BillnutinHouston Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 What is MM up to? Is Josh Reed going to rush the passer when Kelsay or Schobel go down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albany,n.y. Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 If Reed can drop passes, why can't he drop some QBs? Relax. We can move either a LB (Posey) or DT (Bannan, Sape) there if needed. Plus, one or both of the DEs (Ritzmann, Gause) will be on the practice squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Fischer Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 can you say Hugh Douglas? 428913[/snapback] I can also say "washed up." Seriously, why is this a "problem?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donahoe rufuses to cut Josh Reed because it proves he wasted a second round pick on the useless piece of crap!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coltrane34 Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 not a problem, none of those players will be picked up, so the bills will be free to get them on the practice squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corp000085 Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 I didn't know I needed one. 428944[/snapback] Well, i think we can all agree that TD has an ego, like all GMs do. I'll play the devils advocate though and claim that he's doing everything in his power to help the bills go 19-0 and become super bowl XL champs this year. With that being said, prove to me that he's sabatoging this team by keeping josh reed over drew haddad? If you can prove that, i'll prove that haddad makes the practice squad, and is elevated when parrish comes off of his injury simultaneous to josh reed being cut. Moral of the story?? We both can't, unless we are indeed alter egos of tom donahoe and/or mike mularkey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvermike Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 And also, Donahoe rufuses (sic) to cut Drew Bledsoe because it proves he wasted a second round pick on the useless piece of crap!!! That's why Drew's going to be back this season, even though he's clearly washed up and causing this team to lose! Oh, wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We both can't, unless we are indeed alter egos of tom donahoe and/or mike mularkey. 428951[/snapback] I understand and agree with your point. But it's not about Drew Haddad, it's Tom Donahoe's arrogance. He made a mistake with the 36th pick of the 2002 draft, cut ties and move on. It's not just Reed, look at Kelsay (2nd round 2003) and Denney (2nd round 2002). A 2nd round draft pick should be a decent player in the NFL. The Bills have second round draft picks splitting time at DE and together the make up an average NFL player. It shouldn't be too much to ask for your second round draft choices to be better than average (marginal in Reed's case) NFL players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So saying that He is splitting time w/ denney is a relatively invalid statement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Tuesday Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 Sape made the team over Gause and Ritzman - one of this camp's biggest surprises IMO. Makes no sense. You can never have too many passrushers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have an injured, legitimate #2 WR right now in roscoe parrish. We have the practice squad to be made up, and we have reed, still holding onto a roster spot. Plus, if reed were as bad as we all think he is, he'd be long gone. I'm through giving josh reed the benefit of the doubt, but i'm not through with TD. He's been a fairly decent Prez/GM of the bills. By week eight, we'll see if Josh Reed is still a Buffalo Bill, or if he's playing madden with bobby shaw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaron Schobel seems to be on the field an awful lot. 428977[/snapback] Defense is harder on the body to play, hence why D-ends and linebackers also get some rest off the field. And I quote Marv Levy, "you always want to have enough depth on the D-line, so you can rotate your guys out in waves." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
