Kelsay's an OK player, but I wouldn't pay him a penny over 2.75m... just ain't worth it. I can't think of anything he's done that has made this team better. If anything, it's worse. Hell... I can't believe if Marty Schottenheimer were coach that the defense would be this bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hires gailey nothing wrong with that edwards gone check not giving away mabin , just paid him 20 million like it or not he will get time to try to figure it out dwan edwards has not been the problem green was done out of desperation after Butler retired no qb he could get his hands on was much of an upgrade no left tackle was available. way to early to comment on draft picks as for kelsey no comment . Jeez give it a little time this thing is a mess. We all wanted to get rid of the tampa two. well we spent 4 years drafting and signing players to fit that system. Now we have to find players to fit a new system . it will get better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincec Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 I really thought that when they took the TVs out of the weight room all of their problems would be solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wagon Circler Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 He wanted Schottenheimer. Ralph wasn't 'comfortable' with it.(5 million or so) Maybe Brian comes aboard to coach with dad? Can't kill Nix on that one .He followed the edict- Find someone cheap and desperate. Same edict Chan was given to fill out his staff. Besides Buddy has enough splaining to do with the personnel decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look what the 'Skins did. what did the skins do? they might win 7 games this year. We still might win 4 . Rebuild is rebuild. Mcnabb wanted no part of Buffalo or Oakland . If we can get the talent level up free agents will come . This was not a good offsseason for aggressive moves ,free agency was greatly restriced due to the collective bargining agreement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLZFAN4LIFE Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 Um, Miami turned itself around in one season. The Bills could have at least kept it respectable with more aggressive moves. Look what the 'Skins did. The very team that just wiped our ass on our home field finished 4-12 three seasons ago. Last year they were in the AFC Championship game and appear to be a lock to go at least that far this season. It all starts at the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spartacus Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 Nix is only trying to make do within the budget allocated to him......the constant mediocrity can only be credited to the owner of the franchise. he would have a whole pile of money to spend if he had cut Stroud and Kelsay, instead of giving Kelsay a massive extension.

Gabe Northern Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 5) Signs "D" Free agent Cornell Green 7) Doesn't address LT in the offseason Football Genius Buddy Nix decided the way to fix the offensive line was to sign a guy who led the league in penalties in Oakland and draft a Chinese dude in the 5th round of the draft. Yeah, I mean, how could that miss. Oh, and his 2010 draft has produced NOTHING thus far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that according to your math, the Bills still have some time to make things right...and I agree. The way you just described the Jets, being 4-12 three seasons ago and last year making it to the AFC Championship game, was that not the exact scenario with the Bills from 1986 thru 1988?

I know he sucks but cutting him would have been crazy. Secondly, I Like Dwan Edwards I think he's a good depth player but not a starter. I do agree that the resigning of Kelsay and the fact they're not getting the ball to the Running Back we drafted with our ninth pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we have to find players to fit a new system . it will get better This here is what we can denial. As in, denying that things have gone horribly wrong and we can't possibly admit how bad it is. Have you watched since 2000? Same stuff, different year. He wanted Schottenheimer. Ralph wasn't 'comfortable' with it.(5 million or so) Maybe Brian comes aboard to coach with dad? Can't kill Nix on that one .He followed the edict- Find someone cheap and desperate. Same edict Chan was given to fill out his staff. Besides Buddy has enough splaining to do with the personnel decisions. Yeah. Schottenheimer wouldn't come out and say it, but he wanted the gig. Couldn't admit it in the event he didn't get the job, but he'd never get the level of freedom to rebuild the team, nor the resources. I think that's why the big names avoided Buffalo. And it's why you've got guys who wouldn't be in the NFL coaching this team. Edwards, Modkins, Giff Smith, D'Alessandris, et al. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
