The fact that the charges were dropped is equal to the fact that O.J. is innocent. DUHHH!

I remember reading the article when the cops were called to her apartment and she had bruises after the incident. Unless "she beat herself up" I'm quite sure Lynch played a part in it. I'm quite sure "hush-money" from his agent played a part in her not pursuing the matter and dropping the charges.

True, but the fact that he battered his girlfriend certainly can't sit too well with Marv. Plus, he did grow up in a poor neighborhood etc. and because of his "lack of smarts" he is what NFL teams consider a risk come Draft time because they don't know what he will do when a player with his mentality gets millions dropped into his hands.

Do you guys really think Marv is going to take a player with character concerns?? I don't! Also, I saw one of his interviews on NFL Network and the guy is dumber than a box of rocks! Not gonna Happen!!!!

Character issues! Not a Marv guy!

To win in this league you have to run the ball and stop the run" a quote from Marv Levy back in the days when the Bills dominated the AFC! After suffering through last season with a patchwork offensive line, Marv is going back to what he believes in to bulid this team. As I have stated before on this forum, I tell it like it is = No Candy-Coating! With all that said, I like the agressiveness of the Bills organization today!

Bulldog is a Hockey nut, he could care less about football at this time of the year. Shopp thinks he knows everything, but actually knows nothing. The solution: Sirius NFL Radio

Not after "blowing it up" at the Indy Combine. Take Willis!

Sirius NFL Radio

Resiging Kelsay was a goood move, never said it wasn't! But what they PAID for him was ridiculous! Case in point = The Sporting News Scouting Guide for NFL Players has Kelsay rated as the 53rd Best DE in the game (doesn't make enough big plays is one of their assessments). Rated as an ADEQUATE STARTER. I haven't seen the production on the field to warrant such a contract. Would you go to the grocery store and pay $50 dollars for a 16oz container of mustard??? Well, thats what they did! It's not just me that is bringing this up, it's the talk of the league!

I don't recall there being 4 other teams interested in Price (but if they were it would have been for somewhere just over the veteran minimum) but you hit the nail right on the head and it's the point that I'm trying to make: Paying players according to value!

Paying and Over-Paying are two different things! The Kelsay contract is the "talk of the league" and you can bet that several NFL teams aren't too happy with the contract because they are driving up the market for free agent players.

My whole point is: The Bills are griping about Money and they go out and overpay Kelsay. Makes no sence!

Whitner was a good pick in the Draft, but he was taken too high. I feel they overpaid for him too because they had to pay him Top 10 money because they drafted him in the 8th slot when they could have moved down to #15 Denvers slot which would have made more sence. Kelsay is a fringe starter who would likely be a backup End on most other NFL teams. His production on the field doesn't warrant that type of contract, plus the Draft is deep at the defensive end position.

It doesn't matter if we weren't in cap trouble the deal was bad from a business standpoint because there wasn't a market for Price (nobody wanted him). We could have probably offered him somewhere around the veteran minumum and he would still have signed. Just like the Cowboys deal with T.O.,they too waaay overpaid for him because the only other team that was interested in him was the Broncos and they decided to pass on him before the Cowboys offered him the money.

Right from the horses mouth: I saw the Kelsay interview and HE even admitted that the Bills EXCEEDED his expectations! I just feel they could have signed him for less and from what Kelsay said, they could have. My Point is: Super Pirss Poor Money Management, just like overpaying Price last year!

True, but I saw the Kelsay interview and he even admitted that the Bills EXCEEDED his expectations! I just feel they could have signed him for less and from what Kelsay said, they could have.

You bet your arss we did! I just can't believe the numbers!

I've been critical of Marv in the past and I've posted several threads about how I feel the team will take a step back this season, but I do think that trading Willis is the thing to do while you can get something for him which they should have done with Clements last season. I'll take a 4th round pick (hopefully a high 4th) for him and move on. There are plenty of good players still available in the 4th round. If they do trade Willis, my guess is they will be targeting PSU Hb Tony Hunt in the second round IF he is still available when we pick.

He was arrested for "beating up" his now former girlfriend. The charges were later dropped (I'm sure $$ talked there).

The Bills would be very lucky to get a second round pick for Willis! A first round pick is out of the question.

Never happen with Marv as GM because of his character issues.

The Giants are one of the interested teams but won't part with a first day pick. http://blogs.nydailynews.com/giants/archiv..._on_mcgahee.php

I can see him going before Branch because the kid is just 19 years old and should easily become a 315 lb lineman in a few years. He has a tremendous upside and won't get past the Falcons picking 10th since his former Coach Petrino will have a hard time passing him up. I like Branch, but Okoye has a better upside.

Indianapolis = Polian Yup!
