I don't know about franchise QB. I wouldn't draft any of these QB's in the top 10. The Bills should take an OT or Rolondo McClain if they stay at 9. What they should really do is trade down into the teens and pick up another 2nd rounder.

No it's not. He hasn't learned them yet. And Tebow is slow. In the NFL he will not be running like he did in college. He will get run down easily. You want him in the 3rd round, fine. And then have a plan to move him to TE.

McNabb is INFINITELY better than any QB they have or could draft. The fact you even mentioned Tebow tells us all we need to know about your opinion. Don't get a HOF QB because he had a bad game and draft a slow QB with terrible throwing mechanics. Okay...

Who cares what any of these former coaches say? Gailey has to win. Period. That's the only thing that matters. Not analysis. And BTW, Herm Edwards was FAR from the worst coach in the NFL when he was coaching. Clock managment was bad. Still had his teams, when they had some talent, in the playoffs at two different stops.

Bradford is coming off two injuries to his throwing shoulder. Is he healed yet? Clausen needs to do great at the combine, show his accuracy. I wouldn't take either one of them in the top ten if the draft were tomorrow. Although Seattle would bite on a QB where they pick, I'm thinking.

Get outta here with this. All of a sudden ole' Modrak should stay? Because people somehow believe the past 10 years all the picks he wanted went on deaf ears? Guy was dealing with the same "inner circle". He could easily come out and say next week that the "inner circle" didn't take his suggestions because they were too expensive or whatever. BOTH of them need to go. PERIOD. Modrak isn't the only well respected scout in the world people. See Buddy Nix. I don't get the logic of folks thinking Guy was wheeling and dealing on his own without reporting to the inner circle and Modrak was somehow tied down by them. They need to change the energy up in that building and Modrak should be out the door too.

Tate was his best receiver not Floyd. But Clausen did show a lot of toughness and a strong arm. I still would prefer they go McClain or a LT if one isn't gotten in FA.

No. If they pick at 9 they need an OT or a MLB. All of the QB's have warts that would make me shy away from any of them in the top 10. What the Bills should do is trade down and pick up an extra 2nd round pick. Then use one of the 2nd rounders to take a QB. The only way the Bills should not be taking an OT in the first two rounds is if they get McNeil from San Diego in FA. THAT would open up that first round pick.

We're all Bills fans and obviously too tied to them to turn our backs; even though we all might think about it a lot nowadays. Maybe the answer is for all of us to get a side piece team. Some team in the NFC that we can root for when it does not directly affect the Bills fortunes. Just for the sake of sanity. I've never been able to root for multiple teams in one professional sports league and never understood people who have multiple "favorite" teams. But I'm starting to get it. OBD gives us bad product continuously. We deserve better for our time and money.

I don't like this hire either if this is what we get, but if Nix feels he is the best man for the job it should not matter what we think. He's a football guy. Russ and Mr. Wilson are the ones who should be worrying.

He's a coach with a mediocre record all in all at every level. We all wanted a guy with experience and track record of SB success. If it wasn't one of the big 3 or Billick I'd rather go with a guy who is out to prove something over Gailey. A fresh face so to speak. At least he doesn't have a losing record like Jauron did, but that ain't saying much...

You would take Callahan over Frazier? Callahan who washed out in Oakland? Callahan who was terrible at Nebraska? You can offer up a better candidate than that.

Exactly. I wouldn't be surprised if Frazier told them "thanks anyway."

This organization has not been to the playoffs in ten years; let many of their best players walk away because they don't want to pay them the going rate; have a meddlesome owner... You don't think Mularkey put the word out? Or Gregg Williams? The Bills suffer from a reality problem and a perception problem. The ten years out of the playoffs cements both.

Nothing is going on tomorrow except a change in the date.

LOLOL. LISTENING. Spelling is fundamental too, right?? LOL

Dude, you don't think the 3-4 requires exceptional athletes? This is the NFL. If a team does not have elite players they don't win. Does not matter what system they happen to run. And why is Frazier more like Jauron to you? Because he's not spitting at the mouth on the sidelines? LoL. Come on now. Two different people.

Man, I'm sure you have watched some Vikings games this season. They run a version of the cover 2 yes. The players they utilize to run it are BIG. The DT's and LB's are bigger than what the Bills use. Just because it is the same scheme does not mean the personnel utilitzed will be the same. The Vikings players are quick like the Tampa Bay scheme calls for. They are also bigger than the players used by Indianapolis. Besides its not the scheme its the players. Get better players the scheme will look better. Period. If the Bill ran a 3-4 with their current personnel you would hate that scheme too. The coaching search isn't the Bills issue. March and April will tell the tale of the Bills 2010 season no matter who the coach is. Frazier is well respected in the league for a reason. So is Fewell. Better players make coaches and their systems look good.

People only like him because they have heard of him for years as a player/coach. He wouldn't be bad, but he's far from the sure thing everyone makes him out to be. He's not a demonstratively better candidate than Frazier or anyone else. In fact, Frazier is probably more qualified. He's been a coordinator for years to good effect.

How does Frazier suck? Don't just say that give us reasons outside of he's like Jauron because he isn't demonstrative.

Passing was the Steelers approach this season.

I'm glad you finally listed your reasons. 1. Nix said he prefers HC experience. He did not specify at what level. Frazier was a head man at a small college. 2. It's not the Tampa 2. It's the players running it. The Vikings D utilizes BIG linemen in the middle and Big LB's. 3. The Vikings D is a very good unit. The Ravens 2000 defense was one of the best in history. That doesn't happen every year or every five years or ten. You cannot say because Marvin Lewis coached a great defense and in your opinion isn't Lombardi (how many HC's are in that class?) that Frazier won't be good. This is an illogical argument. 4. You wasted time typing that? Are you still in nursery school?? 5. I agree he should be interviewed, but that's no bearing on Frazier's qualifications. 6. Who's to say Frazier does not have a great offensive philosophy and connects to coaches who can implement it? If the Bills were as impressed with him as has been reported he would have had to address these two factors. 7. Yes, if he's the best candidate. 8. True. But Cowher was never a guarantee. Why do you want a coach who doesn't have the balls to take the job? If Frazier is the best candidate and he WANTS the challenge you can't beat that. And there is nothing that says Frazier will be the guy. It's only 10 days in.

Then come up with them or be quiet. You sound irrational. You mean to tell us that Harbaugh is MORE qualified to be the Bills HC than Frazier? You already lost credibility. Everyone wanted a HC with previous HC experience and a track record of success. That doesn't appear to be an option unless they bring in Billick. If we go the coordinator route then Frazier is as good a candidate as any other if not more so.

The Bills should not touch a QB at number 9. They need a player who can contribute immediately. I'm not convinced about any of the QB prospects at number 9. I'd rather get a QB in Rd. 2. At number 9 I say OT or LB. And if both are on the board I would be hard pressed to choose. McClain looks like a Patrick Willis type guy. I think this decision will come down to what they do in FA. If they can get an OT in FA they are free to get a McClain. If they don't then they will need to take OT.
