I like Adam and he is head and shoulders above the competition, but I don't think the lighting, etc... is his idea. I think it is Idol's way of promoting certain contestants above and beyond their singing ability.
I'd have no problem with Cushing or Matthews at #11 if the DE the Bills want is no longer there.. Ellison is a career backup. We need an impact player at the OLB position.
When have they "loaded up" on the OL in the draft? Both lines have to be addressed in a bad way and since taking a guard or center at #11 would be ridiculous, the smart play is a DE at #11(Brown, Jackson, Orapko or Maybin), OL(guard and center?) with picks 2 and 3, followed by a OLB or TE in round 4.
OL, DL, LB, TE and maybe one day 2 safety? No QB, RB, WR or CB. Ideally I'd like the Bills to trade down at some point in the draft and pick up an extra pick or two, but still focus on the positions listed above.
I agree that he will be gone before the draft if there is no agreement in place for an extension. There is no way the Bills want another situation like last year, which could even be possibly worst this year(Peters doesn't show up until week 10).
I thought the girl with the pink streak in her hair that got voted off the 2nd week(Alexis?) got a raw deal. I don't think she could have won it all, but she was a pretty good singer....and easy on the eyes.
I gave up watching AI live. I DVR the two shows and then skip the songs if they are bad or boring and only listen to Simon & Paula. I continue to be amazed at how she struggles to spit out a sentence or two. Great TV!
They should just cut to the chase and eliminate everyone but Adam, Kris, Allison and maybe Danny and have a 3 or 4 person finale that lasts a month. That being said, Adam should be the runaway winner. The rest of them have made the cut for the AI Tour and should just bow out gracefully. They have no chance.
Cushing's injury history and Matthews off season workouts could be a factor, but I don't know if those would be enough to cause Matthews to pass Cushing.
Somebody wake me up when the NFL opens up the season ticket to all cable providers. Until that time, I will continue to pass on putting a giant wok on the side of my house.
So the ball is on the 2 yard line and the QB runs a naked bootleg and the only way to take him down is by taking a swipe at his lower leg. Is that a penalty?
If the Bills are looking for better players at these two positions than what they have now, it will have to be addressed via a trade or the draft. There is nothing out there in FA to address these positions.
