Constantin Ritzmann Tennessee DE 6-4 265 Ritzmann is a German-born exchange student who only played one season of high school football. He was redshirted in 2002 after tearing his left ACL. Ritzmann is much stronger rushing the passer than he is against the run. He is a raw talent that might be a worthy gamble for an NFL team. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/football/...yers/46992.html http://scout.theinsiders.com/a.z?s=211&p=8&c=1&nid=670247 http://www.nfl.com/draft/profiles/constantin_ritzman http://www.democratandchronicle.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?

He was basically saying for example in 4 wide receiver sets Gilbride would have all of their receivers run an option based on the coverage on them then Bledsoe would have to react to all of the receivers adjusments and know where the reciever was going to be then throw the ball to a receiver. By the time Bledsoe would be able to figure out where to go with the ball he would have held on to the ball to long then get sacked.

I have heard that Jimmy Smith has had a very good camp this year. I have also heard that their offensive line has looked solid Their 2nd & 3rd receivers have not looked good (Reggie Williams & Troy Edwards) Their 3rd string TE Todd Yoder (who they got from Tampa) may start vs the Bills Bryan Leftwich who has had an inconsistant camp/preseason performed well against the Bills in mop up duty against the Bills last season. Fred Taylor has been hurt during the preseason but is expected to be healthy for the opener and could cause problems for the Bills defense Jimmy Smith & Fred Taylor will be key players for the Bills to stop on opening day. The Bills may also throw the ball more than run on opening day due to the Jaguars having the 2nd ranked running defense last season and their lack of pass rush. Perhaps the Bills use 4 wide receeiver sets often to create mismatches.

correction - their 2nd round rookie Daryl Smith will likely start over greg Favors at an outside linebacker position.

Of their projected starters on defense they had a total of 11 sacks in 2003. Aaron Schobal for the Bills had 11.5 by himself Ryan Denney had 3.5 sacks last year which is more than their projected defensive ends and their projected linebackers combined. Their projected DE's had 0. Name sacks position M Stroud 4.5 DT J Henderson 3.5 DT P Spicer 0 DE B Green 0 DE M Peterson 1 MLB A Ayodele 1 WLB G Favors 0 SLB Green is the projected RDE who was a 6th rounder in '03 but was injured all of his rookie season Spicer is the projected LDE who was undrafted in '98. He played in all 16 games & started 1. He appears top be a journeyman DE who probably is better as a backup Favors was on the Bills a few years ago as a backup & eventually was cut by the Bills. That was before the Bills signed Spikes & Posey Although they have some very solid players on their defense, I definately see some weaknesses as a whole that the Bills could exploit. http://www.nfl.com/teams/depthcharts/JAC

Kyle Brady who caught 5 balls for 42 yards against the Bills last season is expected to miss the first 2 regular season games Aug 30, 2004 12:15PM ET Brady sidelined with finger injury THE NEWS Tight end Kyle Brady suffered a tendon injury to the middle finger of his right hand during Friday's preseason game. An examination by a hand specialist Monday revealed that Brady will need hand surgery and be out a minimum of three weeks. OUR VIEW Brady has also been a favorite whipping boy of Jaguars coach Jack Del Rio this training camp, spending time with the second team with George Wrighster and Todd Yoder took reps with the first unit. Between the demotion and the injury, whatever miniscule fantasy value Brady once possessed is rapidly evaporating. http://cbs.sportsline.com/nfl/injuries http://fanball.com/fb/playerProfile.cfm/pid.1067

The guy is a jerk. He is negative about everything in this area. I don't know why he just doesn't move to another city.
