  1. You would be amazed how much better our offensive line would be if we drafted Davis, not because i think he is a good blocker, he is an average blocker, but when the LBs first move is back instead of forward because he has to respect the speed, you play better. in the 3rd, after Davis ha beaten the defense once or twice, and they are forced to add another safety or corner, Willis can run, and if they try to stop the run Davis can dink and dunk them to death.
  2. I was fighting the urge to say the same thing, but I have to agree that a TE might be the best pick
  3. Without question I would bring him in, first since he is older he would be cheaper. We just saved 3.5 million on Adams we can invest half of that and get a better player, yes he is better. I have always loved his play, he is also a positive influence to others, unlike the me first Sam Adams. If you watched the raiders last year, Teddy did his job, his LBs sucked. Paired with Ngata, it could be a dangerous interior, I would resign Edwards just in case. and maybe look to Wroten in the middle rounds. I truly believe that Washington would make Ngata a much better player.
  4. Actually the answer. if we are still postiong about it, and not on some other rant by page 3 is. The Players and coaches along with the league, are holding off on the release of those players. as it stands, those who have been released can be picked up by their old teams, depending on the CBA agreement. It was their way of rewarding those teams that got under the 94 million dollar cap. An Example: if they decide to extend the CBA, and the cap goes to 104ish, then we can just pick up Adams contract where we put it down without a bidding war. of course there will be hurt feelings.
  5. posey and Anderson suck, save your money. thank you for your time
  6. Jets-release Chad, and trade up for Leinart saints-Jay Cutler Tenn-D'Brick-just released Hopkins, kept McNair Houston-Reggie Bush-they wanted D'Brick. Packers-Mario Williams-to team with KGB 49ers-Hawk raiders-Davis-why? the raiders always go with the sexy pick. Buffalo-Ngata-we would be starting Edwards and Anderson otherwise. I might even go DT 1st round and in the 2nd go DT if Bunkley is there or Watson slips. I am hoping that the raiders release Washington and he is willing to come back.
  7. Thank you for the update, I don't mean to sound stupid, it is just a question, is the 12 million after clements Franchise tag numbers?
  8. The vertical jump means more to me, along with the shuttles, so what if you can run straight and fast, how does that translate into Football. Shuttles tell you how he'll stunt. And Vertical tells you how explosive he is off the line. The forty is so un-natural to a lineman.
  9. you would have thought that these people would have just gone away, but today the 25th they plan to march in the parramore area here in Orlando, the area is the the most urban of the city. Why are they marching? Who knows, I am sure they think they have a reason. the sad part is the media attention (which as i think about it, is the reason they are marching) everyone will be there, another interesting part, is the Police are not inspecting for arms (weapons) so many will be carrying (my guess). My wife, who is part of the Media, will be there covering the activity. So if something does happen my wife might be caught in the middle of it. Which is the true reason I wrote this post. I have to work today, and I get to worry about it all day. But if something does happen and you are interested watch the evening news (NBC) you might see some of her work. Since i am sure it will get countrywide coverage. until later Frogger Out!
  10. Since Milloy is a "in the box" safety, he doesn't fit the role of a cover 2. Not that I don't think he could, but he is not that much of a ball hawk and is slow in coverage. I think the money we save cutting him, makes it hard for him to return. One possible FA Dexter Jackson, the safety from the Bucs, FA, has been bouncing around a little, Super bowl MVP, and knows the cover 2, very well. and wouldn't cost us as much as keeping Milloy. I would keep Vincent since there is not much cap saving by letting him go. But I would look to upgrade. And maybe keeping Vincent as a 3d CB. Vincent is great in zone coverage, or he was. I like Bing in the 2nd.-or slay in the 3rd or 4th
  11. we almost said the same thing about mike Williams, he's still young, give him time. Forget that! I don't think we can give them time anymore. If we can get Bentley, who imho, is the best young center in the NFL, you must get him. If Healthy, he is a pro bowler every year. Is athletic enough to get to the 2nd level, and nasty as hell. I don't want to lose QBs and RBs while Duke is trying to reach potential. One thing I learned last year, is JP can be dangerous if given time, he has a pretty deep ball, and in time will hit the short targets. But he needs to see the field. We have short WR (evan, Parrish, Reed) so it's even more important that he has the time.
