Julius Peppers makes almost every tackle look like a turnstile. I'm happy with Peters' progress so far.

Yeah, I saw that. I went through last night and changed the top 100. After that, I just made a quick scan to make sure there was nothing horrible in there, like Kelly Holcomb at about 125.

I will be out of town that weekend. It will auto draft my players according to my pre-rankings won't it?

I just joined, but unfortunately I won't be in town for the draft.

As of now, the only thing I reading from this, is Holcomb is not going to be the starter on opening day. But, I do think its very possible that Nall overtakes KH with a good game on Saturday, if he hasn't already.

Was he passed out with an empty beer in hand against the wall?

If he's ready, I'd give him a series. Just to get him back up to game speed for a few plays.

In that case, you have to question the validity of any and all posts on this site and any other site for that matter. After all, 90% of all posts are opinions and who is to say just whose opinions are valid and whose are not.

What the hell is the fascination with this guy, just because he's a 280 lb fat tub of &*%^? His hand offs look like a high school quarterback, on passes just seems to fling the ball out there almost not caring where it goes. I just don't get why everyone likes this guy.

Sorry, but JP needs to get all the reps he possibly can. I'd keep him in the entire 1st half, then come in with Nall in the 2nd and play a bit into the 4th quarter. Then give Holcomb another shot the last 7-10 minutes of the game.

Not that it really matters in a preseason game, but its being reported that Carson Palmer is not playing Friday night. Personally, I was hoping to see him at least one series to see if our defense can show any improvement against a solid first string offense. Link

I'm watching the game now and I really can't believe Morgan is even still on this team. Between letting guys run right by him and a critical false start penalty on 3rd and 3 deep in carolina territory, on ensuing 3rd and 8, Losman was sacked (and guess who's guy blew right past him).

I wonder if he could be fined for that. You're right, maybe before he opened his mouth, he should go back and look at the Superbowl tapes before talking trash about the refs.

I think you're pretty low in your projections for JP, considering last year in 8 games (not even full games) he had 1340 yards thats an average of 167 yds/game. Your estimates above would be only 147 yds/game. As bad as our QB play was last year, they still managed 2700 yards between the two of them. Your pretty much looking at a disaster of a year for JP and absolutely no improvement. I would at least suspect minimal improvement. If he finishes with only 2300 yards, I would officially say he isn't going to make it on this team and its time to cut ties with him and its time to look at Brady Quinn and another 3 years of development for him. To be honest, I'm looking for about 3000 yards from JP and 1/1 TD to int ratio. I wouldn't be ecstatic, but I'd be pleased that he is getting better and I think that would bode well for next year.

Its a little early to be calling this draft a great success. Although, things do seem to be looking good this early. Lets see where this draft class stands at the end of this year and again at the end of 2007. We should get a pretty good idea by then. They always say it takes about three years to properly judge a draft class. Lets give them at least one, first.

Cleveland Browns! Then the Superbowl against the Detroit Lions!!! Hey, if the Bills can make it to the AFC Championship game, why not?

Does it really matter who starts Saturday? Right now Holcomb is penciled in as starter (at least he has been getting the first repetitions in camp), so I really don't think anything will change from now until the game. Holcomb will start this week and unless something drastic takes place in the next 10 days, Losman will probably start game 2. A final decision on a starter for the season will probably follow that game.

To be honest with you, I think the reports on both QBs have been quite good. There is no QB that is going to complete everything in Training Camp or never make mistakes. To me it seems that they are both keeping mistakes to a minimum. It sounds like the only really bad day of practice was Wednesday. Another poster said something on how the Miami QBs were doing terrible in practice and we just aren't hearing that about the Bills' QB's. I prefer Losman start because there is so much more upside. We already know what we are going to get in Holcomb and to be honest its nothing great.

I think that's what fans and media said might be a good plan, but Jauron has stated there are no plans of that taking place in the near future.

By all accounts Buffalo has no chance to make the playoffs this year, so why not start Losman ALL season and see how he handles it? Why would you favor Holcomb this year?

In one of the articles I read from TBD this morning, it said Ralph was at some Tennis tournament or something.

Rivers has a more finished product around him, so I expect him to have a better season. Having LT in the backfield doesn't hurt either.

Sounds logical, but unfortunately, Whitner and his agent aren't looking at where he should have gone in the draft, but where he was selected. In reality, that is how they should be looking at it.

Holcomb's Arm, is that you? You are worried that JP hasn't seperated himself from Holcomb thus far in training camp, but aren't you the slightest worried that Holcomb, the 10-12 year vet, has not come close to outshining a still young JP Losman? Holcomb has been in this league for quite awhile now, he is not going to all of a sudden get better than what we are currently seeing. We know what we have in Holcomb, and its not really that good to count on as a starter. At least with JP there is a possible upside, if this year is dedicated to him being the starter. If Losman sucks, then I'm all for dumping him after the season finishes, but I want to see him go through the entire year.

I actually liked the fact that JP was hanging out with his Center. I think thats a relationship that really needs building. Not the Running Back/Quarterback relationship.
