I guess 1. is plausible but why on earth would the Patriots draft a QB with the top pick in the draft when they just signed Brady to a monster extension? You're going to give 60-70 million to your backup QB?

Oh my God, will you people get over Incognito? If he's so good maybe we can just sign him in free agency since he signed a one year vet minimum deal with Miami, who last time I checked underachieved on offense all around this year. You're right, Kelsay was overpaid, but at Incognito's expense? I'm sure that we can do better than that.

You're definitely over-reacting and we can only hope that the front office is not doing the same. If the last two games (and the Minnesota game for that matter) proved anything it's that we need to go defense, early and often, all offseason long. You're talking about QB's, RB's, and WR's. We shouldn't be focused on anything but defensive front 7 and offensive line for at least the first three rounds of the draft.

Isn't this part of the issue the last few weeks? We lost our receivers. That affects the QB. I think people are over-reacting because of this. We're fine with Evans, SJ, Parrish, Nelson plus we have Easley, Jones, and Naaman in reserve. We definitely need offensive lineman, there is no doubt about that, particularly road graters, but is blowing up the offense and starting over really necesarry because of the past two games?

My thoughts exactly. Maybe Tasker would have some inside info but it wasn't him because he was doing our game and I didn't hear him mention it. Outside of him there is no one who announces for CBS who would have any idea.

This exercise has so many flaws I won't even get into it. I will just say that after the combine and scouting and vetting, interviews, etc. there always seems to be about 2-3 elite talents apparent in the draft and obviously some sleepers and diamonds in the rough that develop but check out the Top 3 in the past ten years. There are barely any busts in the top 3 that aren't QB's...name which guys in the Top 3 that you wouldn't take on the Bills?

Why would Palmer help the Bengals get a draft pick when he could well be playing for another team next year?

Talking about losing 15 of 18 divisional games, check out the rushing stats we've given up in those game.

In Whitner's semi-defense I think that he's talking about other people too, not just him. He's definitely talking about Whitner but I don't think it's JUST him.

This...if Fitz makes our O-Line play better than let's just play Fitz and go get some Front 7 help.

It kind of makes perfect sense though...if you play tougher teams then you are probably better than the team with the same record who played teams that are worse...right?

Not to be a jerk but pay attention bro...we've gone over this a million times. Head to head is not a tiebreaker in draft order.

No way a team trades into the top 5 unless Luck is there, which I doubt.

Maybe they need to add incentives to these games...say free foot massages.

Could be that they plan to start taking the game less serious as soon as the Jets do and Chan is taking a few days to prep the two back-ups and figure out who he wants to get the snaps on Sunday.

I'm all over Austin if he is there in the 2nd. Kid is going to be a player.

Should be interesting to see how this plays out Tressel says suspended players have pledged to return in 2011

The problem is you are creating more holes to fill when there are already plenty of holes. That's what's been going on for years at One Bills Drive. We let Poz go and people will be complaining next year because we are weak at ILB and didn't have the draft picks to replace Poz. Remember we need another ILB for the defense...are we going to find two ILBs in the same offseason?

Depends on how high the price tag gets...one thing not to forget however is that Fitzy is only under contract for one more season.

Sure. Let's cut him and see how long it takes Belichik to pick up the phone and call his agent.

What are the chances Kubiak winds up back in Denver with Elway moving into the front office?

Yes but Poz will still be there right?

I noticed Mark Herzlich's name on a lot of the mock drafts. Maybe I am biased because I'm from B.C. but I would absolutely LOVE that pick. He was a beast before he got cancer and he wasn't even back to 100% last year. Would be a great story to boot.

With one division game left to play this year we have given up 887 yards rushing and picked up 494 yards of rushing ourselves. Sadly this is likely an improvement over last season when we let up 1,156 yards vrs. divison opponents (I suppose it's not out of the realm of possiblity to give up over 269 yards on Sunday to the Jets) against 633 yards gained on the ground. The worst part is that the Jets have racked up 840 yards rushing against us in the last three games and will likely breeze to a 1,000 4-game stretch against us Sunday when they should easily get over 160 yards. Anyone still not convinved Front 7 is the way to go, early and often, at the top of the draft?

I hate to break it to you but the off-season might not be starting anytime soon.
