  1. Historicaly, I have been terrible at predicting QBs.

    I thought Leaf was better than Manning.

    I thought Johnson was better than Flutie.

    I even wanted JP over Trent.

     

    I looked for the physical tools and ignored success.

     

    I do not want Clausen because he had a losing record at ND.

    His teams acheived nothing and his coach was fired.

    Not all of this was his fault, but he did not do enough to lift the play of those around him.

     

    Give me Colt 'I've won more college football games than any other qb' McCoy or Tim 'I won 2 national championships despite throwing like a bar league softball player' Tebow.

  2. Also, Kelsay ran a 4.68 40 at the 2003 combine: Link.

     

    And that was when he weighed 278. If he can return to his natural weight, he can probably play DE.

    The story in the Buffalo News where they do not provide an actual quote not withstanding.

  3. Kelsay was 280 at the combine.

    Under DJ & co, he was playing well under his natural weight.

    If Kelsay is going to stay with the team, he will get back to his original weight and play DE.

     

    People posted the exact same thing when the Bills went to the Cover 2.

     

    If the Bills want to cut him because he makes to much money that's one thing.

    Until they get to minicamp, noone really knows if any player currently on the team can play end in the 3-4.

  4. I have to go w/ Buffalo Bill.

    Teams will defend our offense by pressuring Edwards. If the line can give him the time, and Edwards can find the open man, downfield, the Bills will be tough to beat.

     

    If Edwards is taking hits or dumping the ball, the Bills will not be able to put together drives and will not score enough.

  5. I used to listen to WGR all of the time.

    I would always get frustrated about many of the things brought up in this thread.

    After the Sabers were eliminated, I removed 550 from my car presets.

    I am happier for it.

     

    Here are a few opinions to note:

    1) WECK guests/interviews in the afternoon are better than WGR's

    2) In the when driving to work, 97 Rock's Bills coverage is much better than WGR's

  6. I agree, there's no way Buffalo knew Cincinnati was definitely going OT at 6.

     

    I really don't think there was an OT after A. Smith who would come in and start from Day 1.

    Maybe Buffalo knew A.Smith was either going to go to Cincinnati or be available at 11.

    LT plan A - draft A. Smith @ 11

    LT plan B - pick up L.Jones after Cincinnati cuts him due to drafting A.Smith @ 11

    LT plan C - turn Bell into the 2nd coming of J.Peters

  7. This isn't exactly cheery news for your boy Donte either, though. Donte said himself that he was going to be moved to FS. Then the Bills draft an pretty good cover corner in the top 50 of the draft and say they plan to break him in at FS and slot corner (Donte was also used in the slot). :thumbsup: Donte hasn't exactly been a "ball hawk" (to say the least) and some in the media have said he's "wasted" at the SS position.

     

    Byrd and Whitner are the same size and are supposed to have some of the same skills. With another player capable of handling centerfield or slot coverage it will be easier for the Bills to hide what they are doing. Hopefully the addition of Byrd will allow Whitner to take more risks and generate big plays.

  8. Why doesn't everyone who wants Pettigrew realize that he's not going to be picked by the Bills. OL & DL are more important than TE. Best shot for a TE is a trade for Scheffler, not the pipe dream of drafting Pettigrew.

     

    When was the last time the Bills used thier 1st pick on a player who filed an 'importiant' need?

     

    OL & DL have been an important need on this team for the last 15 years. Currently there is not 1 lineman on the roster that the Bills took with thier 1st pick in a draft.

  9. A 4.9 forty kid is slow. He never had a catch over 10 yds. Trouble with the law. He will look even slower in the NFL. Watch some film on him. If you can`t see it . You are blind.

     

    Sounds like the perfect player for this team.

    According to many, Edwards never throws a pass more than 10 yards.

     

    Pettigrew can block, and even if he's slow he can turn those passes Royal dropped into positive plays.

     

    Why the Pettigrew hate?

  10. I honestly think that the Bills wouldn't even get a trade offer for Simpson. He's been a major disappointment and isn't even worth a 7th round pick, IMO.

     

    You are probably right, but how many people thought the Bills would get any offers for McCargo.

     

    There was a recent article on NFL.com about draft trades. Most teams work the trades out in the week prior to the draft and then make the deal if certian players are gone and/or available at certian picks. Maybe Kelsey, Parrish, Simpson and McCargo will be used as part of packages for the Bills to move up in the draft.

  11. If he had any input into the selection of Mike 'Big kitty' Williams, how... why... would you want him touching the OL situation again?

     

    Williams was drafted in '02.

    McNally joined the Bills in '04.

     

    While McNally was here, the Bills drafted:

    Butler - starter

    Pennington - one good year

    Merz

    Preston - played but never developed

    Geisenger

    McFarland

     

    No linemen in the 1st, 2nd or 3rd rounds

    Preston was the only one in the 4th round

    Butler was the only one in the 5th round

    The others were 6th & 7th rounders.

     

    Durring his time here, McNally was given 7 pieces of sh--. He turned one piece into platinum. One into gold. 2 more into lead. The rest stayed sh--.
