers like they say they might. Big hits are part of the game. Fear and toughness are parts of the game. If it is not helmet to helmet, I don't see what is wrong with cleaning a guy's clock who is coming over the middle. But I guess that is just the ex-player in me speaking...
