Best case is that the suspension gets reduced to two games from 3. I think that's aprox 50-50.....

In every thread I keep reading about how Nelson and Bowen are going to be big factors this year (according to some po sters). I certainly would love to see that, but we're talking about 4th and 5th round rookies here people. Hellooooo? Why would every team in the league pass on Nelson 3 times if he's such a miracle man? Let's layer in a little reality here, people: Fine, or Shouman, will be playing, and so will Ellison, with his 3 years of starters experience vs Bowens never having seen an NFL field. Just my opinion, but not too many 4th or 5th round rookies start.....

Yes, Ellison WAS out of position all year. His natural position, and where he did well as a rookie, was WILL. And they may LIST Mitchell as Sam, but he plays Weak Side ALL the time, away from the TE. Remember, Ellison was a semi-revelation as a rookie, starting at WILL. He was pretty good over there as a rook, remember?

Really? You think we drafted a 5th round unknown, who didn't play a down all year last year, as our SAM "for years to come"? I think you might temper ypur enthusiasm until he gets on the field. No harm intended, but this kid has proven nothing yet.

Lori: Yea, Brian's my brother. He's the Bona guy, I was U.B., many moons ago. Been in Tampa for 20+years. Love your great posts, btw.....

Tim: You would know my brother, Brian Biggane, PB Post. He's back on the DOLFAGS beat. Things be looking scary in the news biz, I'm afraid. Too bad, 'cuz I'm a newspaper junky. Thanks for what you do for all of us (mostly annonymous) Bills Fans....Barry

Great, cogent post. Dead on.

Hey Pal: That Greedy Curmudgeon" has provided us w/ our soul and a heightened quality of life in WNY and beyond for 50 years. He easily could have walked, often, for more $. I say "Thank you, Ralph".

Thank you. Confusing, but very helpful.

....So that leaves Mitchell assumedly where he is, and a 220 lb (Pisa) way overmatched on the Strong side. I'm not opposed, but nobody seems to realize that Mitch and Pisa play the same position....Am I missing something? ....

Hey Genius: 12 and 11 is a WINNING record. Pack up the rest of your negative drivel pls. Thanks.

Great post: A bunch of questions w/ no answers. Good stuff!

Hey gang, let's see what develops. It's only May....

Edwards "can't get us into the end zone"? Well, I'll have to say true enough mostly so far. But, out of aprox 18 starts, about 3 or 4 have been in blizzard or 50 mph wind games. He's had no TE, and no center, and poor coaching. And he STILL has a winning record, w/ a bad defense. I think the kid is going to be smokin' good. Just give him a chance. My worry is still at LOLB and (ugh) Kelsay. Keep the faith, kids, you've gotta Billieve!........

Totally unfounded speculation; not worthy of the enthusiasm that this will generate. I'd like to believe this, but it has zero cred. Sorry dude.
