Didn't mean to type in bold, was typing on my cell. Wasn't trying to offend if taken as such, it's not like used caps.

Holmes and his drops have been an issue and that's unfortunate. I was never really high on him but I do hold hope for Streater and Shorts. Really think these kids crack the roster.

Not sleeping, but I'll admit I'm nodding off a little bit. Humber doesn't inspire any confidence but hopefully he proves me wrong.

Ask Jets fans what a rebuild looks like.

He would I think actually be a good WR with TT as the QB. Stevie would always get open the longer the play took to develop due to his improvisation. TT always finds someone open when a play breaks down from holding the ball too long and scrambling. Might be a blessing in disguise. Obviously wont happen though.

Levitre 6yr/ 46.8 mil, was he worth it? Never made a Pro Bowl while in Buffalo. Byrd 6yr/ 56 mil, was he worth it? I don't even have to go into this one, enough said. Hogan 3yr/ 12 mil, was he worth it? Number 3 WR at best, pedestrian numbers, nice guy though. Gilmore 5 yr/ 65 mil, was he worth it? Debatable, not justified from looking at his tenure in Buffalo. Mike G. 2yr/ 6.4 mil, was he worth it? Debatable, not a starter here and maybe not a starter there either. Solid back up LT? According to the Buffalo News, police responded and found Kouandjio, wearing a T-shirt and underwear but no pants. He had parked his vehicle alongside a nearby highway that had been closed for hours due to a serious wreck. "He was acting real confused, but he was no threat," a police source told the News at the time. Kouandjio was not arrested in connection with the incident. I'll pass on that "solid" back up. Let's just agree to disagree, signed McRuss.

I'll give you TD Mike as that was the biggest Front Office blunder. He should have been retained not only because he proved his worth but to also prevent him from going to NE. Gilmore? Would have liked to retain him but he was not worth that contract given compared to what he showed on the field during his time in Buffalo. He may very well live up to it in NE but it was not justified here. I'm not fond of players who show up when they feel like it or when they're challenged, and that was Gilmore. Woods? 8 mil a year for a 2/3 WR? No, case closed. No doubt a very nice compliment receiver when he sees his share of targets. Z. Brown? Nice player but looking for the big payday that never came his way. I'm sure he had a comparable offer from Buffalo, but all things being equal and a chance to play closer to home? Bye Buffalo! Kujo? No loss. Headcase that can only play LT competently because of a knee injury. Personally I like the direction McD has plotted. No bandaids, no quick fixes, no retreads. There's a good amount of talent on this team but not enough for a ring and he knows that. His building this team as if it was 2-14 with long term success in mind. Heck, I've waited this long!

Road games against the Jets are the worse.

Same record as the Browns. NICE!!!!!

I'm not upset he left. I'm not surprised he got the mega deal he expected. I am surprised he got that offer from the Pats before they took care of their own DB (Butler) who I feel is a better player than Gilmore. You can't help but think Belicheck knows that Gilmore would excel on better team as did Hogan. But I don't understand why they placed more value on Gilmore than Butler. Nobody would be talking about their fourth SB win if not for Butler. Not Brady, Butler.

------------------He would get flagged for unsportsmanlike every time a DB tried to tackle him. It would just not be fair, but fun to watch for sure.

Don't mind seeing a drop in run production if it means an increase in pass production. Imagine how much more effective the run game would be if teams feared TT's passing abilities.

I've never wished prosperity on any AFCE division rival. Heck, I even disliked the Colts when they were in the division.

OK, just for accuracy. At the time of retirement over a 15 year career Reed was 4th in Rec Yards, 6th in Rec TDs, 3rd in Receptions.

I'm sure it will set record book sales............... In Boston

------------------- Well then, read it again. The Nazi comment was in response to my post, not part of my post.

I never called anybody anything. Read my post.

Noob? LOL, just cause I'm new HERE doesn't necessarily make me a noob. Can't tell if your praise for Brant was sarcasm or not. But, anyone who doesn't know Bennett is not in the Hall or thinks Reed doesn't belong in the Top 45 WRs can't be too credible a source. JMO

I understand that this is just one persons opinion but you would think that someone who is compensated for his sports acumen have a little something called "knowledge". Here's his list of the 45 greatest LB's. http://www.nfl.com/photoessays/0ap3000000816217/gil-brandts-greatest-nfl-linebackers-of-alltime Scroll down to #23 where you will find our beloved Biscuit. I have no problem with the ranking as it seems about right but see if you notice the discrepancy listed. Also in his list of 45 greatest WR's of all time he omits HOF'er Andre Reed. I realize that I'm a Bills homer but I honestly can't think of 15-20 WR's before I get to Reed. Thoughts? Discuss.

-------------Preston isn't going anywhere. He's a natural 4-3 player on a rookie contract. He may not be retained, but he's not getting cut. As far as surprise? How about Tolbert and Wood.

Ragland undoubtedly is the better athlete. Both will see playing time obviously. To what extent scheme will play, who knows? Football is football, you can either play or you can't. I do believe Ragland will have an easier time adjusting to a 4-3 than Brown did fitting into a 3-4. Preston is rather slow, but smart.
