  1. Stated my opinion on the guy already, Nelson that is, and he has stated his. From his responses it seems like he is taking it personal in a way of sorts that some one would not want Nelson versus anyone else. Thank you for your response. :thumbsup:

  2. How in the heck is a 4.49 lumbering especially a kid known to run precise routes? Please explain that to me.

     

    Calm down bro'. It's not like we're talking bad about one of your family members. You're also not getting the 5% as his agent or anything. This love-fest for the guy is starting to get a little strange. Calm down and have a :thumbsup: Or maybe that's the problem, you get angry when you drink :blink:

  3. No. I think that the issue is that alot of people are after the same player this year. These "head of the class" guys would make an immediate impact on any team for the most part, except for Ryan and even he could make a contribution as a Rookie QB. The draft this year is better in some areas and lacking in others compared to years past as of right now. But no one really knows until these guys have been dressing for games on Sunday for a couple of years anyway to be honest.

  4. Yes, because the faster you are, the better you will be as a pro. :thumbsup:

     

    An unbelievable 122 receptions and 11 TDs mean nothing because he runs a 4.5. If I remember correctly, A guy named Reed ran a 'slow' 4.5 but no one could cover him.

     

    Oh boy.

     

    Are you talking about Josh Reed? They couldn't cover him because he was on the sidelines :blink:

  5. RAVENS TRYING TO GET TO NO. 2

    Posted by Mike Florio on April 26, 2008, 1:41 p.m.

    You know those reports about what will happen at No. 2, No. 3, and No. 4? Throw them out the window.

     

    Adam Schefter of NFL Network reports that the Ravens are actively trying to swing a trade to get to the No. 2 spot, which would put them in front of the Falcons, and allow them to pick Ryan.

     

    And this could prompt the Falcons the try to trade up to No. 2 as well, to prevent the Ravens from doing the deal.

     

    The Rams might prefer the latter option, since it would allow them to still get Chris Long, but at a lower salary slot and with an extra pick or two therafter in two.

     

    As a result, we wonder whether the Rams are the ones pushing the trade talk with Baltimore, in the hopes that they’ll scare the Falcons into moving up.

     

    What I'm getting from all of these reports is that people still don't really know jack, except for the fact that Jake Long is the #1 pick and signed by Miami. This would be an understandable move for the Ravens though, more understandable than moving back and taking Henne.

  6. It's the principle that a player cannot force a team to do anything because they're acting as emotional as a 13 year old girl. If the Bengals front office breaks on this one, anybody on that team will think they can demand to leave at any time. I liked Chad Johnson up until he started talking about how he makes the team and fills the stands by himself. It's Terrel Owens all over again. I HOPE that they stick to their guns on this one. I'm getting tired of these million-dollar cry babies.

  7. Al Davis is an idiot they also have Michael Bush who was going to be a high draft pick until he broke his leg last year. He should be able to go this year too. So they have Fartgas, Jordan and Bush but they're going to go for another RB?! They have greater needs to address than RB. How about a lineman to protect Russell and make the RB's they have more effective?

     

    I don't know about those guys taking a lineman high in the draft. They seem to have the same luck as we do with such recent selections. Atleast we cut Mike Williams, they're still letting Gallery collect a paycheck.

  8. RAIDERS TO TAKE MCFADDEN

    Posted by Mike Florio on April 26, 2008, 12:45 p.m.

    Well, the Chiefs are now on the clock.

     

    Michael Smith of ESPN reports that the Oakland Raiders will select Arkansas running back Darren McFadden with the fourth overall pick in the draft.

     

    The Raiders were able to make their decision because the Fins have signed Jake Long, and it’s being widely reported that the Rams will take Chris Long and the Falcons will select Matt Ryan at No. 2 and No. 3, respectively.

     

    So we’re actually a little bit ahead of where we would have been if the draft had started at noon.

     

    The Chiefs are on the clock.

     

    Kind of surprising because they just re-signed Fargas who had a breakout year and they still have Lamont Jordan....... for now. I think this means that they are going to dump Jordan, if this is really their selection. The guy is getting too much money to be 3rd on the depth chart. Don't be surprised if Oakland tries to trade him today.

