altruisticbillsfan Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 ??? What mistakes are still on our roster??? PTR Wake up dude, Chris Kelsay is on our starting lineup!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benderbender Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 The only mistake the Patriots made was pissing off the guy who was spying on other teams for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisyphean Bills Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 ??? What mistakes are still on our roster??? PTR I agree Robo. They've been swinging the ax heavily... OTOH, it depends on what you consider a "mistake". The Bills roster is far from stacked. Hopefully some of the new kids aren't just more error maybins.

RussellDopeland Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Prediction: You're going to be eating crow on that one this season. I've been bashing Kelsay too - but he really looks like he's got OLB figured out now - I don't expect you to believe me right now - just hold that thought for December and we'll check in again. The only thing Kelsay has figured out is how to hoodwink Bills' management into paying him an exorbitant salary for his unspeakably-bad play.

todd Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 KELSAY 1. They extended Jauron and kept him when they shouldnt have 2. They drafted Maybin, thats bad enough 3. They didnt cut McCargo after they couldt trade him, and they let him play out his contract for another 2 years 4. Corner was not a mistake. He was a decent 4th round pick. 5. They started Edwards last year. I will repeat: "The Bills issue is NOT admitting mistakes, it is making them in the friggin' first place!" How is your reading comprehension? Yes, the started edwards, but they friggin cut him after two games. Yes, they drafted Maybenot, but they cut him after his second year. How is that not admitting a mistake? Good lord.

BillsVet Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Upon further review, the Patriots have won 10 games each of the past 8 seasons, 101 in total. During that same span, Buffalo has a little more than half that, 51. You gotta love it when folks try to take the Pats down a notch and completely ignore how bad the Bills have been. But yes, one draft illustrates how much closer the Bills are to the Patriots level. Doesn't mean I don't hate them, but man is this a stretch.

eball Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 We hoard all of our draft picks as if they're going to magically become good (McKelvin, McCargo for a long time, etc etc). And they draft for need, we keep drafting RB's and wonder why our team isn't getting any better. The best teams in the league don't have stud 1st round draft picks. They have great offensive lines, qb and/or d-line and linebackers. We refuse to address any important positions in our draft then we'll either keep them too long or just let them go and draft the exact same thing the next year. Dareus was the first pick in a LONG time that I actually liked. You fit your screen name well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Barbarian Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 I was reading an article about the Patriots signing Waters and I found this little tidbit at the very end to be fascinating: By releasing Meriweather, who signed with the Bears on Sunday, the team has no remaing players from those drafted in 2007. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d821f4869/article/patriots-agree-to-terms-with-veteran-pro-bowl-g-waters?module=HP11_headline_stack Yes but they are still winning, I wouldn't care if we cut anyone as long as it led to winning.

aussiebills Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 The mistakes have been cleared out - but who has filled the gaping holes after 10 years of horrid drafting? Do they have them filled now? That remains to be seen. The only real gaping hole is o-line, we are solid at most other positions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ganesh Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 The only real gaping hole is o-line, we are solid at most other positions That is on paper...It remains to be seen how that translates to the playing field. Translating Talent to Plays is a big task and requires a strong coaching staff. They got to avoid mental mistakes, make game day adjustments, make 1/2 time adjustments, be prepared to unleash the unexpected and finally when it matters you got to win the 1-on-1 match ups. We will see how far this team has progressed mentally. If they did, then the mistakes are cut down and the team will have more wins. We will find out in 6 days from now.

todd Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Kelsay doesn't suck. He's overpaid. Big difference. Question - do you really know anything about football, or are you just here to whine like a little beeotch? Jerry, is that you? Now I notice your screen name. I've been interacting with a troll. Why do they still have kelsay then? Surely, they know he sucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question - do you really know anything about football, or are you just here to whine like a little beeotch? Jerry, is that you? Now I notice your screen name. I've been interacting with a troll. He sucks man. He is absolutely useless in the 3-4 system. As a 4-3 defensive end, at least he is somewhat productve as he can put pressure on the qb once or twice a game. However, he CANNOT contain, is always in the wrong position, gets thrown around by bigger, meaner guys, and simply does not have the talent to be an impactful NFL player. I do not understand how Bills fans can still vouch for this guy. And I'm putting his ridiculous contract aside when I say this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thoner7 Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 (edited) I will repeat: "The Bills issue is NOT admitting mistakes, it is making them in the friggin' first place!" How is your reading comprehension? Yes, they started edwards, but they friggin cut him after two games. Yes, they drafted Maybenot, but they cut him after his second year. How is that not admitting a mistake? Good lord. My reading comprehension is just fine - how is yours? They started Edwards last season. Why didnt they ditch him in the offseason? The Bills are a day late and a dollar short every year. And I gave you Maybin. That seems to be the one time they were proactive in their cutting/having him a healthy scratch. However, they could have cut him after last year and given another undrafted guy (like Eddins) a chance to make the roster. You knew Maybin wasnt going to make it so why waste your time.

Smears Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 F the pats, soon Brady will get hurt and you will never hear of him or that midget Woodhead again. I cant wait until Belicheat leaves and that team sucks again. Lets talk about the Bills........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One could make a case that if Maybin was even a mediocre player, the Bills would've forced him into the rotation and he might still even be on the roster if he had shown even a glimmer of hope or progress.

Mr. WEO Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Didn't Merriweather get picked up by the Bears, where he will be a starting CB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miserable_fan Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Didn't Merriweather get picked up by the Bears, where he will be a starting CB? CB? Really? They already have Tillman and don't have any great safeties that I can think of. Strange... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
