sidbuff Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 This is from Adam Schein on FOXSPORTS.COM "It's a fun time to search for a potential playoff shocker. As of right now, I believe the Buffalo Bills will be the surprise postseason team in the AFC. Trent Edwards has experience under his belt. Marshawn Lynch is a budding star. The offensive line is very strong. The defense is supremely coached under the vastly underrated Dick Jauron. The special teams are incredibly strong. And I think Buffalo, in relatively quiet fashion, cleaned up this offseason. The Bills had needs at cornerback, linebacker, defensive tackle and wide receiver. They filled them all. Jauron was borderline giddy when I talked to the Buffalo coach after the Bills smartly plucked cornerback/return specialist Leodis McKelvin in the first round. He will make an immediate impact in both phases. Trading for defensive tackle Marcus Stroud was the savviest deal of the offseason. Stroud, teamed with John McCargo inside and Chris Kelsay and Aaron Schobel on the outside, will form a dominant defensive line. While Buffalo overpaid for Kawika Mitchell, he is an upgrade at linebacker. And Paul Posluszny is back at linebacker, returning from his injury that curtailed his rookie season. Plus, Jauron and the Bills stole James Hardy in Round 2. The tall receiver with fly-paper hands has a great knack for scoring touchdowns and compliments Lee Evans incredibly well.

Whites Bay Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 It's nice to get those kudos, and it's a wonderful dreamy ride down the stream at this point in the off season. Before I let myself get sucked into the whirlpool, however, I'll pick a couple of bones with that piece: 1) The Bills' Special Teams are not "incredibly strong". They have a great kicker, an all-world punter, and a couple of smokin' hot punt- and kick returners. But the loss of the "Aikens" of this world in the off season probably reduces the unit from "incredibly strong" to "strong". Sorry if I'm picking nits, but we've all become accustomed to starting on the 40- or 45-yard line, and having our opponents start on the 19. I'll reserve judgement until about Game 4. 2) Along the same line, I'll reserve judgement on the interior D-Line until about Game 4 as well. It all comes down to Stroud's ankle. If he gets back to even 85%, he'll be better than anything WE'VE had up front for years. If not, however, opponents are going to come up with ways to single-team him....and then we're right back to where we started, just without Tim Anderson. And would everyone try a little decaf as regards Hardy? Let's see, what can anyone here do about it...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillnutinHouston Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 You can tell it's a puff piece when there's no mention of the TE position, nor our offensive/defensive rankings last year. It's blowing smoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson from Gamehendge Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 I think it has been posted but that's cool. It is pretty much still accurate but obviously was written before Hardy tried to kill his father. Some of you people NEED to DROP IT! NO CHARGES! NOBODY HURT! BIG MISUNDERSTANDING! It is a non-issue and his SCUMBAG of a father needs to get scared and/or pistol whipped, for not being a part of his child's life...until he got rich! JAMES HARDY FOR PRESIDENT...KING...AND POPE!

I agree. It just made it a lot easier to choose my new jersey. I'm going with Lynch 23 Medium instead of Hardy 44 Magnum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is sad but it is a fact that something like 83% of children in this country are born out of wedlock. Is James Hardy's father suddenly to blame for this entire problem or should all absent fathers get killed by their kids? Before you get all angry, I know this was only attempted murder but it easily could have gone the other way. Kids deserve better from their parents but that is no excuse to kill them or even to try.

Are you sure about that? Come on, I think we would all back Demetrius Bell, if he pulled out a 22 on Karl Malone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
