Willis, JP and the #8 for the #2....hee hee.....JP goes back to his college town to be a back-up; Willis gets to play in a dome and live in warm weather; NO still gets a top 10 pick to upgrade one of the lines...and we get Reggie...hee hee ;-) No one can offer NO three first rounders for Reggie Bush...

Spent most of my day in the car..listening to ESPN radio...Cowherd says.. I tried to explain watching the draft to my wife....and she came back with.....so you watch 13 hours of men evaluating other men and picking one every 15 minutes or so...hmmmmmm....I guess its an acquired taste... I feel like its Christmas eve....

Just going by what their beat writer for the New Orleans T-P said on ESPN Radio today--they had narrowed the board to Brick and Williams...but Hawk would be a good fit as well.

This probably makes the trade to get us back in the first round at the Bears pick...we package the pick we get in this transaction with our second and voila-- we move up....This could be really interesting....

Exactly...NO will get a few offers...but if they get a high second and the 4th pick they still get who they want (Brick) and pick up a second..what a stroke of luck for NO.... HOU Mario Jets Reggie Titans Young NO Brick Pack Hawk 9ers Davis Raiders Huff Bills (Trade down with Cards or Rams--whoever wants Leinert more) Lions ? We still end up with Ngata plus probably pick up a 3rd...

Next on NFL Network---NFL Extreme Home Makeover starring Reggie Bush and Family... Thoughtful questions for Marc Ross....jeeeesh...

Ribbet ribbet......he's a big fan of Kermit

"Failed his baseline test....." also failed to identify himself in the mirror also failed in re-entry from his mission to Pluto

Great photos! Congrats to you and your son. Were you trying to make Turkey Jerky???

How can anyone get pissed in the land of the Grand Slam??? Working on a laptop..hmmmmm...maybe Manning and crew wanted him to surf porn sites and the guy refused... Or My guess is someone asked him if he was related to Peyton or Eli...and he said--no I have actually made it to a Super Bowl..things went bad from there...

We were a .500 team last year in Games that Holcomb started. Even Mediocre QBing without Takeo made this team average. I hope that either Losman or Nall -- both of whom may have more natural skills than Holcomb--can translate that into on the field performance (ie somehow find Kelly Holcomb's brain and put it in their head). I question letting Milloy and Adams go because their cap figures weren't that high and they created holes that had to be filled..we filled Milloy's with Matt Bowen (who?) and we filled Adams' with noone yet...I would feel a lot better about this team in the short term if we gave up one of the third's for Dwight Smith and maybe the 6th for Hollis Thomas this week and then signed Tutan Reyes...that way we are less dependent on the draft. We have the money to do this..Smith and Reyes are young enough to justify these moves. If we draft for immediate starters I don't think it will be a draft we will look at in three years and be pleased.

I love that the 2 top class of 07 receivers are also in town this weekend for the spring game. I also love that Clausen will be a January entrant.... Charlie has both Bob and Mike Golic as celebrity coaches in addition to Bettis and the Rocket this weekend. He was on Mike and Mike yesterday. He is the best thing since Ara -- maybe Rockne...(okay, I know...way overboard....)

Yep...the for sale sign just went up on the #8 Pick...thanks for advertising it for us Pete. The fix is in if Lenny P and Carruci mention it as well.

I am really getting into the spirit of the draft this year...so for the first time ever--I want to produce a mock draft. I know I will embarrass myself with my lack of knowledge but here goes 1) J. Christ- QB- Heaven--great arm, avoids the rush. Hates to be crucified by the fans. Just when you think you have him beat--he rises up and kicks ass. 2) O. Winfrey-NT - Spellman College-Has problems with weight management but can annoy the crap out of the opponent. Fills running lanes with annoying sound. 3A) B. Bob-SS-Baghdad U-talks a great game--can get anyone to believe anything. Awesome positive motivational force in the locker room. 3B) M. Stewart - LB - Alderson Prison-Tough as nails. Sideline to sideline roamer. Trains by running in shackles. Makes the field and locker room look tasteful but never pretentious. 4) J Wayne-OT - 90210--the baddest bastard on the face of God's earth...just try and get around him and get a bullet in the back. 5) E. Presley-CB/no--LB/no--DT-Graceland-Smooth hip movement. Babe magnet -- media guide cover boy. Just keep the stock of peanut butter and bananas up. 6) C. Weis-Notre Dame-Get us a damn real coach. :-) 7 A and 7B) Charlize Theron and Angelina Jolie--General Manager's privilege What a freaking waste of 5 minutes...

