  1. Agreed and agreed. Hence the reason we are where we are. BTW how good does Sanchez look? Damn, very impressed.
  2. so is it 5 or 6, couldn't find the answer anywhere on the internet?
  3. Not too often that Buffalo radio stations have the scoop before any of the national journalists. Probably nothing here.
  4. Wanted to see the Bills final 53 before heading into work. Anyone know the exact time teams need to trim to 53 by? Thanks!
  5. Cutler is a great fantasy QB, but personally I don't think that highly of him when it comes to winning games. Not a big fan of Edwards either by any means, but I still believe Cutler is highly overrated by the media.
  6. Trent looks horrible and the coaching staff as well. The guy has thrown exactly one pass thus far further than 6 yards. Just 1. In order of our offense to get a first down Trent needs to complkete 2 passes because they refuse to throw past the sticks and have no ability to run.
  7. anyone else concerned with the way Marshawn Lynch has looked this preseason. Or is it just a lack of push by the lineman in our run game. The run game as a whole by the 1st unit has been really bad.
  8. I've never seen a team give up 2nd and 15's as regularly as this soft Bill D. its so doscouraging. On a side note the Bills offense is in serious dangers of setting an nfl record for lowest time of possession if they can't get the no huddle figured out. TOP 12-3 in Pittsburgh favor after the 1st quarter. That's horrendous. Hopefully TO will solve some of the problems, but I see some serious problems brewing already.
  9. This team has no ability to generate pressure on the quarterback, nor ther ability to get off the field on 3rd down.
  10. The Home Opener vs. the Bucs. At leats we have a decent chance of winnign this one!
  11. Tim, If Bell gets the nod at LT at some point this season, does Langston Walker move to RT or does he go to the bench? My assumption would be they move him back to RT, but that will obviously shuffle things up on the interior of the line no?
  12. Exactly. If we get pounded by NE we're done for. If we get pounded by NE in week 1 and lose to the Bucs at home, we're without question done for (I think the Bucs finish with a bottom 10 record). If we beat NE, than you're right we'll knwo what we got mid season.
  13. at the 5:20 mark in the Press conference a reporter asks Juaron about Copeland Bryan and Chris Ellis. Listen to Juaron's second "yea". It's hilarious, sounds like a very meek feminine aggrement with the guy asking the question, thought it was pretty funny. His PC's are always entertaining, if not frustrating.
  14. The only way Reggie Corner wasn't going to be this teams starting nickel back was if Juaron had veteran man love with Florence. I think Corner is hands down the best nickel corner on this team, and is a guy who could eventually develop into a solid #2 corner. Reggie corner is a guy who I think will make some big plays this year!
  15. I've been thinking for a while now that either Youboty or Florence could possibly be cut. According to your breakdown Florence gets the axe, which whould be a big surprise, but I could see it happening. It's just tought to see someone like Florence get cut and Wendling make it, but Wendling adds much more value to special teams than florence, so it is forseeable.
  16. What Bills fan can't imagine a scenario where we lose a quality starter after his first contract is up? Seems to be, to some degree, the MO of this front office. Then we'll use a high first round pick to replace that player, hence the reason we're always fighting for 7-9 seasons.
  17. I'm with Mike Mayock, he really opened my eyes to Robert Ayers. May not be the pass rusher this team was looking for, but I think he will be the best all around DE out of the draft. I would've been very happy to have him as a Bill.
  18. If Ashton Youboty doesn't get back on the field soon I could see the Bills possibly cutting ties with a guy who simply can't stay healthy. In my opinion either Youboty or Florence (an even bigger surprise) gets cut. McKelvin, McGee, Corner in my opinion are definites. Ellis Lankster IMO has a legitimate shot to make the roster based on his camp. If a long shot like Lankster were to make the team and we only keep 5 CB's like we did last eyar, than it means goodbye to Youboty or Florence. The more likely scenario would be to have Lankster on the practice squad, but as you know practice squad players can sign with other teams. So, if the Bills really like Lankster or Harris I could see the scenario where Youboty or Florence get squeezed out. Knowing Juaron's devotion toward veterans I think Florence would get the nod opver Youboty if the decision were to come down to the both of them. Or perhaps the Bills decide to keep 6 CB's and only 5 safeties (the inverse of last year), in which case no one surprising has to get cut.
  19. Some of that saved 20 year old food almost made me puke. That's crazy/scary!
  20. Last years 21st pick, Sam Baker signed a 5 year $13.5 million deal with $7.8 million guarenteed. According to PFT's information Mack's deal will be very close to a 5 year deal worth $14,512,000 with $8.75 million guarenteed. Now if we project the same increases using last years #28 pick, Lawrence Jackson, as a benchmark, Eric Wood's contract will come in around: Jackson (2008): 5 years $11.25 million, $6.1 million guarenteed Wood (2009): 5 years $12.1 million, $6.85 million guarenteed. BTW for anyone looking for a good reference to the contracts signed by last years rookie this is perfect: http://www.nfl.com/draft/story?id=09000d5d...mp;confirm=true
  21. Boy would he have looked good in a Bills uni the last 6 seasons! Then maybe we could have focused on the lines a little more in the draft.
  22. Some may disagree, but I think Kansas City will be much more competitive this year. Pioli will have that team turned around quickly. The subtraction of Herm Edwards will do that team wonders. I don't see them being neccesarily good, but 7-9 (same a s the Bills most likely) is forseeable. A good play for over/under for season wins for sure! I also like the fact that they are in a weaker division.
  23. It's funny you mentioned Buddy Nix. After the draft I was very curious what impact he had on the draft for us, basically who were the guys he went to bat for when we were on the clock. I have a gut feeling that a couple of the guys we picked high were guys he certainly signed off on. On another note: It'd be amazing to sit in on a draft and actually see the inner workings and behind the scenes dealings that take place in the war room. Probably an amazing setting for any die hard football fan. If someone gave me the choice of a pair of Super Bowl tickets or an invitation to sit in on the Bills draft it would be a no brainer: Bills war room (I know many would disagree, but that's just me)
  24. Yea, i can imagine it being difficult to upgrade 4 seats together. Where are your current seats located?
  25. I know that the seat relocations for season ticket holders has started up again and will be ongoing the next week or so. Just wanted to see what other season ticket holders were experiencing as far as upgrades. With a seniority date of 6/4/2002 my call in date was today, May 11. This morning I got through at about 9:05AM and upgraded a set of 2 tickets (Section 115, Row 27) and 2 tickets (Section 114, Row 28) to 4 tickets together (Section 113, Row 6). Would have liked to get higher than row 10, but this was the best they could do and it's tough to turn down a 1 & 2 section upgrade towards midfield. Anyhow, like I said I wanted to hear about the jumps other fellow season ticket holders received. Feel free to chime in. Also for anyone sitting between the 40 yard lines, how long did it take to get there? I'm at about the 25 yard line after 7 years and wanted to know how much longer I have to go for true midfield tickets. Thanks guys!
