Every time we try we get someone worse.

We look like we might suck terribly this year. Sign his ass--he can help us. He won't bully again, even Richie isn't that stupid.

I love Kiko but he was a liability in the run last year and part of the reason we got run on. He was swallowed up quite frequently when we played teams with decent lineman.

Falling: Urbik - see above EJ - see the games CJ - Looks like last year...not necessarily that CJ is bad but it is just clear that Fred is still better (somehow). Yet to break one and looks below average when there isn't huge holes. Great catching the ball in the flat and getting 10 out of what most players would get 3 out of though. We need to use him as full time slasher IMO he should catch more than half his touches. Gilmore - He's still the best guy we have but he's nothing to write home about--at least not to date. He's just a guy who looks like he's going to get absolutely burned periodically for his entire career. Still mostly good..but he plays it close to the vest and has continued to give up big plays this preseason (last week, 2 this week). Thad Lewis - IMO he's better the Tuel, and equal to EJ. Not saying much, but it is a rise for him. All three are terrible. Searcy - Not impressed. IMO the Antonio Brown TD last week was equally on him as it was the guys underneath. Bad angle and absolutely roasted. That said, Brown is fantastic. Rising TJ - see above. Still might not make the team though. Looked good returning last night, imo. One cut then north-south w/ the speed...he's capable of returning punts all year if we keep him. Hogan - I saw someone knock him as falling above, b/c Woods is getting his full reps now. He's not going to start, but IMO he's def. on track to make the team. I thought for sure he would be cut this year. Still may be cut, but in true Hogan style he's making it tough. Easley - Depends on special teams to make the team, and he blocked a punt. Good job Easley. **Note: I have not seen the Carolina game yet, or watched any replays (where I usually catch defensive stuff).**

He's a big, aggressive, solid CB that is absolutely good enough to start on this team. He's not a top corner in the league though, far from it. That said, we'll have to complain about something other than Gilmore given the state of the Bills. If we lose a game or two b/c of Gilmore...there really is nothing we can do or say about it. There aren't 2 other CBs on the team who are any better.

Sammy acting hurt b/c of that? He needs to toughen up.

Frank the Tank up the middle. Nice.

I'm not convinced Hogan is better than TJ.

Robey with the block!

Nassib to the hall

"at this point" ... it isn't relevant ... but the point where it is could be sooner than you think.

Now for Nassib

Tuel > EJ That much is clear already.

put the third team out there!

..as it always was to anyone with decent standards.

He blew that play up but that's it so far.

Welp...EJ looking terrible as predicted. They need to leave his ass out there with the first team for a while.

Anyone have a good link explaining, or care to just explain, what interested fans should watch tonight? What are the story lines, etc? I know Henderson and 7-11 have a lot to gain or lose. What other players will be out there who demand close attention?

I like him but he's always looked good in practice. He's never been able to play in the game in a way that keeps him off the bench.

Basic accuracy is a big deal, impossible to play QB with true confidence without it. Work ethic and composure is not a problem for the vast majority of QBs...the fact that EJ is good there means nothing to me. Anyway, as I said above...the "obvious pick" was us to grab him the third...not for Wilson to have gone in the first.

As in, it was obvious our team needed him in the 3rd when he was there. It was not mystery the kid was real good and an interesting pick...that is the pick you make in the 3rd as the Bills in that draft. That is what I mean by obvious. i'm no genius, but I still remember screaming at the tv in that moment.

Haha, if EJ is the 16th best quarterback this team will not win 2 playoff games. We're better than we have been, but don't be ridiculous.

Hate to be that guy, but it's all Wilson. He was an obvious pick, not a lucky pick. When you know you have no QB (which we did at the time), and you know you haven't had a qb in forever, and you know you are building a team from crap, you take Wilson when he's there for you. He was no mystery, we took TJ Graham instead. But moving off that, I have to say I would rather have Mike Vick start the season for us than EJ. I would take Vick and Freeman/Sanchez as backup and go from there. Be aggressive when a shot opens for QB. That's just me though. Assuming EJ is not the guy (which I do even without the topic prompting me to). EDIT: Oh ya, I would much rather have Johnny Football as well.

There is an outside shot TJ is McKelvin's offensive equivalent...so we aught to keep him unless he's terrible in camp.
