  1. Defensive linemen take the longest to develop sometimes out of all of the positions. This is mainly because of the size of the offensive linemen, the rookies coming out of college need time to lift weights and build upper body strength to compete. Anderson will take some time to develop.

    Yeah-hopefully on some other team's practice squad. The way Kyle Williams stuffed the run, that's the only play I have time for. Paitence is thin waiting for these high motor guys to develop, if ever.

  2. Just curious, were your expenses high compared to the income? I write stuff off all the time without receipts, especially milage, tolls , parking etc . I have always been worried an audit. But, whats the worse that can happen, ya gotta pay some tax. Worse things in life i spose

    Yes, like I said I do not get reinbursed for anything I put out. I traveled to Kentucky from Florida that year, and paid expenses- including rent and utilities in both states all from one paycheck. Thanks, I probably will have to pay something.

  3. How extensive is the audit?  I have had partial and phone audits where they asked specific questions and I have to follow up with details in the mail.  Never been called in for a full line by line audit.

    Actually it is just a mail in audit right now. I can get cancelled checks and bank statements, since everything does have somewhat of a paper trail. Thanks for an intelligent response, I seem to have gotten the "Three Stooges" to help me along so far...Just thought maybe a good tax person, or even someone who travels at times might chime in. Silly me.

  4. Gates looks good so far.  He has had 3-4 nice runs.  Great effort on the TD.  Been the best back so far.

     

    Willis only got 3 touches.......

     

    A-Train hasn't done much.

    Ps. Kyle Williams looks good on defense!

    Somebody finally mentioned Kyle Williams.....good news!!!

  5. Some Contract Details: The deal signed by Donte Whitner is the second largest rookie contract in team history behind Mike Williams's deal. It is for five years, instead of the six allowed by the collective barganing agreement. He is expected to earn around $29 Million with more than $13 Million of that guaranteed. He will get 15 percent more than last year's no. 8 pick and $12 Million more than the no. 9 pick in this year's draft.

    That is alot, I saw that. Let's just hope this guy brings it hard every Sunday for the next 5 years.....

  6. The interesting thing is what this means about the back-ups,  Former starter Posey is the back-up for Crowell and this makes sense and will be good for the Bills if this holds true.  Ezekial is listed as the back-up to Fletcher and I doubt this and hope that traded for forner MLB starter Watsib takes the #2 job, Haggan is the back-up for TKO which might work but I actually prefer Posey to Haggan as the #2 SLB.

     

    I would guess that Stamer and Ellison also make this squad which brings us to 8 LBs, but Wendell Humter is apparently having a good camp in this first week so because LBs demographically fit for ST roles maybe we end up with 9 but i doubt this.

    I would expect Posey to be released if he does indeed get beat out. His salary is as a starter, not back-up. This would be a good thing all the way around.

  7. For the home opener. Just got my tickets on e-bay. This is only the second time in 5 years I have been able to make it from Fla. Had a BLAST the last time, can't wait. Met some awesome people. My Jets buddy will be with me again. Who ever had that giant hot-tub in the parking lot- thanks for the shots!!

  8. Reading the article on TBD from The Sports Xchange mentioned the Bills' signing of 4-year veteran DE Mark "My" Word.  This didn't sound familiar to me so I wondered if it was a recent move. Bills Daily shows it as a 1/19/06 signing.  Either I missed this one or forgot it.

     

    I looked up info on him and found that he had 8 sacks for Cleveland in 2002 and also played for them in 2003 with 4 sacks.  That's only 2 years.  What's he been doing since??

     

    Seems like he was forgotten also by other posters who mentioned the Bills had only the 3 returning DEs in Schobel, Kelsay and Denney plus the undrafted free agent signings.

     

    Anybody know more about Word??

    Guess I was as bored as you- I also looked up his stats. Better than anyone we have,

    start him! He has NFL experience and 12 friggin' sacks. But to answer your question- I don't know anything else about him......

  9. Thank Technology for Sirius 'Replay'!!!

    Basically it hurt the team and it hurt JP by 'giving' him the job last year.......

    Holcum out-played JP in camp and in the season and should've started.

    Takeo's injury hurt the team on the field & in the locker room.

    Mularky couldn't build a staff being a lame duck coach

    Now the #1 goal is to build a solid organization & commit to win.

    Marv is headed in the right direction & he likes Jauron.

    Wow. Thanks. It always puts everything in perspective to hear a star player speak out.
