  1. If I was starting a franchise today, and we only had 1 year to win the super bowl, here is the order of QBs that would be taken off the board in my opinion: Brady Rodgers Luck Roethlisberger Brees Wilson Newton Rivers Dalton Ryan Flacco Stafford Eli Manning Carr Tyrod Taylor After what I've seen this year, he's in the top half of the league for sure. Honorable mention to Bradford, A. Smith, Cousins (you like that?), Bortles, and maybe Cutler. I wouldn't touch Palmer, Romo, or P. Manning because of age/injury. Someone mentioned Fitz in an earlier post, that's just straight ignorance. I love playing against Tannehill, he just can't read a defense and get rid of the ball. I think TT (right now) is better than some of the young guns; Winston, Mariota and Bridgewater. Anyone else worth mentioning?
  2. You're right. Where's Losman and Edwards at? I want to see them one more time. They deserve one more shot with the Bills. 16 year playoff drought isn't enough, bring in EJ/Trent/Losman in for a 3 way competition next year. Let the best man win!!!! GOD I LOVE THESE BILLS AND THE FANS!! SO SMART SO EDUCATED SO ARTICULATE!!! HAHA just kidding guys, these 3 guys stink, lets give Matt Simms the job next year, you know lets just see what he can do? Why not try Matt Simms? Why not try Matt Haselback next year? Lets bring in Hasselback for a workout he could potentially be our franchise QB the next 5 years. Also what ever happened to Matt Leinart? He deserves one more shot, lets bring in Leinart to compete.
  3. The Bills biggest positional needs heading into the off season in order of importance: Inside LB, Offensive Tackle, Safety, DE/OLB, backup/developmental QB I don't billieve any of the positions above should be our first round draft pick, let me explain why. Insdie Linebacker - Preston Brown and Nigel Bradham have struggled this year. After an above average year for both of them in 2014, they have seemed to regress. Bradham has been awful and most likely won't be a Bill next year. Both ILBs have struggled stopping the run this year with Bradham being the worst. So what happend? The simple answer is that Bradham was NEVER a good run stopper. Last year that was Brandon Spikes' job. You will notice this year, Preston Brown is playing really tight to the line of scrimmage, like 2 yards tight. Brown plays well in space, he doesn't play well in congestion. When he's forced to play like a prototypical MLB (like Spikes), he struggles. BUT, when he plays next to a run stopping LB, Brown looks excellent. With Spikes gone, Bradham is forced to be a 3 down backer, which he is not. The only way to get the elite play out of he Preston Brown is to pair him with a run stuffing MLB. Brown cannot play in tight congested space, he doesn't read the play fast enough, and then can't react. My prediction is the Bills do not go ILB in the first round of the 2016 NFL draft. I think they will let Bradham walk and sign a free agent ILB. Run stuffing LBs are not terribly hard to find, elite pass covering LBs and hybrids are less common. The Bills will go ILB in the 2nd round, who will compete with the free agent as well as Lawson and Powell. Offensive Tackle - The Bills' offensive line (as a whole) this year has been above average. The left side in particular is elite. John Miller has struggled this year, but I've seen flashes that give me confidence he will do better in the near future. I predict the Bills will select an OT in the 3rd round of the 2016 NFL draft. They will also acquire another talent through free agency to compete. SOMEONE will step up at OT next year between Henderson, Mills, 3rd round pick, free agent. I don't see the line's level of play changing a whole lot from this year, they are an above average unit and thats all we need. Safety In order for this post to make sense, I'm going to have to make an assumption that Aaron Williams will be back on the field next year. A-Will has emerged as a leader on defense, I don't see him hanging it up after this year. Corey Graham has been a god send for the Bills these past 2 seasons. He's leading the team in tackles this year and continues to play at a high level. Rambo has emerged as a real threat on defense. I'm super happy with Rambo as a backup or a starter if Williams or Graham go down next year. I predict the Bills will select a Safety in the 4th round of the 2016 NFL draft. They will most likely bring in a free agent to compete with Rambo, A-Will, Graham and the 4th round pick. We're set here. DE/OLB - This gets a little tricky, and everyone has their own opinion on Mario Williams. For the sake of wrapping up this post, I'm not going to get into cap numbers and all that. Here is what I know: The Bills WILL NOT let Mario walk unless we have a suitable replacement. IMO, Mario will stay next year. I think we restructure the contract and he stays. IF we do let him walk, you better believe its because we bring in another high profile free agent. There's a couple elite options on the market this year, we'll see what happens. I predict we select a DE/OLB in the 5th round of the 2016 NFL draft to compete. Developmental QB - The Bills might also select a DT at this stage in the draft, but lets just go with QB for now. Tyrod has been excellent this year, but as Doug Whaley said, we're still looking for competition and a future starter if Tyrod doesn't become the guy. We'll select a QB in the 6th round and DT in the 7th round. So what are we doing for the first round pick??!!! I BILLIEVE in my heart that the Bills need to go WIDE RECEIVER in the first round of the 2016 NFL draft. Here's why: Speed up Tyrod Taylor's development. Tyrod has more than a few weapons on offense this year and he's done a good job spreading it around. He MUST get rid of the ball quicker next year. Lets surround him with even more offensive talent that can get an open release off the line of scrimmage for quicker throws. I don't know about everyone else, but I'm sick of watching a ****ty offense.. I WANT AN ELITE ONE!! That's right, I want to watch an elite offense as a Buffalo Bills fan. I want it, and I deserve it. I wasn't old enough to watch the K-Gun do its thing. Give me a goddamn elite offense, and if we can secure one more elite WR threat, I think we get there. Take some pressure off the run game. Its no secret, the Bills run game is what keeps us in every contest. We can't run the ball, we don't win the game, pretty simple. Do we want to bet on the fact that we'll have a run game in the top 5 of the league again next year? Nah, lets show the league that we can toss it around with the best of them. You ever wondered what the offense would look like if Percy Harvin was healthy and playing at 100% this year? This thought has blood rushing to my loins. Since Percy can't stay healthy, he will be gone next year. There are a few elite prospects in the draft that can replace him, or be even better. Who are the prospects? I see 3 guys that can make an immediate impact in the NFL. Michael Thomas (Ohio State), Laquon Treadwell (Ole Miss) and Corey Coleman (Baylor). These guys can fly up and down the field. I dare you to double sammy.. Tyrod will hit the deep ball on the other side. Coleman in particular is a vertical playmaker. With Tyrod getting more comfortable and better next year, Coleman could make this offense elite. GO BILLS!!!!
  4. Wasn't Mario Williams sick a couple weeks ago? Whats his deal?
  5. No way, like someone else said, if you're not in the top 5 then it doesn't really matter. I'd rather win out and attract a couple free agents that know we're a player or two away from the promise land.
  6. Since I'm new here I'll introduce myself. Die hard Bills fan from NYC. Although I didn't get to see many of the glory years in the 90's I like to watch the old games and they still excite me. My favorite player ever is Jim Kelly. The earliest season I can remember watching was the 1996 season. I vividly remember the playoff game against Jacksonville where Kelly got knocked out of the game and how upset I was. I really feel like the Bills are going to turn it around soon. The new ownership has me excited and I think DW is a hell of a GM. GO BILLS!
  7. The entire purpose of the original post was asking where to find an Eagles message board, was it not? I'm a fellow Bills fan trying to help and I enjoy this board a ton, just haven't decided to post until today.
  8. reddit.com/r/eagles Also, you guys should check out reddit.com/r/buffalobills I like the up vote system reddit utilizes. It allows me to read the best comments on top and weed out the crap.