  9. Not sure about production yet, but Will Franklin (4.37) and paul Hubbard (4.38) will scare a defense a heck of a lot more.

     

    We have Lee Evans who probably runs atleast a 4.35. He's our deep threat. We need a bigger posession-type WR like Sweed, Kelly, Thomas, or Hardy. Nelson will be alright if we can get him later on in the draft. The problem is he's not as big as Sweed or Hardy, he's not as fast as any of the others, and he doesn't really go up in the air to catch balls as well as the others named. Let the Skins have'm if they want to take him in the 2nd round.

  10. Parcells has made good moves for the Fins this offseason. This trade is just another example. Ayodele was going to become a problem because of Zach Thomas taking his starting spot. He was going to become a chronic whiner and Jones knew it. Fasano? I think the guy has alot of potential to be effective in the passing game. I'm a Notre Dame fan, so I watched the guy play in college every weekend. He has the tendency to drop a pass from time to time, but he also had a knack for finding a seam in the coverage as well. He was a good target for Brady Quinn when he had his "breakout" Junior season. To only give up a 4th and get both of these guys is a great move for the Fins, even though I hate to admit that.

  11. I don't know about comments, but what about body movements. Take a shot every time Rich Eisen raises one eyebrow when looking at someone like "The Rock". And for Tom Jackson, take a shot every time he holds his hands out in front of himself and shakes them like he's trying to choke somebody. :lol:

  12. 1st- With the Houston Texans who have their eyes fixated on getting Rashard Mendenhall, who is moving up on alot of draft boards right now. They have Chris Brown, Ahman Green, Ron Dayne, Darius Walker, and Chris Taylor right now at their RB position. In other words, they don't have anybody. In doing this, we would swap firsts and get their third round pick as well. This would drop us back to #18 and allow us to take a WR at the appropriate spot for the value of any of these guys we've looked at to fill a spot as our #2. Also piling up another 3rd rounder as well. Possible? Maybe. But the Texans may just want to hang back and see what RB will fall to them. Either Mendenhall, Stewart, or Felix Jones and take their chances with one of the 3.

     

    2nd- With the Washington Redskins. I know they've been extremely quit this offseason, but they could heat up on draft day. I think that Dan Snyder wants Derek Harvey from Florida, but don't believe that he will make it past Denver. Washington flips 1st's with Buffalo and gives us their 2nd, but we give them our 4th round pick. Possible? Yeah, but far fetched. I kinda think Dan is going to let things play out in a natural order this year since all of his attempts to bring a team together by way of FA and Coaches has fallen short.

     

    3rd- The Pittsburgh Steelers want to move up to get Branden Albert to take the place of the departed Alan Faneca. Albert has been moving up draft boards across the NFL and could be a possible target of Denver also. Pittsburgh could want the guy that bad if he's still on the board when we hit the clock. We would get the Steelers 1st and 2nd for our 1st and 4th. Possible? I think so. More possible than some would believe.

     

    4th- The last one I could see happening would be with the NY Giants. Yes, the NY Giants. It depends on whether Keith Rivers falls to our slot or not. If he does, Coughlin and the NY front office will be making the phone call and using Shockey as bait. We would swap 1st's get their 2nd and Shockey and we would give up our 3rd to them. So for swapping 1st's and a 3rd we get Shockey and the Giants 2nd round pick. We could still get a WR that would play opposite Evans that late in the 1st and we'd fill our TE spot for the next 4 years if the guy stays healthy. Possible? Ehhhhh, probably not. But interesting to think about.

     

    We're in a good spot this year with all of the uncertainty as to whom is going to take who. Our options are wide open. I just hope that whatever plays out works to perfection for us, as do all of us Bills fans.

  13. Mort has simply mirrored the Bills on-field results over the past 10 years. That's what we hate.

     

    Yeah, we haven't been great over the last ten years. But this guy is completely ridiculous. I thought it was great when Berman put him in his place last year at the draft. I cannot recall a person in sports journalism acting like such an anus towards a franchise since I've followed sports. Some were opinionated, but not needed to be handed a roll of toilet paper every time their mouth opened.
