  1. Wow I must have forgot about that which makes it a even bigger joke then. With Ed Reed possibly retiring safety could be a need position for them.
  2. I would offer Whitner + 2nd round pick next year for Gaither and see if Baltimore will bite. They did after all gave us a 3rd and 5th for Mcgahee which I thought was an absolute steal.
  3. Stafford had Culpepper to compete against but proved he was ready to be the starter. If he didn't the Lions would have went with Culpepper. The last thing I want to see is bringing another rookie QB in and throwing him to the wolves. See JP and Trent for where their careers went. People are like yeah support him but a couple bad games and people want to see the back up. We then start this yo yo process all over again yanking guys in and out of the lineup hindering their development. Fix the lines first next year is probably going to be another losing season. I would rather pick a QB from next year's draft class anyway. Even if we draft a rookie QB there is no way I would have him start right away and would rather have them sit their rookie year. Learn the system and then compete for the starting job the following season. What good is it going to do if he is running for his life every snap and looking up at the sky flat on his back.
  4. Kiper/McShay ESPN NFL draft Podcast. Some discussion regarding Buffalo and potential QB choices. http://espn.go.com/espnradio/player?rd=1#/...lsign=ESPNRADIO
  5. Compared to the last 2 superbowls Pitt-Ariz and Giants-Pats it lacked that certain drama that captures your interest. However, those 2 games were some of the best all-time so it was going to be tough to live up to. This game had its moments but felt like it never got out of 2nd gear and was just OK.
  6. Instead of Mcnabb I would make a move for David Garrard who is younger and cheaper. Would make for a better stop gap while we try and find a franchise QB. Del Rio isn't so enamoured with him and wouldn't cost as much as Mcnabb. If you are going to spend big on any of the philly QBs it should be Kolb but I seriously doubt they would trade him. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/...-bus/?related=1
  7. I think Terrence Cody or Dan Williams if he slips a little should be the pick in Rd 2 if either is available. However, OT in Rd 1 is still the primary need unless there is a run on them before our pick.
  8. I wouldn't look to the draft a WR we already have 2 young receivers that haven't gotten a chance to prove themselves. I would either sign a verteran FA like Malcolm Floyd from the Chargers who would be available or pick up a undrafted WR after the draft to compete in Training Camp. If we plan on making a change to the 3-4 the majority of picks need to go to the defense.
  9. Football junkies like myself who obsess over the combine and draft every year. Here is coverage and reviews of Senior Bowl practices from Matt McGuire Walterfootball.com and Scott Wright DraftCountdown.com. Being a Tony Pike supporter disappointed to see him struggle so much on day 1 hopefully he turns it around. However, Dan LeFevour had a good showing and a guy to keep your eye on. All these QBs have question marks and we can't draft one in the 1st this year. I think the safest pick is going to be either LB Rolando Mclain or an OT Bryan Bulaga/Anthony Davis/Trent Williams. http://www.draftcountdown.com/features/Sen...Senior-Bowl.php Day 1 North http://www.draftcountdown.com/features/Sen...s/North-125.php Day 1 South http://www.draftcountdown.com/features/Sen...s/South-125.php
  10. Maybe if enough people keep dropping out Fitzpatrick will be the next one invited to the Pro Bowl.
  11. What Turner has proved with one of the best rosters in football is that he shouldn't be a Head coach.
  12. I would rather have given the job to Fewell and hired Gailey as OC. That is a combination I could have lived with. There is no way they can spin this hire and it is a real embarassment that they practically had to give this job away to a retread who hasn't proved he was deserving of another head coaching opporunity.
  13. I can't believe they couldn't have gotten Gailey to come here as OC if they really wanted and took a shot instead at Frazier. I guess it is going to come down to who Gailey brings on as coordinators. However, it is going to be a difficult job selling this team next year and all this change bs OBD was selling was a joke.
  14. If I were the Bills I would be willing to listen to anybody who is interested in coaching this team. Frazier is the obvious leader but there is no competition right now. Bring in Rivera, Billick, Garrett, Fassel, etc... for interviews. If they decline so what move onto the next one. Frazier shouldn't win the job by default and I just want the best coach hired whoever that may be. The new head coach needs a clear plan on how they are going to fix the offensive side of the football which is clearly a mess and a proven offensive coordinator is a must in my opinion.
  15. Minnesota has a big defensive line with the William's duo and Jared Allen. I believe I read somewhere that out of the 45 sacks they recorded this year their D-line was responsible for 38.5.
  16. Interesting article by a Detriot Lion's blogger during their coaching search last year. I am starting to warm up to the idea and believe he might be the best choice to become our next head coach. Hopefully he can bring in a proven offensive coordinator like Al Saunders to fix that side of the football. Mentions that he is a Jim Johnson disciple which plays an agressive one-gap 4-3 scheme with a variety of blitzes from different postions. If we can shore up the run d and stay healthy next year the defense will be decent. http://thelionsinwinter.blogspot.com/2009/...ie-frazier.html
  17. If the Bills go with a 1st time head coach whoever it is they need to bring veteran coordinators with them. If I am OBD I pick whoever can bring in experienced coordinators that have actually accomplished something in this league. For all the years Jauron has been in the league you would have thought he would have had some contacts but ended up with 1st time coordinators on both sides of the ball.
  18. I wonder if the Flutie curse that was lifted off Wade is now by extension also removed off the Bills. Who knows Patriots lose and Brady doesn't look so perfect anymore. Cowher + Buffalo = Playoffs 2010. Hey a fan can dream can't he?
  19. If Brian Schottenheimer can bring O-line coach Bill Callahan with him not a bad fallback plan if they can't get a veteran coach. Jet's O-line leads the top ranked rushing attack and they had to do it with a rookie QB so defenses were stacking the box but the Jets were still able to run the ball.
