A 3rd round pick in 2006. 6-2, 215. Had 29 catches last year-21 for 1st downs. Maybe not much different than we have on the roster. His $445k base salary is attractive though. Any takers with Reed out?

Maybe a TE like Fine finally gets involved in the offense on a more regular basis. Seems like when a TE gets hot in the 1st quarter you can count on him getting almost no looks the rest of the game no matter the player.

Random thoughts on various positions
DanInSouthBuffalo replied to VIPP's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Actually there were a LOT in this past draft. But, as in any draft we'll see how many with that "p' word, potential, turn out. The guy from the Jets, Dustin Keller, looks pretty good. He might become a Jason Witten or Chris Cooley type of TE. -
I think Parrish on quick slants could be deadly to opposing teams. Do you think Steve Johnson is ready to contribute in some way?

Anyone against Buffalo calling Simeon Rice?
DanInSouthBuffalo replied to marauderswr80's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Sure, I'll call him. What buffet is he at? -
I agree on the strong need for a real TE in the draft. The free agents they brought in were a joke and Schouman and Fine have upside but they are both smaller, more of the H-Back style. I do not agree on spending a #1 pick on one though as the track record is likely worse than finding WR's that make an impact. The Bills would have had many choices in the 2nd round into the early third last year. This year the first two are working out well though so maybe that proves me wrong. Here's this years results so far with their draft positions: Dustin Keller TE PURDUE 1st 30(30) New York 6-84-2TD John Carlson TE NOTRE DAME 2nd 7(38) Seattle 16-190-1TD Fred Davis TE USC 2nd 17(48) Washington 1 catch-6 yards Martellus Bennett TE TEXAS A&M 2nd 30(61) Dallas 3-57 Brad Cottam TE TENNESSEE 3rd 13(76) Kansas City NO CATCHES Craig Stevens TE CALIFORNIA 3rd 22(85) Tennessee NO CATCHES Jermichael Finley TE TEXAS 3rd 28(91) Green Bay NO CATCHES Martin Rucker TE MISSOURI 4th 12(111) Cleveland NO CATCHES Jacob Tamme TE KENTUCKY 4th 28(127) Indianapolis 1 catch-6 yards Derek Fine TE KANSAS 4th 33(132) Buffalo NO CATCHES Gary Barnidge TE LOUISVILLE 5th 6(141) Carolina NO CATCHES Kellen Davis TE MICHIGAN STATE 5th 23(158) Chicago NO CATCHES

ESPN reporting McCargo fails physical too.
DanInSouthBuffalo replied to lets_go_bills's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Well, do you think they will just cut him? It could happen--obviously they had some sort of roster move in mind with him gone. -
Tony Gonzalez didn't want to play in Buffalo
DanInSouthBuffalo replied to JuanGuzman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Well, I don't have any sympathy for him. He wanted out of KC to play for a team with a shot--Buffalo is in the mix, KC is not. -
I look at it this way, a couple of our 1st round picks COULD HAVE been 2nd round picks (Losman, McCargo). Sure you hear rumors that someone would have picked them early if we had not moved up, but who cares, draft the best guy available. I hate the latter half of the first round. I'd pick in the second or third round twice instead of having a pick lower than #15 in the first round. Teams start to get nutty and start reaching then.

TJ Houshmandzadeh trade rumors
DanInSouthBuffalo replied to Captain Quint's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Why are they trying to trade T.J.? Keep him and lose Ocho Cinco in any way possible. It's addition by subtraction. -
"I hired the wrong guy"
DanInSouthBuffalo replied to WellDressed's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I believe it should read: "I hired the wrong guy five times in the last six years" (I think that is the stat on coaches in Oakland). IMHO, that says it all. You don't have to bring anything else up. -
ESPN: Corey McIntyre in, Darian Barnes out at FB
DanInSouthBuffalo replied to Lori's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Barnes wasn't signed for his offensive abilities--he only caught 16 passes and ran the ball five times in six years before joining the Bills. -
Here's my conspiracy theory on that. If the position becomes open at SU does Al Davis fire Lane Kiffin allowing him to take the job? The agreement being that the rest of his Raiders contract would be voided. Al is like Ralph. He's trying to get Kiffin to quit so he doesn't have to pay him.

I got a question for all you suns a bitches
DanInSouthBuffalo replied to Lv-Bills's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
My college bar of residence 1988-1991. They still have great wings and cheese fries. I need to get down there soon. -
And that's sweet for me because my best friend from high school is a Raiders fan. He lives out on the West Coast and kept telling me what a stiff Walker was when we got him. Looks like a change of scenery where he doesn't have to block for a seven step drop has done him some good.

J.P. Losman Needs To Be Traded
DanInSouthBuffalo replied to NunoFreak's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He's better than quite a few of the backups in this league. I'd like to see Losman play for a team who could use his abilities to roll-out and throw on the run. -
Seattle loses two more WR's
DanInSouthBuffalo replied to DanInSouthBuffalo's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I guess Holmgren was turned down by the GM on the first attempt, but the second time is a charm. They signed him last night. -
Seattle loses two more WR's
DanInSouthBuffalo replied to DanInSouthBuffalo's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I just found out that Roydell has an ankle issue and is pursuing a grievance against the Titans. -
Seattle loses two more WR's
DanInSouthBuffalo replied to DanInSouthBuffalo's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Billy McMullen. Parker isn't listed on their roster or depth chart. He wasn't mentioned in the latest story either. Hmmm. -
Seattle loses two more WR's
DanInSouthBuffalo replied to DanInSouthBuffalo's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Ya know, I was just going to mention that. I heard him on the radio this summer campaigning to be signed by someone. He said he has plenty of money so that wouldn't be an issue. -
Logan Payne has been declared out for the season and Seneca Wallace could be out a month.Their only healthy WR's are Courtney Taylor, recently signed Billy McMullen and a guy named Michael Bumpus who they just signed off the practice squad. Anyone wanna play WR for them? What about Roydell Williams the ex-Titan? 50 catches and 4TD's last season and he's jobless.

A search reveals the name "Kat Deluna". -

DanInSouthBuffalo replied to Lv-Bills's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
What the F was that?! Who the F was that?! I was in the other room and I thought my TV was dying. That was another Rosanne Barr-like moment. I was hoping a shot would ring out at the end. -
I think tempo is the QB & offenses friend. Even Losman looked okay in the pre-season in the new offense. I think at times they were taking too long last year deciding what play to call. When the players know where they have to be the rest seems easy.
