  1. I like Marshawn better than Fred when Marshawn was at 215 lbs., but that is the problem with this team - we have too many undrafted FA's playing at a level equal to, or greater than, our first round draft picks. Fred Jackson vs Marshawn Lynch; George Wilson vs Donte Whitner; Jabari Greer vs Leodis McKelvin; Jason Peters vs Mike Williams; Erik Flowers vs Kendrick Office; I don't even have a comparison for Aaron Maybin, John McCargo, and JP Losman - they suck in a class of their own. We need to get this 1st round pick thing straightened out ASAP!!
  2. Lynch packed on 15-20 lbs of muscle and it clearly hurt his game. Never known for having elite speed anyway, the extra pounds really slowed him up. He needs to get back to his playing weight of his rookie year - 215. Marshawn, stay away from 230+ even if you believe that you've retained all of your speed and quickness..
  3. The reason why I didn't believe the OP, is because he said Tebow was wearing a Bills logo. As someone who will be seeking employment from 32 NFL franchises, why wear a competitor's logo?
  4. I like his highlight video - - looks like a mobile Drew Bledsoe. With that being said, I don't like the competition that he was playing against - Cornell, Bryant St., Holy Cross, Who Dat U. I also noticed that his reads aren't super quick. He tends to hold onto the ball and sit in the pocket a little bit. I would take a flier on him in round 5+ not before.
  5. I agree with the "looking lost" portion of that sentence, but Hardy never "dropped a bunch of passes" like you stated. The Rams game comes to mind early in his rookie season - when TE threw to him about 5 times in a row. Edwards never put the ball in an optimum position, however, most other tall NFL WRs will make plays on those same passes. Hardy did not - his play on the ball comes into question WAY more than his hands. With that said, I think that he'll be a fine WR in time, we just need someone to get him and Lee the ball on a consistent basis...
  6. I watched him play a couple of games (I have a friend who is a Notre Dame fan) and he looked absolutely like the real deal. As he was leading The Irish on comebacks, I couldn't help but picture how he would look in the red, white, and blue, and if we would be in a position to draft him. If he's there at 9, take him Nix!
  7. I'd say the hole is at QB. Reserve judgment on the young WRs until you get a QB that can actually get them the ball. 80% of the time, a good/great QB makes his WRs good, or better than they are...
  8. Uh Oh... This is the player we wined and dined with a steak dinner. The comments regarding him are WORSE than the comments back when we signed Langston Walker..
  9. Re-signing Jonathan Scott for far less, would probably have been the better move. Is Cornell Green that much of an upgrade over Jonathan Scott?
  10. Remind me, how did Big Ben and that shoddy pass blocking OL do last year?! Aaron Rodgers may hold onto the ball, but GB has a porous line. Despite this, he continuously makes plays and puts up big numbers.. Kurt Warner's OL during the Superbowl run last year was atrocious and got him hurt this year. You seriously think AZ's pass protection is good? Mike Gandy was a turnstile for the Bills at LT and was a turnstile for the Cardinals. Warner's talent helped mask their OL's deficiencies. It probably wasn't fair to bring up Peyton Manning, considering he is arguably the best QB in the game, but he makes his OL, as well as his receivers, far better than they are... The OL was exposed when his backup came in to play.
  11. I can think of 3 current ones - Big Ben, Aaron Rodgers, and the Arizona Kurt Warner. Also, did you notice how bad the Colts OL looked after Peyton Manning stepped out of the last 2 regular season games?
  12. Teams and scouts put wayyy too much stock into the combine and pro days. You have an entire body of work to evaluate a player in actual football games, yet, a fringe player can become a high draft pick based on his measureables.
  13. Andre Reed is an ex football player, not a football scout. Whatever statement he makes in reference to another player, has just as much credibility as those in the media, or those on a messageboard. Jim Kelly also said that Trent is done in Buffalo. Neither statement by either player should be given much credence. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion..
  14. It's easy to say you want so and so at QB if you don't have to deal with the frustrations of said QB throwing, or not throwing you the ball. Put Andre Reed on the field in a 3rd and 12 situation. Let's see how much Andre wants Trent at QB, after running a precise 15 yd pattern and turning around to find McIntyre or Schouman running for a 2 yd gain...
  15. I still can't believe that was Dicky J's original plan after drafting him. Even in that photo, he looks too skinny to be an every down DE.
  16. Incognito said during the season that he would love to be a Buffalo Bill this upcoming year. Something about these teammates having fight in them vs his Rams teammates. I'm not going to dig for that article, but he did say it. Whoever said Incognito didn't want to be a Bill this year, is just trying to rationalize not tendering an offer to Richie...
  17. Another part time starter. Sounds like Geoff Hangartner v 2.0
  18. Has there ever been a successful "Mike Williams" in the NFL?! The tub of lard, the USC flameout, and now this one. I'd be happy if the Bills never draft another "Mike Williams".
  19. Yes he did... Eisen ran a 6.2, while Cody ran in the high 5's. http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-combine/0900...en-s-40-yd-dash
  20. It was rumored that Pike weighed around 99 lbs during this past season - has anyone checked him for the juice that Maybin took to put on weight?!
  21. I see it's bash Lee Evans time again. Look people, there is no other position on offense more dependent than WR. A WR needs a competent QB to get him the ball. If he doesn't have that, then of course production will be minimal. The previous 3 years before TO came to the Bills, he was a 1,000+ yd and double digit TD scorer with DAL. Insert the same WR in Buffalo's offensive attack and he has his worst year since 1999. It doesn't matter if we had Larry Fitzgerald, Andre Johnson, and Brandon Marshall lining up as the three wideouts, we couldn't get them the ball anyway! Maybe you all will get your wish and Lee will be traded to a team with a capable offense. If that does happen, there can be NO b****ing about his Pro Bowl production with his new team...
  22. The NFL has a staunch steroid testing procedure, so he couldn't have taken steroids. Most likely, it was HGH as there is no testing for that stuff in professional sports. (Although they are lobbying for it, but the player's union won't support it, because it involves a blood test)
  23. I saw a picture of him standing next to Hardy on the sidelines last year and said, "Maybin has the same build as James Hardy!!" People then mocked me and said, "maybe Hardy should move to DE/OLB!" It's not so funny, now that his weight/body frame dilemma has become more apparent to everyone..
  24. Oh, didn't see "article from The Onion" when I first posted. I didn't bother reading the article to see that it was from The Onion either.
