Off topic...but Beerball has one sweeeeeet avatar...

What he should have added: "Having said that, if we can bring in a free agent or two that will upgrade us, we will certainly do that. We should never be satisfied with what we have and should always be looking to add leadership and players with intangibles to improve our football team. We hope this will prove true with players like Dwan Edwards and Andra Davis and any other FAs we pursue."

You have to think practicing against a true 3 -4 has to improve how we do against those teams....

He QB'd the O - line that helped him get there...how does Hangartner's resume compare?

I guess the center of the O-line that produced a 2000 yard rusher would be a downgrade to Hangartner. My bad.

But if he is an upgrade, even for a year or two, do you not take him and draft a suitable replacement? That my friend, is called upgrading your roster.

Stop gap is the operative word. I am sick of opposing NTs being in our backfield to take the hand-off. Let him stop that for a year or two.

The question nobody has answered: Is she?

So do you

If you just suck generally, like I am learning your posts generally do, then I suppose you suck too. So yeah, I am saying you suck.

Well duh...that's fabulous insight.

Exactly. If we had taken Clausen they would have given us an A grade. I read a lot of their Clausen pre-draft stuff and they had an obvious man-crush on him.

One of the things I didn't mention was the fact we will be running the ball a ton.....that keeps the offense on the field...our defense off...and wears down their defense. I think we made moves to stop the run, which we desperately needed. Our secondary is stellar......too bad Jauron didn't concentrate on the first two lines of defense....

I have to believe that our new strength and conditioning philosophy will translate into more aggressiveness, fewer injuries and, hopefully, a team that pounds people for 60 minutes. Yes we were 6 - 10, but we lost 6 games by a total of 20 points. Sure, we had bad bounces, but I think the collective "softness" when compared to other teams caused players to make crucial mistakes at crucial times. That opening night loss to the Pats set the tone for the whole season, IMO. Look, I am not parading around the "we're going to the playoffs" banner, but I do think we took major steps with our draft, filled some key positions and added the most dynamic offensive player available. We need a new QB.....I know that. We need to add a pro-level LT, I know that too. However, we simply had too many holes to fill for any reasonable person to believe we could fill them all in one draft. I am willing to enter the season with optimism and believe this team will have a new attitude. Say what you will about Gailey, but he took a horrible Chiefs offense under Thigpen and averaged over 23 PPG once they went to the spread. I have suffered for a decade with all of you, but at least now I have some hope. I could never say that under Dick "I don't know what emotion is" Jauron.

Just because we drafted someone Charles Davis didn't do his homework on, doesn't mean we reached.

What he said.

Can't agree with C. Biscuit enough.....they were a playoff team if Fisher wasn't so damn stubborn......

Reminds me of a not-so-poor-man's Chris Johnson.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. This is my first draft here and I am amazed how many unemployed "GMs" are Bills' fans. Be pissed off, which is your right, but I would rather hear from someone with legitimate insight rather than someone who thinks, "I have never heard of the UCF Knights, so anyone who played there must suck." Finishing third in your online fantasy pool does not mean you are knowledgable in football. I know, my uncle won his pool and he annoyingly calls Chris Johnson "Chad", for f*** sakes.

What he said, with the added comment that these kids have had productive CAREERS.

Great quote. Look.....these guys have watched tons of tape on all these prospects. I am not going to listen to the Kipers or McShays of the world. I am going to measure this draft mid-season. The fact is, Bruce Campbell is an athletic freak. Another fact: Bruce Campbell is a HORRIBLE tackle. Yes, I have watched tape.

I'm not reading too much into anything. Watch and see. I will be the first to praise your knowledge if it breaks down the way you think.

"This pick is great value for the ____________"

Read Lombardi's post again...it states we will have a new QB by the end of round 1, not that we will select a QB in round 1. To me, this may be an indicator of a trade for Jason Campbell or something in that vein.

Why are people on this board so concerned with how much a contract is worth? It's not like we write the cheques....
