All I care is whether he can throw long.....Fitz couldn't....we need that threat. I watch Nassib in that bowl game in Yankee stadium, and he didn't show me that on that day.

Recalling the Arizona game last year, where Kolb was the QB for Ariz, he got hurt, and never got back in the groove the rest of the season. but, he stood in there against the Bills, and he impressed me with his heart willingness to lead in tough circumstances. (talentless, almost anyhow, Cards) The Bills could do worse.

I was hopeful on Brooks, but he was a fourth rounder for a reason. Although he has ball skills, he is slow for a CB. That young receiver at Indy left him in the dust, Brooks can't run with the burners. thats why he was not a starter at LSU. McKelvin however, did not get burned in the four games he played as a starter last year prior to getting hurt. McKelvin will still do fine, but we need another CB, and I am not a believer in Brooks there. Actually, he might be a safety candidate as well.

The bills will need to add some bodies to the OL, now. Recall, however, Zebrie Sanders is still there......although he was drafted as a tackle. they thought enough of him to keep him injured.

Bills will now sign Reinhart if they can. He performed well in his starts these last couple of years, and, although he is not as flexible as Levetre in terms of moving to tackle, he is pretty good at guard. He also will not cost $8 mil a year. He will get 2-3 mil, I think though.

He is getting almost all of that anyhow.

McKelvin does not have this history.......you are thinking of Travis Henry. This comment really inappriopriate.

You can't fix the terrible location in terms of getting in and out. A stadium should NEVER be built on the waterfront, not enough roads to get the paying fans there. Orchard Park at least has roads radiating out in 360 degrees.

OK, Nix has a commitment by contract to Fitz for 2013, not much to be save. And Fitz, not being an A or even a B rated quarterback....more like a C+/B- QB, might as well keep him and let him compete. Now, TJ may not even be a C QB, but is certainlyl no better than Fitz, so whatever happens in 2013, unless a rookie does it, we will not be seeing A play from the QB. I think Chan was saying they could win with Fitz....playing at say a B level. Now, Levetre, that is a different situation. He is good, but not head and shoulders over other available talent. Rheinhart (also unsigned) could be a capable starter, not as flexible as Levetre, but pretty good none the less. Lets say Levetre is an B+ player, very durible (never been to the pro bowl, no A) and can play multiple positions. Rheinhart can play either guard, and not much dropoff when he was in there the past couple of seasons as the line improved. So, I think that the megabuck deal for Levetre will not happen, cheaper good (not great) options exist. And, if Levetre gets the big deal, Rheinhart will go elsewhere where he might get to start.

Landry Jones....4 year starter at OK....productive, steady. Probabily available at Rnd 3 or later. We could use two rookies, I don't think TJ has it. To many stops already.

We may end up with Reinhart as the starting left guard, worse things could happen.

Despite his troubles at Oakland, I wish the Bills had McClain.

I watched the replay on ESPN. Despite not being a Brady fan, I didn't find the leg movement anything different than a straight arm. this was a straight leg, and potentially kepts Ed Reed from hitting him "by accident" Lot of smoke here, no fire.

Pro bowl, ho hmmm.....

I like #12, roofs for entrance. I had to hold my new iphone out in the rain this year so I could get "wanded" before entering the game. I was told at that time I should be greatful they ask me to do this, as the wand would damage my iphone. Who knew! Wanding damages electronic devices.....hmmmm....sounds like they need to work on that one.

I am also sckeptical. I learned how to put a team of doers together in the business world. I understand he brought in a lot a guys he knew, because he had a connection with them, especially from a communication point of view. BUT, he has made two mistakes in my view. 1) No holdovers from the old staff. HIS team will lack a lot in terms of knowing the relevant background of the players. He should have retained a couple of the old staff based on merit. For example, Bruce Dehaven would have made sense to me, even Pete Metzlars. But, he brought in a special teams coach from Detroit with subpar results. Reminds me of the Wade Phillips/ronnie Jones fiasco of a decade ago. 2) I learned through verious transitions and assembling teams, a difference of opionion is a good thing, I worry all his gumba's on this staff will not push his thinking. Seriously thinking about not renewing my season ticket package, not sure this guy can get it done. HIs organizational moves have been weak in my view. Likely another three and out regime, don't know why I should pay to see that.

I would hope a few of last years coaches are retained. thinking DeHaven, Metzlars maybe. A little organizational memory is a good thing, despite the performance failures of the past. The emotional urge to get rid of them all is best surpressed. I felt the same way when Kugler left to the Steelers. Or, go get Boobby April for special teams, again.

If the Bills go back to the 3x4 I will be giving up my 4 season tickets. that would represent the height of incompetence...we just restructured the personnel to the 4x3. You might say the new guy gets to make his call on that, and he does. And, I get to make the call on the money for the season tickets.

Urlacher is a step or two slower these days. but, he has the big rep.

Actually, its plausible. So, I am hoping he gets healthy again. He is a beast when right.

No to Vick, a lowl character guy. I hear all the preaching about he paid his debt to society, and deserves a chance. Not from me. My four season tickets will be available if they do this. Won't pay to see a that guy play. Besides, I saw him in the Ralph with Atlanta, and was not impressed. We need to do better.

He can prepare as much as he wants, but he must stay within the hours perscribed by the NFL players union contract. So much for the preparation argument. Everybody gets the same amount of practice time. No more extra sessions etc. He can prepare as much as he wants, but he must stay within the hours perscribed by the NFL players union contract.

A challenge to anybody who relishes that kind of problem. A team that doesn't know how to win. That IS a skil, and is know to winners. We haven't seen that since the glory days.

Well, I did see the Cardinals in the Superbowl with Wisenhunt...so I guess not always mediocre! And, there are worse ideas than Haslet, but, admittedly, Jim was not the brightest bulb in the string when he was here.

Yes, but remembering the Jason Peters case, the Bills were very smart. Peters was locked up for three years.....but he decided that he wouldn't play for the paltry 3 mill/year he signed for, as he was an all pro. So, he held out, and forced the trade to Philly (hows that working out btw) Andhow, they had him, and he choose not to honor the contract. Lots of cases like this in football. I am thinking that moneyball won't work particularily well in the non contract compliance envieonment that is the current NFL.
