  1. Thanks a bunch, Dean. Sounds a bit confusing, so I may be PMing you gameday lol
  2. I went back on after the game and I was immediately banned. Every time they posted something bad about Buffalo, or any of the aforementioned subjects, I just pasted the same response after every post that went something like this: "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA..... YOU JUST GOT BLOWNOUT. BLOWOUT. BLOWOUT" I dunno, something like that. Anyway, it must have annoyed the crap out of them, because one time I went to post it and found out I got banned. Screw them, I think its hilarious. First, the post all that crap on there, the next thing they know Bills fans from all over are signing up to show them up. Then we beat the hell out of them on the field, and they still can't get rid of us, so they had to ban. I love Bills fans.
  3. Does anyone know of a link to watch it online?
  4. You are just looking for the tools. There is no way that in any college offense, spread included, pro scouts know what is happening in the huddle, the play that was called vs what actually happened, and so on. You are looking to see tools: How is Percy's route running? What kind of routes is he running/can he run effectively? If he's only running a limited number of routes (which is the problem with a lot of big-time college receivers), how does he run them in your personal workouts? The key to getting open in the NFL and running good routes is making every route look the same to the DB. Does he have telling signs in his breaks or cuts? How does he get off the line of scrimmage when there's press coverage? Things of that nature. Is he a coachable kid? What is his attitude. This is where the personal interviews and talking with his college coaches and family comes into play. Is he a team guy? If he runs poor routes, is it because he wasn't asked to do so? Can he learn/is he willing to listen? How are his hands? This is hard to determine based on the different type of QB the WR has throwing to him. Where is he catching the balls? Are they right in his hands every time, or does he have to constantly reach out/up/down/behind? What is the arm of the QB like? Is he catching balls from a weak armed QB or a strong one? There are so many things that matter regardless of the style of offense he is in. These are off the top of my head, I don't pretend to be a pro scout, but regardless of what system they run, you are looking for these types of things. Obviously it help to tailor fit players in similar schemes to your NFL style offense, but its not the end-all.
  5. Robert Gallery might not be a Pro Bowl, have him for 12 years at LT kind of guy, but he's a starting lineman in this league. Mike Williams can't even make an NFL roster. There's a HUGE difference.
  6. I agree. They need to run the ball as much as possible. Those receivers and QB aren't going to get anything on the Colts D in the passing game. I think with some coaching, and another few years of experience, Jackson MIGHT be a good QB. But with the kind of team they have, they don't have that luxury if they want to win.
  7. Good post. Lets hope that they can win one or two of those games (not against us) and take down some of our wild card competition.
  8. Remember that divisions play other divisions, so the Jets, Pats and Dolphins play the same garbage teams that we do, for the most part.
  9. I agree. I think when drafting a QB at the top of round one, everybody knows its a 50/50 shot and the player could be great, or could be playing Arena football in 3 years. But an offensive lineman? How many times does THAT happen? That's more of a shock than Alex Smith. Smith came out of Utah, ran the spread offense, and if his first receiver wasn't open he ran. He also almost never took snaps from under center, he was in the shotgun 80% of the time. But how hard is it for a lineman to block people and go from college to pro, especially at one of the top colleges and programs in the country where he faced the best competition. Williams is a bigger disappointment, IMO.
  10. Man, AP and Chester Taylor should run ALL over them this week.
  11. There's nothing like taking two players out of thousands and trying to make it seem like a majority. Nice one!
  12. The positions most needed will be (in no order) TE, OLB and OC. Who we pick up in free agency and who is available on the board at the time will determine which position we select. Since I don't know 1.) what free agents we'll sign, and 2.) who is available at #32, I'm not going to say which is the most important. They are all equal to me.
  13. It doesn't matter if the Sabres put out the greatest looking jersey of all time, the fans are still going to complain about it. I know we're all still bitter about the slug, but let's admit it, those are good.
  14. I think people are confused. This isn't about arguing who is the best lineman of all time, the thread says who is the best, "YOU'VE ever seen?" That said, for me, I'd say Tony Boselli.
  15. Before the season, I'd definitely say TE was the most important to fill, even with Crowell gone. But, Royal is starting to be more involved in the offense and Trent really likes him. If Royal keeps this up, I think we should either go OC or OLB as the first need. If not, Ellison is more of a solid player than Royal, and I'd take a TE first. Top 5 needs are: OLB TE OC DT OG
  16. He's definitely got some brass ones, being the only "expert" with us in the top 10 and ahead of the Pats and Jets.
  17. That dude is crazy. First, he wants to retire before the season. Then Jeff Fisher has to force him on the field Sunday after Young doesn't want to go back out there. Then, Young's friends call Fisher, worried about his mental health. And now Fisher is calling the cops on him and finding guns in his glovebox.
  18. The only thing the Bills will be choking on is David Garrard, after his former teammate Stroud devours him on Sunday.
  19. Teams have been doing this for a while. See: New York Giants.