Is he "couldn't spell Cat if you spotted him the C and the T" dumb? Living in the heart of ACC country--our local basketball schools who masquerade as trying to play football each fall--always had a chance against the usually untouchable Seminoles when this guy trotted out on the field. The guy belongs in the arena league where he doesn't have to read defenses...

Followed by: Marv had the chicken special for lunch...

I kind of split the middle between you two. Ralph probably is meddlesome, but I am not sure any of us would be that much different if we owned the team. Marv is probably the only person in the world (other than Jeff Littman) who not only tolerates Ralph's meddling ways but welcomes his input...Does that mean Marv will fail and the Bills will fail...well that's why they play the game...but I wouldn't bet against Marv Levy.....(Marv Apologist = JoeF)

John, explain to me again why you guys signed Bennie Anderson...

I would pay huge money to be in the room when Russert starts to nail Tags with quotes from previous speeches and interviews....damn.... Russert: But on September 20th, 1994 you said the Bills were the most vital and entertaining franchise in the league.... Tags: (inaudible gurgle.....drool on chin....deer in headlights/John Edwards first appearance on MTP look.)

Re-acquire Bledsoe..... :-) They would owe us 500 points to get to number 8 from 18 according to the draft value board.... Draft Pick Value They have Pick #49 (17th of the second round) which is 410 points and pick 80 (#16) is worth 190. We send them #104 (our fourth rounder) to even out the deal. They do not have a fourth rounder--which would have made the deal cleaner but..we'll take their third and give them our fourth. So they get #8 and #104 We get #18, #49, #80 Our picks in the first three rounds will be....#18, #42, #49, #70, #73, #80...6 picks in the top 100....that's a lot of building for the future...or a good possibility to package two of the thirds to get another pick in the second...

No but we did re-sign football's version of the product of a Stevie Wonder/and retired pro wrestler Ronnie Garvin marriage to compete for the #2 WR job.

They forced the firing of a hotel conceirge who muttered something about "having a nice day" as they walked past.

Clump...thanks as always...any thought on what our rookie allocation will have to be? Seems like we have room for at least 3 more guys in Free Agency/Trade even with the Rookie Allocation. This also obviously includes Clements' Franchise number..I am lost when people say Ralph can't afford the $12-15M signing bonus that a long term deal will require..we are already paying him $7.3 Million this year--what's another $5 or $6 Million to get to the proper bonus and get a long term deal done. It would probably reduce this year's cap hit....

Don't go all Dick Vermeil on us man... Not being the expert most are on the draft..I can't judge Davis' talent..but he certainly looks like a player...We need another game changer on offense and it seems he would fit the part. I will give you one big reason why I think adding Davis would ignite the offense...none of our receivers immediately jump off the page as guys you have to double on the outside. They can beat man coverage every so often but I just don't think Evans is quite there yet as a guy you double consistently. Having Davis running down the seam is a threat to which the opposing D has to be attentive. It takes some of the pressure off the wideouts and may help open the middle a bit for the run...The only question I have is if Everett gives us the same thing if he is healthy.. I am more concerned about the interior OL than the Tackles..I know that might be silly--but we have gotten manhandled in the middle more than anything in the run game the last 6 years..I think we can get a starting gaurd in Round 2 or 3 who you can plug in right away..(Giles, Joseph, Spencer, one of the two USC guys)..even if we go OT in round 1 I am not sure that guy starts right away--there just are not many guys capable of making the leap at Tackle to immediate NFL Starter.

I would make this deal with the Vikes....it comes out about even... Vikes get #8 and #70, #105 Bills get #17, #48 and #51 Value board says...they owe us 450 points for the move to #8 They give us 360 ponts above the 450 with the two second rounders We give them 240 back with the third rounder and 84 with the 105 pick...the 40 point premium is rounding error for them to get Cutler. We end up with 5 picks in the top 73...#17, #41, #48, #51, #73 in a deep draft... I want both their seconds to make this deal....