  12. they were too busy training, talking to LeCharles Bentley (to bring him here) and saving babies to be there for Marv's calls. It happens
  13. 1st, what would you rather have, 5 million in the bank to spend on no one or have 2-3 million and have a player that was our best WR last year. not a huge difference between saving 5 million and saving 2-3 million, when you are talking in the 20 millions. Regardless keep Moulds, he is a leader, yes he complains, some leaders do that. He is still the face of the bills to me. Marv loves him, and there are no replacements out there, that we can ensure will sign with us Restructuring Schobel? Did you think his Pro bowl type season wasn't good enough, compared to what we are paying other players on this team he is a steal. I'd sign his brother as a bonus to him. While I would have to agree about Fletcher, I think we can extend his contract.
  14. I think he'll have other options, and I believe that marv and dick have made it clear that they want Moulds here next year. While he would be a great addition, Seattle won't let him go, assuming they have enough to spend on him after Hutch, and adding a RB via Free agency. But I imagine other teams like the colts will show interest. And if I had to pick between the colt and the Bills right now. I think I'd take the colts. Buffalo's QB situation will make it tough to bring in top flight FAs. I believe we'll be lucky to get any top Free agents. and if we do, we'll overpay for them. If Lecharles Bentley makes it past the tag, and we are interested in him at all, we better jump on him quickly and throw some major cash at him. 1 great FA with many average would be fine with me. We also have to look at Free agents as rookies and see their potential, i. e. Matt Schobel-who coming out of college was one of the quicker TEs, and who has good hands. I don't believe that Cinci has used him to his full potential, and we can play the relative card. Anything to make us better. But if we improve next year it is going to have to be from the draft.
  15. correct me if I am wrong, but don't the falcons run a zone blocking scheme? and it's not like he is blocking Bledsoes blind side. Kevin Shaffer was the left tackle for a left handed QB right, and a team that ran the ball, alot. not saying I wouldn't consider him, just not that high on my list. I'd put Bentley tops on my list
  16. We do this every year... Nate doesn't want to be here, don't resign him, He wants money, don't resign him, why can't nate just pay for the love of the game and Buffalo? Add to that, how overpaid players are. et cetera. If we resign him that is great, franny him, fine. Whatever makes us better. I have no emotional attachment to Nate. I think he can turn it on when he wants to.
  17. I guess my question to you is, would you rather have a proven interior lineman, or a Proven CB. While I believe we can win without a shut down corner (not sure if Clements really is a shut down corner, he did however pretty much shut down after week 5) However i feel that we can't win without addressing the OL. Bentley after Hutch is the best lineman availible, he might cost less than 5 million a year, and we could sign a better than average corner in Brian Williams. Or really worse case, move Vincent back to corner. If we are going into a cover 2, he will be less likely to give up big plays.
  18. You inspired me, well after responding to your post, I figured I'd better come up with one myself, or I'd be like everyone else on the board that will talk crap about others post but never put an ideas out there. It's all fantasy world anyways. I meant no disrespect...yo while I am at it. Green Bay is very weak in the 2ndary, harris is there only true starter, Carroll has been a yellow flag magnet, I've seen mocks where they draft Jimmy Williams with the fifth pick. In my fantasy world, they would be willing to move down 3 spots and give up a 2nd rounder for a first round talent. they still can get a good player at 8, but not Mario Williams. I feel Williams is that good. and it's more realistic that assuming we'll get a first rounder and yes Peerless Price, he would be cheap, and increase the odds of Moulds extending. He is still fast and I feel he just needs another shot, if he signs a 1 year deal for 900,000, would it be so bad? He would be more productive than Aikens and Smith. I'd keep Josh reed for a simple reason, I'd get rid of Shaud Williams, and make Josh Reed take back number 25, and make him a 3rd down back. he is a better blocker than Williams, and has great hands/route runner for a RB. He has played the position before-see college days-while I know its not the same, I don't expect him to run the ball, but if he has to he can, he is the ideal third down back. I am not sure why MM didn't think of it first. Frogger out
