enlighten us on Lafayette you smug know it all please

former land of the free

I have been reading up on Marquis de Lafayette and he is the unsung hero of the revolution. He had an amazing interesting life and is just as much a factor in the US winning as Washington. Lafayette believed in liberty for all and foresaw the potential greatness of the USA. He helped start the French revolution, and when he returned to USA from France he had probably the greatest reception anyone has ever had in this country. Rock stars have nothing on Lafayette. When Washington died, Lafayette took some soil from the site, and took it back with him to France. So Lafayette is buried in American soil in France. You see Lafayette's name all over- towns, roads, colleges. But few know his story. If you are not familiar I highly recommend you read up on this great American hero Lafayette was a fervent believer of freedom for all. And slavery abhorred him. He truly recognized what this country is supposed to be premised on

BPA always. Reaching for need is how you end up awful- like the Bills the past 10 years

Amen to that. Happy Holidays!

Exactly. I like Moats and think he might be a solid player for us. But our linebackers were abysmal last year and there are no guarantees Merriman and Moats are the answer. That is putting a lot of faith that Merriman can overcome a severe injury. And how much of his performance was steroid based? He was great 4 years ago. It has been awhile since I have seen Merriman show that kind of ability. And it is quite the assumption to think Moats will be the pass rusher we are desperate for and solve our rush defense problems. As far as Kelsay- the Bills see something in him I don't see- just like Aaron Maybin, Derek Dockery, Cornell Green etc. We continually let good players walk and overpay for mediocre players. Kelsay is decent depth, but hardly someone I would pay like they are a cornerstone of the franchise. And like my original post stated- Kyle Williams is the only player on defense that earned his starting position IMO. Every other position can be upgraded and there should be open competition. May the best player win

I am warming up to Gabbert and think there is a good chance we draft him. Dalton is the other QB I like. Newton is radioactive, stay away

didn't that Gabbert article say he could throw a football 75 yards?

well how much production have we gotten from Kelsay, Moats and Merriman? In a 3-4 the pressure comes from the outside backers and our pass rush is in desperate need of an upgrade. And they have not exactly done well against the run either. Kyle Williams earned his spot on defense. He is about the only one. Every other position should be up for grabs, may the best player win

in a nanosecond!

I am not sold on us getting the Merriman of a few years ago and would have a plan b in place. If Merriman is healthy my guess is he plays strong side. It would be a spirited camp battle between Miller and Moats. Moats might start at weakside, with Miller coming in on passing if Moats somehow beat out Miller for the job

1 Von Miller OLB 2 Jabaal Sheard DE/OLB 3-Andy Dalton QB 4-Jason Pinkston, RT 4b-Kelvin Sheppard ILB 5-Greg Romeus DE 6-Byron Stingley T 7-Patrick Hill FB with a little luck, we might get lucky that some great value slides down a little. resign Florence, Poz, and Whitner. LDE Carrington-Romeus-McCargo NT Kyle-Troup RDE Sheard-Johnson-Edwards SLB Merriman-Kelsay MLB-Batten-Torbor-Sheppard WLBPoz-Coleman JLB-Miller-Moats-Maybin LCB- McGee-Corner-Youboty RCB-Florence-McKelvin FS-Byrd- Wilson SS Whitner-Scott qb Fitzpatrick-Brown-Dalton FB McIntyre-Hill WR-Nelson-Jones-Easley RB Jackson-Spiller-Ganther LT Bell-Wang-Pinkston LG-Levitre-Howard C- Wood-Hangartner RG- Rhinehart-Brown RT-Wrotto-Howard-Pears TE- Nelson-Martin-Stupar WR-Johnson-Parrish-Roosevelt I would sign a big back for short yardage and keep looking for upgardes at TE, RT, and CB Version 1.0 not bad and a tad optimistic, but in realm of possibility. This looks like a good football team IMO

That's great, it starts with and earthquake...

LOL I was thinking it was the 3 year olds reaction to the Maybin selection. Then the kid promptly vomited, cursing like a truck driver all the while new $650 on amazon....and I saw cheaper online

what the hell does that have to with the Bills? Is your assumption kind of like "my daddy could beat up your daddy?". I hope Maybin becomes a football player. But it is a thin line between hope and folly. Maybin has shown me nothing yet. And I am still amazed we wasted a high draft pick on him another internet tough guy

reaching big time for Mallet and not addressing ILB. I do like it otherwise after the first round

Sold. Good chance he does go in the first. I bet he goes higher then projected and that teams are keeping quiet about Sheard for a reason. Me personally- I would love to see us draft Miller and Sheard and terrorize QB's. And in a perfect world, Maybin learns to bring it too. In my Bills dream they pummel Brady like the Giants did in the Superbowl. Another great scenerio is the trade down and get Sheard. Our #1 biggest need IMO is a pass rusher. And it don't matter if we get it at pick 3 or late in the 1st. And the more the merrier

Bills Nation best mock so far. First one awful, second better, third best yet

I like both. Isn't Romeus injured? I thought I read somewhere he might miss most/all next season. Even so I would spend a 4th on him. There are some Jabaal Sheard fans here

ask Great White

This was on Mythbusters. They had subjecs make up a list of random words to yell when in pain "Marshmellow. Puppy Dogs. Grilled Cheese" etc and then had subject submerge their arm in ice water and try and keep it their for 3 minutes. Then they tried the same experiment, and allowed them to swear. There was a noticeable increase in how long they could withstand the ice water when they were allowed to swear. so !@#$ off !@#$ !@#$ !@#$ing !@#$ers

It sounds like he will fit right in the NFL

BTW it is delusional, not dillusional. It always cracks me up when someone is condescending and can't spell or use proper grammar. For example when people type "your an idiot" instead of "you're an idiot". Get a grasp of the English language before attempting to put others down
