Here is what gets me about this signing. All of the Miami articles talk about how Anderson is a better fit for Miami's offense than he would be in the new offense Fairchild is installing in Buffalo. But,
MIAMI IS GONNA BE RUNNING BUFFALO'S 2005 OFFENSE.
Hello! Mularkey is the OC. We know what offense he's gonna be installing, and guess what, Bennie SUCKED in it last year, in fact he was pulled during multiple games and single-handedly lost a game when they left him in there (the Pats game in NE). This signing is a fuggin joke.

Brad (NM): Why does Buffalo sign a bunch of scrub QB's when they can at least go through a season with a proven Vet like Collins?
Chris Neubauer: Because Dick Jauron is the head coach. When he was with the Bears he had scrub quarterbacks named Jim MIller, Shane Matthews, Cade McNown. When he was the head coach for a few games in Detroit last year he had scrub QBs named Joey Harrington and Jeff Garcia. Wherever Dick Jauron goes, scrub QBs follow
(I especially like the last line.)

Carwell Gardner is due for a MONSTER year... on the pie-eating circuit.

Graham sucks, awful hands, key drops at key times... the Pats liked him so much they drafted Ben Watson in the first round to replace him.
-
Lelie will be going to the Eagles.
The Bills have no interest in either player, says my source.
My source is my butthole, but he's always right.

Wonder if the Bills were in the mix for Jonathan Sullivan, then pulled the trigger on Watson when the Pats got Sullivan.
Also, sorta unrelated, PFT says Justin Smiley may be available from the 49ers, if the Bills are still in the trading mood...

Euhus was a guy Mularkey wanted, to run MM's piece-of-crap five-yard curl-out on-third-and-nine offense. The guy was never a physical blocker and didn't show much on special teams. A one-trick pony who didn't fit this offense that needs blocking tight ends.
Watson should at least provide depth, and I'll bet he turns into an above-average special teams player.
Saban tried to trade for Watson last month, didn't he?

....but we even used a 1st rounder this year on the D line.
We are doomed to never be able to stop the run.
Not only did we take a 1st rounder but brought in a FA.
What does that do to the philosophy????
With such an incoherent philosophy the players on the D line are bound to be totally confused, lose faith, slack off & generally not be any good.
If only the new management had some sort of consistency in their approach to the team.
Well, I'm not blaming THIS front office for the lack of talent along the lines, sorry if my post implied that. I most certainly blame Donahoe's regime for that. Levy and Jauron appear to understand the problem, but they are a couple of years away from being able to fix it. In the meantime, a new offense AND defense is being installed, with a ton of holes on both sides. Also, in the meantime, what I'll call "character rebuilding" is gonna be taking place - i.e., jettisoning the turds on this roster who just don't care too much about winning. (Cya, Lawyer). It's gonna take awhile to rebuild this roster, and the results will be ugly at first. I'd love to be optimistic, and I think overall this organization now is heading (or at least pointing) in the proper direction, but next year is gonna suck ass.

How nice it was to root for a real team - one with talent, heart, and a well-oiled organization. Great run, ran out of magic at the end (don't they always in this town?). Definitely good for the City and the League.
Now on to the pathetic Bills. Old owner, new leadership, huge holes on both sides of the ball. Both lines are a mess. Team is built from the outside in, instead of from the inside out, meaning the skill players on both sides of the ball don't have the line protection they need in order to make plays. Still no clear-cut QB and it's June already. I'm predicting 2-4 wins. FUG.
-
Yup.
Either that, or their record will be even worse this year...
-
Most teams have a clear-cut starter...

You obviously have not seen his 40 time or you wouldn't have started a thread like this.

I gotta disagree with you there, although we're wayyyy off-topic. The draft is HUGE in the modern NFL. It's not just "8/53" of your roster. For one, you get these players cheaper than FAs, for 4-6 years. This is critical - you have the opportunity to get potentially great players at bargain prices. Second, you are able to develop the character and style of your football team from the ground up, something that every type of business organization needs to be able to do. Donahoe's mismanagement of the draft was an ENORMOUS part of the problem with this franchise during his tenure, and it's left us where we are today - with a roster full of holes and devoid of character.

I agree, although it was certainly not his fault.
As a long time fan, I was a little disturbed watching JP hop around the sidelines. I found his act to be a bit too animated for my tastes, at least until he proves something. Imo, this did not endear him to the vets either. Again, this is mere speculation.
On the field and on the sidelines, he seemed to have little control, but I am not sure where "attitude" enters into the above. By all reports, he is a hard worker.
We can only hope that JP has matured, because he does have the tools that one would need to be a successful NFL QB, and that says a lot. Otoh, I hope that they pull the plug soon if he continues to play poorly.
I mean, they DID dump Bledsoe who is 10x better than JP, at least for now.
That is right. Forget attitude - JP's problem is that he plays like a total spaz. He won't ever be successful until he learns to calm down in the pocket.
-
First off, he goes by "Joey." JO-EEEE. As Bill Simmons has said, the dude needs to start by changing his name if he's gonna turn his career around.
Second, Jo-eee is a fuggin coward. He HATES having the ball in his hand, and will do whatever he has to to get it out of there as soon as it's snapped to him.
Jo-eeee will be starting for the Dolphins for at least the first 6 games and perhaps more, and frankly I couldn't think of a less intimidating opponent.
-
Sadly, Donahoe concurred with those "13 year-olds" and was ready to pick Nugent (and even tried to trade up for him). Thank God that era is over.
-
Why stick up for corrupt politicians like Willis who consistently abuse the public's trust? Willis has been doing this for thirty years - first he made Bethlehem Steel leave town, now he's ruining WNY's second-best Public Entitlement.
-
Kill him.
-
I don't know why I ever voted for Willis for Mayor. He has really let us down, the schools haven't improved and property taxes are higher than ever.
-
Willis should be tarred and feathered in public by the honorable citizens of WNY who spend their hard-earned tax dollars on underperforming bureaucrats such as himself.
