Canadian Bills Fan Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 I will put Clausen on my Santa Clausen list as I checked it twice and he's been nice.....but I think the Bills will pass as a 1ST Round QB picked at #9 would require a bigger financial committment than Ralph Wilson is willing to make when they can keep the losers they have now...and maybe trade down to the 20th pick!!! Yeah, I think we're in trouble now! and I think I am becoming a real cynic regarding the Bills Organization! Excellent point. never thought of it in that way. Would a top 10 OT salary be the same as a top 10 QB? The salary is based on what the pick before and after got right? Not based on the position of the player?

Virgil Posted January 20, 2010 Author Share Posted January 20, 2010 Aren't we expecting this year to probably be a Rookie Salary Pool similar to the NBA or have there be no salary at all? If there is a pool, then I think we will take whatever we need the most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
34-78-83 Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 People are this board are fact averse. They like buzz words. the 4-3 is a perfectly fine defensive scheme, just like the 4-3. You cant just flip a switch like you can on a video game and expect the players youve acquired to play in the 4-3 to play fine in a 34. we dont have the bodies for 34. If you idiots are so gung ho on the 3-4 get ready for a bad defenseive year. btw defense wasnt the problem last year. it was lack of offense. +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being last or near last against the run was a very big problem. Also, it's not the formation it's the players (and coaching). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OVSplit Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Draft Tebow in round 2. He is going to be the man. Just wait and see!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nucci Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 You need a NT as opposed to DT's. He should have a stout build ideally, Sam Adams/Ted Washington are great examples. You're DE's should be prototypical Bruce Smith types if not larger. The Aaron Schobels/Aaron Maybins of the world were built for OLBs and not DE's in the 34 scheme. Your DE's in the 34 can't be light. Bruces playing weight was 260-265. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazed and Amuzed Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Bruces playing weight was 260-265. Bruce was a freak of nature and leaned down to 275 from 310. I've never seen him listed less then 275. I found this article because I know the next post will be "Link?". http://www.sportingnews.com/nfl/article/20...ls-sacks-leader Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarolinaBill Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Very true. I would see the draft projecting out like something like this. 9th pick - McClain [iLB] 20th pick - (trade with Houston) Cody [NT] 34th pick - (trade with Detroit) Campbell [OT] 41st pick - Lefevour [QB] thats perfect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flomoe Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Final 4 in NFL playoffs. Minnesota 4-3 N Orleans 4-3 Indy 4-3 Jets 3-4 The Bills won't dismantle this defense. They stay 4-3 add some meat up front and become top 10 defense. I tend to agree here. I believe they will probably stay with the 4-3, though it will be more of a traditional 4-3 and not the Cover-2 version. They would have to bulk up at LE replacing Kelsay and Denney and possibly add a D-Lineman that could play DT or DE. The Bills will probably go after more physical LB's on the outside, possibly moving Poz there and adding a stud in the middle and getting away from Safety sized LB's like Ellison and possibly using Maybin as a OLB/rush specialist on passing downs. They will probably go with a physical SS (possibly Scott) as oposed to a "coverage" type in Whitner. I don't know if they can change their defense in one year especially with the possibility of a lockout looming overhead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BYGD1 Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 I will take at least 2 drafts to fix the Bills one year for offense and one for defense I would guess they will go with Offense this year Draft QB OT and WR and FIX Defense Next Year, also sprinkle in some low end free agents signings while doing it to be competitive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
