Andrew Luck is by far the best looking QB I've seen in a long time....best looking as in looks most like an NFL caliber QB. Mallet is inaccurate and I feel falls too much into a system QB. Locker I have not seen enough of...everyone else is a long shot. Knowing RW, we'll either trade out of the pick or draft a shocker of an OL. Oh, or draft Luck and not sign him until Sept 1st - thus rendering him useless.

With year 10 of playoffs here and no Buffalo Bills team participating, I find myself rooting harder and harder for teams that have ex-Bills. If rumors are substantiated tomorrow, then I imagine many will be making the full time move to root for another team. Yet again we've been 'raffoned' into thinking we're going to "clean house and bring in a bigtime coach and front office, I want to make one more run etc etc". Frankly, I would have been happy if we kept Perry/Bobby and a few others, while upgrading our S&C coach, Front Office, and offensive playbook - I'm not convinced AVP was the problem, he was forced to used Dickys rinky dink offense. Perry at least had them playing hard; and let's be honest, we had the worst talent on the field by the end of the year.

Kudors PTR. You are on every thread i ever read. Seriously, I respect the Bills love you show.

Cute.

Meadowlands was what, 4 or 5 years ago? And the reason they let him go was because of his ball velocity and arm strength. He's also on his what, 4th or 5th upper body/shoulder injury? I believe there is talk that he might not even be able to come back to play in the NFL. Understand what you are going for, but don't have the right guy. Especially with a burner like Lee Evans. And to be honest, I'm sick of watching dinking and dunking Buffalo Bills football....hasn't really gone all that well.

Ok with DJ, not with Pennington. Imagine his loose, soft balls fluttering in the Buffalo wind.

Adrian Peterson has games where he averages <3 yds carry. Freddy is by far our most consistent offensive player; he runs, catches, blocks, and doesn't turn the ball over.

I am disgusted to this day about the entire mess we are in at the O-Line. It all started with keeping Jauron for 'one..more....year' for continuity, and as he knew he was on the hot seat, he had to try and get all crazy with the offense (b/c it's sucked), so let's try the NO HUDDLE! Great idea! Crap, we have a pro bowl LT that wants more money, we aint payin him, b/c we want to set an example. We are the BUFFALO BILLS and don't pay just anyone. Let's trade him! We also have a monster RT - Walker - we'll just move him to LT. Wait, he's too big and won't fit our no-huddle. Let's CUT HIM. We have TO which will open our offense up so much more and we'll keep an extra TE in to help Trent. Fast forward to today, and we have turnstiles. Our team will go no where until we fix both lines.

Agree...I'm sick of reading about the '10-12 openings' that are going to be happening this year. Not gon happen.

No one knows how Tebow is going to be in the NFL, at the minimum he is a passionate and experienced leader and has played 4 years of football against big time talent. The last passionate leader we've had on the Bills is Hargrove (lol), he always displayed the most emotion on the sidelines. Much of this problem was probably due to the listless DJ being on the sidelines, but I want a guy to lead the Bills that WANTS to win and is passionate about being a Bill and winning. I doubt Tebow will fall to the 2nd round as I would bet that one of the teams 25-32 will take a flyer on him, at the minimum to be a wildcat player. I do agree that taking him as our 1st round pick isn't my first option as I'd rather take a DT like the dude from 'Bama to anchor a 3-4 or something...

which would be +1 more win for my fantasy team. At this point winning in fantasy > Bills winning.

But TO should know for SURE whats coming, right? I don't think he's the biggest problem, but he's far from being the solution to anything other than a couple easy catches a game. With that said, he's simply playing down to the emotion and effort displayed by most of the team and our head coach. I feel for guys like Freddy and J Reed who bust their ass every play no matter what.

I would have to agree that he does not look like a top flight WR. A couple of Trents picks the last 2 weeks, TO is being beat to the ball by the DB.

So it's looking like a long year (I'm not giving up on season yet tho), for sake of conversation, where would you be sending the scouts looking ahead to the draft? In the likelihood we are picking in the top 10, are you in UF, Texas, Ole Miss?? As someone posted previously, the most frustrating part is that we don't know where the majority of the blame lies. OLine? Trent? AVP/play-calls? WR not getting open/fighting for ball? DJ? I want to like Trent, but he just looks so robotic to me. I see young guys like Sanchez, Flacco, Ryan etc, and they just look so much more comfortable in the pocket.

