Honestly, and I might be in the minority, but I believe DT is a bigger need than DE. With Schobel coming back, I feel Kelsay/Denney/Ellis are fine. However, on the other side of Stroud we have Kyle "Blah" Williams, Spencer "Who?" Johnson, and John "I can't even get being traded right!" McCargo. Personally, I think Maybin is becoming ridiculously overhyped. He only played 2 years and was only decent one of them. He's vastly undersized and physically unready.

Seriously, all of you who are saying we should get two firsts for Peters are crazy. Nobody gives up two firsts in an upcoming draft. Why do you think no one has made a move on Julius Peppers? And even his compensation is a 1st this year and a 1st next year. If he's not going to sign and possibly hold out again, you have to trade him. I would look for a 1st and a mid-late round pick. This years draft is deep with starting quality OT's (Jason Smith, Eugene Monroe, Michael Oehr, Andre Smith). One of them would be there at 11. Then you could use that 2nd 1st on a LB, S, DE, or DT.

I wonder why they have Owens number as "1" on the jersey pre-sale page then? Also, if they had a jersey made, they missed the primo, cliche "holding up the jersey" photo op for nothing

http://www.stadiumwall.com/index.php?showtopic=84959 He's also doing Buffalo radio.

T.O. on the radio By Chris Brown - Posted March 11th, 2009 Bills WR Terrell Owens will be making a few radio appearances in the next 24 hours. His first will be on the FAN 590 AM in Toronto at 2:05pm eastern time this afternoon. He’ll also be on 103.3 FM The Edge at 5pm with Shredd and Ragan, and on the Bills flagship station 97 Rock Thursday morning at 7:45am. So everyone flipping out about him being on Toronto radio needn't worry.

Ha we also signed Lavernaues Coles I say delete.

Really? Because they aren't even talking about it as a possibility on finheaven.com I don't know what you heard or from who, but it doesn't look like it's even a rumor at this point.

Well, last I heard, we (reportedly) put an offer on the table for Peters a couple weeks ago. The fact that we haven't heard anything about it since is VERY discouraging. I want Peters here manning our LT spot. But if he's going to B word or holdout again, then you have to find a trade partner. I say that if we haven't made a new offer to him to please him, we should do it. If he turns it down, trade him. But don't give the guy away.

Link? I don't see anything on rotoworld or even Profootballtalk regarding even a visit or rumor.

Good. He's predominately a MLB, which would have put him in a system he'd have to make a lot of adjustments in (or Poz would have had to switch). Freddy Kaiho and Cato June are better options IMO

Last year, before the season started, I bought an "authentic" James Hardy #81 throwback jersey off of eBay. I say "authentic" because it's stitched and you wouldn't be able to tell otherwise, but it's bootleg. Now that T.O. is a Bill, I GUARANTEE you, there's no way Hardy will be #81. So now I need to find a way to alter it. But I want the exact font and red/white style lettering. I also want a Bills 50th Anniversary patch. But the Bills website won't sell the patch seperately. 1.) Is anyone in the same boat as me with a James Hardy jersey? 2.) Does anyone know where I can find a lettering kit/exact patches? If not, does anyone know of a place that does jersey altering?

Actually, we need both. Our passing game was absolutely stagnant with the WR's we have on our roster right now and that was with a healthy James Hardy. He's going to be coming off a messed up knee. I think there's still some WR's on the market that would be an upgrade: Marvin Harrison - Older, but still has some game in him and will most likely play with something to prove. Jerry Porter - The same age as Coles. Would be a solid #2. Reggie Williams - Same age as Lee, would be a great compliment. Amani Toomer - Older and arguably has more game in him than Marvin. If we can swing a deal for Scheffler, we can probably get by with what we have out WR. But since we're most likely drafting a TE (that could boom or bust), we'll need another weapon.

Aw f-ck!

The way I see it, we're most likely going to spend a 2nd on the best available TE. Be it Jared Cook, Shawn Nelson, or Chase Coffman. I don't see us taking Pettigrew unless we trade down because it's a deep draft at TE, #11 would be a HUGE reach, and he's got character issues. So throw a 3rd there way and see if that flies. If not, try a 2nd. We're going to spend it on an unproven TE anyways.

