Smart man Rob...you're not wrong

Good post...I agree that Kelsay may get cut. I just don't see him transitioning to outside linebacker. First time i have heard Drunkenmiller's name in the Bills ownership convo. Did you actually hear something or is it pure conjecture on your part?

He definately has an education from the school of Hard Knock Ups

Sanchez definately benefited from playing on a team with a very good defense. The Jets might have won the superbowl with a healthy Favre. I think Sanchez has a lot to prove this year. I for one didn't think he was worth the price the Jets paid to get him, but the jury is still out on him. Ryan said Sanchez worked as hard as anyone he as ever seen during the off season but that's all talk untill the player translates the hard work into results on the field.

Great point. No one should ask another person to leave the board because they don't like their opinion. I am glad there are optimistis fans on the board, butI can't help but feel somewhat less than optimistic about this team, this year. Nothing wrong with both sides being here.

I think Buddy cares, but I think he knows this isn't a one year fix. This will take at least three years to build if they are going to do it the way they originally claimed. Buddy clearly said he would build this team through the draft and a few middle of the road free agents. He never promised any big splashes in free agency. So if they do it right, it will take at least 3 years. If their draft picks don't pan out, the misery will continue. At least Buddy seems to be a good evaluator of talent, which is what the Bills will need to make this plan work. In any event, this year will be hard on Bills fans, in my opinion.

I agree. We would be hiring a new coach every year with that standard.

This ieatCrayonz person is just playing this board. He or she says what they say to get a reaction. I think he or she should just be ignored.

My advice to Bills fans this year..have plenty of beer in the fridge.

thank you Doc

Yes i agree. Howard Simon should be embarrassed to admit that he didn't do his job. He reminds me of Billy Joe Hobert when he admitted he hadn't studied the playbook. We all know what happened to Billy Joe. I like Howard Simon, but that's just awful. he did his listeners a disservive. His boss needs to call him in and give him a wake up call. He didn't do his job.

I think Kelsay might actually get cut. I don't see him transitioning very well to outside linebacker. Plus he makes too much money to be a part time player. Also the injury puts him way behind. Maybe they trade him, maybe he gets cut is my thinking

How much will they save after they cut Chris Kelsay? I don't see him transitioning very well to outside linebacker in the 3-4.

They are definately going to take some lumps this year. This team is not very good. Maybe they are anticipating a new Labor deal with a rookie salary cap. Then the huge risk factor in taking a QB early in the draft would be alleviated. This organization, with RW leading the way, does think about money first in most matters. Maybe they have to, because of the market their in. I don't know how much this team makes bottom line, but I do think decisions are made based on the bottom line. I do know they don't have the kind of money teams like Dallas have, so maybe it's a survival issue.

You lost me when you said Poz and Wood were very mediore at best. Those two may not be great players at this point, but they are far from very mediocre. Very Irresponsible comment, in my opinion, which makes your entire post not worth reading.

Don't be sorry...Trent was bad. It looks like we don't have an NFL calibre starting Qb on our roster. Fitz is a backup. Maybe Brohm will show something next game. I kind of doubt it though.

it better be. We won't have much of a passing attack

He did look bad. Offensive line couldn't pass protect. No pass rush from the starting defense. This team is awful.

good points..maybe buddy knows what he's doing

http://www.buffalobills.com/team/depth-chart-list.html there was also an article in the News about Torbor starting .

I sure hope you're wrong, but if he can't beat out Torbor.......

It is looking like Torbor will start ahead of Maybin. Considering where Maybin was drafted, shouldn't he be good enough to start on this team? Should we be concerned that he might be a bust? I do know it's early but at what point does Maybin own this label?

Because last year we had TO..and if you didn't start, you were not involved last year. Hardy was drafted high, so Jauron probably would have favored him. This seemed to be Jauron's pattern of thinking. Look at what happened when Lynch came back from his suspension. Everyone else could see that Freddy should continue to start, buy Jauron saw it differently. He also refused to move Maybin to linebacker.

yes, the nose tackle is very important in this defense. Not sure Williams can sustain this position at his weight, but he will sure give it his best. Troup has got to continue to improve and eventualy become the starter.

Sad to say, but I think you're right....and Maybin would still be a DE
