You herd it hear last Posted August 4, 2014 Author Share Posted August 4, 2014 Showing my age, but here is a quick list of names that were either All-Preseason and/or just never fulfilled that promising future we hoped they’d have: WR = Bucky Brooks QB = Brian McClure RB = Jacques Robinson, Rene Ingoglia G = Mark Traynowicz C = Leonard Burton T = Robert Hicks TE = Lonnie Johnson MLB = Dan Brandenberg OLB = Monty Brown DE = Chidi Ahanotu DT = Reggie Rogers S = John Hagy CB = Filmel Johnson KR = Errol Tucker I hope our choice of HC didn't inspire any hard feelings, in reference to your namesake. If memory serves me, the carousel at QB during that time much resembled the last many years here. it certainly didn't help Bullough. As for your list, it reflects your razor sharp Bills history acumen. If there was a way my pathetic team could play your pathetic team in Madden, I would buy it. But then I'd have to buy a game system. And a TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willie Totten was a decent scab, along with Todd Schlopy at K. They beat the LT-led Giants, 6-3 I think. Wow, LT needed cash flow that badly, huh?

You herd it hear last Posted August 5, 2014 Author Share Posted August 5, 2014 (edited) GM = Tom Donahoe, Stew Barber, Terry Bledsoe HC = Bullough OC = Turk Schonert, Dan Henning DC = Wannstedt STs = Crossman, Rusty Jones Offense: WR1 = Hogan, Avion Black, James Hardy, Jeremy McDaniel, Bernard Ford WR2 = Roosevelt, A. Brown, Haddad, Aiken, J.

Bannon, John McCan'tgo, Troup K = Kirk Roach P = Rick Tuten (for lack of a better one) KR = "punt catcher" Watson, Jonathan "Fast Freddy" Smith, Jimmy "the jet" Cunningham I'll bet if you summed all these guys' current salaries (at whatever career), they wouldn't even approach what our LG is making this year. Just doesn't seem right somehow. Edited August 5, 2014 by You herd it hear last Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billshank Redemption Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 As a WR, Easley Easley never really did anything, someone on this board decided he could be like this stud wide receiver and since we literally had nobody we all got pretty excited about him, more of a training camp wall of fame guy.

Kirby Jackson Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 That team would be terrible!! Outside of Joique Bell, Baker, Burris, Bannan, Holmes, Walker and Merriman there isn't another NFL caliber player on that roster. It's amazing that we all fell in love with some of these guys.

I sometimes think where would the Bills be if they didn`t put so many of their assets into rbs and cbs. Did Shawn Bryson ever tear it up in the pre season.
