BuffaloBaumer

Well seeing some interviews where they were basically giggling about how many great looks the D is going to have - YES, I would say they REALLY are genuinely excited. You could see the smiles on their faces and the excitement in the potential. I don't recall seeing that for a long time.

Like I said though, I don't trust anything to be truth when players are interviewed (especially when it involves talk about gameplans). I would be willing to bet CJ was not too happy during many games no matter what he said.......

I know they all say they do in interviews but I have a hard time believing they have been on the same page in quite a few years. I think this is going to be the key to this team and I also believe that for the first time in a looong time, the system that is being installed is going to maximize the talents of this team. With the potential of Manuel along with the exciting possibilities of the WR corp and young LBs, the Ralph is going to be an even more beautiful place to be. Maybe the record this year will only reflect a handful of wins but I think this train is on the right track and this could be a pretty special group as they grow together (players and coaches) over the next several years. The atmosphere at the Ralph is going to be restored sooner than later and when it happens.......oh my.

Literally ANYTHING but a 5'8" receiver and I'm fine (which means WR at 8). That translates to tv going off, music going on and the the BBQ continues

And how did that work out for Locker and Barkley. Each one of these guys would have gone 1 or 2 overall in the year before they declared. They stayed in school and bombed so what is to say that won't happen to the supposed stars in college this year.....

i just looked at some of the more recognizable scouting reports on Wilson and Kaepernick and wow, just wow.... If Buffalo had the #1 overall pick in either of those drafts, I would have been happy if Buffalo had taken them there (excluding Luck).

Exactly, but I can't count how many times I have sen people here say xyz guy should not be taken at 8 because he is projected as 2nd to 3rd round talent.....

If Someone had taken Russel Wilson or Kaepernick at # 8 last year, what would these so called "experts" have said? The truth is NOBODY has a clue how these guys will perform until they are in live NFL games and the chances are that there ARE 2-3 QBs who will be starting NFL caliber guys. I am actually more excited to hear the input of Marrone than I am Buddy or Whaley because I believe we have a guy (finally) that can pick out the right leader. I think he will have a lot more input than people may think and if we pick a QB at 8, I will be very excited that they think of someone that highly. If we wait until the 2nd round, so be it.....

Jets ripple effect? Who knows, maybe they were planning on going defense in the first and now have decided it's QB? Ya never know......

Waaaayyyy too big of a jump for them.

does each team play on Thursday night again?

I am really starting to like the idea of reloading the O line. Never would I have thought this a month ago but I think whoever the QB is going to be this year is going to need all the help he can get. This gives Spiller a huge boost too so why not get someone who is going to help the team out in multiple areas right away.

This is all anyone should care about. If there is a QB they really like and they think there is .0001% chance he is not there in the 2nd, take him at 8 (whoever it is)

Can we find a QB first before people want to spend more money on a team that has been spinning its' wheels for over 15 years. I would be fine not adding anyone that costs over a couple mill util QB is found

Most of the big names seem to be spoken for so let's just hope they can find some good depth and maybe a starting LB. Draft a starter LB and QB and cross your fingers. Bottom line, I would not expect much flash from OBD this year during FA.

I don't expect much this year and that is not a slam on the Bills.I would enjoy one of two things - either grab the best LB available or top guard (other than Levitre) or just get a bunch of depth and get the starters in the draft....

This is exactly right. Their is a new regime and with it need to come players that grow within the system being implemented. This truly is the first year of the honest rebuild......

This team just needs a damn QB once and for all, I could not give a crap about the rest of it......

It IS a little puzzling that one of the worst teams in the NFL won't go a little harder after arguably 2 of the top 10 free agents (which are are on their own team).

Nice work, I would have picked Denver and GB. Niners look awesome - how great would Ravens Niners be?

Bring it on I say. Have you not had enough of the conservative, crappy, predictable and losing culture fir the last 15 years. There truly is a genuine culture change going on and I could not love it more. Go get your QB and DC and let's hit the ground running!

Just spoke to a buddy who just read it somewhere thus no link - there is crap coming out everywhere...

Now some garbage is coming out that Kelly has agreed with Bills and Lovie is DC

Chris Brown saying something to the effect of both sides met with no real intent of moving forward with each other........

We should also be hoping that AZ hires Reid because he he has already gone on record saying he can fix Kevin Kolb (that leaves one more QB for Buffalo if they see one that fits at 8).
