John from Riverside Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 You know we could go a much cheaper and more effective route.... ....the jills would have to "trim a little off" ....need to change their cheerleading routine a bit "that girl is slapping the other one on the @ss Jimmy!" "just get them to stop shaking their @ss for one minute Jimmy!"

Acantha Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 No big deal. RB's tend to stop when they reach the end zone anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koufax Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 Yeah, can't win without stopping the run....oh wait...Indianapolis says hi... Joking aside, I think doing better against the run is important, but I fully expect us to already be able to do better now than last year before adding anybody in the draft (and I think we will get an impact DT or LB in round 1). I think 2007 Larry-McCargo-Kyle-Hargrove is better than what we had last year, and I think 2007 Ellison-Crowell-Spikes is better than what we had last year (counting injuries, which isn't quite fair). Getting better against the run is important, but that wasn't London's strength, TKO was not the player he should be in 2007, McCargo missed the year, and the whole team was in the first year of a new system that relies on the pieces working together in sync. But I do think this is a big enough worry that I would love a front 7 guy if we can at #12. Willis/Okoye + 2nd round RB makes us a better team than Lynch + 2nd round LB/DT.

Nanker Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 Who is going to stop the run? Who's running now? Maybe the Orchard Park Police could apprehend the scoundrel that's running all over the field at OBD now in the offseason. I'd certainly feel better if no one were allowed to be running there now. Too bad the season doesn't start tomorrow. It would be fun to watch. Thank Gosh we have a couple months to add a few more players. You do believe in Gosh don't you?

JAMIEBUF12 Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 as the great greg williams once proclaimed......"we are gonna stop the run with numbers" lol lol.......actually i have faith in mccargo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsVet Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 Marv and DJ are confident. In what we're not sure. But if last season's, "we're going to be quicker" mentality remains, it's going to be a long season. Of course it's not for another 5 months until opening day, but some people haven't figured out the people who may stop the run are assembled in March and April. Without DT's in the middle, your "attacking" LB's will quickly become "pursuers." Trust in Marv? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybob Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 we have big needs at LB,DT,CB,RB and to a lesser extent WR, TE you just can't fill all those holes in one draft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apuszczalowski Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 OK then, so they don't draft a RB in round 1, whos gonna run the ball for Buffalo? Shaud and Thomas at RB is about the equivelant of Anderson and Tripplett at DT The key is, at the #12 spot, is there choices of RB better then their choices of DT or LB?

I guess the Super Bowl Champion, Indianapolis Colts, were crazy for taking a RB in first round last year instead of working on their horrid defensive line?

Stamer, Wire and Haggins marginal at best. If they draft a RB in the first round their nuts!. Drafting a RB in the 1st round will be a regretted move by this team, there is too much to question about Lynch and Peterson will most likely be snatched up by #12. I really hope that the Bills take a DT or LB in the 1st round. Lately with Jaurons comments about A-Train I don't see the Bills grabbing a RB in the 1st.
