I guess nobody feels like me that we shoudl have tyagged him, signed him, then traded him for a pick in either this or next years draft??? Maybe Cleveland or NY????
I would have liked that.
But we don't know if there would have been any takers.
Remember the first day of free agency? Lots of Safeties were being signed, and while Byrd was regarded as the top Safety to get, he was one of the last ones to sign. All the teams that were deemed as needing help at Safety(Browns, Eagles & Rams) all passed on him. A lot of teams were not all that keen on giving Byrd the type of money he was asking for. The Saints were the ones who swooped in and saved the day for Byrd, and nobody had them on the radar.
I would have liked to have tagged and traded Byrd, I just wonder if we could have found someone who was willing to trade with us, considering the steep price it would cost.

Anthony, Barr none.
Agreed.
One year wonder. The Vikings had better have a plan.

Not sure what many of you are going on about. Whaley admitted that their offer wasn't as good as what he got from New Orleans. Would he have signed if the Bills offered that too? Who knows, but in my opinion they should have tried.
Say what you want and drink the koolaid if you must, but players like Byrd don't grow on trees. He made game-changing plays and is one of the best at his position. And we aren't speaking of a long snapper here.
I get that it's the off season and everyone's glass is half full. But to me, it looks like the same polished turd in the Bills front office. As usual.
So you don't think the Bills have done anything to try to improve, during this offseason?

We have 4 or 5 guys competing for the starting FS spot this year, I figure we'll find at least one good player among them.
Do any of these 4 or 5 guys include Aaron Williams?
This is where I get confused. Is A Williams our Strong Safety or Free Safety?
-
Do you fellas think any of them will make the team??
I think Barden has the best chance, with Elliot having a slight chance. The others are long shots. More likely Practice Squad bound.
-
I know people kid about this stuff but do you really believe this?
I don't believe that at all.
All I remember from that Super Bowl was how idiotic Mike Martz was for not feeding the ball to Marshall Faulk on a continuous basis.
-
They could tag him just like last year. And just like last year he could hold out until the last possible minute. Then he would probably get some sand in his va-Jay-Jay and be out hurt again for a few more games. In actuality, we'd be worse off than if we just went with one of the young kids at FS and let them learn to play the position from the start of camp all the way forward.
This.
I was bummed about Byrd but the FO has shown that they have a pretty clear vision for how to build a winner. They could be wrong but at least they have a plan unlike the regimes before them.
And this.
Not to mention that the FO did sign A Williams to a contract extension.

I love Philip Rivers. I wouldn't pick him over the others, but he's the most entertaining QB in the league. Very unpredictable, big-time fire, plenty of talent. I hope he wins one soon because that'd be fun to watch. Rivers vs Cutler in the Super Bowl would be entertaining.
A Rivers-Cutler Super Bowl would be a lot of fun.
-
For me, it's Andrew Luck.
Manning & Brady aren't going to be around much longer. Aaron Rodgers is great, but I gotta go with the younger Luck.
No love for Phillip Rivers? I think the guy is a stud.
So Skelton is listed, but Nick Foles isn't? Hmmm.

I understand how some of us want to avoid the wrath of our parents, but WOW!
Did she really think she'd get away with this?

That Funchess kid from Michigan impressed me last year. Likely, not an in line TE but he is an athlete.
Beat me to it.
I would not be surprised at all if Devin Funchess declared for the draft after this season. While he is not a "True Tight End", the kid has talent.

Was Mariah Carey worthy of conversation?

Good point.

She enjoyed it described it as "a good movie" she literally has apparently never seen an entire godzilla movie and has vague recollections of seeing parts of a black and white godzilla movie so was caught off guard by it all. She had a good time I think. There was enough humanity in the movie to keep her interest.
Good. This is not a movie that most women will find appealing. Hopefully, good words will spread and more people will see it.
It exceeded expectations by making an estimated 93 million at the box office this weekend. And with Memorial Day weekend coming up, the second week drop may not be too severe. We shall see.

Someone will complain that's its propaganda about the need to take action on Global Warming.
The same way people complained that "The Dark Knight Rises" had an anti-Occupy Wall Street agenda?
I always look forward to what Christopher Nolan has in store for us. I look forward to this.

Well this thread has been hijacked.

I want to know where Manny Lawson fits into this defense.
Jim Monos says that Lawson is a DE. So is he a starting DE, or is Jerry Hughes the starter?
Personally I would like to see the Bills move Kyle Williams to DE and have Alan Branch as the starting DT next to Dareus.
Kyle has always been a good pass rusher, and Branch is a better D-Tackle.

Ole herky jerky Johnson might be the long term plan in SF according to the pft tv show.
With the 49ers abundance of talent and people to pay they might have to part ways with Crabtree next year.
That wouldn't be surprising. Crabtree has his moments but is too inconsistent. The best receiver on that team is still Vernon Davis.

That's no prize, but you obviously have never seen this. http://imgur.com/k2sAqHq that's the most ridiculous tattoo I've seen.
Yeesh! That's terrible.

His thread is going to hit 3 pages, I can feel it!

Saw it last night with the wife and really enjoyed it. Agree with both of your takes.
And what did the wife think of it?

"Godzilla" was awesome! I could not have asked for anything better. Director Gareth Edwards delivers the goods in a big way.
As I anticipated, this is more of a disaster film than a monster movie.
What a great way to celebrate the King of the Monsters 60th anniversary.
Add in the highly positive buzz from critics, and maybe, just maybe, people will start to take Godzilla a little more seriously.
So the question is, what's next? Is this a new franchise for Warner Bros.? If it is, what will they do with it? Ghidrah? Gigan? MechaGodzilla? Rodan? Mothra?
Or does Toho Studios take the rights back and start their own new series? We shall see.

#Bills Watkins doesn't so much catch the ball more of steals it from the air. More tonight on @twcnewsbuffalo
Excellent.

Emtman & Coryatt were great prospects.
Injuries did Emtman in. Didn't he have 2 knee injuries in one year? Hardly his fault.
Coryatt just never lived up to expectations.
