  1. Trade for Bledsoe, McGahee, Losman, Evans, Reed, Parrish. The Bills have spent a lot of picks on skill players early in the draft under TD.
  2. This is why I love all the time that people spend on mock drafts.
  3. Cut to commercial to call the cabbie!
  4. Well, it's only the top of the draft that was considered weak. I have a feeling the Bills take a player no one around here is expecting.
  5. I wonder if Henry to Arizona for a pick has ever been discussed.
  6. I'd rather have Henry for the 3rd than Henry for the 3rd and Mitchell
  7. Yes, but he's popular among Bills fans so they HAVE to take him at ANY cost.
  8. I think the D&C does a better job with general stories like the UDFA one today or the typical training camp stories about players. I think the BN does a better job covering the game and seem to have better sources for informational type stories.
  9. Well there's more factors at play to make a statement like that: * Player's salary * Depth in the draft (that is, a 2nd rounder this year isn't necessarily the same value as a 2nd rounder last year) * Age * Alternatives And let's not forget that last year Dillon was seen as an aging (declining ypc), malcontent player coming off of a season where he didn't play much.
  10. You missed the point. This thread is about an article that says Bledsoe struggled against teams with a 3-4 defense. My point was that the scheme didn't matter - those were good teams. Said another way, if the Pats, Ravens or Steelers played a 4-3 I don't think Bledsoe's record would be any better in those games.
  11. Interesting thought, but I don't think it's fully examined. I'm not certain of the makeup of the 10 games against 3-4 teams, but 3 of them are NE, Baltimore and Pittsburgh, which makes up 6 of the games. Those are pretty good teams. If you looked at how Bledsoe did against teams above .500 you'd probably see the same thing. 2004 Jack - L NE - L NYJ - L Balt - L NYJ - W NE - L Sea - W Pitt - L 2-6 against teams over .500 7-1 against teams at or under .500 2003 NE - W Mia - L Phil - L KC - L Dal - L Ind - L Ten - L Mia - L NE - L 1-8 against teams over .500 5-2 against teams at or under .500 2004/2003 total 3-14 against teams over .500 12-3 against teams at or under .500 Bledsoe struggled against teams using a 3-4, but he struggled against good teams regardless of their scheme. The teams using a 3-4 are pretty good to start with (unless you argue that they're good because they use the 3-4).
  12. How many Europeans and Russians were playing in the NHL in 1980? How much larger is the population today than it was in 1980? ---- Look at the goalie pads from years ago and today. There's a big part of it. There just isn't as much room to shoot at.
  13. per ESPN: The club filled a need at the right guard position by reaching a three-year, $5.1 million contract with Ravens offensive lineman Bennie Anderson that included a $1.5 million signing bonus. There are $400,000 of additional incentives that he should make that could make the deal worth $5.5 million.
  14. I'm sure 99.9% of people that say he's a gambler with heavy losses aren't saying that because you work for his sponser.
  15. Does anyone else find this startling? No. If you want to present evidence that this is in the bottom tier of average or better teams I can be persuaded to be startled.
  16. What's worse, hearing bad jokes, or hearing the same bad jokes every night? I'll never understand Leno's popularity.
  17. Take a pay cut or we'll cut you. It's pretty simple. Bledsoe was the one without options. Who was signing him last year if he was cut? If the Bills wanted a veteran Kerry Collins or Jeff Garcia were options at the time.
  18. I agree. It's not like the Bills need to create cap space at this time.
  19. Brady's a lot better QB than Bledsoe is, but to suggest that the Bills offense is equal to the Pats at the other 10 positions is incredibly silly. The Pats are one of, if not the best, pass blocking teams in the NFL, and that's what drives their offense. King is good at reporting things, like the coin toss story, but his football analysis is lacking.
  20. Thank you for taking the IQ Test at www.IQTest.com. We are confirming that your IQ Test score was: 152 I don't trust these IQ tests that try to get you to buy something. I think the scores might be inflated to entice you to see that you're a genius. The IQ tests at Tickle and IQ Test weren't very much alike.
