Well, that's a good thought when you take into consideration DJ might be on the outs after this season. At least we didn't draft a player that would only work in the current system.

Exactly my thoughts, as well. The writer shoots his credibility right out the window when he dismisses two of the top-three top-ranked interior linemen in this year's draft without any explanation.

That seems to indicate they believe this kid has a decent shot at making the active roster, I would think.

What about Alvin Bowen? He got hurt last year, any chance he can have any impact this year? What about Derek Fine? He got hurt last year, any chance he can have any impact this year? There are lot of questions from last year's roster that carry over to this year still unanswered. I think this past weekend showed us the Bills coaching staff belives the answer to the Ellis and Bowen questions are that they believe these guys will be able to make an impact this year. More so, it seems the coaching staff wasn't blowing smoke when they said they had confidence in Walker, Butler, Bell and Chambers.

Trade our 4th to Denver and our 5th along with Parrish to Jax = Draft's mission accomplished

There were better OTs, OLBs, TEs and DTs. Terrible!

And Denver would take Sanchez.

Why the assumption Champjb10 is a guy? Cannot a woman be a Bills fan on here?

I sure am. There are several areas of information on there, as it really is just a loosely organized compilation. The compiler pasted a lot of text on the page but he also included a lot of links. This link, which is the first reference on the page to OLBs, is what I am talking about: http://www.greenbaypressgazette.com/articl...1/90418069/1058

There really is a lot of stuff in there. Very informative. I have changed my mind on several players (both for the good and bad) after reading it, and I still have a good deal to go. I wasn't aware of how bad some the medical issues are, especially Ingram's, who I liked before and now wouldn't touch.

I think this trade could very well drive the price for Scheffler up to a third. And I think there is a very good chance the Raven snag Pettigrew. If the Bills want Pettigrew, they need to draft him with their first pick; although, not necessarily at #11.

I strongly feel the Dirty Birds overpaid for him, anyway. A second round pick, even being a 2010, for a guy who probably only has two seasons left in him is not good business. Atlanta must feel they can win it all right now with Gonzo.

The Press-Gazette writer on there has all three of them listed at OLBs.

Sounds like solid reasoning. Whoever it is, I am sure he does well.

I would take Scheffler simply because we get our DE and C and TE. But Scheffler is also a lot safer. And our 28th overall and 4th-round pick will not get us up in front of the Falcons.

And that is EXACTLY what the Bills need -- a quality blocker to help our new LT get situated and give Trent a decent check-down target.

I'd be more than fine with that.

True, and they might have been trying to be deceptive, but it sure looks like they were right.

I'm thinking with Rhodes in Buffalo blue, it doesn't really matter what Omon is wearing.

It was the full article when originally posted. I don't think anyone said this was a "major" problem. I know I didn't. But I know firsthand that it is a problem. Most newspapers are fighting for their lives right now. Sure, ESPN, being a TV network, is surely doing better than say SI or Sporting News, but the point is these Web sites need to be revenue streams for print media in order for print media to survive. If people are making it possible to get the site's content without at least visiting the site, the newspaper depending on online ad revenue will fail.

Torn ACL a year ago. Torn pec muscle last spring. Broken hand last season. He's tough enough -- playing through the pain and all, but the fact is he gets injured, which often indicates a player simply doesn't have the instincts to protect himself, IMHO.

What is your problem? The bottom-line is that copying and pasting a full article is, in fact, stealing. The media outlet (ESPN, in this case) paid the writer to do the reporting. In order for ESPN to continue to pay reporters to write articles, it needs to make money. When you take the article off its site and let others read it without going to the ESPN site, you are keeping ESPN from making money on the article it paid for. You are stealing from ESPN. It is especially damaging when you take an article off the Web site's subscribers-only section and post it elsewhere. I applaud you for subscribing, but that fee you pay does not grant you permission to redistribute the article. Before you reply, you should realize that this is a huge problem for news organizations of every type. I am quite sure that if this type of theft isn't greatly reduced soon, we will find a lot less major news organizations in business. Hey, if you want all your "news" in the future to come from non-paid guys, such as what you find on football365 and Bleacher Report, keep stealing. All that said, I understand you are just trying to help your fellow Bills fans out. I appreciate that, and I would be more than willing to discuss how you can do while also letting media outlets get their due.

No thanks on English. Too injury prone. But it should be pointed out the negatives are a lack of bulk and strength, yet in the "compares to" section, it says, "you have to be impressed with his power."

As much as I hate the fact Ralph fired the best GM in the game, the move that totally drained the team of its winning attitude was taking the team from Flutie and giving it to Johnson. We immediately suffered one of the franchise's worst losses ever and have yet to sniff the playoffs since. Of course, I feel strongly that if Polian were still our GM, we'd have won the division last season.