  20. This organization is such a joke. They interviewed only 3 candidates Modrak, Guy, and Nix. That was a real thorough search can't believe they made a decision so quickly without checking out other candidates. I can't believe that Modrak and Guy were even up for consideration in the first place.
  21. I will be extremely disappointed if Modrak is getting the GM job. He is partially to blame for the mess we are currently in and doesn't deserve to be in charge. Nix hasn't been here long enough so it is difficult to pass judgement but it is defintely not the sexy pick and seems like another Ralph cheap hire. We need a clean sweep of this organization from top to bottom.
  22. I would take an chance and draft Tony Pike from Cincy if he is available in the 2nd round when we pick. Not being a 1st round pick there is not as much pressure for him to come in right away and start. I would sit him the entire year and sign/trade for a veteran to fill in for the short term until the o-line is fixed. Trent is done here so i would trade him in the offseason as he is in the completely wrong system and is more of a west coast QB. No young QB is going to be able to develop and grow behind the worst o-line in the league. We have seen too many QBs get thrown into the fire before they are ready resulting in their careers going down the drain. If we do decide to draft another QB next year I hope we don't make the same mistake again like we have done in the past.
  23. The LB and OL class is the only thing worth looking into this offseason. I rather sign a FA LB than draft one when we need more impact players on both lines. There are some pretty viable options here that would immediately improve this team next year. LB Eric Alexander UFA New England Patriots Free Agent LB Jon Alston UFA Oakland Raiders Free Agent LB Ken Amato UFA Tennessee Titans Free Agent LB James Anderson UFA Carolina Panthers Free Agent LB Tully Banta-Cain UFA New England Patriots Free Agent LB Antwan Barnes RFA Baltimore Ravens Free Agent LB Bertrand Berry UFA Arizona Cardinals Free Agent LB Gary Brackett UFA Indianapolis Colts Indianapolis Colts LB Ricky Brown UFA Oakland Raiders Free Agent LB Keith Bulluck UFA Tennessee Titans Free Agent LB Angelo Crowell UFA Tampa Bay Buccaneers Free Agent LB Thomas Davis UFA Carolina Panthers Free Agent LB Tim Dobbins UFA San Diego Chargers Free Agent LB Elvis Dumervil UFA Denver Broncos Free Agent LB Scott Fujita UFA New Orleans Saints Free Agent LB Omar Gaither UFA Philadelphia Eagles Free Agent LB Chris Gocong UFA Philadelphia Eagles Free Agent LB Ramon Guzman RFA Indianapolis Colts Free Agent LB Parys Haralson UFA San Francisco 49ers Free Agent LB James Harrison UFA Pittsburgh Steelers Free Agent LB Thomas Howard UFA Oakland Raiders Free Agent LB Clint Ingram UFA Jacksonville Jaguars Free Agent LB D'Qwell Jackson UFA Cleveland Browns Free Agent LB Rashad Jeanty UFA Cincinnati Bengals Free Agent LB Brandon Johnson UFA Cincinnati Bengals Free Agent LB Derrick Johnson UFA Kansas City Chiefs Free Agent LB Akeem Jordan RFA Philadelphia Eagles Free Agent LB Aaron Kampman UFA Green Bay Packers Free Agent LB Freddy Keiaho Re-signed Indianapolis Colts Indianapolis Colts LB Rocky McIntosh UFA Washington Redskins Free Agent LB Shawne Merriman UFA San Diego Chargers Free Agent LB Kirk Morrison UFA Oakland Raiders Free Agent LB Chike Okeafor UFA Arizona Cardinals Free Agent LB Nick Roach RFA Chicago Bears Free Agent LB Matt Roth UFA Miami Dolphins Free Agent LB Barrett Ruud UFA Tampa Bay Buccaneers Free Agent LB DeMeco Ryans UFA Houston Texans Free Agent LB Anthony Schlegel UFA Cincinnati Bengals Free Agent LB Mike Schneck Signed Atlanta Falcons Free Agent LB Jamie Sharper UFA Seattle Seahawks Free Agent LB Matt Sinclair UFA Washington Redskins Free Agent LB Derek M. Smith UFA San Diego Chargers Free Agent LB Cody Spencer UFA Detroit Lions Free Agent LB Lofa Tatupu UFA Seattle Seahawks Free Agent LB Odell Thurman UFA Cincinnati Bengals Free Agent LB Jason Trusnik RFA New York Jets Free Agent LB Stephen Tulloch UFA Tennessee Titans Free Agent LB Jeff Ulbrich UFA San Francisco 49ers Free Agent LB Mike Vrabel UFA Kansas City Chiefs Free Agent LB DeMarcus Ware UFA Dallas Cowboys Free Agent LB Marcus Washington UFA Washington Redskins Free Agent LB Gerris Wilkinson UFA New York Giants Free Agent LB D.J. Williams UFA Denver Broncos Free Agent LB Jamar Williams UFA Chicago Bears Free Agent LB Chris Wilson RFA Washington Redskins Free Agent LB Pierre Woods UFA New England Patriots Free Agent
  24. Campbell is the Trent Edwards of the NFC. I don't want him on the team but Tavaris Jackson is interesting. Now I don't view him as the long term solution but with an O-line in flux he could fit in well as a stop gap. He is able to make plays with his feet and if we can design an offense that fits his skill set instead of trying to fit players into our rigid system it might work out.
  25. They should consider moving Levitre to LT for the rest of the season who I thought did a solid job while in there. In addition, Simmons who was awful at least has an excuse as this was his first start with a new team. However, Scott was just as terrible and should be moved inside to LG as he lacks the quickness to hold off speed rushers.
