He is just one player but he is also one of the Bills best players. This may be an overhaul year but that doesn't mean we don't want to make a run for the playoffs. The 49'ers went 13-3 and were a field goal out of the super bowl in their first year with Jim Harbaugh even though they were considered one of the worst teams in the league prior to the season starting. I see no reason the Bills can't attempt something similar to that.

And don't forget Byrd isn't in either.

It'll be the same thing but switch EJ for Kolb

Our backup defense looked a lot better last week.

Kolb looks about the same as EJ did last week

The Bills will start the QB that they think gives them the best chance at winning this season it's as simple as that.

Thank you. Everyone seems to be dismissing Kolb even though there's a very decent chance he'll be starting the season for the Bills. EJ played about as I expected from a highly drafted rookie QB and no more or less. I see no reason to declare EJ the starter after that first preseason game and as someone who's expecting playoffs from the Bills this season, I expect a higher level of play at QB than that game whether it comes from a more comfortable EJ or Kolb or Tuel.

Meeks doing his best George Wilson impression.

Good thing we signed Kevin Kolb.

A lot of the guys in front of him on that list haven't even put up a single 1000 yard season. I would personally swap Mike Wallace at 16 with Stevie for a more accurate list.

Not down on him, I just think that DHB is a better wide receiver. I'd like to give Graham another two years to see how he plays out but right now I'd rather have DHB.

C'mon, how can you say you wouldn't take DHB over Graham or Brad Smith. I'm iffy on Goodwin since we haven't seen what he can do but DHB is pretty much a more experienced version of him. Everyone is seriously undervaluing him right now. He's not a great wide receiver but he is a pretty solid speedster and probably around what Lee Evans was. I would take Stevie and Woods over him for sure as well as Rogers for now, but DHB is a better receiver than everyone else on the roster.

It's just like the Jets. They haven't done anything in a while but we still hear more about them than most other teams.

Yup. The moves this offseason have a completely different feel to them than even just the last offseason, and for once they seem like extremely intelligent, San Fran and Seattle type moves.

As you said, it's early. Not something you should be worrying about.

I think Kyle makes it too. He seems to be generally pretty well respected in the same way Freddy was. For what it's worth, I think we had the most players in the top 25 for PFF's top 101 of 2012. https://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2013/05/06/pffs-top-101-of-2012-the-full-list/

I agree. Moulds was definitely the better receiver but Evans was a solid contributor during our worst quarterbacking years. He wasn't the best starting receiver but he was a really good second.

Well from their perspective Hughes was basically what you just said there and they see Bradham the way we see Hughes although probably not as optimistic.

Ya I don't know, all the Colts fans I've talked to said he was terrible and most think they got the better deal out of the trade.

I agree that we should wait until training camp and pre-season but I would put in whoever is playing the best no matter who it is. This team wants to win this year and the best QB should be playing.

If we only got 2-5 I would be shocked. I just don't see this team regressing with a coaching staff that looks like it completely blows our old coaching staff out of the water. Combine that with a moderate upgrade in talent and I can't see any reasons for us to do worse than we did last year.

That's how I'm seeing it go down. This front office will get done what needs to be done but I also don't see them overpaying anyone. I'm still hopeful a deal gets done during the offseason though.

The general consensus here is that he wasn't any good. I don't know about his overall playing but his dropped interceptions did kill us a few times.

Really? PFF had him rated higher than Levitre for last year. Of course they also said George Wilson was pretty good.

So now that the draft is over I just wanted to see what everyone's expecting for this upcoming season. I see us either competing with the Pats for the division if things go well or finishing 7-9, 8-8 if not.
