  1. I actually believe that RT is by far a bigger need than Guard. You can essentially move any of Henderson, Richardson, and Kouandjio into the middle with Chris Williams coming back and Urbik. I'm not saying guard isn't a need but there is a lot of youth you can plug in while I have no faith in either Henderson or Kouandjio as the long term RT
  2. Chris Hairston wont count towards the formula. He was an RFA who was non tendered. Essentially he was released by the Bills. Even if he signs he wont count.
  3. The Bills are setting themselves up nicely for compensatory picks for 2016. As of this moment the Bills have added 2 people who can be counted against the Bills Tyrod Taylor 2 years 7 Million Jerome Felton 4 years 9.3 million Percy Harvin will not be counted because he was released by the Jets. At the current moment, The Bills have lost 4 Free Agents: RB C.J Spiller 4 years 18 Million S D'Norris Searcy 4 years 22 Million OG Erik Pears 2 years TE Lee Smith 3 years 9 Million Scott Chandler, who signed with the Pats, will not count against the formula either. The Bills are rumored to be interested in Charles Clay which would add another player making 3 but we still also have Brandon Spikes as a possibility to be signed by another team bringing our total loss to 5. Depending on the situation at this current time, I see the Bills receiving either 2 or 3 compensatory picks next year.
  4. E.J. Manuel has been the same player that he has always been since his Freshman year at Florida State. He'll make a play or two that will make you pop but his constant inaccuracy and slow decision making is an absolute killer. He has not progressed in this area very much at all since he was a highly touted freshmen. He will never improve in this area. People can point to his college stats all they want but I actually watched the guy for 4 years in college and he, with his average play, cost Florida State a legitimate shot at the 2012 National Championship. I shook my head when Buffalo drafted him cause I knew on day one this guy wasn't going to be anything more than a backup QB in the league. Its not gonna happen and I think the Bills brass has realized this as well which is why at this point a journeyman NFL guy is a better option. Great kid not a great QB
  5. Yea cause the scouts were so in love with him that they let him drop to the 2nd round. Getting stuff off walterfootball which is nothing but the average joe fan doesn't help your cause. If Clausen was so highly thought of why wasn't he in consideration for # 1 by you know the actual people who make the decisions not the Mel kipers of the world
  6. https://twitter.com/kentsomers/status/569257791015268352 https://twitter.com/kentsomers/status/569259247525081089 https://twitter.com/Cardschatter/status/569257566863278080 http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/writer/dennis-dodd/24525604/in-195-hours-of-baseball-football-winston-is-nonstop-and-wants-more This is some of the stuff you dont hear about Winston. I know people will say oh so he did one good thing but last year ESPN was on a smeer campaign for clicks. Im not trying to change your mind, I can see why people don't like his character all the time but he's done a lot of good things for people as well which is something you dont hear about with him.
  7. This is the whole source of these guys on why I keep responding to them. If you think Winston is Clausen or even JaMarcus Russell who was extremely lazy about football then you dont know what your talking about. I have never once said that Winston will have a career like Brady, Montana, or Elway. I honestly think that Winston's floor is something like Matt Schaub. A guy who's around for 10-12 years has 3-4 really good years and is a high volume INT guy. His ceiling is probably Ben Roethlisberger. I know that is a common comparison but it makes a ton of sense. Same figure, same ability to get away from pressure. Has the ability to run but doesnt prefer it. The Roethlisberger comp as his ceiling is perfect. Jimmy Clausen being a comp is just blind hatred for someone spewing out of the mouth. When Dude is your best retort to an argument I know you dont have much besides the ESPN drivel you have heard for the last year.
  8. No I don't like Johnny Manziel at all actually because I knew he wouldn't be a good NFL QB just like I cringed when the Bills drafted Manuel. Manuel will never be a good starting NFL QB. I am not blind because I like Florida State. I call it like I see it. I wouldn't touch either Mario Edwards Jr. or Ronald Darby and both of them are highly thought of draft prospects from FSU. If you can't see the football acumen in Winston then your blind I don't know what to tell you. He was so far ahead of everybody today in drills including Mariotta.
