I find your posts very objective, especially regarding the O-Line. Can I quote you on the highlight portion above? LOL So many on this board think, believe, hope (it's hard to tell which), once again that the O-line will be fine, when it hasn't been "fine" in about a decade. I really can't believe we are going to start basic rookie QB with this line, and especially not having an LT of any quality.

No, it simply cannot be explained.

Thanks. BTW, Price wasn't drafted by Buffalo. Started out in Jacksonville looks like.

Kelly's Tavern On The Proj'. I mean Kelly's avern On The Green! My cousin used to own it.

I agree, there has been an effort. 2001 ==== 3 95 Jonas Jennings T Georgia 5 144 Marques Sullivan T Illinois 2002 ==== 1 4 Mike Williams T Texas 7 215 Mike Pucillo G Auburn 2003 ==== 5 151 Ben Sobieski G Iowa 2004 ==== 7 207 Dylan McFarland T Montana

I thought about that while writing the post. Good point. O-line still more in number, also has had a lot more turnover of free agent O-linemen over the past four - five years.

We should have been spending more picks sooner, like about 4 - 5 years ago. But, oh well. Seems funny that the weekest unit on the team has the most free agents.

I recall sensing that Bledsoe was going to have "one of those days", which we were all too familiar with, which he did, and basically helped take the steam out of the team. It was almost like guys on the team were thinking, great, here we go again. From the First Half ============== 2-10-BUF25 (9:59) D.Bledsoe pass incomplete to L.Evans (W.Williams). Thrown behind receiver, nearly intercepted at BUF 30, right side. 3-10-BUF25 (9:55) (Shotgun) D.Bledsoe sacked at BUF 18 for -7 yards (T.Polamalu). 1-10-BUF21 (3:22) D.Bledsoe pass intended for R.Neufeld INTERCEPTED by L.Foote at BUF 25. L.Foote to BUF 24 for 1 yard (R.Tucker). 1-20-BUF44 (11:19) (Shotgun) D.Bledsoe pass incomplete to L.Evans (C.Hope). Receiver overthrown, nearly intercepted at PIT 40, over middle. Pressure on QB: C.Hoke. 2-20-BUF44 (11:11) (No Huddle) D.Bledsoe pass incomplete to Jo.Reed (R.Stuvaints). Receiver and coverage at 50, left side. 3-20-BUF44 (11:07) (Shotgun) D.Bledsoe pass incomplete to L.Evans. Underthrown, receiver at PIT 41, left side.

No, I mean yes, I mean no, I mean... uhhh, wait: people respond to my comments? They don't really let me have crayons that much any more, besides they all taste the same. So, GMs aren't judged on win-loss records alooone. I'm learning. Mr. SoCal takes care of me at the hospital, and sometimes lets me use the computer during lunch. I've got to go now. I have to take my medications.

How long is this "haul" going to take and where is it going to end up?

You are never going to get anywhere with a lot of these guys. Don't bring up winnning and losing, or record. It's not about that apparently. GMs aren't judged on win-loss record. At least not ours. TD is great, the record doesn't matter because the Bills sell a lot of T-shirts and jackets, Oh yeah, you left out going into the season with an unknown at LT.

Evans is list at 5' 10" and Parrish at 5' 9" 170 lbs.

Nice post. I understand where you are coming from. First thing, I travel from SoCal to see a game once a year, but obviously I have a deep interest and do follow them year round. TD has done a good job overall with the team: ++ Attendance + Cap Hell (we may start to see issues around the corner, remains t/b seen) ++ Marketing ++ Generating interest ? Rebuilding (record does not indicate much progress over J.B and Wade years) -+ Coachs (Even like the MM hire) (Hosed the GW pick and allowed GW to hire a bunch of clowns: Grey excluded) ? Scouting ? The Draft + Trades (really liked the P.P. move) - Record (not yet, and this year probably 8-8 with new QB) John Bulter (R.I.P.), was definitely the benefactor of B. Polian's scouting department and also spent team into cap hell, which he also seemed top have done in San Diego. I think the scouting department pre-TD was considered one of the best in the league by accounts that I recall. Would like to see a playoff appearance and a winner some time soon. How's that?

I understand what TD is trying to accomplish, what has worked and what hasn't worked. It is not an exact science. Fine. Quit feeding everyone the "butts in the seats" nonsense. I grew up in Buffalo, there is not a whole lot to do on Sundays in the winter, unless you ski. Take a guess what attendance would be if this team were in LA or Orange County. Right. And why would you care what attendance was, or how many shirts they sell. I don't give a damn. I show up one time a year to see a game and expect a good, consistent product on the field. Maybe a playoff appearance once in a while. If this is all about NFL style "Money Ball", which it may be, then I'll just spend more time in the water. The below teams have all had at least one playoff appearance since 2000. ================================== Oakland Denver Tennessee Baltimore Miami Indy Pittsburg New England New York Cleveland Kansas City San Diego Guess who's not on the list. =================================== Cinci Bungles Houston Texans (expansion team) Jacksonville Buffalo Given enough time, even the Jerry Jones' of the world figure it out every now and then.

Welcome to year six in the rebuilding process!

I don't think European countries play softball.

Verily, be warned stranger: Appear not to side against the minions of Beelze-Hoe, lest you and your kind be smitten!!! Or, have some virtual person type nasty things about you.

http://pbskids.org/lions/words/sheep.html Safe for anyone.

LOL. OK! You win!! Must be the salt water coming in through my ears.

Funny, I was wondering how much time you've spent in Indiana.

And you do? I know enough not to draft a 5 ' 8" receiver.

Ahhhh!!!

Not me.

Cowart's draft choices you mean?