  19. Start:6.47 million under release: Posey, Mike Williams, Anderson, Wire, Milloy (I was wrong, it was 2.5 million saved if released) shelton and Campbell. +12,419,778 cap room. Ext-Moulds and fletcher-possible saving about 5 million so about 24 million under at this point. resign all of our middle of the road players and role players. But give jason Peters a 4 year deal -combined around 6 million total 18 million remaining Franchise Clements, and look to trade-since Patrick Surtain got a 2nd round pick, I think that is what we'll get for clements, Green bay needs a CB, so trade 1st round picks and get there 2nd on top of that. So we now move up to number 5 and get there 2nd rounder. Green Bay gets a starter at CB and only moves back 3 spots, I might throw in a 4th or later to sweeten the deal, but in this dream, no. sign-Lecharles Bentley C, Ted washington (if released) Matt Schobel TE, Brian Williams CB, Peerless Price WR, LJ Shelton RT, Ron Dayne RB and Maake Kemoeatu DT cost about 10-12 million million Draft 1-Mario Williams DE-Starter at LE 2a-Greg Blue SS-could start as a rookie, if not there is Baker. 2b-Jon Scott-Could start at RT or back up LJ Shelton. 3a-A.J. Nicholson-had off the field issues, 1st round talent 3b-Dee Webb-good cover guy, young talent, not expected to start. 4-Garrett Mills-pass catching FB 5-Tim Jennings-CB insurance 6-Todd Watkins-fast WR and 6'3" 7-Justin Blalock-did you know he declared, could be a guard, and since texas killed us with Williams, I figure 1 out of three. QB-Holcomb and JP losman RB-McGahee and Dayne FB Mills TE Schobel, Everett, Euhus LT Jason Peters LG-Mike Gandy Center-bentley RG-Villarrial or Preston RT- Shelton or Scott WR-Moulds, Evans, Reed, Price, Watkins and Parrish (move Reed to 3rd down back?) LE-Williams DT Adams DTWashington RE Schobel LB Spikes ILB Fletcher LB Crowell or Nicholson CB McGee CB Williams with Dee Webb, Jennings and King FS Vincent or Baker SS Baker or Blue not great, but not bad
  20. Once again, I do not like McNeil, I feel he looks the part, but drafting him would be a mistake better left to Dallas or another team. We are keeping 2 TE and 6 WR, okay, no. Count Smith gone. We are really in need for a proven TE, Everett has not seen the field, and Euhus has not proven to be NFL ready. How about Matt Schobel-worse case he's the 2nd TE, but at least we would have a healthy TE. Wilkinson is a day 1 pick. Dropping vincent and Lawyer saves us 1.6 million (I think) but we have a lot of dead money, I'd rather keep them, I can't see starting a Rookie at CB. We still have no idea of how long it's going to take Spikes to fully recover, so I believe that we need to address the LB spot on the first day. I also don't like Brock, i feel he is undersized and is weak against the run. What I'd rather do is draft Mario Williams (after my smear campaign) and sign Grady Jackson and a released Washington to create a solid 4 man rotation.
  21. What I didn't like about it, was why not try to extend Moulds, and London Fletcher saving about the same amount of money. Plus cutting Posey and addressing the olb in free agency or the draft. i think Stamer is a better LB as well. Otherwise I'd be very happy with that offseason. I Like Mario Williams, combined with Schobel, they could create a Carolina type line.
  22. You are fooling yourself if you believe she has a chance at being president. there is no way a southern GOPer is going to vote for a black woman.
  23. I hope you are kidding, sam Adams has one of the fastest first steps in the NFL, numbers 2 and 3 are not so fast but when he is Healthy he gets off the ball faster than any DT in the NFL. Also our defense is a defense that requires large DT, and DJ's (at least in Chi) is the same. From what I understand Adams and Washington are friends and teddy would help motivate Adams, Speed on the outside and power up the middle. if you stop the inside run, and bounce the ball outside, good tacklers can make plays (which is why Posey needs to go) I agree that on passing downs an inside rusher would be helpfull, hopefully Edwards can return, not sure if anyone remembers his 40 time out of college-I believe it was around 4.7-but that was 40 pounds ago. One possible middle rounder is Wroten, who was arrested for pot, shortly after the bowl game. So like Hawthorne did last year he should fall, and hopefully we can get him in the 4th otr 5th.
  24. his hair! Notice david carr has long hair too?
