From BB.com's article "Bills react to Favre": "I couldn't care about something any less," said Bills fullback and former Jet Darian Barnes. "We play against great quarterbacks all the time. We play (Tom) Brady twice. It's just another great quarterback. I respect the man, but I just don't care." PWNED!

I don't know if this belongs here or not. I apologize if it belongs elsewhere and needs to be moved. But I had two tickets for tonights practice that I misplaced (or were taken by sceevy friends). I was wondering if anyone had two extra tickets that could be e-mailed to me or picked up somewhere? Any help would be appreciated. My e-mail is RochesterRox19 (at) yahoo.com Thanks!

I'll admit, I didn't know much about Steve Johnson when we took him in Round 7. But upon doing some research, he has some pretty impressive numbers in his one year as a starter after sitting on the bench as a Junior transfer, spending his first two years in a JUCO school. http://www.nfldraftcountdown.com/scoutingr...evejohnson.html I use NFLDC for my draft needs. I found this thread that was started before the draft and everyone seems to be really high on the guy. http://www.nfldraftcountdown.com/forum/sho...ead.php?t=16481 With his ties to one of the leaders of our team (Marshawn) and his talent/size, I wouldn't be surprised if our little 7th round pick made a big splash.

As well as Roscoe Parrish I take it?

Yeah and we could offer Indy the 12th pick overall, as well as part ownership of the team for Peyton Manning. ..... doesn't mean it's going to happen.

The site I always go by lists him as an Unrestricted Free Agent. It could be wrong though. But it's generally pretty reliable. http://www.footballsfuture.com/2007/nfl/freeagentsDB.html

Don't be surprised to see Nick Harper

Hunt will most likely not fall any further than the top of Round 3. He looked very good at the Senior Bowl. But honestly, I thought Kenny Irons was more impressive during the workout week and in the game. Nobody talks about him though because he only took a few carries since the South was playing catchup all game.

He's got some character concerns though. Something about Jamie Lee Curtis.....

That f'ing NFL Network.

I will be too. Even though I have to go to my Grandfather's house to watch it because it's on NFL Network I'll be watching the following players closely: Amobi Okoye, DT Louisville Patrick Willis, MLB Ole Miss Levi Brown, OT Penn State Johnnie Lee Higgins, WR UTEP Kenny Irons, RB Auburn Aaron Ross, CB Texas Justin Blalock, OG Texas Tony Ugoh, OT Arkansas DeMarcus "Tank" Tyler, DT North Carolina State Joe Staley, OT Central Michigan Dwayne Bowe, WR LSU Brian Leonard, FB Rutgers Leon Hall, CB Michigan Manuel Ramierez, OG Texas Tech Jordan Palmer, QB UTEP

Yeah, it would be difficult for Alan Branch to be participating in the Senior Bowl being a Junior and all.

With the way Denney played and with Hargrove emerging, I don't think it would be the end of the world if he wasn't retained. But I think calling him our 4th best DE is pushing it. He is the #2 DE on our team, luckily the other two aren't far behind.

How about Travis Henry? He plead no contest to a sexual charge with a 15 year old and was suspended for marijuana use after we traded him.

I really think Jeff Samardzija from Notre Dame is the perfect fit for Buffalo. He's a BIG, strong, physical WR that doesn't rely on speed but gets the job done anyways. However, he is a two sport guy and seems intent on playing both Baseball (for the Chicago Cubs) and NFL football. Combine this with the fact that it's a VERY deep WR class and Samardzija; a guy with 1st Round talent, may fall as late as the 3rd Round. Given these circumstances what are your thoughts of Jeff Samardzija lineing up with Lee Evans and Roscoe Parrish?

I'm a big fan of Rice personally. He's the #4 WR on my board behind Johnson, Jarrett, and Ginn. I think he'd be a good fit for Buffalo as the #2 WR. Since this is a deep WR class, 1st Round talent like Rice may be available in the 2nd. A big concern with him is that he only played 2 years of college ball.

Neither, I don't see how either of them are much of an upgrade from the "Price/Reed/Davis: #3 WR's battling for a #2 position connection".

We'd be lucky to get a 3rd for him with his performance this year, attitude, and injury history.

- I know we traded our 5th for Hargrove, but where's our 4th? - I don't think Holcomb returns next season. I believe we'll be drafting a QB in the later rounds to back up Losman and Nall. Holcomb always seemed to be an insurance policy if Losman didn't work out. Now that he's the man, Holcomb's expendable. - Hollis Thomas was just suspended for Steroids. I don't know if that's something the Bills want. - Melvin Fowler has been solid. There's no reason to replace him. - I like Floyd Womack. But I think RT is more of a need than RG is. - There's NO WAY Donte Stallworth leaves Philly. I highly doubt they traded for him and made him their premier WR just to let him walk after one season. If he did walk, i'd doubt he'd leave a better team where he was the #1 WR to come here and be #2. I hadn't heard he was a FA in the first place.

Good because now all the genius draftniks out there will not have us taking him Bad because I do think we will be taking a QB in the later rounds. Brohm coming out could have pushed a better player to us.

Nah, she just looks drunk.

I think they're equal as far as talent and cost. A-Train's been here and done a good job in mop up duty. Signing Shipp in his place wouldn't make much sense unless Thomas decided to sign elsewhere. I think it's best that we just agree to disagree on Crayton. I think calling him better than Bennett is just plain silly. Crayton is halfway decent, but it certainly has more to do with the fact that all the secondary attention is going towards T.O. and Terry Glenn. Put him in a bigger role on a team with an inferior WR core and I don't think he does squat.

I'm definitely digging your draft. The first few rounds are exactly like my mock. However, you do have a few puzzling things: - Why would we spend the money on Marcel Shipp if we have both Willis McGahee and Marshawn Lynch in the backfield? Not to mention, A-Train is still under contract (I believe) and is better than Shipp IMO - Patrick Crayton as our #2? I don't see it. He's no better than 3rd or 4th on Dallas' depth chart and isn't much of an upgrade (if any at all) over Peerless Price, Josh Reed, or Andre' Davis. If we're going to move Peerless out of the #2 spot, it needs to be for someone more like Drew Bennett or a 1st day draftee. - I think Duke Preston is solid at RG. If you're going to change anything on the OL, it needs to start with Terrance Pennington.

I don't like the idea of picking Okoye. He had an average-good college career. The intriguing thing about him is his upside. He could be something really special or he could be a flop. Either way, he's VERY green and it would take some time before he starts making a big impact. He's a project and I don't like drafting projects. Especially when we already have a bunch of them in the middle. I think DT is something that shouldn't be addressed in the First Round unless Alan Branch is there. I'm honestly more interested in seeing if DeMarcus Tyler will be there in Round 2 (most assume he will be picked after Branch, Okoye, and Quinn Pitcock). I think it would give him and McCargo a better chance to flourish together just as they did in college.

While I agree with you, i'd imagine it's a little soon to annoint him the next Marshall Faulk. That being said he is faster, more decisive, runs harder, and is a better reciever than Willis is. The lack of a run game REALLY killed us this year and I think Marshawn would fix that problem. I realize we have other needs but we'd still have some high first day picks left even if we picked Lynch. Not to mention, a lot of FA money and a lack of experience at most of our needs positions.
