What Skill position would you want if we stayed 43

Its easy to say who we should have drafted three seasons after. Ugh I was on record during the 2010 draft saying we should have drafted Terrance Cody but who knows how he would have done here.

they got tj to have a decent backup. nix has already said they can get to the dance with fitz...

 

I hope so but doubt it

it's time for the Ifs to stop

people need to let the Gronk thing go, enough already

You think...He has the best QB in the history of the game(I just vomitted in my mouth) throwing to him. You think mastermind Gailey and Fitz would get the same production out of Gronkowski. Gailey probably would still start Campbell.

Gee I was told Mallet was statue (even though I said he was mobile), looks like Roethlisberger here;

Never understood the big push to go to a 3-4, we were bad against the run but that wasn't because we were in a 4-3 it's because our defense was undersized in probably 7 out of 11 spots and that lack of size wasn't offset with amazing athleticism.

 

Actually the reason we went to 3-4 was because of the coaching change.....

 

This is where stats are incorrect.

 

In 2009 the Defense played great...the problem was in the 4th quarter because the offense did squat the defense was on the field 45+ minuted per game thus they tired out. In 2009 in all but 3 of the loses the Bills were tied/led at the start of the 4th quarter...and in one game they were behind by 3 to the Saints. The opponents blew them out in the 4th quarter because the defense got tired.

 

Had they kept the defense and Gailey just focused on the offense and kept Fewell they would have had a much bigger turn around last season if the injuries didnt happen.

yep, though I like Daves 43 better than Juron's "tiny 2"

One thing we could have is more athletic LBs. Draft delusions aside...we could have that. That said we wouldn't have a better starting 4 DL than we do now.

We would if we had a line of;

 

DE Mario

DT Marcel

DT Kyle

DE JPP

Of course the 3-4 experiment setback the D rebuild somewhat, but I'm having a hard time understanding why Tarvaris Jackson is a "panic move". Is every roster upgrade a panic move? They wanted him last year and now Seattle has made him available. Young and Thigpen aren't good enough. How is a backup QB a !@#$ing panic roster move???

bc they could have waited till he was relased but since we have no one but Fitz they panicked.

The need was there, so why wait? I think it's clear they wanted him... so they made sure they got him. Your rationale is shaky at best.

They wasted a pick that's why its bad, it's also bc they didn't get any competant QBs the past 3 years, we shouldn't be scrambling around 2 weeks before the season to get QBs.

 

I understand that we need a better backup and TJ probably is, but my problem with the whole thing has been the ineptitude of the FO about the QB situation.

Silly poll you could have just listed the busts from those drafts or even just the four players drafted immediately behind The Bills picks.

 

Re the TJ trade take aloof at how many of succesful teams like (the Pats*) picks from rounds 5-6 have made the team. If you think low talent team is a better comparison take the Fins. After the first three rounds your chances of being On the team in three years drops dramatically
