Yeah!! In 2007, he had 10 passes defended and 4 INTs.

Some of you guys are being too critical and overreacting. 1. Merriman is going to help give the Bills their best pass rush in a few seasons 2. N. Barnett is an improvement on Poz at ILB. Sheppard should provide more depth than they've had. 3. Aaron Williams will improve the cornerback play 4. Dareus will help greatly with the rushing defense 5. A year's experience for another budding start in Stevie Johnson should make him even better this year and all of the other young receivers have a season under their belts 6. Wood is an upgrade at center and i believe that Chan will put a OL five on the field that will be better than what started 2010. 7. Scott Chandler has shown to be gaining a rapport with Fitz so I believe his production will be better than what we've seen out of the TE position in a while. All this adds up to a better team than in 2010. Chances are there may not be a significant improvement to the win-loss record, but it'll be an improved team for sure.

I agree. Kickoffs have always been exciting. If you're going to end up with mainly touchbacks, why not just give the team the ball at the 20. You may still have antsy (Dumb?) returners, though, who'll bring the ball out of the end zone.

Yeah. Then when he gets a 2nd sack in a game, it's the return of "Two for McAdoo!!""

The offseason is the time of optimism prior to the 1st snap of the 1st regular season game. Then, as with the last decade, reality may set in. Don't deny us our optimism.

His twitter address does include a BS

In a city with an African-American mayor, who has a black fire commissioner, who had a black Police Chief, whose main university has a black athletic director and basketball coach and had a black football coach you play the race card?

And such an improvement in the 1st preseason game. They gave up "only" 164 yards!!

Says "DreReed"

I agree. Kick returns are the most exciting plays in the game.

With only the Rams over the cap, the league as a whole has a long way to go to meet that 99% of cap mark

Yes, that was one of the worst, if not the worst, NFL game broadcasts I experienced. I understand it was a Bears' broadcast but when the Bills were on defense they rarely announced who made the tackle. They conducted interviews while the Bills were on offense. Unless I missed it, they didn't give the Bills' starting lineups. Sam Rosen is a national broadcaster so I would've expected better. However, if he was getting nothing on the Bilsl from his spotter, it was a production issue. There was one running play where Bell pushed Urlacher into the secondary.

Bob McAdoo's nephew Michael was made eligible for the supplemental draft. He's a DE from North Carolina. Don't know if I'd even use a 7th rounder on him as he had only 3.5 sacks in 2 seasons. Would be a fun nostalgic pick, though.

And most of the Oakland Raiders 2010 draft class contributed to their 8-8 season. Who said the game has passsed Al Davis by??

Thank you!! How long before this one is closed? So, I'm supposed to do a search on Evans so I get dozens of results??

Buddy: "Ozzie, would you have an interest in Lee Evans?" Ozzie: "How about for a 4th round pick?" Buddy: "OK. Deal." Ozzie hangs up and bursts out laughing.

HARCO186, Save this post.

I hope it's for an OT or passrushing DE

Best I could do was $20 off NFL Tkt for each of the 5 months of payments ($100 off) but they also gave me the free HD, free upgrade to an HD DVR from a non-HD DVR for a 2nd room and no service charge. Actually all customers can get a receiver upgrade each year.

The Oakland Raiders let Green go after they re-signed another questionable Bills' signee in Langston Walker. We should be signing players away that teams want to retain, not players that aren't wanted. Brad Smith was one of the former.

You're obviously not considering this is the point of the OP.

Since this is a developing team, why not consider trading L.Evans straight up for a position of need? OT?

With Owen Daniels missing time due to injury, Joel Dreessen actually had comparable stats in 2010 (36 recs, 518 yds, 4 TDs vs 38, 471, 2 for Daniels).

I heard it from a friend who heard it from a friend who heard it from another that the Bills are supposedly talking to the Texans about their TEs. Seriously, he gets some type of updates to his phone, other than buffalobills.com, and they sent him an alert on this.

Sorry Dre. Replied to the wrong post.
