You should feel good seeing mocks that show the Pats taking Willis. You know they NEVER take a guy who they're "projected" to take. They're lucky to be in a position to take the best players available at 24 & 28 regardless of position.

Lets take a look at this claim shall we? I think it can be said that most reasonable Bills fans know they arent winning the division. That means they must fight for one of the 2 wild card spots. Lets look at the competition with the assumptions that New England, Indianapolis, San Diego and Baltimore win their respective divisions; NY Jets - an up and coming team though personally, I believe they will take a step back record-wise due to a tougher schedule. Pittsburgh - 1 year removed from a Super Bowl run, Roethlisberger is healthy again. Cincinnati - Carson Palmer is the real deal. If they can keep out of jail, they'll contend at the very least. Jacksonville - I'm not sold on Leftwich over Garrard but they are still a decent team. Tennessee - Vince Young and this whole team showed a lot the 2nd half of the season. Lets see what happens with Pac Man however. Denver - they've made some pretty big moves this offseason and could compete with San Diego for the division. Kansas City - They always seem to find themselves in the mix. Lets also assume the loser of the Denver/San Diego division champ will secure a WC spot. Are the Bills better than the rest of those teams given all they've lost this offseason?

Other than the potential storyline, what gives you the impression that Belichick will go to the Giants? The Patriots future is much brighter than the Giants'. There are bigtime players in decline on the Pats roster, as is EVERY other roster in the NFL. There are also a good young nucleus of players especially along the O and D Lines. The Pats were only frighteningly good in 04. Every other year they beat you and left you scratching your head at how you just got beat.

I see you're skilled at talking out of both sides of your mouth. Which is it? Still be a good team or sure to be abomination of a 2007 season? I'll wait and see what your answer is

Yeah, Deion Branch would have stopped Joseph Addai from getting into the endzone untouched. He also would have put more pressure on Manning and would have adequately covered Dallas Clark down the field. Offense was not the problem in the AFCCG

If you're not worried why post about it? The Pats are building depth at WR; Stallworth Caldwell Welker Gaffney Washington Troy Brown? While they dont have a true #1, they dont operate in a system that clearly defines #1 or #2 receivers. Tom Brady spreads the ball out to different receivers and what they've done with this is they've mixed up deep threat receivers with possession receivers with slot/speedy receivers.

I wont argue with the first paragraph. The second however, their roster is better than it was last year. Adalius Thomas is an upgrade over Tully Banta-Cain, Eugene Wilson and Rodney Harrison are healthy again and Vrabel, Bruschi and Harrison age no faster or slower than any other human being (except those on crack) 3rd paragraph is pure hyperbole. They were no closer to burrowing to the center of the Earth as they were to flying to the moon. WHO CARES? They got to where they got to plain and simple.

HD, let them think that they have a chance. It will make mid September (the time they realize their season is over) that much sweeter. Then again, I suspect there will be more anger around these parts come Draft Day with the exception of MadBuffaloDisease who will continue to do his impersionation of Ron Borges by claiming that the Patriots are DOOOMED!!

The Pats own the division and have done so for basically the last 6 years with one hiccup in '02. The other teams have to scramble to catch up to them. They can now afford to use the draft for depth or to trade out and stockpile picks for next year. Its a good position to be in.

I'm just glad Coulter isnt giving some half hearted apology and going to rehab to "make everything all better" Is rehab the new "re-education centers"?

This is why John Edwards shouldnt be president for saying that this type of speech "shouldnt be tolerated" Um...there's this amendment in the constitution that guarantees this type of speech. In fact its so important that they made it the FIRST one. I love how Ann is bucking the latest trends and is NOT apologetic.

Since 2000, what exactly have the Ravens accomplished to prove that they are great talent evaluators?

Which two words sums up the above best; Ticky Tacky or Wishy Washy?

I predict that they will contend for the Super Bowl along with Indy, San Diego and possibly Denver.

So is the logic here that the Pats should have stuck with Tully Banta-Cain instead of Adalius Thomas?

Why didnt someone tell me there were Bushbots out there? Dont you guys know I'm deathly afraid of robot overlords?

The beauty of this is that the Pats can simply draft the best players rather than reaching for need. They can still afford to grab a LB and a Safety or WR and let them develop

"On a day when they could have had impact players David Terrell or Koren Robinson or the second-best tackle in the draft in Kenyatta Walker, they took Georgia defensive tackle Richard Seymour, who had 1 sacks last season in the pass-happy SEC and is too tall to play tackle at 6-6 and too slow to play defensive end. This genius move was followed by trading out of a spot where they could have gotten the last decent receiver in Robert Ferguson and settled for tackle Matt Light, who will not help any time soon". - Ron Borges, MSNBC after 2001 Draft.

Borges two days ago; Best values 1. Adalius Thomas, LB: He wants a $18 million signing bonus and will probably get it, likely from the 49ers. Wherever he goes, the 270-pound Thomas appears headed toward making an impact. Keep in mind, he hates the Pats as much as any Stadium Waller

We all know that no money ever just disappears from the "general fund" BIGGER GOVERNMENT!!

Iran and Saudi "talking" is akin to the Iron Sheik and Nikolai Volkoff "talking" behind the Hulkster's back. Whatever they're talking about, it probably isnt good for us.

I'm a conservative and I dont remember wanting to lock up gays in institutions. Build strawmen much?

He pretty much single handedly KILLS the Pats and does a lot of things very well. He'd be a FANTASTIC addition to the WR corps.

So much for the Pats being DOOMED!! Did I mention TWO first round draft picks?

Both Captain Crunch and Colonel Sanders give it the thumbs up however.
