Right now the Bills are in a logjam of 5-8 teams that could leave us picking anywhere between 8-11 in the draft. That puts us in prime territory to land a Donte Whitner/Aaron Maybin type player to continue to bolster our squad. If Perry "Fossil" Fewell continues his run as interim coach landing a couple more wins, however, we could drop to the bottom half of the first round in that 16-18 range, what with all of the 6-7 teams ahead of us we could catch. Could be a choice pick come April! Here's hoping we can land another Donte Whitner type leader on D!

Can you take me hiiiiigher??!?!!!! As Donte whiffs yet again.

I wouldn't side with those who want to just dump Lynch per se, and agree that we need at least 2 good backs. That being said, however, there were multiple occassions once again when Lynch got a dump off pass or a pitch and immediately started juking and got nowhere. Now granted... these plays were not well blocked, but I thought to myself on each one of these occassions "If Freddie was in the game, he would've moved the chains..." And then the next series Freddie would come into the game... and he would move the chains. Jackson just always turns the ball upfield, takes what is there, and then the dude just flat gets slippery and gets 4 or 5 yards out of nothing. That's the difference between the two, and it's oh so important if we hope to have a winning team again.

Tampa Bay straight up busted that 5-2 in the late 80's/early 90's. Twas the shizzle. You need the personnel to do it, but, if you have it you can really create problems for the offense because you match up man to man across the line and doesn't allow for any double teams. Every single O-lineman has to be able to hold their ground man up, if they cannot... the play is busted. Even if they can maintain a hat on a hat, it's impossible to leak a guard out to take out a backer. Tampa did not have quality personnel when they ran this, but I feel the right grouping of personnel could pull this off. Assuming you got a Suh in the draft and pair him with a Marcus Stroud type DT, you could put in a Kyle Williams (or ideally a Ted Washington type NT) on the center and now the guards have to man up with Stroud and Suh. On an every down basis, how many guards are going to be able to hold their own one on one with Stroud or a player who could (I stress potentially, but he sure looks like the real deal) potentially be as dominant as Suh? Now everytime a guard doesn't stand these guys up one on one, there's pressure right up the gut and a busted play for the offense.

The reason the 5-2 would be successful: Offensive Formation: Split backs/1 TE Offensive Play: Ye Ole' Quick Pitch OR Offensive Play: Ye Ole' Play Action/Goin Yard Defensively, we align 3 DT's, 2 DE's, 2 LB's, and our standard 4 man secondary. The NOSE TACKLE lines up directly over Center, guards are left open, but LB's line up in their gap 4 yards from LOS, 2 DT's line up directly over tackles, 1 DE lines up over TE, 1 DE lines up uncovered. Result: Buffalo Bills Win

I'd like to implement YE OLE' 5-2 defense, similar to what Tampa Bay ran in the late 80's/early 90's.

The Tony Dungy Experience will provide full on COVER 2... Michael Vick scrambling around, eluding the pass rush, and a winning season. Upon a winning season in the B-LO, Dungy will earn the monaker of "THE DUNGY-MEISTER"

Cablelady's fin' to do her "booty go 'round n' rounds' while JP is in da CLUB, yo!

Ye Ole' went Incognito one time! WHOOO-AHHHHH

Indeed! BOOTY STANK, I tell you!

This thread is BOOTY STANK!

You say Petiti, I say Pe-TIT-i

That's what we call Ye Ole' Pick 6, boyeeeeee!

Easy choice... Brian Moorman. And that's the fact, Jack!

Sounds like just another night out on the town with Ye Ole'

The young lady in BuffOrange's avatar is his baby momma! That's right, ya heard it here first! Ye Ole' let the cat out o' the bag one more once!

It wasn't JP's fault though... the O-line was cramping his style, and he couldn't take the coaches nagging him all the time. But it'll be different this time... JP's changed. He's going to be good now, he promises... if we'll just have him back.

This idea is awesome! Absolutely awesome... this is shrewd thinking around the Tim Tebow piece. Not only shall we draft him and convert him to HB/TE... but prior to doing so, make him a QB for a couple of years first.

Yes, and the only jabroni's to man up and play Boise were the Pac 10 Champion/Rose Bowl Champion Ducks of Oregon... and they done took their medicine at the hands of the Broncos... BOYEEEEE. Ye Ole' hath spoken! TCU is "The Whip" as well, but make no mistake... if Boise was a McDonald's Value Menu Item, they'd be dubbed THE REAL McDeal

Let us move Maybin to safety... for posterity sake, of course.

Elbert "GOLDEN WHEELS" Duuuuubenion... big of you to join us! Pip pip, cheerio!

The question is... will the Bills brass have that WOOOOOD come draft day? In the classic Darren McFadden fashion, will they get that WOOOOOD baby? Will they find the pick of the draft? The next Darren "Got that WOOOOOD right herrrrre" McFadden, perhaps? Before voting, please view the following study materials:

HERE HERE! Lets change your monaker to "MASTER Defense" ... shall we? For posterity sake, of course!

In today's game it only means something to women and children, but not to MEN like YE OLE' Uh oh... YE's gonna bust it Stuart Scott style... BOOOO-YA! Man... we in here talkin' bout PRACTICE!

Ouch... total crash and burn!
