Goodbye.

BUFFALO RULES!!!!! Congratulations to all of our prize winners. Next year's draft order: 1. Buffalo Stampede 2. Saratoga Swingers 3. Blitzing Barracudas 4. Pro Bowler 5. Absolut Power 6. Kickin Wing 7. BuffBills#1 8. Wu Tang Financial 9. Shop Wreckers 10. BUFFALO RULES Next up will be determining who our 3 keepers will be. This year, we'll have until June 1st to designate our 3 keepers. There will be a thread on our league site that you can use to name your keepers. Do not list them here. Congrats once again to our winners, and I'll see you all next year!

Nor is sense those shiny things jingling in your pocket, either.

Who's Bill Willis?

I think that further proves GuessWhozBack21's point, if you're alluding to Jones' durability problems.

What? I've heard of him...

Agreed. That's a much better idea. I'll take Robert Edwards on my team...

Okay then, let's get Jim Brown.

Even though I haven't attended college in 15 years, I'd have to agree.

Happy birthday.

He's the next Ron Pawlus, huh? I think he's got way better skills than Pawlus. Whether or not they'll translate to major college football is to be determined.

Now, if he can just learn the name of the school he's coaching ("Illinoise"). Wanny has had a second good recruiting class in a row @ Pittsburgh also.

Have you taken a look @ the recruiting class Butch Davis is putting together? They won't be a bad team for long. Like Mack Brown before him, Butch is a solid recruiter. Not a great Xs and Os coach (like Mack Brown before him), but a very good recruiter.

Mine too.

G Justin Blalock of Texas

I don't think there's enough room in the poor house for two big ol' DL from North Carolina. He'll have to wait until Julius Peppers leaves and creates an occupancy. Then again, Peppers had to wait out that Lawrence Taylor guy before, so...

Puh leaze. You wanna trade recruiting classes w/ Penn State? They're doing quite well.

Actually, Harvey is one of the more astute posters on this board when it comes to football info. I can think of a few hundred people here who fit your description, but I certainly wouldn't put Harvey (or you, for that matter) among them.

Yep, and the Bills will sign one: Lance Briggs. After, of course, we re-sign Nate Clements, and sign G Eric Steinbach. Throw in another G and LB for added measure, too.

We still must take an OL or DL w/ our first pick, regardless of what happens in free agency. We just gotta. In the second, maybe we can take a kicker.

We'll go w/ the 4 round mock, then. It will probably be done a week or two before the NFL Draft. Once we get closer, I'll post reminders about it.

To the victor goes the spoils. Penn State lost a pretty good RB prospect to USC (Broderick Green), and overall, did not have a huge day. Only 1 of the Rivals 100 signed, and they were only on the list of 3 others. Still, they've got a good group of young talent and I think they'll be okay, for the most part. The key for them will be getting their lines in order quickly.

Yep. Deion's 11th hour interference seems to be swaying the kid. Then again, after his test results come back (it makes no sense that it takes 4 weeks for a college to get his test results!!), Rodriguez may not even want him. They say he is to football what Carmelo Anthony was to basketball, in terms of their academic ability.

"That school" has a good recruiting class, but not better than USC, who got 3 of the top 14 (1st, 2nd, adn 14th) RB prospects in the nation. And that was just for starters.
