:sigh: And with that...I'm out.

And the SEC just keeps getting tougher. It's hard to watch them beat up on each other every year.

Wrong side of the ball, but I think McGee would stay with the play. Maybe not, but he seems like he wouldn't give up.

Bull. This all started when Stevens was asked about Bettis playing in his home town. He said it was nice for him, but it would be sad that he wasn't going to win. What the hell was he supposed to say? "Yeah, I really hope he can win this one." And while everyone is taking it way out of proportion, Porter isn't helping matters. He just wants to be the center of attention during SB week. Whatever. I don't have high hopes, but I really hope Pitt loses this game.

How'd they look the last 10?

If you're looking for a player to drop so that we can make the switch, it's Mario Williams. While it woudn't be the greatest bunch in the league, we already have 4 solid LB's. Move Spikes inside with Fletcher and let Crowell and Posey (who played pretty well in Houston's 3-4) have the outsides. Mario Williams and Schoebel would be able to handle the ends. This still leaves DT, but IF Washington could be brought back in, he and Sam would be okay controlling the NT spot. I believe with that line-up, and Cotrell running the D, we could successfully make the switch this year. How possible is it? I think the Washington thing could happen, but no way Mario drops to 8. We would have to trade up to take him, and it just wouldn't be worth it. Not with all the help the O-line needs. BTW...I LOVE the 3-4! I would love to see this happen if it were possible.

Yeah...this has entered the realm of complete and utter stupidity. What was even the point???? Move this thing to the fantasy board.

Well, it explains a lot to me... http://www.stadiumwall.com/index.php?showuser=1040

No, not like that. Like if Kollar had been hired as the assistant DL coach. Wouldn't make much sense if there wasn't a DL coach to begin with.

I think Spencer will go early second round...I'm just hoping it's us who takes him. (Unless Gilles is still there, but he should be gone) Maybe in Anthony in round 3....4 would be better. : ) No, I didn't see the SB. I was working and didn't get a break to watch it.

The Fergeson debate is pointless...he won't be around. I don't know anything about Smith, but I doubt we go Safety. I would love to get Spencer, and I'm really hoping be is around for our second pick. But every draft writeup I"ve seen says he will play guard in the NFL. I have a feeling we will just miss out on him.

He is a pro bowl alternate. Whether he got there by "name" or not, his stock wasn't hurt THAT much.

Looking at your sig... Will other teams be drafting, or just the Bills?

That "46" number just seems to follow him around, doesn't it?

Yeah, well....at least we have the same reaction to that part of it.

My point wasn't so much that everyone would critize everything that happens, but there are ALWAYS people who will critize, no matter what is done. If Parcells was hired, there would be a handful of people who would be shouting about the new found Belichick stat. As for what you say about Jauron, I agree that fans have every right to be skeptical of the hire, but the way people are acting right now is insane. The biggest problem I have is that everyone seems to be comparing him the the "Great Sherman of Green Bay", but I just don't see what all the excitement was about with him. Yes, his record was better, but it is very hard to honestly compare the two situations that they were in. And while other teams weren't clamoring to get to Jauron, there was no line for Sherman either. Unlike most here, I do not think we "settled" for Jauron. I truly do believe that he was hired because Marv/Ralph believe he can get the job done. Now whether he can or not is truly up in the air, but I just can't stand the comparisons to Sherman. And looking around the league, there were no "great" hires this off-season. The coaches simply were not out there. Really, the only HC hiring this season that I think is better than ours is Kubiak in Houston, and that is nothing more than my opinion. I don't have a problem with people being "realistic", so no forgiveness needed.

errr....Clayton.

You think there is something that can be done on OBD that won't get a bunch of negative posts?????

The only place that was ever seen was right here on TBD. Soprano said it when Jaraun got into town. As far as anyone knows, Sherman was never in the lead for the job and never negotiated anything.

Yeah, but other than that...

From NFL Draft countdown

Me too. Normally I hate that too, but if this is in reference to the FFS post yesterday...that was pretty funny.

I would still bring in Ngata. Sam and Ted on Running downs, Sam and Ngata on Passing downs. Whoo....that would be hell on O-lines. Schobel would love it too!
