  1. I heard of him. Git 'er done Buddy. He will improve our ST coverage if nothing else.
  2. Get a clue. Cordaro Howard, an undrafted rookie, is backing up both G and center ... and he never played center. We cannot go into the regular season with this situation. We need someone that can play the damm game as a backup. If Wood gets hurt we are screwed with Howard at RG and no backup center. We will pick up someone. Maybe not Jean-Gilles, but someone that can cover both positions. This has got to keep Chan up at night. Look at the depth chart.
  3. No kudos because is really a sign of a very weak team. I try to be positve and I love the Bills. I have been following them since I can remember (1964-65). This team has no Pro Bowl players other than the punter. There is very little depth outside of the secondary and RB. Our roster has only three back up offensive lineman on it and two are rookies (a 5th rounder and an UDFA). This is really not great news unless you agree that Nix is blowing this team up and starting over.
  4. Time for some reality. If there is inside joking going on I am not following it. Butler was a tackle in college who projected as a guard in the NFL. He was a good guard. He was an ok right tackle. That is it. Nothing special. Walker was a better RT than Butler. The only reason he even played tackle on the Bills is because our inept Front Office and coaching staff let Peters go and then cut Walker after trying to turn Walker into a LT on a no huddle offense. Geesh!!
  5. Literally. We have no one else.
  6. Expect to see some players added to OL and TE. There will be changes.
  7. OL= Bell - Levitre - Hangartner - Wood - Green Backups = Howard, Meredith, and Wang. Would like to see us pick up a veteran G/C. Cannot believe they will stay with only 8 on the OL and two TE's.
  8. This list looks more realistic.
  9. Take a chill pill. True there is only so much you can do. I just don't think they did enough to address the OL. Not even close. Are you telling me that they could not bring in any other veteran options on the OL? Other than Wood and Levitre and maybe Hangartner are you really satisfied with the players on the OL? Satisfied with Cordaro Howard as your number one backup gaurd option? Drinking the Kool Aid can be hazzardous to you and your QB's health.
  10. Nor surprised. Brown to the PS.
  11. All the pundits celebrated this pick on draft day. The Wild Cat with Pat White ... ohh boy!!! That Bill Parcells! Yoo Whoo!!!
  12. I think your point on have the done enough to improve the line is very valid. I am very concerned about the starting tackles and the depth at all OL positions. I was very pleased with the adjustment. Then I realized how basic that is. We have had bad coaching for so long.
  13. Failed attempt at humor ... I hope.
  14. i thought we were talking about Foschi?
  15. Amusing? I was bored to death. Nothing about football to back up his statements about Trent Edwards. That article was lousy.
  16. The corect rotation is no rotation. Play the guy that is hot. Game plan for situations that match their strenghts to the defenses weaknesses. Mix it up and keep them guessing. Make them change to match us. Never be predictable in a set rotation. I want to see a two tailback set in the games. Gailey hinted at this after the first pre-season game. Start with two tailbacks in the backfield and then one splits out wide like a flanker did back in the 60s. This could pull the defense out of the 8 in a box formation and back them off to enable a run (trap or a draw). Or we could pass to a mismatch with a LB covering Spiller or Jackson. We could actually force them to play nickel by using two running backs. Now, do this again but with three wideouts and who covers Parish? Which safety helps with Evans deep? Force them into 6 DBs and Spiller bcomes deadly if he can get one block to spring him past the line of scrimmage. Lots of possibilities all predicated on being able to block.
  17. I think Roosevelt makes the Practice Squad. No shame in that. No other team will take. Every team has a guy like Roosevelt in camp, I guy that looks good and "almost makes it". He looked good but we need to see what Jackson and Johnson can do. They are veterans and have 3 years on him. With Easley out, Nelson was clearly the best looking rookie WR. He will make the squad and be what Hardy was supposed to be.
  18. Agreed. If Lynch gets cut and we lose him for nothing I will really question the FO. In a real game against real defenses: Lynch = 3X Bell Suprise cuts are McCargo and Hardy and I do not know why anyone would actually be surprised. They have not produced and they cannot stay healthy.
  19. And what is your analysis on the Dolphins game that we won last year? The first key for Buffalo is stop the "simply pressured the QB " part of it. We have to pass enough to keep them honest and off the line. Then we hit them with Spiller.
  20. I love it. What sage gambling advice to give the public. I am going to the home opener and I really think we are going to win. Bills 27 - Phins 20. If we can block I think Edwards can execute the offense.
  21. C.J. Ah You plays or somebody? Can't remember who? Maybe the Rams? As we are aware, poor teams tend to have lots of other teams cuts.
  22. Very true although Wang, Cordaro, and Sean Allen actually do look like Practice Squad material. Remember that Chambers got cut to start the season last year? Right now he is the #4 tackle and maybe the #3 gaurd. That scares the daylights out of me. So .... what exactly did we do to improve this line rom last year? Losing Butler (solid RG and decent RT) and adding Cornell Green does not look like net positive so far.
