Two possible picks playing tonight
BuffaloRebound replied to DrDawkinstein's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Watching the game and I agree about Miller. He looks like a safety rushing the passer. I'd be surprised if his playing weight is 230 much less 240. He has good speed and can bend under OT's, but this guy reminds me way too much of Maybin for my liking. -
Luck will not declare for the draft. Breaking news...
BuffaloRebound replied to dayman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He will never get drafted higher than he would have this year. He might be drafted #1 next year, he might not. He will almost surely not make more money than he would have this year. Football is a sport where you are always 1 play away from serious injury. Your reasoning would make far more sense for a different sport. -
Bills top list of landing spots for Vince Young
BuffaloRebound replied to ALLEN1QB's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Probably closer to Michael Vick 2.0 than Jamarcus Russell 2.0. He's better than Brohm, and I'd love to see what Gailey could do with him. If he flakes out, cut him and you haven't lost much. Similar to a Merriman type signing. -

BuffaloRebound replied to dayman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Bradford 'could very well have been' is RIDICULOUSLY different than being told you will be the #1 pick by the team picking. I'm glad you applaud him. You also probably have zero concept of risk and reward. -

BuffaloRebound replied to dayman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'm sure getting his degree now instead a few years from now will really impress all the NFL GM's, the ones who will be paying him $60m. This decision is all risk and zero reward. Carolina already came out and said he will be the #1 pick. Manning played at a football factory. Luck goes to one of the best schools in the country where athletes take serious classes and are expected to attend and do the work. -

BuffaloRebound replied to dayman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Bradford wasn't the prospect that Luck was at the same time and also needed to fill out. Bradford was not a slam dunk top pick or even top 5 pick at the end of his sophomore year. Oklahoma also competes for a national title every year. I don't think Bradford mentioned staying for any reason other than football. Locker, like Luck, cited not wanting to leave the college atmosphere. Huge red flag. -

BuffaloRebound replied to dayman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This raises major questions about him just as it did with Locker last year. Probably moreso because it looks like he's losing his coach and Carolina came out and said they'd take him at #1. Gotta question his competitive nature. What's he got left to prove at the college level? -
Take a QB! Tons of Defensive talent 2-4
BuffaloRebound replied to 1B4IDie's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I agree with a lot of what you are saying. Fitz is almost the perfect QB to have when drafting a Qb at the top of the draft. He's smart, seems like a team guy, you don't have to throw the rookie out there immediately, and he provides a nice benchmark for a rookie to overcome to get on the field. Newton will be the guy Nix has to make the decision on at #3. -
Ok....let me ask this.....if Luck declares
BuffaloRebound replied to John from Riverside's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The way this franchise has drafted in the 1st round, I'd give up as many future 1st rounders as the League will allow in a trade. -
Official Game Thread: Bills at the Jets
BuffaloRebound replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
As bad as our Front 7 is, our CB's are horrible against the run. Can't remember a single time this year a CB has come up and made a stop. -
If Jets rest their starters, Brohm should start as well as guys like Maybin and McCargo. Who cares if Fitzpatrick carves up the Jets 2nd stringers? Can't take anything from it and you could lose a lot of draft slots.

Jets player/trainer cheapshot on punt
BuffaloRebound replied to ofiba's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
What a joke. I'm sure the the Strength and Conditioning thought that up all by himself. -
He's not big and plays stiff. The blitz yesterday where he was basically unblocked and ran right past Roethlisberger illustrated all his shortcomings. Couldn't slow down and change directions.
-
Evans is afraid to get hit. He is necessary to stretch the field, but the way he avoids contact is maddening. He is the anti Hines Ward.
-
Ideal scenario would be winning 2-3 games, be competitive in every game, still get the #1 pick, Merriman re-finds his form and likes it here, and Luck declares for the draft.
-
Good job by Bell completely whiffing on that block.
-
I used to wonder why we didn't blitz more. Not anymore.
-
Applaud your effort but not sure how you get around the $150m debt cap to purchase an NFL team. Your website mentions this, but that is a huge hurdle to overcome. Unsecured debt is probably a non-starter because why would Bills fans line some billionaire's pockets by giving him/her a below market loan.

Official Bills At Chiefs game thread
BuffaloRebound replied to Just Jack's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Not defending the play calling, but playing for a tie when you are 0-6 would make me more mad. Hope every game they play goes deep into over-time so some of these bums can earn their paychecks. -
Agreed. I assume he's not that far away from his degree as this is his 3rd year and scholarship football/basketball players usually take both summer sessions. You only have so many physically productive years to play football. He can always finish his degree over a couple summers and if he cares about football, his non-football professional career is 10+ years away regardless.

Bills fans should take Ryan Fitzpatrick seriously...
BuffaloRebound replied to 1billsfan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If you don't have a franchise QB, Fitz is a nice baseline QB to have. Doesn't fool you into thinking you don't need a franchise QB, but good enough to evaluate the rest of the offense. -
Agreed. If that's what it takes to get Luck to enter, do it. Harbaugh would be an upgrade over Gailey and you get the franchise QB. If you're Harbaugh, there's only so much winning you can do at Stanford with their academic standards and he's probably close to that ceiling. Plus he gets the chance to coach a franchise QB whom he knows. If Kelsay is getting $6m per year, money shouldn't be an issue.
-
Locker very well may have sub-par talent around him, but with a #1 overall pick especially if the Bills are picking it has to be as close to a sure thing as possible. I'll take the less risky Luck and if he doesn't come out, Dareus from Alabama looks like a sure-fire stud.
-
I was thinking about that quote by Gailey about Ellis as well. Some things just don't add up. Either there are locker room things going on we don't know about, Gailey is bi-polar, or someone is forcing Gailey to make these moves.
