Which Bills Player Would You Want To Bring To A
colin replied to D' men's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
if we are including past bills i think pat williams with his combo of being big and nasty would f up some fools. tko would put out some licks too. sam adams would be my second bill, i think it is possible he could kill a man just lunging and belly splashing him -
Vince Young MAY be there at Buffalo's selection
colin replied to BillsFanForever19's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
vince being there might be some sweet trade bait -
simms was a late climber and really didn't have what haynesworth or henderson had in terms of experience or ability. i'd love for brick to fall to us, but i don't know that he will. the best thing about this draft is that at our pick and in the second round there will be a DL/OL who will start for us in quick order and really improve our lines. i also like watson in the 2nd, and max jean-gilles in the 3rd as a massive guard

Who should start at DE for this team next year?
colin replied to D' men's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
schoble is a good DE. i have a hunch that abraham might come to us as mentioned above. i hope to get a massive DT, bentley, and perhaps abraham in FA this year. saving some cap on moulds and mike williams will help us towards that -
Well, there might be a sliver of hope...
colin replied to sven233's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
getting a guy as good as brick looks to be does a lot for a team like ours. 1. we improve our LT, LG (gandy moves over). 2. we are able to ditch m williams and trey and sign a guy like bently and with very little cap change (a bit more but not so much) we have brick gandy bently villarial/preston peters as our line, that is tackle to tackle better and the best line our team has had since kelly. 3. if we can we can cut and re sign williams with leverage that a stud tackle gives us. 4. while we are not a good team, we have some skill players with a ton of upside, locking in a solid line now (along with a new OC whol can get it done) gives us a chance to really develop an O i think ngata, ferguson, or williams will be there at 8 and any of them will help us -
nice, but i don't think it is possible for us to let williams go without getting some OL in FA. also, why no love for crowel? let's draft a safety/OG instead of the OLB.

Takeo Spikes ..... will he ever come back?
colin replied to truth on hold's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
tko is coming back and he migh just kick your ass when he does -
VCoach - Bills hire Steve Fairchild as OC
colin replied to ACor58's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
ok first of all the above is right. he is 7th in running, so YES, he runs more than other OCs. 2nd WELL...since we're all creaming ourselves over stats here...here is Fairchild's offensive rankings with the Rams since he became their O-Coordinator. 2003: 3rd in the NFL in Points, 7th in Yards 2004: 19th in the NFL in Points, 6th in Yards 2005: 11th in the NFL in Points, 6th in Yards those are good numbers!! they had a bit of trouble scoring in 04, but fell just out of the top 10 in 05, and lit it up in 03. they are VERY good in yards EVERY year. DJ is a conservative HC, his knock was boring 3 yard out offenses. here is a smart guy, who has been a position coach for this team, who has experience with an exciting unpredictable offensive football team. yin and yang anyone? a more spread out O will let JP run and throw the deep ball more, the things he does well. we have speed at WR and an RB who runs well from a single back set. did some of you goons want a guy who runs more than he passes? there are never more than 1 or 2 teams that do that a year. -
you have a point, but i think the top 3 picks are pretty certain. the jets MIGHT take brick, but they might prefer williams to replace abraham or one of the top RBs sf and the raiders almost certainly won't shell out more on a LT with they guys they just got, and GB could use any of the good LBs in the draft, so there is a good chance that brick might be there. either way, i expect one of ngata brick williams to be there, any one of them would make a huge step towards improving one of our lines, and there will be a solid DT and OT in the second and third rounds. this is a good year for the big fellas
-
do the jets dislike robertson (the DT they got #4 overall) enough to bring in Ngata? i suppose they might let abraham go and get another big body. that would instantly up their run D and let vilma put up pro bowl numbers. i'd LOVE that draft. saw a bunch of tape of ferguson, paticularly in the senior bowl. he is INSANE with the feet, i'd bet he'd get bigger over a couple seasons and if we put gandy at RG next to him we'd still be able to run behind him. d'brick gand bently chris/preston mike williams peters @ te should put us in the top 5 in running the ball. we could even just ditch williams or sign him cheaper and move him to guard and have a potential kansas city quality line. that would be great
-
RUNYON might be the dirtiest player in the nfl. he makes tons of dumb mistakes and no self control penalties. bently > hutch (younger more powerful, 2 position ability). i like the backus bently idea. if we don't draft an LT, those 2 moves will upgrade LT, LG, C, and our right side is decent. it will give us leeway to ditch williams or keep him and move peters back to TE and REALLY have a mauling line.
-
and look at the teams the raiders played afc west alone LT KC (holmes/johnson) denver (they run on most everybody in the regular season) you add a ted washington and a healthy edwards + a solid rook Dline (williams or ngata) and our Dline is back to where it was in 04. i really think this offseason we can add a bunch of big men who can play

