Dockery and Mike Williams. Can't believe the Redskins put those 2 on the field together.

Pathetic but true. Whoever is leading the coaching search needs to be shown the door. How hard is it to find out someone's interest before officially asking for an interview? It's just common sense. I've never heard someone turn down an interview for a head gig unless it was a minority candidate. That's because no other organization is dumb enough to ask for an interview from someone who might turn down the interview. Even the Raiders aren't this dumb.

Redskins are the pretty girl with a crazy father. Bills are the average/below average girl with a crazy father.

If Ralph spent half as much energy putting a winning team on the field as he does crying poor about revenue sharing, we wouldn't have missed the playoffs the last 10 years. Must be nice to be canonized for keeping a team in Buffalo, all the while making upwards of a billion dollars doing so. Ralph has the easiest job in the world. Keep putting a garbage product on the field, cry poor while collecting $30-40m in profits every year, then remind the low self-esteemed people in WNY how lucky they are to still have a team. Anybody ever think the real reason he has no public succession plan is once the people of WNY realize the team isn't moving anywhere, Ralph might actually have some pressure to put a winner on the field.

I thought Marty Schottenheimer was the only realistic 'name' coach Bills had a shot at. I'd take his kid, especially if Marty is involved in some capacity... defensive coordinator, asst head coach, etc. I really hope the Jets lose this weekend. The longer this goes, the more stale and unattractive the Bills job becomes than it already is.

I like the fact that he knows the AFC East. Playing Belichik twice a year can expose many a coach.

It would be easy for Cowher to come out and say he's not interested in Bills job and put all this to bed. Most likely scenario is Cowher using Bills as leverage for a yet-to-be-open job. Makes it difficult for any other big name like Schottenhiemer the elder or Billick to swallow their pride and be Buffalo's 2nd choice.

Reid was given a 3 year extension last month. Phillips is the only coach in danger. Can't remember an off-season with less coaching changes? If Bills can't find a quality head coach now, they never will.

I agree. He doesn't look like he says great upper body strength. He also didn't look very explosive. I didn't see him shed blocks very well. He's good no doubt, but last night left me wondering if he doesn't benefit greatly from the Alabama Defensive Lineman giving him free lanes to the ball.

This reminds me of Bills-Cowboys Super Bowl also played at the Rose Bowl.

Bulaga looks pretty good. Powerful dude, huge lower body. Hard to tell if he has the quickness to excel at Left Tackle, but he looks like he could definitely play anywhere else.

The Bills could do a lot worse. I always found him to be a little full of hot air. But Baltimore is a blue collar, cold-weather team and he won there.

Depends how much money these guys are due to make. Plus, some of these guys like Youboty might be Restricted Free Agents. My guess based on what they make is Whitner, Mitchell, Stroud, Kelsay, Denny, and Parrish.

Chicago won so we currently can't pick lower than 9th. Oakland and Seattle are the only other teams we can jump and they have to win and then have a better strength of schedule.

I disagree with this. He has been over-analyzed and picked apart more than any other prospect, similar to Michael Oher. His arm strength is light years better than Pennington. Tebow was throwing lasers last night all over the field, regardless of how good the defenders were. Like any college player, you have to look at what he can be at the NFL level, not what he was asked to do or what system he ran in college. He does have Leftwich mechanics, but I think he has a better chance to overcome that than Leftwich because Leftwich is a poor athlete and not a hard worker as evidenced by his weight problems. I wouldn't have a problem taking Tebow in the 1st round once the super-blue chippers are gone, like Suh, McCoy, and maybe some of the Left Tackles.

I'd love to have Tebow as a developmental QB who can be used in short yardage situations, but he is a luxury this team can't afford with all the other needs. Pike doesn't have the arm strength to play in Buffalo.

I agree. And if the draft order holds and Bradford or Claussen get past all of those QB-needy teams to our pick, why would the Bills know something all those teams don't? Thus, don't see the Bills getting a QB with their 1st pick. In terms of picking a QB after the 1st round, is Brohm just as good of a developmental pick as any QB the Bills could have in this draft after the 1st round?

Like Weis, but not sure he's got enough presence to be head coaching material. Gotta be able to motivate these guys every week. Much more to it than X's and O's.

Record-wise, probably the same or worse. Can't polish this turd anymore. Re-building year.

Where's he going? The only team I could see going after Owens is Oakland, since they crave the circus atmosphere and need to sell tickets. He's not good enough anymore. Look at Dallas and the improvements Romo has made with Owens gone. Even when Owens keeps his mouth shut, the circus still travels with him. It's gonna take a desperate team to sign him. Wouldn't be surprised if he pulls an Iverson and retires, but for good.

Maybe Ralph will see the light and realize he's gotta let go. No one who has other options or doesn't have a sentimental connection to Buffalo is coming here with a 91 year old owner who has no succession plan in place. Even if Ralph ran a tip-top organization, which he clearly doesn't, why would Shanahan or Cowher come here when there is a high probability they will have a new boss before their contract is up and Ralph can't even guarantee where the team will be when he moves on?

The worst part is Maybin hasn't shown any flashes of potential. He gets nowhere near the QB on his rushes and doesn't even get upfield. Brain farts aside, you want to see some talent when he's out there. Other than long arms, there's hasn't been much to feel positive about. He ain't gonna go somewhere and magically make himself better. Horrible article... every player had to work hard to get to the NFL. The issues arise when a guy is given $13-14m guaranteed, does he still keep his hunger?

The brief amount of time he's been on the field has been a disaster. The onside kick and lining up in the neutral zone and extending a drive that ended up in points against the Jets... I totally understand why the coaches don't wanna put him on the field. This one's on the front office for using their 1st round pick on a guy not physically or mentally ready to play in the NFL. If he's a street free agent, does he even make the team?

Peterson's injury history dropped him to the #7 pick. Hope the Bills can be as lucky as the Vikings were. I have no problem taking a QB, OT, or DL/LB who can rush the passer with our top 7-8 pick. Any other position that high and you better be sure you're getting a perennial Pro Bowler.

Never thought I'd see Mike Williams (the 400lb bust) lined up at WR. I wouldn't even let Zorn come out of the locker-room after that play.
