You just contradicted yourself...you say unless its for a NFL superstar, then say most for McNabb would be a 3rd...well, hate to break it to you but McNabb is an NFL superstar, and if we can get him for a #1, we have to consider it. There is not player in this draft, even if we had the #1 pick in the draft that will come in and have the impact McNabb would have here next year, or even in the 2 or 3 years to follow. We will have maybe a pick somwhere between 8 and 15 I am guessing, so there is no player that will help as much as McNabb and he is young enough to have that impact for several more seasons.
We are a young team...more YOUNG players isnt gonna get us to the promise land. Some of our key players are NOT so young by the way, and some may not be here much longer once these younger players become free agents. So, its not like we have a 5 year window to get good. A teams realistic window is generally 3 years with Free Agency unless they are some of the few teams that keep their key pieces, which we dont have a great track record of.
We have enough talent on this team to make a serious run if we had an Elite QB...Trent will not get us there next year...in fact, with Trent we will struggle to win 7 games with our Brutal schedule next season...
How did I contradict myself? Just because I didn't put "NFL Superstar" right next to McNabb's name that means I'm contradicting myself?! Why don't you learn reading comprehension. I also said "I doubt" the Eagles would take a 3rd rounder in exchange for McNabb as they would want a higher draft pick (meaning 1st or 2nd rounder).
You are right about the window of opportunity for this team, we have about 3 to 5 years. But, regardless of who is the QB, we need another WR, if you think our group of WR's is good enough than you're crazy. We need a stellar WR to compliment Evans, whether it's Jennings or Houshmanzadeh (or how ever you spell his name). The last time we had a good offense was Bledsoe's first year when we had Moulds & Price. Having a big physical WR would be a perfect compliment to Evans. If Hardy develops, it will take him 3 or 4 years, especially with his recent ACL injury. If the Bills don't get upgrades on offense at the WR, TE & C position, we will have the same offense next year regardless of who's the coach and who's the QB is.
Bottom line, Ralph will no longer give up a 1st or 2nd rounder. Read the article from the Buffalo news, it's not going to happen.

In the pregame they are talking about McNabb and how with McNabb your team has a chance to go to be good and go to the Super Bowl...how in his entire career he has only had a #1 target in just 23 games...how he is still an elite QB and top 5 in the league...
So Keyshawn chimes in and says, if you dont want em Philly, Buffalo will take him...
I say, HELLZ YEAH we will take him...gawd I hope we go after McNabb if he is available...give them Trent and our #1
You talk about me with my questioning of the Bills FO not bringing in a veteran WR in the offseason and you're willing to trade away Trent Edwards & our #1 pick? I'm glad you're not the GM.
-
any word on who Kelly's group is?
Kelly said he's been contacted by more than a dozen people who are interested in partnering with him, but Jimbo hasn't disclosed exactly who.
-
New flash to Ralph.........he has the ability to say no to certain trades!!!!! He has himself to blame. He's mad about the Donahoe era, ok well he hired him....his fault.
Back when Marv was in charge he gave up some picks to get into the first for McCargo....again Ralph's fault for letting it happen....
No matter what Ralph has to say anymore about the past & present he has himself to blame.....stop pointing fingers.
I agree, I just wish Ralph would sell the team to Jim Kelly & his group.

Ralph is still mad about giving up 1st round draft picks to move up in the draft from the Donahoe era, plus the highest we offered for Tony Gonzazlez was a 3rd rounder (Stroud - 3rd & 5th rounders), so Ralph is not going to let the Bills FO give up 1st & 2nd round picks. So, unless we try & trade for a NFL superstar, the highest you'll see the Bills give up is a 3rd rounder, and I doubt Philly will give up McNabb for a 3rd rounder or less.
-
Ralph is still pissed about giving away draft picks from the Donahoe era, so I highly doubt you'll see McNabb in a Bills jersey in 09'.
-
Here are some good stats, Marshawn Lynch is tied for 10th in rushing with 1,002. But the one I really like is seeing our old buddy Trash at #36. I got so sick of hearing from people (especially the non-Bills fans) at what a great RB McGahee was in college and it was our O-Line's fault for him not being successful here in Buffalo. I'm just glad that Trash was able to continue to live off his college career long enough for us to dump him and get 3 picks from the Ravens for his sorry ass.