that's quite a strawman you've decided to argue against, tell me how it turns out. the piont i made was explaining how children in poor/low income house holds don't hear as many words in a day vs children in upper income houses. the reason for this is that there are greater numbers of less intelligent people in poor households than in wealthier households. this isn't to say that no one in a poor household is smart, but smarter people are more likely to be more successful and have a highe income than less intelligent people. thus over time smart poor people will leave the poor households and be counted amounst wealthier (than poor if not wealthy as an absolute measure) households. dull and stupid people have a tendency to drift towards poverty rather than wealth so you will have more dull and stupid people in poor households. any measure of exposure to stimulation for children in households with more dumb people will show less than in upper income houses. instead of intentionaly misunderstanding my posts or calling me elitist can anyone refute the substance of what i am saying?

Is Buffalo's Ford stamping plant closing?
colin replied to Tcali's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
this the real issue. ford and gm are getting their asses kicked because they pay too damn much for wages and benefits. gm is in a 10 billion dollar hole a year vs Toyota (who produce most of their vehicles sold into north america in north america) on labour and health care costs alone. they are both (ford and gm) big dumb companies locked into horrible contracts with bad workforces. auto workers could easily be replaced by highschool dropouts for $12 an hour if there were no union contracts. don't feel bad for auto workers not being able to make as much as they are making now, consider them lucky for having made that much in the first place. -
out of all of the questions we have i think the one that needs to be answered the most is left tackle. the only guy coming out of the draft who is good enough to step up day one (as accurately as pre draft analysis can predict) is d'brick, and top LT prospects have struggled more often than not (Davis in zona, gallary, ogden was a guard first, mckinny, mike williams even the he is a RT). this makes me think we would be just as well off getting a guy with upside in the second round in this deep draft and taking the best defensive player on the board in round 1. so who plays left tackle? my hope is that peters can switch, we keep williams cheaper at RT, and get bently at C. any number of possibilities would work out very well at guard with that line up. it is easier to turn a D around (see what ours did in 03, and how it fell in 05), so spikes coming back and an impact lineman in the draft could be enough to get us back into the top 10, but i'm hoping all of our young talent on the O side of the ball will come into their own with a little help from the line. what do you guys think we should do at LT? there are guys out there or on our roster to solve any of the other single OL positions IMO

didn't kobe get found not guilty of raping that girl? didn't she have sex with a bunch of other guys shortly after banging kobe?

this sucks. guys who we took in as a head coach are getting put back into coordinator roles and doing (or will do) great. i really think ralph's cheap stingyness is going to catch up if all the top coaches get sucked into just a few places.
-
to me it all comes down to his coordinators. if he brings in some exciting smart guys to run his O and D then i won't really dislike him here. i wanted haz because i thought he had some innovative teams and would bring a whole lot of fire and passion. jauron is the opposite of that, so in my mind he really needs some go getters as coordinators frankly at this point i think the statements by mort and all of them that getting rid of TD would be a step back look pretty true. it looks like we are taking a step back just like we did when we ditched drew, the problem is we are still waiting to take our step forward.

Buffalo Bills: Just not a top organization

what is so wrong with them selling their tickets? wouldn't you?

tons of kids to life science majors just to get a B S C. university is for the most part a way to differentiate yourself from people who don't have degrees.

Does anyone feel they know what we got in JP?
colin replied to The_Real's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
he has a higher level of qb talent (wheels and deep ball arm, ability to scramble, ability to throw on the run, has thrown some very difficult passes with high accuracy) than many of the young qbs playing well today. his problem is that he is green and gets dejected when he plays poorly. he needs to learn to bounce back from an INT and come out gunning. the thing is, our whole team was like that. MM and his loser crew moped and gave in at the first signs of a challange. i remember after the denver game they asked him when the game turned, he said after that tipped pass for the TD. THAT WAS THE BRONCOS FIRST TD!! so, jp might be a guy who gets beat too easy, but i think at this point we can assume that was a team thing and he can be re tooled -
