http://www.buffalonews.com/185/story/40822.html well said--> this makes me wanna get in line for bills v ravens tix

Agreed!

if that's the case they have less than 2 weeks to sign him before other teams get a shot march 1st. My ? is are they even negotiating right now with Nate. Screw London I love him but he is way too old for the $$$ he will be seeking....

I guess Marv is so usually well spoken and in command and yes was a breath of fresh air after TD but today I was blown away by several of his comments...everyone in B-lo heard Willis' comments and he didn't??? He wasn't aware of the Franchise Tag terms, says he loves the WR corps but later says they will look to improve WR. Aaron Merz possible solution to OL? etc. To me today he was all over the place, like Howard Simon said I wished this was a rah rah we have the 2nd most cap room to spend, this is what we're going to do..... I all heard today was trying to re-sign their own and bank on that and look for another RB to challenge WM. It sounded like complete confusion...how many times did Marv say he wasn't sure or didn't know or wasn't aware of that? If Marv is GM for PR purposes today the Bills PR campaign failed.

In my opinion they should....and I until now had nothing but great things to say about Marv but today he was either unprepared or extremely overwhelmed with FA and the draft coming up. I got no sense of directon as other posters have said....Keep in mind it wasn't Shoop bashing Marv it was Howard which carries more weight

Is it me or does Marv appear to be dazed and confused....he wasn't sure if franchise tag meant top 5 or top 10 salaries, didn't know about Willis' comments, salary cap confusion and in general appears to be unprepared. To me who the hell is the GM? It's very obvious now that Marv is nothing more than a PR move and others are runnings the show....obviously with his input. Further he doesn't appear to be up on the latest NFL news concerning players who want trades dre bly, the draft, etc. I totally agree with howard!!!! totally unprepared can't wait to hear Sully's comments on this one!@

agree totally----however what did we all expect when we draft over-hyped recent players from the so-called U?

personally I hope it's Zach Miller (JP needs another receiving threat) though might be too high to take a TE....with that in mind however, after reading this and knowing Marv's infatuation with "character guys" and our pressing need along the OL the pick will be Justin Blalock. http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dw...ck.26b33e6.html

Does anyone know or remember the sabre's game schedule full color calenders that featured the opponents logo along with gray or gold shaded (away/home) game days along with a pic of a player for a particular month?? in the 80's as a kid i remember them but haven't seen them around. Are they still available for sale somewhere or me just wishful thinking??? rather than make my own with excel and get fired, i'd rather support the local economy if possible....Thanks

I've been under a rock past 3 days working my bones off haven't heard who exactly is at the Senior Bowl. Is Tom Modrak?? i don't think marv nor DJ are there as the staff isn't all together.....Anyone have any reports re: Bills officials there? I'm worried that we don't have any Coordinators there unless Fairchild took a redeye???? I did see chargers scouts and others like the titans staff but they are coaching i believe. Thanks

AFter reading this/........it does make AJ Hawk (if available @ #8) a real sexy hard to pass pick!

You've got to be kidding right, while Pittsburgh's offense was based on the run, the fact remains though with all the steelers injuries on line and at RB in 2004, ben shouldered a helluva lot more than what you are thinking....give the kid his due as he more than avoided the sophmore jinx with another fine season again this year!!!

....LOL get ready it should be fun! I got my tums ready after Wilson's stumbled monotone/.

LOL jerry sullivan perhaps??? on a sidenote, my buddy interns currently at OBD. he stated this AM that there is a very melancholy mood circulating around. Some are shocked, most not sure what to believe, others like 1 asst coach he saw are relieved as they feel DJ will retain them. Many thought Sherman would have wanted to clean house. My friends opinion of course...FYI

i think it's just frustration from the start of last season thru now--everyone wants instant gratification like the old days yet i hardly doubt 2 80+ administrators are up to the task. there has not been much lately to be positive about and people are just venting. Take it in stride. i for one have my doubts about the new coach let alone levy but as you said time will tell. I feel though looking at his qualificatioins versus others out there people are having a hard time believing that marv's choice is a good one. Much like a candidate applying for a job, qualifications must be looked at. Looking at DJ's qualifications hardly speak volumes compared to other candidates i.e. Sherman--hence the peoples frustrations. Like everyone else on this board, we want a winner and certainly bringing someone in with a winning background sure would help our optimism.