ST score a touchdown. Schobel & Company have 4 sacks, and Reggie Corner has a big INT. Freddy rolls up another big day with 150 all purpose yards, and Trent throws 2 TD passes. TO finally has a breakout game w/100 yards. Bills 30 Saints 24

I've been completely against trading Roscoe from Day 1, however I am starting to come around should we get a good offer. I don't want to give him away for a 6th, but I'd be ok with getting Steve/JH in the 4th role to groom one of them to take over for TO when he's gone next year (assuming we don't resign TO).

I'm obv not locked on him the whole game watching on TV, but when I do see him/balls thrown his way he seems to have a big cushion. Corner just seemed to be much much tighter in his coverage, Leodis seemed to be protecting the big play over his head. I think he's very good, just not sure how good of a start he's had. I had no clue Nelson got injured, was wondering where he was though when Schouman went down.

Time will only tell, but after the last 10 games last year and pre season this year, I'm pretty happy with our O. When healthy (and with ML back), we could have a pretty scary offense. Please Trent, go down and stop taking hits though...

is it possible the check downs were a part of TS's gameplans the past 2 years? I would say Trent's first two games in AVP's offense have proven him as more of a legitimate QB as he's put us in position to win 2 games, and if not for dropped balls would have a completion % of 70%. I'll take that any day.

agree, corner is a ball hawk. mccelvin hasn't looked too good at CB this year..yet. Not saying he can't play, but Corner seems to be a Greer type of guy.

does it suck to be so angry all the time?

dudebro, get a grip. Our offense put up 17pts yesterday with essentially 3 rookies on the O-Line, 1 rookie TE, a WR who hasn't played with our 1st team O or Trent all training camp (TO), and a O Coordinator that has been on the job for 10 days. WE SCORED 3 PTS IN 5 GAMES THIS PRESEASON! I'm sick of hearing about Lee Evans this, TO that. We had the game won the way we were playing offense. If you'd rather target TO and Lee Evans 14 times each, which means Trent is throwing the ball 40 times+, then more than likely that means we are losing the game (check Trent's PA history). If it ain't broke dont fix it. Last night our swing passes, screens, sweeps and over the middle passes is what NE gave us, and we took advantage of it. You and others who continue to gripe about this discrepancy between Moss/Welker and TO/Evans need to check our football game knowledge at the door. We are not New England. We do not give Trent 8 seconds to throw the ball - a la Brady.

I watched all 60 mins of the game last night and 2 things jumped out at me: 1) Buggs is a stud....on the 2nd team defense. I don't know if it can translate to 1st team, but he was all over the field sticking the RB's 2) Leodis is the real deal, same as above. I was just as upset as everyone else about 1st team O, but I thought our D on a whole played pretty well....considering how much time they spent on the field. Hopefully they will be able to keep us in the season the first 4-6 weeks while our O pulls their sh-- together.

Geez, if we can't speculate on the future, guess we should shut this board down! I along with many others was hoping for Orakpo on draft day. Who knows if Orakpo & agent would have pulled same stunt if they were picked # 11 and Crabtree was holding out. I think I sound like a broken record every year, but agents are given way too much power and manipulate the players (you can even look at what Scott Boras was trying to do with the Nat's # 1 pick in baseball). With that said, I hope Maybin gets in soon and helps out our pass rush, b/c damn do we need it.

I love Marshawn as a guy on the football field. I think his attitude helps bring teams together, he's always the one flying a towel, jumping around on the sidelines pumping us up. However, I don't know if he is a tier 1 RB in the NFL. He's too indecisive at times which compounds a bad play with our mediocre O-Line. If you look at the better RB's of this decade, most have been quick burst guys - it took AP some time to learn to just run and hit the whole rather than looking around. Guys like Slatan, Cjohnson, LT today - they are quick to make a decision on where to go. Time will only tell, but Marshawn seems more of a grinder RB to me than an all purpose back.
