  1. Good stuff. What are your thoughts on Calloway? He was rated pretty high to go in the 7th (#12 tackle according to Nawrocki, just behind #11 Tony Washington who some folks seem to want to bring in here, and ahead of #22 Ed Wang). Nawrocki had him as a 4th round value, so pretty good pick there if you ask me, even with moving him inside.
  2. Old news and a misleading thread title. No matter the link provided, it does not quote Lynch stating he wants out of Buffalo. Ans as Nix said, not his choice anyway.
  3. Word. The insulting part is not that it isn't true, we all know it is, but it was irrelevant in this case. Thus, going out of his way to rub our noses in it. If Adams is choosing between Buffalo and Chicago, as reported, then Schefter just comes off as another ESPN analyst with an axe to grind. JMO.
  4. Then again, maybe they just want to take a break for 3 hours a week and just enjoy a football game.
  5. Look it up on google. The impression he left coming out of those interviews is that he doesn't seem to realize that what he did was even wrong. "It's pretty common where I come from" is his response. I can see the editorials now when he tells the media in his new teams community that zinger.
  6. Uh, I think in your own words you agreed that the Bills should sign Tony Washington. If it's not desperation after 10 years of futility to now try to win at all costs, then why you want a sister !@#$er on your team is beyond me. Some teen "mistake." Those crazy kids. I can see the conversations in living rooms across Buffalo now as parents try to explain what incest is and why we have a registered sex offender playing for our Bills.
  7. I have read his story, and while he may be trying to get his act together, it's troubling that he doesn't realize that what he did is even wrong. He said in team interviews at the combine something to the effect that it's common where he comes from
  8. Wow. I realize a decade of futility can cause some desperation, but selling your soul to the devil? Fortunately I don't think Nix will.
  9. You know, Schefter really seems to be going out of his way to insult Bills fans (recall the comments during the Cowher chase). He is challenging Mort for #1 douche over at ESPN.
  10. In that case, I guess Nolan Nawrocki is the best, most knowledgeable analyst out there. Today.
  11. Good thing he's "buds" with the mods, otherwise he would've been banned by now for crusading, as clearly outlined in the TOS.
  12. The games will be sold out with Trent under center opening day.
  13. C'mon man. That's like saying Levi Brown dropped to them and they passed 7 times. We'll never truly know how Nix and the scouts and coaches felt about Campbell. I believe the Raiders crushed them when they selected him right before our pick. Then again, maybe they had Wang targeted in the 5th all along. In that case, I do question waiting until the 5th round to address OL on this team.
  14. Or, they could have made the mistake of waiting for Campbell to drop to them. Ooops. Then, they wouldn't have had to go after the #22 ranked Tackle in the 5th, and could've selected Skelton. And if not Skelton, even Easley in the 5th. Look, I understand fans want to see no wrong in their drafts, but they shat the bed in 4th and 5th rounds. That doesn't make it a bad draft, but the perfectionist in me wanted to see it be better.
  15. His grade sounds about right to me. I like the first three picks, but Troup and Carrington were a bit of a reach. Still, I have no problems with the draft to that point. The 4th round is where this draft became unhinged in my opinion. I think the Raiders broke their hearts when they stole Bruce Campbell out from under us. How do they respond? By quickly grabbing a WR that probably would've been there in the 7th. Regardless of what Nix has said, they needed to come out of this draft with an elite LT prospect. Campbell was the only one who fit that bill come the 4th round. He was the #7 rated Tackle by Nawrocki, Wang was #22. I would've liked to seen more aggressiveness by Nix to make sure he got him. Moving up a few slots in the 4th does not cost much at all. So instead of going LT in the 5th with Wang, they could've grabbed Skelton in the 5th. Which would you rather have: Campbell/Skelton, or Wang/Levi Brown? Be honest. They recovered in the 6th, and finished stong in the 7th. Just replace Brown with Easley. We could've theoretically ended up with Spiller/Troup/Carrington/Campbell/Skelton/Moats/Batten/Easley/Calloway. That's an A plus. So they failed in the middle rounds, had a stong start and finish. C plus sounds about right.
  16. Trent Edwards is your starting Bills QB. The coaching staff clearly expressed confidence in him by not drafting his replacement.
  17. This has to be the most retarded interpretation ever on these boards. WOW. Is that dumb. Edwards will be your starting QB next year. Sorry you didn't get your wish.
  18. Already paid for, so yes, I'm good to go Haven't missed a game in over 2 decades, and am not about to start now.
  19. Not sure what your point is. Clausen has 9" hands. 9.5" is the same as Bradford, bigger than McCoy and Skelton.
  20. Quoted for dexterity. I am so glad this group of deep thinkers do not work for the Bills. Perhaps try to know a little of what you're talking about before you just start immediately bashing. Dumbasses.
  21. Well if you believe Nolan Nawrocki (and you should), Saffold is ready to come out and start at LT as a rookie.
  22. Biggest "douche" move: coming back on an internet message board bragging "Told You So!"
  23. Yes. They said they like Bell at LT, and assuming he comes back from his injury he should be the starter at LT. They said they feel different about their players than some others do, and singled out Bell as an example of one they are really high on. Don't be shocked if they don't address tackle until Saturday, which means Bell is starting opening day.