Calm down? Calm down?! I'm standing here with my GAWK in my hand!

per rotoworld.com Why haven't we attempted to bring in a Safety yet? Phillips and Sean Jones are both young(ish) and on the market. Both would be tremendous upgrades over what we have. There were reports that we were interested in Phillips. With Bryan Scott getting up there in age (and average at best), Ko Simpson being "worth millions" (and sucking), and us (reportedly) moving Whitner to FS; we need someone. And nothing? *growl*

God, can we just close this thread? It's existence pisses me off. Let's all wait until we find out what he pleads and what the verdict is before we run him out of town. Certainly, if I were the Bills i'd let him know that he has two strikes. But get rid of him? F-ck that!

There were many projecting him to go to us at #11. That talk has all but disappeared by most experts. And yes, I did expect him to run a a 4.6, at least a 4.7. Anyone who projected him to run as slow as he did is lying. Might he still be the 1st TE taken and a mid-late 1st Rounder? Yeah, it's a definite possibility. But picked at #11 and in the top 5 players on our board? Hell no! I realize my belief that Jared Cook is going to leapfrog him probably places me in the minority. But that's my take and i'm sticking to it. Staranger things have happened. Who saw Donnie Avery being the first WR taken last year?

If you think that him running the 2nd slowest time among ALL of the TE's at the combine didn't hurt him; you're just downright delusional! ESPN.com - http://myespn.go.com/blogs/afcnorth/0-2-12...FL-combine.html "Oklahoma State tight end Brandon Pettigrew ran unofficial times of 4.85 and 4.97 in the 40-yard dash this weekend. He even was granted a third run and clocked a 4.87. None of Pettigrew's times landed in the top 10 of his position, which is disappointing for the projected best tight end in the draft. Pettigrew looked nervous and had false starts twice during his runs, He is a mid-to-late first-round pick and potentially a target of the Baltimore Ravens at No. 26." Also from ESPN.com: "Several tight ends outperform Pettigrew" - http://myespn.go.com/blogs/afceast/0-5-98/...-Pettigrew.html

That's a bit off, in my opinion. 1.) I think that's a bit high for B.J. Raiji. He is the #1 available DT, but I don't think he should be #3 on our board. Especially since he's a 3-4 DT and we play the 4-3. 2.) Your DE's are WAY off. Everette Brown is considered by many to be the best DE in the draft and best pass rush specialist and he's not even on your list. Aaron Maybin might have ran a slower than expected 40, but he's still the 3rd or 4th best DE (especially with his versatility). Tyson Jackson is screaming up the charts after his Combine. Sorry, but Ayers and Balwin have no business before them and are WAY to high on your list. 3.) Brandon Pettigrew's stock is dropping and dropping fast. His combine showing was very lackluster. He ran a 4.85 40 (slower than some OL). Taking him at #11 was a reach before the combine. Now it would be just downright dumb. Some are saying he might even fall out of Round 1. After running a 4.5 40, jumping an amazing 41" vertical, and catching everything thrown at him smoothly; i'd venture to say Jared Cook will be the #1 TE taken this draft. 4.) Where's Jeremy Maclin? He probably won't be there at our pick, but he's gotta be high on our list.

Yes, ha indeed. Does anyone know if the compensation we'd have to give up for an RFA applys to this years draft or next? If we have to give up picks in next year's draft vs. this years, I think it would make a huge difference.

I think if we don't have a shot at Brown, we'll draft someone on Day 1 or Early Day 2. Matt Birk and Jeff Saturday would only be decent for the very short term with Birk heading into his 12th season and Saturday his 11th (even Meester is heading into his 10th).

Ha! HA!! HAAAA!!!!! Owen Daniels has had 1630 yards in only the past two seasons. Robert Royal has had 1081 yards in his ENTIRE 7 year career! HA! ....... sorry, I couldn't help but laugh at the comparison.
