JP-era Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 Im taking Bubba Franks. He is the premiere TE available and I think the Shelton deal lingers for another week until the Henry contract situation is hammered out. I truly believ TD has a player in mind and my guess is its Franks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LabattBlue Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 By signing Shelton, I assume you mean trading for him. If so, I believe this will be the first acquisition TD makes come 3/2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JP-era Posted February 28, 2005 Author Share Posted February 28, 2005 Itula Mili 255005[/snapback] good call, hes been productive for the hawks. I like other guys better but he would be an upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabattBlue Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 do you think its announced day one of FA? 255003[/snapback] If it's not day one, I think it will be quick. It looks like Jennings is not going to be re-signed, so the clock begins ticking on 3/2 to find an experienced LT to replace him in the starting lineup.

I seriously feel like what we do at LT is the pivot point of our offseason and maybe even next season. With a young QB at the helm, the most important o-line position up in the air. Man, we better make a really solid move or I think we suffer hardcore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JP-era Posted February 28, 2005 Author Share Posted February 28, 2005 Jeff Garcia 255013[/snapback] the only part I like about this is that he is similar in his tyle of play to Losman so the offense doesnt change if he goes in. That said, Id rather draft a guy that can move than bring in Garcia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsGuyInMalta Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 I actually think its going to be a TE. Not sure who, but I think TD strikes early since the TE pool is rather shallow (what with Franks getting that franchise tag). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mcgee is very lacking when he is on an island. Starks only problem is his height. If he is on the speed guy he can hold his own, he just struggles against the big guys.

Bill from NYC Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 I voted for Wahle. I would have went for Shelton, but TH is just so stupid that he could very conceivably screw things up wrt his rumored trade for Shelton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills need to spend their cap money on the OL, TE and K first --- those are more pressing needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a top notch corner can be had for a decent price, yes its a better move to get a sure fire stud from day one than to risk McGee stepping up even more. Especially when Clements is a FA next year. But, I Like McGee and he puts a clown like Watson to shame right now. Is he Clements yet? No. Bit he has gotten better every year, why does that not continue? He has the speed and size, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mcagee is better suited in zone defenses were he can run with a guy to the outside and release him if he goes inside. Mcgee gets in trouble when moves are thrown on him. He has very bad hips and gets turned on himself all the time. He is not a natural corner and probably would be a better FS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JStranger76 Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 I'm with VA Bills on this. Although I would like an Olineman or TE first, I'm not sold on McGee at all as a starting corner and wouldn't complain if a corner was brought in at all.

coltrane34 Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 They need a TE and since franks has the tag they need to make a play at wiggins who is arguably the most athletic TE available right now. Shelton is going to be a bill first. Now the rookie WR from northern colorado would be a perfect NFL TE. Hopefully TD is looking at one of them.
