Demetrius Bell - Now an Eagle
Deadstroke replied to voodoo poonani's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Sounds like good, logical, and sound reasoning to resign him. Problem is; we won't! -
Nice (Bills related) article on the Wildcat/Option
Deadstroke replied to Kelly the Dog's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Smith can run it alright, it's just that as we all know their was no training before camp last year leaving them up a tree for new ideas. -
They just have to make up their minds...is their someone they have definitely targeted at #10? If not, trade down! Simple scenario, but the Bills seldom trade down.
-
Calm down, crayonz. They are 2 good players. Can't go wrong!!

I big time second it on Easley. I have been (im)patiently waiting for him to debut for 2 yrs now and believe he has a chance to make it big. 6'2", 220lbs, 4.46 40 dash, and this will be his 3rd training camp. I look for big things from him!

Remember this name on draft day...
Deadstroke replied to Kaenon's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Guys like that you just pick, but not too high, and train and hope. -
I like Floyd alright, after that I'm a bit lukewarm.

Judge orders players, owners back to mediation
Deadstroke replied to JÂy RÛßeÒ's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
And what about the many players, 99, who sign contracts just to fill in for a week or 2, and really might never play. They are in fact NFL players and if I have my math straight, they bring the averages down. Hey, I mean all you have to do is go down the roster of your favorite team and you'll see that the average is in fact NOT 3.5 years. I took the Bills roster, divided it up, and came up with an avg of 5.8 yrs per player. Lower than I thought, but not 3.5. -
Looks good to me, boozer.

Sorry but I couldn't go any farther after reading our needs from your post. I disagree with QB, LT, TE (we don't target the TE often because of need for pass protection), WR, and NT. The players that we have at those positions rank from avg to pretty darned good. Your analysis is a bit too negative for my blood.

This 'anonymous source' makes a good point
Deadstroke replied to nodnarb's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Nelson has all the receiving ability the Bills need, the problem is that at the present time we feel the need for max blocking so the TE stays in and therefore as you can see by the stats, no significant receiving at the TE position. Shame! But hopefully it'll change as the OL improves. -
Why can't Fitz be the face of the franchise?
Deadstroke replied to FightinIrishBills's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Bell is improving greatly game by game....IMO we may just need a RT and continue to groom the others. -
Gotta love this quote from Wood
Deadstroke replied to Mike in Syracuse's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Fitz has small hands....doesn't throw well with a wet ball. Besides that, he's adequate for a winning team. -
A Solution to the Spiller Problem
Deadstroke replied to NaPolian8693's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Some of you older guys might remember Lenny Moore of the Baltimore Colts..... Move him around, split him out wide, sometimes in the slot, sometimes in the backfield, sometimes in motion; take advantage of his speed and who is going to cover him and where. We just have to utilize his 3.8 or thereabouts speed. -
PLEASE come out Andrew Luck
Deadstroke replied to John from Riverside's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Luck this, Luck that...maybe he'll be great, maybe he won't, but you know what, even though it's apparent that the majority here don't want to hear it......we need to have a look at, ready for this; Brian Brohm first of all. The kid deserves the chance, almost certainly will get it, and just might surprise. -
I'm all for opening up the game plan. Yeah sure, run alright, but pass deep to open them up because we do have a couple speed demons at WR's in Evans and Roscoe. And as far as the "D", please please please do not rush 3 or 4 and play 7 deep because Sanchez will have all day and pick us apart. BLITZ is the name of the game!!
-
It certainly seems that we're building for next year as it is.....assuming that Bell does develope and Hang is ADAQUATE, that leaves us just one draft choice or FA pickup from a pretty decent line.
-
It is more than obvious this team has No Plan!
Deadstroke replied to billsfreak's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
IMO the draft was not as bad as a lot of people make out. #1 Spiller…..Excellent chance that the man turns out to be an exciting and productive RB. #2 Troup…..Great potential, good choice, is being brought along with care. #3 Carrington…..Great potential, patience is the word here. #4 Easley…..Injury, bad luck, would have been a productive WR this year is not for the injury. #5 Wang…..Injury again, will develop at least into a role player. #6 Moats…..Great potential, changing from DL to LB will take a little time but has all the tools. #7 Batten…..Injury again, would have made to squad if not for the injury bug, great potential. #8 Brown…..Backup, who knows? #9 Calloway…..The only real fizzle! Look at the good side, huh? -
Those are humiliating, and I might say ignorant, predictions. The Bills just MIGHT surprise people. I'm betting that Gailey is building this team the right way; by substituting and evaluating players freely until he sees what he has and makes the right decisions on who and what he has. Unfortunately this week is still a bit soon, but you never know. There IS talent here!!!
-
Gee, nice comparison. I'm guessing Wang is an upgrade if and when healthy.

Will we see Brohm start this season?
Deadstroke replied to MClem06's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'm having a hard time understanding "the problem" with giving Brohm his chance. The guy had somewhat of a chance in GB, did not look good initially, and was given practically nothing after that. With Buffalo he played one game, hardly knowing the 1st teamers names, much less anything about how they played, and looked so-so in terrible weather. This year he looked pretty good in camp, but as we know the order was already ordained, so his playing time was with the 2nd and 3rd stringers who couldn't block or catch a cold, much less a pass, and Gailey, and those of us with an open mind, saw good stuff in the guy. Now that Gailey finally got rid of the obligitory starter, Edwards, Brohm moves up to number 2 where he will finally get some reps with the 1st teamers, and I feel sure, sometime not too long from now, he'll see some meaningful playing time from where we can FINALLY make some kind of determination whether or not the kid has it. Until then all the chatter about how the kid has been a "failure" in his NFL time is just stupid, uneducated BS. Let's wait it out and see...huh!! -
Your right on, my friend, when you imply that this is an auditioning period. We ain't going no where this year, at least for the first half to 3/4 of the season, until Gailey can figure out just who belongs and who doesn't. This is most certainly a rebuilding year and most of the posters on this board need to realize that.

I wish they would do it right away....no one can be worse than Green!!!
