  1. A team with less discipline would have let that fake go for a 1st down.
  2. I'm no longer a fan of Whaley, but I wouldn't say he's been a COMPLETE failure. That's a bit much. He has, however, made some absolutely crucial miscalculations. 1. Trading picks to get Sammy. First round picks are gold, and any WR can have injuries that keep them off the field. It was a huge risk - too big IMHO - and now Whaley is paying for it. Watkins can't stay on the field, and who knows who that lost pick would have netted. 2. Not getting a good backup for Watkins this year. He really did nothing to get a backup for a guy who he knew would head into the year still recovering. Really stupid. 3. Not getting adequate depth at TE. Beyond Clay - who has been average - our TEs suck. These are huge errors that have pretty much prevented us from being competitive this year. Not sure if Whaley will be fired, but these are big problems, and he is the cause.
  3. I think the main problem is that there's really one really good WR on the roster - Watkins. There's one good TE - Clay. After that, our receiving capability is really horrible. This is Whaley's biggest mistake, and one so glaring he deserves to be called out for it and maybe fired. There are some significant holes on the roster that have been ignored for years.
  4. They also don't always need to seek the friggin negative angle. We've got one moron Jerry Sullivan, we don't need more people deciding they want to be stupid, too.
  5. At least there's a nod to the Beatles in there. But the nod to the Monkees cancel it out because they suck.
  6. First benefit of 30 days without Brady: fewer maxi pads in the garbage
  7. Because Dareus is the best DL on the team, and top 10 in the NFL. Karlos? He was gaining his weight back and not even top 3 on the team. I bet it would have been different if he was a pro-bowl player.
  8. Knock it off. Well, yes, someone could pick him up for nothing, I agree. I would think that is much more likely than someone giving the Bills a pick for him.
  9. What kind of garbage are you going to post with your 44th post? Something equally as insightful, I hope.
  10. I'm kinda sick of stupid comments like this.
  11. Nobody will trade for a guy who is suspended.
  12. I can't keep track of all the rankings people are inventing. What's next?
  13. Who is this Sullivan you speak of? I don't know who this person is. Seriously, life is more pleasant when I don't read his crap. I don't click on a link that I know is is, and I sure as hell don't support any advertisers who are on his page if I happen to land on one of his "articles." The only way to ignore him is by not giving the Buffalo News the page views and let the advertisers know I will avoid them if I see an ad on one of his pages.
  14. Check out their cap numbers. Tight. Wouldn't make sense to cut a backup you are already paying for a guy who really isn't any better.
  15. The Bills really CAN'T CUT EJ! How many times do people have to post that here? His salary is guaranteed, so it makes zero sense. EJ gets paid and counts against the salary cap no matter if he's on the team or not. It isn't a complex situation to figure out.
  16. The thing to remember is that he's a 3RD ROUND PICK!!!! I think you draft for potential 3 years down the road in the 3rd and below. Each round you need to afford more risk, and draft for long-term upside because that's how you have to look at those players. Obsessing over taking a DL over an OL in the 3rd round because it was an immediate need is absolutely insane. Chill, dude.
  17. No way the Bills should give up the 19th pick for a 2nd and 3rd. That's an insulting offer. Maybe a 1st next year and a 2nd.
  18. Generally reading the comments this draft week makes me think that people are generally stupid, or at least go "full retard" whenever they approach a keyboard. I'm amazed at how many people think of the success of a draft in terms of what a player can do THIS YEAR vs. planning for the future. I don't profess to know much about the draft or evaluating players, but I do know abou the Bills, their needs, and their needs 2 or 3 down the road. Do you want to be successful? Plan ahead.
  19. Whaley is an excellent GM. I'd love to hear some support for statements like that rather than one-liner punts.
  20. Lots of great soundbites. Maybe you should support your positions with actual facts and stuff. I mean, I know facts are tough things, but let's hear them!
  21. Clearly, they will find another way to cheat, as obviously the first few times didn't prevent it. I mean, if you think we know about ALL the ways they've cheated, you are fooling yourself.
  22. That's amazing. The best pick (possibly) in the history of the NFL, surrounded by mediocre (at best) picks. Proves that it really was a lucky pick in many ways. I don't know if Brady would have been as good without Belichick, and vice-versa. I really think that dumb luck created an amazing dynasty. I don't doubt that the Pats would have been a good team without Brady, and maybe won a SB, but there's no way they would have done what they did for the past 15 years without Brady. They certainly wouldn't have dominated the AFC east the way they did.
  23. Past results don't indicate future performance, but keep crusading.
  24. I agree 100%. There's no doubt that's what the pick will be. Bank on it.
