Hopefully after maybin gets cut, these threads will stop getting made every week. Maybin as a wr? the guy has never run a route in his life, hasn't even attempted to catch a football in college or the pros.... and people want to cut one of our good WR prospects just becasue maybin's size matches with a wr? But this thread about him being a tightend is crazy talk. He can't tackle a QB, so logic says he can block and protect a QB? People are crazy. How about we do something unthinkable. How about we play players based on talent and not just on their size.

TBD also exist to second guess posters' silly comments. There are a lot of bad things to say about this team, coaches, front office, owner, etc. But calling them "pu$$ys" with "$s" because they got the typical camp injuries is more than just a silly comment. It is a straight up face palm moment. seriously, even a rookie fan who knows little about football would know that if a player strains a muscle he isn't going to be in whatever serious scenario he had in his head.

so far, nothing more noticable than any other year. I am sure after the first week of preseason games, we will have a better idea how much it affected them. I would think it would mostly be rookies that will fall to injuries more.

I'll read it, like I do every week. I usually don't agree with him, especially when he gets talking about the pats*. but having one of the team's more harsh critics say some good things about them is good. But he has had a lot man-love for kyle williams awhile now. Cant wait to see what the dareus/williams combo can do.

They are all typical injuries you would see in training camp on any team, except for Nelson's. His is a little off. It isn't anything unusual and the other teams' have it just as bad, if not worse. We are lucky nothing season ending, yet. If dareus was walking around in a boot after foot surgury like fairly, then I would be a lot more worried. This is really a non issue. I think the most one of the players will miss is two weeks, so far.

yeah, a couple years ago when we went 4-2 in our division, we totally rocked. I mean, we swept the jets AND the phins! pretty awesome. But in all seriousness, this team isn't going to suck. But it has mediocracy written all over it. Unless the rookies develop faster than expected, this team won't be good until they plug in some more holes and develop the younger players more. And another note on the division, jets and pats* may be pretty good, but the phins are nothing to be scared of. At all. And I would bet good money that if our run defense greatly improves, we will beat either the pats* or the jests once this year, at least. But if the run defense still sucks, or doesn't improve much, they are probably going to sweep us. jauron? You want even MORE dbs? I just find it hilarious you had to explain who he is. That is like, "man, we should have drafted tom brady (you know, that pats* QB?) when we had the chance!" Should have signed Michael vick (ex falcons QB that kills dogs that is tearing it up in philly) too!

that game, the starters won't play much anyway. probably a series or two. T is obviously a glaring issue with this team as well as linebacker. We have to hope whoever we have in there stays healthy or rookies step up.

You are thinking of our linebackers.

A lot of people said a lot of things after every player was drafted. Sheppard seemed to get a lot of praise. I really only like him mostly for his attitude. Seeing him rile up LSU's team was pretty fun. Not sure if he will be a starter or not, but I would be surprised if he becomes a starter this year, and looks good. But I would bet good money he starts at least 2 games this year, due to injuries. I like the guy a lot, but you never know with these players how they are going to produce on the field until they play.

haha "if you saw and watched these guys, we got bigger. So, I mean, whether we can play or not, but we got bigger" so silly. Sad that I still love this team and will see every bills game this season.

I was one of those 35 people. Pretty bummed I didn't get the gig

I personally would start Hangartner at G over Ubrik. Has more experience and is overall pretty stable. Ubrik, for showing some flashes, is still a bit of an unkown at this point, as far as what is potential is.

don't mind shopping evans at this point. Especially if we get a good vet at another position of need like T or LB. but I wouldn't go any lower than a 4th. And to be honest, we probably couldn't get a 5th. There are too many wide receivers in free agency, that no one is going to really need him. if there weren't so many recievers in free agency, the best we could get is probably a 5th.

Well, a few months ago he was miffed. It doesn't mean he has been miffed for months.

most people are speculating 3rd QB.

bet she can play linebacker

did wikipediea say where you can grab a clabo jersey?

If they got something worked out, like they will send him the private jet and bring to to buffalo tomorrow evening, then that would be great. He could actually sign, which would be better than the verbal agreement. I think he would be easier to agree in person as well.

I'd rather have both.

exactly

That was never my fear. My fear is always that the bills won't be aggressive enough, and right now, my fear of that is lessoning. for now.

Agreed on all points. I don't think the bills would have a problem giving him 7 a year. My worry is the guarentteed part, which seems to be most important to the players, and where we are a little stingy on. But whatever we are offering, it must be worth it. It seems it is just us and the falcons targeting him. If he didn't like what we were offering, he probably would have agreed with the falcons by now. It's true. And it will be easier to keep players when we start winning as well. But I say our luck is going to change. If the pirates can have a good recent season, the bills can have one too!

If we do sign him, I know we are going to overpay him. But I would like the signing so much. Would really help that oline and the offense out a lot .

I think they will offer a lot more money, the problem is, the guarenteed amount will probably be low, since that would fit our MO. We have to spend the cap money, but the guarenteed signing bonus money is a different story. It is interesting that they are still talking. there might even be a bidding war there.

I think it is a good sign that there are rumors the bills are talking to free agents like clabo and barret, and less on the rookies. Looks like they are actually going to be making some improvements. Might not be a big splash, but improvements nonetheless. And i think that Poz bailing got them a little scared, and he was a big chunk of what they were planning on spending.
