I will second the fact that the OP is kind of misleading. Here I was thinking that he was gone for good. That said, I'm looking at this with cautious optimism. I think that he and Dareus together are going to be an improvement if we can get another two people on the line to help that are halfway decent.

You know, I have to say I'm kind of regretful is this is true. I think he has shown flashes of greatness, but he keeps. Getting. Hurt. He's never going to be anywhere higher than a slot receiver and punt returner for us.

Yeah, I can see us trading down to get a high second round pick. We have enough needs in enough places that one silver bullet isn't going to cut it.

Well, I'm not going to object to building the O-line or the D-line That said, I do honestly think that our defense is should be the top priority. If a solid DE is graded higher and somehow makes it through the cracks I would take one any day.

I think we definitely should. The question of when is still up in the air for me as well. As many people have pointed out, he has another year on his contract and we have free agency issues which have to be dealt with NOW! That said, I think that if this summer may be a good time to bang this out. Fred is our best player, and I want to see him around for a few years. I think that he and Spiller can become an unholy combination

Look, I don't think anyone is going to deny that we an infusion of talent at WR. At this point Stevie is our only real threat. That said, we better get a damn good deal on VJ to make it worth it. This is something that we can fix with a 2nd round pick. Our offense is built off of spreading the field and letting Fitz hit whoever is hot. While it would be nice to have the worry out of the way, I've got to put more priority on picking up some people for our D-line.

I think it's worth looking into. That said, he would not be our number 1, so he would need to accept that fact and be willing to take a pay reduction. So, all in all while I would love to have him I have a feeling that we aren't going to get him.

Announcers were saying in one game that Johnson was repeatedly beating Revis. I have no doubt that Johnson is good. But he doesn't seem like the clutch guy, the guy who nails the game winning catch in the back of the end zone. Make no mistake, I want him back. He has great moves and can usually find ways to get open. But if the game is on the line I'm looking at Chandler (who we ALSO should keep) or Fred Jackson. (who we BETTER keep)

I'm going to say yes, especially if we are interested in picking up someone is free agency.

How does Fred Jackson fit into this? I have to assume that he is further down the list, but I don't know how much, especially when you start talking about Brady and Welker.

Maybe Chan is such a genius he can figure out how to get yards without Spiller touching the ball. Actually come to think of it he did. Remember early when spiller had his man beat and drew a PI call for tons of yards?

I'm not sure if the thing is meant to be a stealth parody. I don't see the article posted online yet but I will add it when I find it. In it, he talks about Spiller being a bust, which has some merit, but promptly provides legitimate reasons for a lack of products while stating that they are illegitimate. Let's face it: Spiller has not had too many yards. He also hasn't had that many touches. On Sunday he was given two, for five yards. Let's admit here people, that's not much and it certainly wasn't because Fred Jackson was playing amazingly well. Sully also talks about how Spiller hasn't been let into the spread, but when he did last game he thrived. In short, I personally think that the only way to get more production out of Spiller is to let him touch the football a few times on O.

It's a good problem to have. I hope that in a few weeks we'll be a lot healthier.

Byrd I'm not sure about. This is not casting aspersions about his play, which has been quite good, but Wilson has been a beast: four interceptions and he leads the team with tackles. He's definitely the stronger of the two.

LOL. Sure, why not? I don't want to give Jauron more credit than I have to.

Ahh. I got OP's sarcasm but not yours. My apologies.

Well, you'll always find a way. But that was one of the best games we've played this season (maybe on par with NE).

I would agree that our O-line has made strides. We haven't given up a lot of sacks, and Fitz usually had plenty of time against the "number one sack team in the NFL". Like with the Eagles.

Why the hell would you want to be average?

I think it's a combo of putting more pressure on the QB and a shaky O-line to exploit. That said, the Bills did a good job sniffing out weakness and pouncing on it. We managed to bring pressure, which disrupted everything.

You're right. I mean, come on, having 9 sacks in one game, still being the leaders in turnover margin and giving up the least points in our division clearly isn't enough to have a decent defense. Oh wait, that's the OPPOSITE of right.

The man did a good job! I was worried about Williams being out, but the Dareus, Edwards, Johnson combo worked quite well. I'll be happy when K. Williams come back, but I am relieved to see Dareus playing this well as a rookie.

Either way, I think it's going to be a good game. The Bills look like they fixed a lot of problems today, and the Jets showed they aren't pushovers with the SD game. I would say that it's one of the three biggest games next week (those being Giants-Patriots and Ravens-Steelers)

Agreed. Like I said: It's early. Really early. This is just a projection, based on what we've seen so far.

I agree that it's going to be a big game. It isn't the end all, be all, but a win here would do a lot in terms of standing, tiebreakers and give us some momentum going into a long road trip.
