Orton's Arm Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 I watch and cheer for the Bills to win. I don't cheer to move up two spots for a draft choice Our best draft picks last year were Levitre, Wood, and Byrd .... ALL picked below Aaron Maybin Go Bills. Give us a win today This team needs difference-makers: the kinds of players who can change the whole complexion of a game. Typically, teams are most likely to find those difference makers early in the draft. The Bills haven't done that, because we've squandered our first round picks on non-difference makers like Donte Whitner, John McCargo, Marshawn Lynch, (and at least so far) Leodis McKelvin and Aaron Maybin. Now that there's apparently a competent GM in the house, I expect the Bills' track record in the first round to improve. We need to start getting some game-changers in here if this team is going to be a serious postseason threat. Which is why it's too bad that the Bills are going to win this game. Had we gone 1-15, we could have drafted a sure-fire game changer like Suh. But by piling up several meaningless wins, we're going to lose out on players in that tier.

RayFinkle Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Thigpen is a guy I wanted the Bills to get. He just threw nice pick into double coverage in the red zone. He'd fit right in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrFishfinder Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Fewell's gonna be out of a job soon. That is most likely the case, but he is the HC in this game. That being said, we both have made our points and I'm going to gracefully bow out of this topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 He just threw nice pick into double coverage in the red zone. He'd fit right in. Yeah, saw that. Right after a Big Ben fumble gave the Dols the ball in great field position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Fewell did well for himself considering what he had to work with. It won't be here but he will be a HC someday. PTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThreeBillsDrive Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 No mention recently but that was reported as possible for Shanahan. I have to belive an equity stake is something CAR and TBAY can't match. PTR Factoring in the upside in such a contract for Cowher, he very could be the highest paid coach in NFL history. Or at least end up with the highest net worth. His pay package would be far in excess of that of Nix But Nix wouldn't be writing this kind of a deal. It would be Littmann and Brandon, with Ralph listening on the sidelines after giving his blessing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saudi Arabia Rob Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 did Beurlein say Russ "Branson"? and the play by play guy or producer doesn't correct him? more proof of how irrelevant we've become. Or how relevant our "head of football operations" was. Brohm's in now for all you Brohm-backers. Nice win to end the season, regardless of the situation. Freddy and TO set some nice records.

Doc Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Or how relevant our "head of football operations" was. Which is ironic, because Beurlein was the Russ Brandon of QB's, if not announcers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Well at least, the Bills have some good RB's, could still have good WR's if they re-sign TO, a promising TE, and some decent interior O-line players (Wood, Levitre, and Incognito). What they need is a QB, tackles (Meredith?) and a good OC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobillsinytown Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 Coffin nail for the fish!! Willie Parker down to the 9 yard line. I know the Bills had a crappy year, but I love watching the Dolphins lose. Just wondering.....where's the Parcells magic now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 They Bills have a good RB. Who is the TE you were referring to---Fine? You really need to get those glasses checked. I said "promising TE" in Nelson. But you knew that one. If only he had Leinart throwing to him. TO resigned, DOC? Never surrender, huh? Oh, the irony.