Paper bags, signs & t-shirts showing our displeasure would be a good start. But low ticket sales for the 09' season is the best way to get Ralphie's attention.
-
If all of us want to really make a statement, then people should hold off from buy season tickets for next year right away. After the 2001-2002 season when we were 3-13, there was a small of amount of season tickets sold. Shortly after, Donahoe traded for Bledsoe and ticket sales went back up.
Once Ralph sees a significant drop in ticket sales, him & the front office will be forced to make changes.
-
Would you take TJ Houshwhatever instead of Jennings? You gotta think Jennings would get franchised or - if not franchised - would cost a good deal more than TJ. Do we need to pay for TWO top flight WR's? Or is what we have sufficient with money better spent on the lines, LB, safeties, etc.
I'd take TJ Hoosyourmomma if we couldn't get Jennings. Our WR's are not getting the job done right now, which is why we need another weapon. Evans can't shake the double-teams and doesn't have the size to. (and yes, Steve Smith is 5'9", but he's an exception).

Triplette got munsoned
ESPN Announcer: So JP, where have you been for the last fifteen years?
JP: Well, I uh, well, ya see, I uh... Drinking. Lot a drinking.
ESPN Announcer: I see. Well, are you still drinking?
JP: No. I uh... I put... uh... Why, you buying?
At least Munson got the very hot Ms. Claudia at the end.

Bringing in McNabb will be similar to when we brought in Bledsoe & also when the Ravens brought in McNair. We would see good results for a year, maybe 2, then he'll fizzle out like Bledsoe & McNair did.
-
He may be gone, then who?
What about Jim Haslett?
I'd like to see Haslett, Marvin Lewis or Romeo Crennel as our defense coordinator, but not as head coach.
-
I think our offense needs a WR, TE & C. It would be great if we could land Greg Jennings or another top caliber WR in Free Agency. Lee Evans needs help, but IMO he's a #2 receiver, not a #1. Evans hasn't been able to put up consistent numbers every week. The last 2 weeks, Reed has been our most productive receiver. Parrish has been dropping a bunch of passes since his thumb surgery, so the Bills should keep him on special teams. A great scenario would be #1 WR Jennings, #2 WR Evans, #3 Reed, #4 Steve Johnson. Maybe with Hardy going on IR with an ACL injury, the Bills FO might actively look for a WR. I also hope the Bills FO get at least 1 better DE, if not, our pass rush will be a joke again next season even with Schobel back in the line up.
-
Then I fully expect him to let Fewell & Turd walk as coordinators. Thats the only way I see anyone being ok with Jauron staying. If he keeps the staff he has now, forget about it, fan base will walk......but if he changes things with the coaching staff thats the only way I see them saving grace here.......the only way.....
If Jauron stays, i don't think I can watch this team in 09'.
-
I'd take Norv Turner for our Offensive Coordinator and one of the 3 for Defensive Coordinator: Crennel, Lewis or Hazlett. Head coach: Cowher or Schottenheimer.
-
I would see if we could get Det to bite for their second #1 pick send Shobel and McCargo to Det for the pick and let's get some better players. Sorry to all but Schobel is on the downside and if we could move his salary we should.
I agree, Schobel is not worth the $50.5 million dollar (or whatever the amount was) contract he was given.
-
Who is Bill Cowher and are you related to Ted Stryker?
Is he the guy that looks like Sgt. Slaughter (when he was younger and weighed about 100 lbs less?)
-
You couldn't be farther from the truth. Are we talking about the guy whose outside speed rush consists of going halfway around the world to get to the QB and who is usually 10 yards upfield before he realizes it is a running play? That is the player who never bites on fakes and is always in position?

Good post!!
-
Draft C Alex Mack in the 1st round and TE Chase Coffman in the second. Sign DE Bertland Berry and OLB Bart Scott in free agency.
Sounds good, but knows what direction Bills FO will go this offseason (probably draft more DB's)
-
What if we're on the Jests 2 yard line?
Losman would be holding onto the ball way too long, run into one of the O-linemen and get sacked.
-
I voted for Ralph. Ralph was burned by Lou Saban and felt Donahoe ran this organization into the ground so he's shell shocked now and is afraid to hire anyone that is demanding and someone who will stand up to him. Ralph only hires bobbleheads now that will just do and agree with everything he wants.
-
I will give you the fact that he plays the well some what, but DE's are suppose to get to the QB more so then stop the run...Sorry but Schobel cant get to the QB.
I agree. Last year Schobel had 6.5 sacks, this year he'll end up with 1 sack in 5 games. You don't pay a guy $7 million a year for that kind of production.

Who's this Mark guy?!
