suck really bad
Maybe I am missing something here, but what website is !@#$ anyway?
-
We will probably end up signing Bryant Johnson for 5 million won't we?
I believe he already signed somewhere, I think Detroit...
-
Boldin, love the idea of him but don't need someone who is a bigger drama queen and distraction than Peters
Holt, old and cant play outside
Edwards, lead the league in drops last year i believe. saw him play a couple of times and it was horrible. no thanks.
and im not here just to crap on your suggestions. those are just my honest opinions of the guys listed. i guess out of the three Id like to have Boldin the most. IF we can keep him "happy".
Its cool...I just listed who looks to be the best of who's available.
In regards to your analysis...Boldin is notthing like what Peters was last year. Boldin played his tail off, had a great season, and even palyed against doctors orders with screws in his face. The guy is a warrior. His sideline outburst was because he felt he should be on the field for the most important drive in Cardinals history, and I agree...
Holt I think has more left in the tank than you are giving him credit for, and besides, we have our deep threat already in Lee.
Braylon does drop a lot of passes, but he's still a top WR with lots of upside IMO.
If I had my choice, it would be Boldin, but would love any of the 3. Although, I still think a recieving threat at TE is a bigger need, getting someone like these guys would be huge. In fact, I dont think we could make a bigger impact on our team than getting Boldin...
-
Sorry to be a wiseass, but how difficult is it to scan the top 2 headlines to see that a thread has already been started? And it's not like this one came in within a few seconds of the other one?
-
Hopefully that's who they'll go after too
Yeah, that's what I am hoping for...TE is definitely a bigger need than WR.
-
I should have also added Scheffler to the list via trade...he's not a WR, but he's big pass catching TE and would still be a huge addition to our offense...
-
Finally, the Coles saga is done...so now what? The Bills clearly seemed interested in bringing in another WR, so what's left out there in FA or trade?
The only FA WR I see as a viable candidate, and more of a stop gap until our young guys can take over, is Marvin Harrison, but I would bet he likely plays in his home town Philly next year if he plays at all.
Outside of that, I think the only other WR's I can see as potentially available are via trade...
AZ (Boldin) - I find it interesting that even though Warner offered a $1 million dollar per year discount if they agreed to rework Boldin's deal, AZ didnt take it. So, my guess is that this still ends in Boldin being traded...
Rams (Holt) - Supossedly he is available and I think we could get him at a reasonable price...
Cle (Braylon) - He is also supposedly available, but he may commmand a lot in return and has a tendency to drop passes.
I think Holt is the more likely scenario, but I would love either of those 3. Outside of them or Harrison though, I don't see anyone else worth bringing in...
-
you are obsessed
having said that, $7 Million a year they can have him.
Just saying, if I am a WR I look at who is getting me the ball...a proven Elite QB like Palmer who throws all over the field or an unproven conservative QB like Edwards...so I dont blame him for looking hard at Cincy and going there...
Not to mention, that is too much money to tie up in Coles IMO...
-
Maybe Buffalo inquires about Braylon Edwards now since its rumored he may be available for trade...
-
Nope...another BS false rumor...
-
Too much, but if I was Coles I would MUCH rather catch passes from Carson Palmer than Trent Edwards...
-
Either way its about when we should have drafted Johnson over Collins and not given up the picks for him.
That is rediculous...if Johnson "should have" been drafted sooner, then he would have by someone...in hindsight, every team in the NFL should have drafted Tom Brady and Terell Davis in the first round, in fact #1 overall in their drafts, but they didnt get drafted until the late rounds...why, because he draft is a crap shoot and there is no way to accurately project a player to the NFL. All they can do is make their best guess based on the limited information available...
You doomsday people crack me up about how you look back on the draft as if you could have done any better in that war room. I guarantee you that none of you even draft Brady or Davis in those drafts knowing what you knew going into the draft...

Eddie Royal was taken in the second round last year with the very next pick by the Chiefs after James Hardy. You know how that rookie WR did? How's 91 catches for 980 YDS & 5 TD's grab you? The Bills could have drafted him instead of Hardy, but then again, the Bills needed that elusive "tall" wideout for the red zone, right?
I guess we should thank Tom Donahoe of all people, for drafting Josh Reed, Lee Evans and Roscoe. Since then, the Bills have not been able to find a pass catcher out of college who could remember what foot goes in front of the other, much less a potential Pro Bowler.
On the other hand, it looks like the circle jerks may have lucked onto their version of Donahoe's Jason Peters' undrafted rookie free agency signing, with 7th round pick Stevie Johnson from last year's draft. If the kid can pick up where he left off, he could be a great story.
Please...come on now, talk about over simplifying this. Lee Evans in Denver last year would have easily put up 1500+ yards and 15 TD's...did he do that in Buffalo? No, because of our inept passing attack. Royal played with a QB who passed for over 4500 yards and got a chance to start opposite a big WR needing double teams constantly and along side a big time recieving threat at TE. If Royal would have been in Buffalo, I doubt he does even 1/3 as well in terms of production. Trent Edwards and JP Losman QB combination last year was not even remotely close to Cutler's performance...
If we took Royal last year, you would be on here complaining about how we draft WR's still right now at this very moment. You would be screaming about how we always draft midget WR's and we still need a big compliment next to Evans, because there is no chance in hell that Royal would have had the same impact here as he got in Denver...

