I think Prioleau saying no to a restructure and asking for his release actually saved Wire his roster spot.

All the best thoughts, Mike. Hope you're back up to speed very soon.

3rd,4th,5th,6th WR's - Why ? Keep the fullback in the lineup and just concentrate on the running game. Smart idea with a rookie QB. I don't want other WR's catching the ball outside of Evans and Moulds.

They're a big sponser of Star Wars conventions.

Pileups on the 95 ? Don't remind me of the Beltway. I hated that.

Actually, DeMulling sounded like a Villy clone. Anderson is far bigger and moves the pile, from everything I'm reading.

http://www.profootballweekly.com/PFW/Comme...dholm021705.htm Nice blurb on Anderson , prior to the start of Free Agency. Look under Offensive Line.

A little more detail, Dave. What was it about ? A documentary of regular work week, leading up to a game ?

Damn. I set the table for that one. Too easy.

Settle down everyone. Quit baiting.

Sounds good. Anderson is 345 lbs. and is a very good run blocker. Had a falling out with Billick in Baltimore and he signed Vincent from the Steelers to replace him. Hope it works out.

Give it up. TD is drafting Nugent in round 2 and a deep snapper with 2 broken hands in round 3.

That view is spot on . It's great watching our 6 o'clock news. The politicians are getting absolutely blasted. They try to blame others and wind up getting crushed by the reporters, who will hear none of it. They are in complete shock that the people actually are rising up against them and not swallowing the crap anymore. It's the best thing that ever happened. All the local politicians have been reduced to crap throwing monkeys on camera. Their political careers are all going up in smoke. Bye bye incumbents. The gravy train is making it's last stop.

This thread has run it's course.

Alcohol is always a great way to make sound decisions with other peoples lives. Just ask Congress.

Turley has a major disc problem with his back and may never play again. I also read that he's dropped 50 lbs. in weight.

I just read a UFA list and recognize some names. Why hasn't TD signed all of them ?

Quite right, old bean.

That was my thinking, Dan. Maybe a 2nd day pick this year and a conditional pick in 2006. Still a bargain.

From everything I'm reading, the OG and Center position has good depth this year. Why reach ?

I'm certainly not going to defend TD blindly. He's made his mistakes. But the whole premise of this thread is that 2-3 UFA name players on the OL market were the only available answers to our problems. Now that DeMulling is gone, we are settling for B or C Level players who don't have name recognition. I'm not willing to accept that as the final or "right" answer. There seems to be an overwhelming presumption that TD is some madman control freak who leaves the rest of the front office and coaching staff out of personnel decisions, due to his "mis-management" of the cap. On the one hand, people are questioning why we don't have more room available to sign UFA's. Then these same people state we should have offered Jennings,Williams and other teams FA's, huge " market value ' contracts ? Sorry but you can't play both ends of the issue. You either throw $$ at everyone recklessly and mortgage the immediate future or work within your guidelines, offering long term $$ to a certain core of players ( as dictated by the cap ). The Bills had direct meetings with Womack and DeMulling. The presumption is that both were offered contracts and other teams outbid the Bills. I have yet to see any evidence of this, other than press speculation. TD - " Our process on the free agent visits is very detailed. It is coordinated by John Guy and our player personnel staff. Included in the visit is a thorough physical exam and a visit with the coaches, particularly the coordinators and coach Mularkey. Our position coach for the free agent that is visiting will watch film with him and they will explain what we are trying to do with regard to our styles of play and our system. The contractual aspect with the free agents visits is really not something that we get into in any detail with the player. This is something that we would approach the agent with after the visit has been completed. " So in closing, I'm not ready to declare the Free Agency period a disaster ( after 2 weeks ) by any stretch. I could see the limited cap and know a few other choices remain for the OL. The Draft could produce a starter in round 2 but I'll wait until Sept. to press the panic button. That's 6 months away and lots can happen between now and then. Lack of patience can produce some very biased, bitter views with little room for debate.

That was my first thought. With that footwork, size and being so freakishly strong, I can see why he may be more valuable as a LT prospect. He can still catch the ball down by the goal line. An interesting project, to say the least.

Keep close to the bomb shelter as countless people will now reply how he has proven nothing outside of being a frail lepper, due to his broken leg. He is completely undeserving of getting a chance to prove himself. The Coaches were fooled into thinking he had any level of talent. Your optimistic, cautious approach has no place in the valley of extremes, known as TSW.

Didn't you just start a thread about watching " LOST " on TV ??

A lot you know. I always have a double cappuccino with just a touch of nutmeg. Everyone in the club knows that.
