Fan in Chicago Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 AP style omits the hyphen in most cases where "over" is used as a prefix. And the overreaction I'm citing, of course, was the one in the first post of this thread. Never mind then, carry on. I was wondering if you thought the discussion by other posters was said overreaction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBill Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 Chris Brown Reports from OTAs: "Veterans Kirk Chambers and Seth McKinney continue to hold down the starting roles at the two guard positions on the offensive line. Rookies Andy Levitre and Eric Wood are still being rotated in however, a good portion of the time. " For those of you who think our Offensive line will be upgraded this year...here is a newsflash....These guys aren't even getting starting reps. And oh by the way...Chambers and McKinney (who are currently starting over the kids) did not even start over Fowler and Preston last year... THAT'S how far off these guys are. This is just sickening. They are rookies and this is only OTA's - give it time and we will see. Chances are by camp one or both will get first team reps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thurman#1 Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 LOL, It's OTA's man. OTA's is where you learn the playbook and the NFL game. Where people start means nothing at this point. Every team out there in the NFL doesn't throw their rookies to thew wolves day one one of OTA's. It takes time. The Bills like every other NFL team brings them up gradually. You also need to understand that rookie Lineman will struggle with Blitz pickups. You have two options throw them to the wolves and let them get frustrated or let them watch some vets do it and then bring them in gradually. They will be starting by the end of training camp baring injury. Or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steely Dan Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Vested vets get the nod over rooks until the pads go on. Nothing to see here... What he said. Rooks rarely get a number one spot on the depth chart without earning it first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams rarely update their depth charts after the draft. Some don't update them at all. The Jets' official site still lists Brett Favre as their starting quarterback. The Dolphins have a policy that they won't post any depth charts during the offseason. The reason is because they can be so misleading this time of year.

Lori Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 True enough. Heck, some teams still mess with them during the season.

And oh by the way...Chambers and McKinney (who are currently starting over the kids) did not even start over Fowler and Preston last year... THAT'S how far off these guys are. This is just sickening. the only thing sickening is this post.you show your total ignorance and how truly clueless you are about the NFL game. the truth is rookies are never inserted into the starting lineup especially in OTA's. its a common respect for the veterans to list them as starters and give them the reps in OTA's and in the begining of training camp. christ the rookies dont even know the freaking play book yet.when its time to compete in training camp things will quickly change. the truth of the matter is the talent always rises to the top and both livitire and wood are much more talented and athletic than chambers and mckinney and that will be quite obvious in training camp and in the pre season. livitire was the number one rated guard in the draft even though he played tackle in collage and wood was listed as one of the top 2 centers in the draft. so the bills selected the top 2 inside o/line players in the draft. they did not do that to sit them. the bills were determined to be much more stout @ the center and guard positions and hangartner,wood and livitire were brought on board just for that purpose. they all play with a nasty streak and most importently they are very intelligent football players. to put out such a stupid post after OTA's just shows you dont have a clue. believe me come opening day both rookies will be starting. they did not draft them in the first round and trade back into the second round if their intentions were to sit these kids considering their other needs especially @ LB. if the bills had any intentions of seriously starting chambers or mckinney they would not have invested such high picks in guards. i know you dont know this by posting such a BS post but its very common and easy to start rookies @ the guard position in their rookie season it happens every year. i'll be kind and just say your jumping the gun because obviously you dont understand the game very well.

Wood and I had an especially enjoyable chat about Louisville, where I have a lot of family and he plans to make his permanent home. That's good to hear--too often it's mainly the negative stories that you see, a la Vick and Stallworth, these days. My wife and I got to meet Eric Wood at a Bills Backers event in NYC last month and I agree that he seemed like a good guy, very earnest and seemed to be very glad to be both in the League and playing for the Bills. Let's hope he and Levitre both have long and productive careers in the Red, White and Blue! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DIE HARD 1967 Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Its a long way to opening day. What were you expecting? Rookies to step in a beat out veterans in mini camp? It just does not happen that way in the NFL. Bruce Smith wasn't even the starter till after preseason You don't just hand these guys starting jobs, the veterans deserve that much from the team.

Dan Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Let's face it both of these guys are complete busts and just further proof that th FO is run by idiots. Neither Wood nor Levitre are starters, not to even mention they've done absolutely nothing to help the running game. Has Lynch or Jackson had one decent run behind them? No. Have they provided a key block for a touchdown? No. Look at Lynch's stats... he's done nothing since we picked both these guys. Facts are facts and you can't argue with figures. And the fact is neither of these guys have done anything worth getting on Sportscenter. I say trade them both now while we can still get a 5th rounder and a bag of chips for them. Busts. Called it first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
