we do business with this company; www.bjservices.com/ you hear a lot of "how is that bj job coming?" around the office.

I think they all three are on the team. Brown ends up on the practice squad. However Edwards is at the most risk. You know what you have with Fitz and I think Gailey will like his mobility. Brohm has that "what if" factor that keeps him around. Edwards, you know what you have so you know what your losing.

i would be surprised if kelsay gets cut. he is not a disaster.

what is the other option?

if we go to a 3/4 the lineup could look like this DE Williams NT Stroud DE Kelsay OLB Schoebel/Maybin ILB Poz/Mitchell

Art Still for least agile. honorable mention...Jeff Posey

nice analysis except I think we need a LT. not confident bell is the answer. I say OL/LB/DL/WR/ are the biggest area of in that order. QB is is lower on my list because i dont think there is anyone at the top that is worth taking this year. i think we can pick up a WR in FA. I would pick OL/LB with first 2 picks. easier to get productive players in those rounds.

he is starting to grow on me. check out some of the youtube videos of him in interviews. he reminds me of tony dungy on how he carries himself. whats more important is who he brings in as OC. our defense, while not great, is good and would be better if we had a offense that was respectable. so draft a LT/LB as the first two picks and try and get a QB in the 3rd round. i still think brohm has a lot of upside. live arm and quick release and he even said he likes the cold!

Hmmm...usually you can get his most recent shows on the audio vault...conspiracy?

A more objective analysis would be to limit yourself to the 5 players after they picked in round that round. Its easy to cherry pick the best from each round. You have to think of who they needed at the time or a similar player (Whitner vs Ngata or Maybin vs Orakpo) to gauge how they did. Remember that Kelly was our 2ND first round pick when we picked him. In the end it all comes down to the results on the field which is the most objective measure of how they did.

I've heard and read about all the bills FA losses/Trades this year. I really have no problem with any of them. These guys are the same "star" players that got us what over the last 5 years? A bunch of losing seasons. Remember when spikes boasted about the D possibly being better than the Ravens best D? That ended up being pretty accurate huh? In the end, most of these guys were talkers and not doers. I am ready for a change. I am looking forward to this season. Now if the Sabres could just do what they are supposed to do and beat the islanders already.

You can't be serious?

Just as we will be spending "Cash to the Cap" (~109 Million), there is also "Cash under the cap" or what the actual salary outlays are for this year. Does anyone have that number? Say for example it is 50 Million, the bills would theroretically have 59 million in cash to pay for new salaries. So if we were to sign clements this year and he gets a 15 million bonus plus say 3 million in salary, that would take our available cash to spend down to 41million. Our actual cap number would be adjusted by some number less that than. I don't think things are as bad as people make them out to be. Sure the bills are not going to spend $150million in salaries, but I believe in the law of diminishing returns, such that the higher amount of money you spend on players, the returns you get decrease as you spend more.