I dont see any indication of a Coles signing in any of the links other than the coach saying more moves were on the way...I mean he didnt even indicate if those moves pertain to the WR position specifically and even sounded like he likes his young guys they drafted last year.
The fact that the deal Coles seems to be seeking is nearly what TJ got, logic would tell me that Cincy wont pay Coles that considering they didnt want to pay TJ that even though TJ is a better WR who knows the system and has great rapport with Palmer.
So, I doubt very much this story...

Just a friendly request to the other posters of this board…Tim is a busy guy, so can we keep the posts here to real questions for Tim so he doesn’t have to work so hard sifting through all these pages to find the questions to respond to? He is nice enough to do this, but we are already on page 3 of this thread and its going to make it hard for him to answer questions if he has to sift through pages and pages of unrelated posts just to find a question.
We have a whole message board to make jokes and have fun, let’s show our appreciation to Tim for taking the time to do this and make it easier for him by keeping this thread to questions only.

Tim,
Given Buffalo's interest in RB's such as Fred Taylor, Kevin Jones, and DeShaun Foster, who to me seem to be very capable RB's at still at this point in their careers, do you think the Bills may be thinking about may be moving either Lynch of Jackson via trade? Seems these RB's are more suited as a #2 RB than a #3 at this point, so I wonder if the Bills are entertaining the idea of trading Lynch or Jackson and bringing one of these guys in as the backup to whoever we keep. I know Lynch could be looking at suspension, but Jackson has shown to be capable of handling the load just fine, so seems weird we would bring a RB of this caliber in as a #3 RB just in case Lynch is suspended a couple of games.
Seems like AZ (Boldin), Den (Scheffler), and KC (Waters) might be good trading partners if we did decide to move one of our 2 backs...do you have any reason to think the FO is thinking the same thing?
-
Ok, first Fred Taylor, then Kevin Jones, and now DeShaun Foster…this is starting to look suspicious to me. All three of these guys are very capable RB’s at this stage of their career. I just don’t see why we would need RB’s of this caliber to be our #3 RB, even with the possible suspension of Lynch.
I mean Fred Jackson is more than capable of handling the load if Lynch misses 2-4 games and did just fine carrying the bulk of the load when he has had to. I know he will need some help, but isn’t that what we drafted Oman for? Seems like we are bringing guys in better suited as at least a #2 RB.
So, I am wondering if Buffalo is looking at a possibility of either Lynch or Jackson not being here this up coming year, I would assume via a trade if that was the case. Could Buffalo have the idea that they may look into trading Lynch once they have found a capable backup to Jackson? Or maybe trading Jackson if they find what would be a capable back up to Lynch?
Im not claiming they are, and I could be way off base, but I am starting to wonder...
For fun, lets say they maybe are entertaining the idea of moving one of our backs once we sign a new backup...possible trading partners be for one of our backs could be...
Arizona: Boldin is still unhappy and they still need a RB.
Denver: Looking to move Scheffler and they seem to be looking for a #1 RB.
KC: Apparently Waters is available and looking to get a replacement for LJ possibly.
-
I do disagree with the article saying Lions are most likely landing spot...I doubt they bring in another QB, especially since they are likely going with a QB in the first round with one of their 2 picks and they have Culpepper already.
JP's landing spots are decreasing though...KC and Minn already got the QB's they are looking for. I would say Jets and SF are the more logical choices and may offer him a chance to competer to start.
-
JP being #10 is not that shocking to me...I've been saying, he is not viewed as negatively around the NFL as much as the Bills fans on this board see him. Its widely believed he was grossly mishandled here, and when a kid has that much raw ability, there will always be a coach who think they can get more out of him.
Im not endorsing him, just saying he isnt viewed as bad as the posters on this board. As always, many posters go to the extreme in player evaluation (Trent is god and can do no wrong, JP belongs in AFL kind of thing), doesnt mean real football minds in the NFL agree...
-
Thanks Tim!
Any word on whether Buffalo has explored a trade for Scheffler?
-
I still think if its possible, id like for Buffalo to find a way or at least make an attempt to see what it would take to get Rodgers or Edwards from the Browns to Bills......cant hurt, all they can say is they want to much or no.....
Once again, because its not in the media doesnt mean they havent already. I doubt they are interested in Edwards, especially if we have signed coles as rumored. But, for all we know they may have called about either of those guys. Just because we dont get them doesnt mean we didnt look into it. If there is an impact player available at a price that makes sense, I am sure our FO will be looking into it regardless of what ones opinnion of the FO is.
-
I agree somewhat........
If Trent Edwards goes down with an injury, our season is over. Granted its going to be hard enough as is with Edwards as the QB, but season will be all but over if Fitzpatrick has to come in. I still would have liked to see Buffalo grab a different QB. The reason they wanted a true backup in Buffalo is to avoid a QB controversy.........to me thats pretty lame!
Tells me they are going make or break with Edwards this year. He either steps up this year, or we draft a QB in round 1 in 2010 in top 15 or acquire one via trade/FA.

Most teams don't have holes at every position except punter.
some are worse off and need a punter too
-
This is exactly what the Bills should have done with a new Coach. Shake the crap out of this pathetic organization and scrap any and all losers on this team.
Go get em Dickless and Ralph!! Weeeeeeeeeeeee
Um, we did cut some dead weight...
