  1. Guess I havent seen alot of Lynch...he really doesnt jump out at me as something "special". I need to see more of him, but I think we could get someone later in the draft that could be just as good as Lynch.

     

    Willis on the other hand seems to be one of those once in a lifetime kinda players, he just stands out to me as something special. I think this guy is going to be a freak in the NFL...mark my words

  2. I'm sick of Briggs trade proposals(and usually bad ones at that). Where has it been stated that Chicago is actively shopping him. All that was said, is that Briggs is unhappy that they tagged him. Whoop de friggin do! He's not the first player to be UNFAIRLY slapped with the tag and he won't be the last.

     

    PS Note to all these geniuses. If you don't like being tagged, complain to your union leadership who keep agreeing to it as part of a new CBA. :devil::lol:

     

     

    I am so sorry to have ruined your day. Im not worthy to be posting on the same board as you, someone who has never had a bad idea in his life. What was I thinking????

     

    Some day I hope to be as perfect as you!!!!

     

    :rolleyes:

  3. Yesterday I read that the Bears are looking to move into the top of the first round. With the possible trade of Willis (assuming a second round) to Baltimore, would you be interested in giving up our #12 for Lance Briggs?

     

    I wouldnt mind seeing a trade that included Spikes and our first for the Beard third and Briggs...is this possible?

     

    I just feel that Briggs has a better chance of succeeding that some unknown college rookie (ie LB Willis). He has experience and would be able to fill in for the loss of London Fletchers experience. We would then have our LB and could focus the remaining picks (2 second round, 2 third rounds) on our remaining areas of need (DB, DT, LB, RB).

     

    The remaining offseason would look like this:

     

    Sign Dillon and Brown to short term contracts

    Trade Spikes and #12 pick to Bears for Briggs and their third round pick

     

    Draft:

    Second Round: Best available DB

    Second Round (McGahee): Best available DT

    Third Round: Best available LB or RB

    Third Round (Spikes): Best available RB or LB

    Fourth Round: Best available OG

    Sixth Round: Best available

    Seventh Round: Best available

  4. Dolphins | Trade agreement reached for Welker

    Mon, 5 Mar 2007 14:05:53 -0800

     

    Len Pasquarelli, of ESPN.com, reports the New England Patriots have agreed to a trade with the Miami Dolphins for restricted free agent WR Wes Welker. The Patriots have already agreed to contract terms with the receiver, but rather then go through the motions required with restricted free agents, the team will instead acquire his rights from the Dolphins and then proceed to sign him. It is still unclear as to what the Dolphins will receive in the deal.

     

    Chris Brown had this to say:

    BELICHICK IS OFF HIS ROCKER: My mouth is hanging agape at the Patriots offer sheet for Wes Welker. Seven years and $38 million??!!!! If I'm the Dolphins I place a personal call to Belichick and thank him for his second round pick as compensation. 38 million for Welker??!! Holy crow!

     

    I like Welker and all. He's a nice complementary player, but you don't hitch your wagon to him for $38 million!

  6. NFL Network is reporting that Adalius Thomas is close to signing with the Patriots, just wondering if there was any chance of the Bills being able to afford him. I only ask becuase I heard that the Pats are known for not breaking the bank on free agents, so the fact that they are close to signing him, I would guess its not a huge blockbuster deal like many thought he would get, or atleast very cap friendly the first couple of years.

     

    What do you think?

  7. Just wondering what kind of contracts these guys are looking at. Sporting News suggest that these guys might be what the Bills need to upgrade:

     

    Eric Steinbach G Cincinnati

    Kris Dielman G San Diego's

     

    Michael Myers DT Broncos

    Alfonso Boone DT Bears

     

    Cato June LB Colts

    Adalius Thomas LB Ravens

     

    Nick Harper CB Colts

     

    Just wondering what the possibilities of us getting any of the above players. I would love it if the Bills signed Steinbach, Myers, June, and Harper (not likely to get all four, especially with cash to cap). I think we could then fill the other guard spot, RB, and WR through the draft.

  8. I know this is a bit off topic...but I just came across a advertisement saying that the "The Buffalo Bills Electric Company" will be signing autographs on February 25 at ENV Collectables, Carousel Center, Syracuse NY.

     

    Scheduled to attend are: Joe Ferguson, Reggie McKenzie, Joe DeLamielleure, Mike Montler, Dave Foley, Tony Greene, and Seymour (not sure what his first name is).

  9. If we still have Willis next year the Jets are dead and The Pats are falling apart. The only problem I have is that the Pats have 2 1st round draft picks and Lawrence Maroney.

    I agree that with the 2 1st round picks and Maroney the Pats are far from dead. I think with a few key additions, they will be in the think of things again (although I hate saying that).

  10. A very close friend of mine, who is big fan of the Bills, is deployed here in Iraq with me. Anyway, he got a call today that his pregnant wife is having complications...and it appears she is having a miscarriage. She is in the hospital now, ready to go into surgery to remove the baby...and save her life. This is there second unsuccessful attempt to have a child.

     

    He is preparing to get a plane out of Iraq to be with his wife. I am not a very religious person...but Travis needs our prayers...if you would...please say a prayer for him and his wife.

     

    Thank you,

    Glen
