Coach Tuesday Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Let's ruin that bridge when we get to it, mmk?
rafter Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 I wonder how many Geno threads we will get between now and the draft?
Hapless Bills Fan Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 We even suck at tanking a season. Sadly true
KD in CA Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 I wonder how many Geno threads we will get between now and the draft? I'm sure it will be an impressive #, but the pre-draft Tebow thread count will never be surpassed. I don't know why people torture themselves....you know the Bills are going to pull off 2-3 wins late in the season that will drop them to somewhere around the 9th pick. And that means no Smith or Barkley.
Meathead Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 It's time for the Buffalose Bills to take their rightful place in the CFL and become the Toronto Maple Saplings finally someone talking some sense

Dennis in NC Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 We even suck at tanking a season. I'm afraid you are correct there. They will win enough games against crappy teams to take them out of the geno sweepstakes (if Geno is rated that highly). It happens every year.
#34fan Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Nope, Geno isn't a good fit for Gaileys ultra-complex, German enigma machine offense. Since we'd rather hang on to Gailey's "offensive genius", we'll never take the kid.
The Wiz Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 (edited) Our defense JUST might be better in the CFL. They'd have a better chance of getting off the field after two downs, that's for sure. Then again, the longer field means more turf they have to defend so it's a wash. What league is below the CFL? GO BILLS!!! Where the highest paid players are, NCAA. Actually I think some college teams would probably own them. Edited October 11, 2012 by The Wiz
Hazed and Amuzed Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Let's say that we can't trade up and we're picking say 7th or so. Do we take a 2nd tier QB like Tyler Wilson or do we go with a 1st tier LB like Te'o?
atlbillsfan1975 Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 seriously concerned that if a bona fide QB is staring us in the face that this regime will draft elsewhere? I doubt we end up in a position to draft say, Geno Smith. But if we were given the oppurtunity to do so...I'm seriously concerned they would ignore that fact. They seem disgustingly solid on where they are at QB. You really think that? I mean they brought in Vince Young as a back up. They also traded for T Jackson. I am not so sure i believe they think this way. If anything i think those two moves point to the fact that this regime realizes they have to win this year or they will not be makin gthose decisions in April.
Saint Doug Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Let's say that we can't trade up and we're picking say 7th or so. Do we take a 2nd tier QB like Tyler Wilson or do we go with a 1st tier LB like Te'o? In terms of QBs, crazy things begin happening in the 1-2 months leading up to the draft. It's a time when all prior accomplishments (or, rather, lack of) during their college careers are thrown out and a whole bunch of turd polishing begins. QBs you never believed would be 1st round draft picks suddenly begin to be discussed as top 5 picks. My point is, if we don't grab one early on (in the first round), there will be some run of QBs picked sometime after our 1st pick and we'll be left with no one to pick from in the 2nd.

Do we take a 2nd tier QB like Tyler Wilson or do we go with a 1st tier LB like Te'o? Te'o without hesitation. There is big second tier of QBs after Smith and Barkley are gone so they will have options at QB in the 2d round.

Agreed...The change in Rookie wages has pushed QB's up the Draft Board...It's less of a financial risk now at the most important Position...If you want to wait until the 2nd Round you may be VERY unhappy with what is left over...

Then again, the longer field means more turf they have to defend so it's a wash. What league is below the CFL? GO BILLS!!! Hey, being a CFL defense would mean we could have 12 men on defense. Maybe by outnumbering a NFL offense we could keep them under 600 yards!
BuffBill Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 One thing can be said about this organization. They excell at mediocrity. Not sure I agree. For about 70% of the organizations existence, they have been well below mediocrity.
AReed Deep For6 Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Tanking a season would be the best thing for us, it needs to happen. If we tank not only do we pick at the top of the 1st round, but obviously all other rounds. We really need this kind of talent injected into the team
Charles Romes Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 I don't see the Bills going 2-14. I can see 4-12 or 5-11. With "luck" 6-10. They still have Tenn, Indy, then Jags, Rams (at home in December) And they could beat the Jets if the Jets are out of the playoffs then as well. Gaily v. Jeff Fisher. Hmmmmmm
