Fan in Chicago Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Neither one would surprise. Of course they would love to get something for him. I am not sure about retirement. He is enough of a malcontent to retire, but he is also is on the frugal side. That makes for a tough call. I am a fan of Schobel's on-field production. It will be nice if the staff and he come to some agreement as it will avoid creating yet another hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Lightning Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 A friend of a friend saw Nix at TOPS and he bought some Clauson pickles. He could have grabbed Weber or another brand but took Clauson. That's a pretty clear sign he's leaning towards taking you know who from Notre Dame............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paup 1995MVP Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 I have a friend who's boss is really good friends with Jim Kelly, he says Jim knows someone who knows Donovan Mcnabb and Mcnabb says we are probably going to get a RT and a LT either sometime during free agency or during the draft. Not sure who's Mcnabbs source, but I think it could be pretty credible. And that is news that we are going to get an OT. We had the worst in the league last year. So you are going out on a limb by saying the obvious? Go back in your cave, and try and think of something a little more original dude!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob in STL Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Sorry for being a ghost lately. From what I know, it seems like most on this board most could be the GM. If they can, Lynch will be moved. Not a good fit from a chemistry standpoint with the new staff and direction. No news flash, but just verifying what most of you already know. They are looking hard at FA backs. Unfortunately I don't have any names. But you guys will be able to pin it down. The only QB they would take at 9 is Bradford. Since he will be gone, you are probably looking at an OT. Sleepers will be Spiller depending on what happens with Lynch and Dan Williams. Need a NT and it appears they like him. I know it's not anything very solid, but it's all I have right now. The only other thing is that I would be surprised if Schoebel stays. The next voluntary camp he shows for will be his first. I don't think that attitude will play well with this group. It is actually a good thing. He will either committ or be gone, which is what this team needs. Thanks. I can't see how we pass on a OT? Dan Williams would be nice though. Not another RB please. In the past decade we have spent premium picks on A. Smith, Travis Henry, W. McGahee and Lynch. To me our best RB has been Freddy Jackson, a undrafted free agent. Let's get some good lineman on this team before we look for a feature RB and a QB. Remember in Denver's heyday? Their OL was so good it did not matter who was carrying the ball.

HansLanda Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 If no Bradford then are we really going to have to deal with Trent and Fitz again? I know Bills fans will come around and get optimistic at some point this summer, but it's going to be a struggle for Russ to sell tickets this year.

I know Bills fans will come around and get optimistic at some point this summer, but it's going to be a struggle for Russ to sell tickets this year. If they do go back with just those 2 I would really be shocked...No matter what this Team does in the FO or with Coaching, they need to give Bills Fans some hope at the QB Position...Something, even if it's a QB of the future, or no question ticket sales will suffer...And the Team will suck for an extra year...

I know Bills fans will come around and get optimistic at some point this summer, but it's going to be a struggle for Russ to sell tickets this year. I think the "russ selling ticket part "is going to be interesting. Will a several rotation type of free agent signing period and a good draft be enough for him to fill the building ? Looking at the landscape a big splash does not seem likely ,although a Buluga, mt cody draft may have some sizzle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevergiveup Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Yea, you should be sorry that you were traveling when the entire board is clamoring for information. That really made me laugh. I will limit my travel moving forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alphadawg7 Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 Lets see...people are posting rumors, have your ears heard anything to substantiate any of them: 1. Someone is suggesting we are trading out of the first round for more draft picks 2. Someone is suggesting Whitner is about to be traded 3. Someone is suggesting that Whitner is specifically going to be traded this week to Cle for D. Anderson and a low pick 4. Someone is suggesting that we are considering Tebow in either a trade down scenario in the first or taking him in the 2nd... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But little does Nix know that Claussen pickles are a Kraft Food brand... and by buying the pickles, he is inadvertently supporting the patriots.
