If the Bills went CB in the first round, you'd see the first NFL stadium in history be destroyed by its fanbase. The fanbase of course, would march in an organized procession from Hammer's Lot at a medium pace. We're not savages.

Lynch looked thinner in last night's game, not the big slow and bulky RB he was when in Buffalo. I hate seeing Pete Carroll gain legitimacy as a coach. I was hoping for a Panthers-esque corkscrew into the tarmac from 35,000 feet performance out of Seattle this year.

I disagree. I think the front seven gets the epic overhaul this year. First round, third round picks, one top FA signing, at minimum. While I like Bowers, I get he's for a 4-3 scheme. How about Dareus? A new DC would be great too.

+1.

Looks good but the weak point *is* the network. TNT has a tendency to vanilla wafer its shows like the USA Network does to Burn Notice.

I would trade up for Da'Quan Bowers. The man is virtually unstoppable.

The only ways I see Ngata escaping Baltimore is if he makes it really ugly where Baltimore, seeing no other option, trades him when his value is at it's highest. I doubt that will happen.

I'd take John Fox or Marvin Lewis as DC in a heartbeat. I think both will be looking for work in a week. That being said, they will probably do the broadcasting thing and wait for another head coaching job to percolate in a few years. I don't see either of those guys as a Dom Capers type of personality that went in and out of head coaching and defensive coordinator gigs year to year.

There was a Blane in Predator.

The snow isn't as bad as expected in PA. It's a light snow. The game could have been played. I find the "in the name of public safety" disingenuous. If the NFL was concerned about *public safety*, they'd ban booze in the stadiums.

Has DraftTek finished a mock draft that assumes Luck stays at Stanford?

For me, it was a choice between Wrotto and Merriman for #5. Wilson and Florence were my top priorities.

I feel unclean having read this thread.

Play the 4-3. Less holes to fill on the roster, and it plays to the strengths we already have. Going 3-4 would require a major investment in the LB position, probably so much so, you couldn't get it all done in one year of the draft and FA unless you sacrificed upgrading other positions.

If for some insane reason Baltimore lets Haloti Ngata out of their grasp, you get him. At any cost. I agree on David Harris and Marcedes Lewis for FA pickups.

Sure it does. Like any good tinfoil hat, you make it yourself. You don't "buy" it.

Given that the NFL is one huge ratings conspiracy, I see the Bills beating the Patriots to keep the Jets relevant. Until that is, we knock them out of the playoffs. /tinfoil hat

Denver is such a disaster.

It will be the Bills that keep the Jets out of the playoffs. I will relish this day.

BB: Even if you read the novels, you'd still find the show surprising and interesting. The show throws in new wrinkles not seen in the books, (i.e Jenner and the CDC) and vice versa. For example, the show is "showing" more about the world as it fell. The comic doesn't spend a lot of time on the topic. You might enjoy a good book called World War Z, a tale about how countries world wide take on a zombie outbreak. It tackles some of the topics like how the military was overrun at first, how governments fell, etc.

I'm glad that 10 of Rubicon's 13 fans are Bills fans. I enjoyed that show. Started off slow, but got its legs. I put it into the bin with Jericho as shows the companies never gave a chance. As for the Walking Dead, my apologies for not indicating the spoilers. There's so much in the novels that can make for awesome television, and I think the first six episodes are just a tease of where this show can go.

Don't shoot the messenger. That's the plot device in the novel, and so far, the tv show is following the plot fairly close. Death, by any means, is the trigger. It's just that the bites are 100% lethal, and quick to enter the bloodstream. The quote from Issue #41 "...the rule is: WHATEVER it is that causes the zombies, is something everyone already has. If you stub your toe, get an infection and die ... you turn into a zombie. UNLESS your brain is damaged. If someone shoots you in the head and you die ...you're dead. A zombie bite kills you because of infection, or blood loss ... not because of the zombie "virus."" You can survive a zombie bite if you amputate the part that is bitten. Dale gets bitten, and has his leg amputated by Rick later on.

Spiller has a bright future in Buffalo, especially after the team finally invests in, and builds depth for the offensive line in 2011. Draft or free agency, do not care. Both. Spiller had a talented offensive line at Clemson, and when the line was injured, his play suffered. That's not an excuse, but as one poster already stated, Jackson knows how to run with a weak line. Spiller has not yet.

Carrington is only going to get better. I am happy to see he's getting playing time.

If Fitzpatrick throws for 30+ touchdowns this season, why not? It's all conversation. There's a long long time until draft day.
