This argument will never fly with me. The player gets up front money. The money is his weather he sucks or excells. Its the contract equalizer. Once the player takes that bonus money the teams only obligation to the player is his yearly salary. So if the team wants to opt out of a contract they'll lose the bonus money!

I think Youboty will be on the roster when the season starts. The rooks (either or both Corner and Cox) may be PS guys. ST may be the deciding factor. If one of the rooks become an April guy, then yes I can see us cutting ties with Youboty. Is Cleveland still interested?

I guess I didn't remember correctly then.

They could play 70% of the snaps if the D could generate some 3 and outs. i.e. give themselves a rest.

I don't post much but I read a lot on TBD. I have been pretty surprised that not much has been said about the reports on how well the O has played the last couple of weeks. If I remember correctly, last year our D, for the most part, owned the O though out OTAs and the preseason. It's nice to hear that both units are making plays this year. If they keep it up, I may have to change my pessimistic ways.

Yeah it works so well for the Bungles.

Other. There was no "all of the above".

Have an entire division take the bye week at the same time. Or better yet get rid of the bye week all together!!!!!!!

Surprise Defense Positive… Reggie Corner will be starting @ nickel. Greer allocated to 4th. Surprise Defense Negative… Our run D will only be slightly improved from last year. No particular reason just a gut feeling. I really hope I’m wrong here! Surprise Offense Positive… Steve Johnson will be the 4th WR behind Evans, Hardy, and Reed. Surprise Offense Negative… I haven’t seen anything from Parish that tells me he is more than a ST’s player. I think he falls farther down the depth chart on offense.

I was in a restaurant in Mexico City during their nation championship match. Not that I know anything about soccer, because I don't, but the crowd seemed cheer for the silliest plays. Oh and best I can remember the score was 1-0 with maybe 5 total shots on goal. Not my idea of excitement.

I think the NFL should just stop the draft at 3 rounds. After all it's all ST'ers and camp folder atfer that anyway. We should be able to get those guys in FA. Unless the guy is a P or K or a return specialist then drafting for ST's makes zero sense for a team that had the one of the worst O and D in the NFL! If you are a stacked playoff caliber team, and just need to fill a couple of spots in the first few rounds, then yes use the later rounds to fill your ST's. The Bills aren't one of those teams yet.

So when do we get a pass receiving TE then? With this logic we could be drafting 5 more CB's before the draft is over, but at least they will be the best player availiable. The only thing I can figure is that they know Mckelvin will be gone in 4 to 5 years. So they groom this guy in that time and get him to resign cheap because he won''t have that much playing time in.

I admit I voted B. We are doing very good, but if the Bills get Davis I'll change my tune to A for sure. Or if we get another WR (Sweed or Kelley) in with are next pick I'll love it.

I don't like it! Every other position on the team can have open competition but not QB. The players need stability at the QB position. That's what Evans complained about all last year. Come on coach make a decision, let it be known, and stick with it. I'm tried of all the waffling.

Don't know if this was posted already or not, but the NFL Network was saying last night that NE has the easiest schedule in the NFL next year.

I'd like to hear Rick Jeanneret do a Bills game. That guy can make watching grass grow sound exciting.

I was very optimistic this off-season, until I read an interview with DJ that said the O game plan would not change much from last year. I know I know where my link? I don't have one. Even if I did I wouldn't know how to include it here. But if you have been reading the papers the last few months you read it too. I'm hoping it was his way of playing his cards close to the vest.

True, but it still leaves the ref with a judgement call as to what's a carry and and what's a push. I just don't think they can make the rule black and white. At some point they have to determine that he would have been in bounds if not for the DB.

Well maybe our DB aren't strong enough to carry a WR out of bounds, but if I was a coach I certainly would be insisting that they try!

I wonder what's to stop the DB from grabbing the WR 5 yards in bounds and carring him out of bounds w/o letting the WR's feet touch?

Throw a pass on first down. Blitz a LB. Play to win instead of not to lose.

I didn't know that before I read the list, and that's why I thought of him. But after learning he was already there, and Bruce was not I knew it had to be Bruce.

When I read the title of the post my first reaction was Kent Hull. But after seeing the names listed I think Bruce for sure.

Great stuff guys! Thanks. It sounds like Sweed may be the better selection then? If he is the more NFL ready player.

If Sweed is healthy, it sounds like either one would be OK. Thanks!
