  1. im in the minority, but signing TO would be the best thing the FO coulds possibly do. The 'good guy' 'character guy' act has done nothing for me or the Bills. Inject some piss and vinegar into this team. I am all for this. Maybe we will get one or 2 good years out of him, which gives us a much better chance of watching playoff football. Maybe the environment here would be good for TO and he could settle down with the Bills, who knows?

     

    I want T.O. in a Bills uniform.

     

     

    Amen to that....what is the worst thing that could happen? having to start all over again in 2010....which is likely with or without Terrell.

     

    C'mon our most famous and best player ever sits in a jail cell in Nevada...TO might yell and scream but if we were to start out 5-1 again, TO jerseys would be sold out all over the Niagara Frontier..

  2. Amen to that...the Bills only draft philosophy should be, always take the best big guy over the best little guy....it works over the long haul (with notable exceptions like Big Mike Williams)

     

     

    Put Ngata next to Stroud and you could have a 45 year old Henry Jones playing SS.

     

    Also, instead of drafting Donte Whitner, we could have drafted Haloti Ngata. Don't get me wrong, I like Whitner but we needed a better impact player at DT. It would of saved the wasted pick on McCargo and the wasted FA pick up of Tripplett.
  3. Also, why not use your time outs... if I recall correctly, Miami had a first and goal at the 8 with approximately 1:20 left.and then ran twice before throwing. Since it was likely they would at least get a field goal attempt, we should have callled timeolut after each run. Yet we let the clock march down to fifteen seconds while not using our three timeouts in order to save the time sohuld they score. Maybe Dick was confused that he still had all three timeouts that late in the half and didn't react.

     

    Just another example of poor clock management by the Yale grad.

  4. Just wondering if anyone had any updates? It seems a waste that he wasn't put on IR earlier if he can't come back now. And does anyone find it interesting that Jauron's reasoning for placing Crowell on the IR before the first game was we might need the roster spot but we can carry Schobel and his bum foot around for 8 weeks with no questions asked? Not to mention that Derek Fine could not play for the first five games as well.

  5. Bills trade #12 and 2008 3rd (higher of two picks) to Chicago for Lance Briggs and Chicago's 4th (#130) Trade Value for Chicago is approx. 1250 points or more than what Washington is proposing..

     

    The remaining picks are:

     

    43) Justin Blalock OG Texas

    74) Stewart Bradley LB Nebraska

    92) Tanard Jackson CB/S Syracuse

     

    and for good measure, the Fourth Round

    111) Lorenzo Booker RB Florida State

    130) Michael Bush RB Louisville

  6. Yes let's trade for Michael Turner. I will give up this year's second thrid and next year's third for a guy with 157 carries in the past three years....c'mon now people, Turner is a glorified backup who is to LT what Kenny Davis was to Thurman. Let's concentrate on finding the next Thurman, not Kenny Davis.

     

    Haven't we all been through this before with Rob Johnson....

  7. I have a sneaky suspicion that we sign/re-sign the following FAs- Chris Brown, K. Thomas, I. Scott (DT) and A-Train. Then I think Marv throws us all a curve and trades up with a 1 (#5-1200pts), 2 (#43-470-80 pts), and late 3rd (from Baltimore)(#92-130pts) to Tampa at #4(1800 pts)and the Bills take Calvin Johnson. This leaves Buffalo with the following picks:

     

    4) Calvin Johnson

    74) CB-- Jonathan Wade/ J. Wilson

    107) We look to draft a 3rd Down Meggett type-RB (i.e. Lorenzo Booker from Florida State or Darius Walker- Notre Dame)

    169) Depth (LB/S)

    203) Depth (LB/S)

    223) (from Baltimore) Depth BPA

     

    I know that everyone seems to think that Tampa will automatically take Johnson if he is there, and maybe they will. But a look at Tampa Bay's roster revelas they need more than one player as age is starting to eat away at their once proud defense. This trade gives them a boatload of picks in the first three plus rounds (12, 35, 43, 64, 68, 92, and 100) that can be used to load up on replacements for the likes of Simeon Rice, Derrick Brooks, etc. I also think they have a lot of money/ past picks tied up in WR including Joey Galloway, Michael Clayton (#1-2004) and Maurice Stovall (#2-2006).

     

    I also think that based upon Jauron and Levy's remarks about Crowell moving to MLB and the signings noted above, the Bills could make this move and still have a good LB threesome (I think Ellison will be good in his second year and Spikes can return to a passing resemblance of his pre-Achilles self), depth on the DL (assuming McCargo comes back strong) and ok in the secondary (assuming Youboty develops). I konow that it involves a bit of assumption on the Bills part but the development of 2nd year players such as McCargo and Youboty is needed whether or not we trade up.

     

    I also think they are willing to live with a RB-by-committee for at least this year, especially knowing that they have an extra 3rd next year to move around in what is supposed to be a very good draft for RBs in 2008.

     

    I know it's unlikely but can you see Calvin Johnson on one side and Evans on the other? I think JPs development would prosper immensely.

     

    Just a thought.....

  8. I always expected Crowell to move to middle linebacker when this played out.....

     

    I am concerned that Ellison is not big enough to hold up at outside backer....but he sure did play well last year.

     

     

    Ellison is the same size as Cato June, who was also a 6th round pick at one time. He is big enough and with a 36 on the Wonderlic, smart enough to play. Put Amobi Okoyte in front of him and watch him prosper.

  9. No way the Bills select Levi Brown at 12 or even with a trade down, a review of his combine results show a poor 10, 20, and 40 yard dash splits along with less than stellar marks in the bench, vertical jump and broad jump. In reality, Brown is a 3-4 rounder masquerading as a Top 20 pick becuase he started for Penn State for a long time.

  10. You must really have nothing better to do with your weekend.

     

    It was either that or accompany my wife to my sister in law's house for a family "vacation."

     

    As for the criticism that I am devoting approximately 25% of the cap this year to two guards and a CB, I agree with the premise but note that I would rather give it up to three players who I believe can help me improve than 5-6 free agent role player signings like Peerless Price and Ryan Denney.
