  1. 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.
  2. In that case, I guess Nolan Nawrocki is the best, most knowledgeable analyst out there. Today.
  3. Good thing he's "buds" with the mods, otherwise he would've been banned by now for crusading, as clearly outlined in the TOS.
  4. The games will be sold out with Trent under center opening day.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. Trent Edwards is your starting Bills QB. The coaching staff clearly expressed confidence in him by not drafting his replacement.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. Not sure what your point is. Clausen has 9" hands. 9.5" is the same as Bradford, bigger than McCoy and Skelton.
  12. 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.
  13. Well if you believe Nolan Nawrocki (and you should), Saffold is ready to come out and start at LT as a rookie.
  14. Biggest "douche" move: coming back on an internet message board bragging "Told You So!"
  15. 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.
  16. Great pick. They had their choice of LT, QB, DT, OLB, and they took the best player available. That's the way you get better. Expect Lynch to be moved, and we'll fill needs where the talent meets draft position. Don't worry, about 9 more picks (after trade) to be added. Nix will find PLAYERS
  17. Who said anything about voluntary workouts? Maybe the reports saying he wouldn't mind getting moved out of Buffalo give a little insight on his happiness meter.
  18. 15 minutes per pick in the 1st round I thought? That means 9:30 - 9:45. EDIT: Just saw the other thread - 10 minutes it is, so 8:50 - 9:00.
  19. I think you're reading a little too much into it. They don't HAVE to do anything with a player who has 3 years remaining on his rookie contract. And while he may not be the happiest camper, he will still show up and play if he wants to get paid.
  20. Since when is blowing a .15 barely over the legal limit?! Try telling that to the officer or judge as they lock you up
  21. They more than likely won't be going LT, so anything is possible. QB, Spiller, Williams, Morgan, etc.
