That's great and all, but individual complaints will have zero results. A large group such as I don't know, this whole board
would fare much better IMO. -
Just because you draft a guy doesn't mean he is ready right out of the gate. Reed has easily beaten out Evans so far through training camp and pre-season according to many fans AND coaches who have watched this guy for hundreds of hours both live and on film. MM has already stated that Evans will see plenty of action in the 3 WR set and allow Reed to go inside. "proven he couldn't be the #2 guy"???? Please explain. Anyway, in effect Evans is not going to be "on the bench". This is a non-issue IMO.

I think it's interesting also how once decent sports personalities like the Bulldog (when he was on 930 AM) and to a lesser degreee Shoop (on 107.7) could regress to this point.

I haven't come across more than a small handful of posters on this board who enjoy that station. The combination of pure unfounded negativity and lack of football knowledge on the station is nauseating. The big problem is that many of us are such Bills diehards that we will suffer to listen just because it's the only game in town. I would imagine if we took the 90% of posters on this board who think the programming sucks on WGR and sent a group email or petition to the management of the station, they might listen. Then again, who knows? It seems that management drives the controversial BS on the station.

You don't need Foxboro Mike to tell you that someone's gonna regret that....

I agree with Todd on OGun, though I'd rather have Seymour than AS. He's one of the best in the game right now.
And Foxboro, don't think that you're breaking news to all of us when you mention that sacks aren't everything. AS is not good ONLY because of sacks. There are plenty of us here who have either played the game and/or have a fairly deep understanding of it.

No, I can do it too. It means you'd probably make a good drummer ;-)

stop the madness! i can't read this crap any longer! how about everyone adopt a code next to his or her member name so we'll know into which of these camps you fall:
a -- love donahoe and every move he makes
b -- respect donahoe as a very good GM but think it's fair to debate and critique his decisions rationally
c -- hate donahoe; he sucks and everything he has done is stevestojan
it will make it much easier to determine which threads and posts to read, and which ones to ignore.
thanks for your cooperation.
I don't see what this has to do with loving TD or not. Just the facts baby.....

Schobel's sack numbers are very misleading. He picked up several against weak opponents and virtually NONE when it counted against good teams or good tackles. Sure he was overpaid, but the really BIG mistake would be to give Pat Williams big money at his age. At least Schobel is younger.
Sign Jennings, say thanks and goodbye to big Pat. I'm sure he can still play but you can't keep everybody under the cap and he wants big money.
New England has made many cuts of older players who were ready to be overpaid and they didn't overpay! It is the proper way to succeed in today's NFL imho.
If this is true , then every guy who gets double digit sacks falls into your same convenient forced statistical category.

No they're not. And solid organizations spend high draft picks on them on a regular basis. Past Super Bowl caliber teams like New England, Tampa Bay, Carolina, and Baltimore know this quite well. You draft a solid defensive lineman in the first round and you lock him up for 5-6 years at a palatable rookie figure. That's why instead of drafting Lee Evans in a draft filled with WR talent, I feel we should have gone after Will Smith or Udeze. They are as good if not better than Schobel and can be had for much, much cheaper.
This post is total BS, opinion or not. You have no idea if Smith or Udeze are even 1/2 as good as AS because AS is the only one with ANY track record in the NFL. AS has improved each season (see above info) and certainly would have gone (as is ALWAYS the case) for more $ on the open market.

Umm Schobel is overrated. Plain and simple. He's an average player at best. His sacks are due more to solid coverage than anything else. He's a good player, no doubt. A $28 million player? No way. For my money, I'd rather extend Pat Williams who while older, still wreaks havock in the middle of that defensive line.
And what exactly do you think the going rate for a slightly above average DE will be in 2008-2009 ?
I think 5 mil per year looks like a pretty resonable deal. I'd bet you he'd have gotten atleast 1.5 x that amount on the open market.

My early impression is that you like comedy in your daily sports read. Hopefully you don't obtain your "facts" from the same places....

I agree NYC, the Anchor Bar is no hype factory.... Thems' the best damn wings in the world right there. :-)

They Aired it late last night on ESPN 2. It was a pretty cool perspective on these young guys. Some good clips of JP...

Another 500 catches and some serious playoff stats would probably do it. He would really have to stop having those every other year injuries.
-
Is anyone remembering that we beat the living stevestojan out of them last season with one hand tied behind our back (they took away our running game and the infamous fake punt call.) and basically the same two teams? In THEIR Stadium. Just a thought....

Burns was a very good Special teamer last season on coverage units....That is probably the reason along with his backup FB option.

Oh I know.. I think I remember reading that thread in which it was suggested to you. I guess I'm responding as much to those who would advise you to complain in person as I am to you.
