5 goals on 10 shots in the first period. THE BUFFALO MAGIC IS BACK.
La-La-La-La-LaFontaaaaaaaaaine.....................................................

I don't know why. I'm a big Marv fan, as I've said, I think getting rid of Donahoe - his ego, his decision-making, and his abrasive management style - has to be a net gain for the organization.
That said, I'm all of a sudden freaking out about draft weekend. For no good reason that I can pinpoint, I'm now convinced that the Bills are going to do something stupid and unexpected on Saturday, like trading down a few picks and then taking Cutler. I dunno why, I just get this eerie feeling that, come Monday, the Bills will be the absolute laughingstock of the League for a piss-poor draft performance. Again, I have NO GOOD REASON, NOR ANY GOOD SENSE. I know I need to shake this feeling, but I can't. Anyone else having similar premonitions? If not, care to talk me off the ledge?

Fits with what we know about TD's and Marv's management styles. TD was rumored to be secretive, manipulative, micromanaging, and intimidating. Marv is thought to be more open, honest, and collaborative. As I've said before, hopefully this is addition by subtraction - the effect on morale and performance of removing someone like Donahoe from the organization should not be underestimated.
-
He tackles like Troy Vincent. Don't like him (I'm serious).
-
Clayton = Tweetie Bird
-
Willis also is in the last year of his deal, is he not?
-
Good point about Ngata not playing every down. That is huge IMO - Bunkley is an every-down player, making him more valuable IMO.
-
TD ran himself out of town with his horribe decision-making and abrasive, stifling management style. I can't believe ANYONE still disputes this (I doubt even Donahoe disputes it now). Mort's revisionism on that point discredits everything else he reports.
-
Inaccuracy is due 100% to mechanics. It's possible JP is experimenting with different footwork, throwing motion, etc., at Fairchild's directives. It's also possible that JP's mechanics simply aren't good. In any event, my point is that poor accuracy is correctable.

One team in need of safety help interested in Smith is Buffalo. The Bills released veteran Lawyer Milloy, and he signed with Atlanta. That leaves Coy Wire and Matt Bowen battling to fill his job. They're not exactly the two swiftest players, so Smith, who runs better than both of those players, makes sense. Smith played well for the Saints last year, his first with the team. He can tackle, and as a former corner, he has quality cover skills. Getting him would be a good move for the Bills.

I don't know who you mean by "we", but Buffalo has its politicians to thank and no one else. The corrupt political elite that has run the City and County for the last 20+ years have drained the wealth out of the area by raising taxes in order to make good on promises to unions that never should have been made, all the while driving out more and more businesses.
-
I'm thinking we cut Peerless Price tomorrow, eat his signing bonus, let him sign with the Patriots, then trade our #8 pick to the Patriots for Peerless Price.
-
For the record, aside from Wahle, last year's FA guard crop was horrible. The guy the Bills really wanted - DeMulling - was paid a lot more than Bennie by the Lions, and almost lost his starting job several times during the season.
-
Why did Price get a 4-year deal and Andre Davis only a 1-year deal? Should be the exact opposite. Marv is fuggin up.

Lemme see...
1) he's very unlikely to make the team;
2) if he does make the team, it means we're in even worse shape than we thought;
3) it means we're probably not making a play for Javon Walker;
4) it means we're probably not drafting a WR on Day 1 to replace Moulds;
5) it shows a lack of patience, because other, younger WRs who actually have, I dunno, UPSIDE, may still enter the free agent market (Charles Rogers),
6) anyone who has seen PP play the last few years knows he no longer gets separation and has lost his deep speed (WRs near or over 30 almost never "rediscover" speed - Galloway may be an exception);
7) it means that, of the 9 receivers on the Bills roster, and the 3-4 tight ends, the Bills still have NO ONE who will go over the middle to catch passes (I said "catch" Josh Reed).
Other than that, nothing, nothing's wrong with it. FUG.

He is threatening the League and New York State politicians, not Bills fans. And it seems to be working.

You guys are all whiny and nuts. 10-20-30 years ago, and the first 50 years of the NFL, you got to watch 2-3 games total each week. The only football news you got about the Bills was a couple articles a day during the season from The Buffalo Evening News or Courier Express you had to buy. There was no cable and satellite and ESPN and ticker machines and Internet and message boards and Two Bills Drive and every game available and sports bars with 30 TVs and huge screens with great pictures and HDTV and The NFL Network.
You're lucky bastards to have NFL news and games everywhere 24-7 365.25 and you just complain. DirectTV is friggin' awesome. ESPN, even though they are evil blowhards, is friggin' awesome. The Internet is friggin' awesome. The NFL Network is friggin' awesome. The coverage of the NFL and the availability of it and the cheapness of price for how much time you spend with it and how much it matters to you is friggin' awesome.
The Bills aren't moving in the near and probably far off future.
Move to Iraq. We're the luckiest bastards in the history of the world.
Post of the year.
NEWSFLASH: THE BILLS ARE NOT A PUBLIC ENTITLEMENT, THEY ARE A PRIVATE CORPORATION. SO IS THE N.F.L. FANS ARE NOT SHAREHOLDERS NOR ARE THEY VOTERS.
Like it or not, "Greed" has gotten this country where it is: the most powerful military and economy in the history of mankind. There are only two things we legitmately can complain about:
first, public corruption, meaning politicians abusing the system to make themselves or their friends money. I don't see that happening in the case of the Bills - if anything, corruption will be part of the SOLUTION to keeping the Bills here (unfortunately).
second, the League and its owners making poor ECONOMIC choices, meaning choosing something that's in the SHORT-TERM best interests of themselves or the League but that harms the LONG-TERM viability of the N.F.L. IMO here's where we may have a legitimate gripe: by adopting a CBA that threatens to wipe out small-market teams, the ownership may be increasing its short-term pie (LA, television revenues) while harming the League's long-term outlook by eroding the until-now-expanding fanbase. That's a gripe, but it's a gripe about the stupidity of the League's front office, NOT a gripe about capitalism - which by the way is HERE TO STAY, because it's the least-worst way of organizing a society. If you don't believe me, spend some time in France, where they've chosen Pensions over Progress by consistently making stupid choices in the name of "culture," "tradition," and "the good of the community."

The problem with your prediction is that Hagan and Bullocks are second rounders.
-
If Cutler falls to #8, it will open up a great trade opportunity for us - with the Vikings, perhaps, or the Rams.
If Davis falls to #8, I'm thinking we may be able to trade that pick to Denver for both of its 1st rounders.
-
I have a better idea. If Vernon Davis is on the board when we pick, we trade our #8 pick to Denver for both of their first-rounders. We then have a chance to add even more depth, including Chad Jackson...

Loosen up the bowtie dude.

Would McNair go to the Jets? He'd have to make up with Heimerdinger, but I could see it happening.

Looks like Justice has vaulted into the top ten after his pro day workout:

Hmm... good thing they don't already have a MLB (Zach Thomas), and haven't already drafted his replacement (Channing Crowder).
Sabres > DirecTV > Rochester