  9. Dude he faced adversity all year. He got hit a ton. He had a young receiving corps. They were behind numerous games and with the exception of Oregon he led them back every time. His mental makeup is fantastic. He picked up Jimbo Fishers offense incredibly quick which is a pro system. He was accepted into Stanford coming out of high school. I take exception to this as a FSU fan. The dude will not be Ponder because his physical tools are far superior to him. He won't be Manual because his football processing information is way better. ITa amazing how you bring up Roethlisberger to me. Wasn't he accused of raping someone in a bar? Man his football makeup is gonna be terrible. What a bust he'll be. Give me a break. Dude was proven innocent of the rape allegations 3 separate times by the state attorney, by the Tallahassee PD, and by a reputable 3rd party judge in the code of conduct hearing at the school. Screaming FHITP is something stupid that every young guy has done one time or another in some manner. If she was raped why didn't she file a civil suit? Why is she doing a documentary about her story for money? Why are there rumors of her asking for 7 million dollars to keep her mouth shut. Why is she apart of a group called the cleat chasers. Your probably the type of guy that was repulsed when you found out the Duke Lacrosse team raped the two girls and then it was later found out they both lied about it for attention.
  10. Yea except he went 3-0 against the SEC in his 2 years including the uh national championship against Auburn. He also beat Notre Dame, Oklahoma State. Plus the ACC at the top was pretty good this year. They beat a really good GT team who beat both Georgia and Miss St(SEC). Clemson is also a real good program and Louisville is solid. Yea the ACC has Wake Forest and Virginia but every conference has a couple powderpuffs
  11. Carden is a no go. Guy has a noodle arm. I've been most impressed by Fajardo and Bennett so far along with Hundley obviously
  12. Well Peyton Manning was terrible his first year with 24 INTS...guess that means Peyton Manning= Jimmy Clausen you heard it here first
  13. yup and won a national championship and had 8 come from behind victories showing he can overcome a lot of things. Yea he makes mistakes but people need to remember he only played college ball for 2 years and had a really in experienced WR corps this year. His offensive line was underacheiving all year until Erving went to Center and he still brought them back. I'm not saying he's a lock to be a stud but to me he has the it factor that players would love in the lockeroom.
  14. With the lack of quality interior offensive lineman it wouldnt surprise me if he went in the 3rd round.
  15. I agree, he'd be more like Delanie Walker than Vernon Davis in Greg Roman's offense.
  16. God O'Leary's hands are so good. I dont care if the dude ran a 4.93. All he has to do is find seams and have a QB stick it on him and its good. Guy doesn't drop anything.
  17. I think 40's are overrated as well it sort of depends what your looking for I guess. If your looking for an H-Back type guy then O'Leary is your guy. Great hands but not a huge catch radius. He'll be a high volume pass catcher but it wont be for big numbers If you looking for an inline blocking tight end you might want to take a look at a Nick Boyle or Ben Koyack. I'm actually a huge fan of Clive Walford. I dont know if he will last until 81 though. He would be an ideal trade down guy from 50. Maxx Williams is a good all around tight end but I dont think he'll be there.
  18. The best CFL guys are Ricky Ray who is 35 and Bo Levi Mitchell
  19. The Players at positions of need that have been getting a lot of rub are OG Johnathan Miller from Louisville, TE Wes Saxton Jr., QB Taylor Heinicke, WR Darren Waller for the East offense. Quayshawn Nealy is big time at LB. The West has players like Bobby Hart OT, and Malcolm Brown RB on offense and the west Defense has a bunch of good players who can go in the mid rounds like Chucky Hunter, Bryce Hager, Taiwan Jones, and Josh Shaw. Guard Jon Feliciano as well forgot about him.
  20. Isn't Ryan Mallett a FA as well? I'd be intrigued just because he doesnt have a proven nor unproven track record. The only problem is the Pats would know everything about him.
  21. I deep down think that Pep Hamilton will get the job when all is said and done. He has worked with Andrew Luck, Jay Cutler and numerous other QB's in the league. I think that's what the Bills are really hoping for. Someone who can develop E.J.
  22. What in the hell is he thinking. Did Spiller help him ..No he didn't but to look back to see where Collins is is completely bush league. Have you ever seen any QB legitemely look back 180 to see where a pass rusher is. Then to cough up the ball on top of that is just shake your head worthy.
  23. Well Ron Brooks has proven that he is no more than a try out player.
  24. This is called the "Ron Brooks sucks" drive for the Patriots. Every pass has been at Brooks. You would think...hey maybe we should give this Ross Cockrell guy a shot instead of watching him get beat every play.
