Larry Playfair Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 A good friend is part of the Wilsons' extended family and was in the Bills war room again this year. He said they were salivating over that K the Jets took (Nugent)... they were looking for ways to move up before the Jets to nab him, but couldn't swing the right deal. He said that Parrish is supposed to be just like Lavernius Coles. They said he has amazing hands and speed - faster than Lee Evans - the only knock being his size. They loved the TE and have been looking at him for quite awhile... I haven't gotten the skinny on the Day 2 guys yet...
USMCBillsFan Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 Thanks for the word. I would've loved to get Nugent and was pissed when the Jets took him. Everyone will bash me for wanting a kicker in the 2nd but we could've used him.

I was worried that TD did not see it is an issue, given his non-chalant attitude towards kickers in the past. ps---thanks for the info!
FTW_BillsFan Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 No bashing from me. I've been wanting Nugent the whole time.
1billsfan Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 Though it would have been sweet to have a kicker that'd hit a 50+ with regularity, I think it may have had a negative impact in terms of an offense's attack philosophy. I think a team would be far more willing to accept the 3 points rather than going for touchdowns. With Lindel, we're going for broke every possession!
SDS Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 the only knockbeing his size. 318216[/snapback] yeah, nothing to be concerned about. Oh BTW, he is prone to spontaneously combust too...
SDS Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 Coles has 2 inches and 25 lbs on him... and people consider Coles SMALL...

I like it. Well done...

Just the "public persona" part of acting not interested is what we get. Thanks for the info Larry!
1billsfan Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 Now that's some good spin!! I like it. Well done... 318245[/snapback] But it's so true. Losman can threaten the guys in the huddle with, "Look! If we don't make this first down Lindel will come in and then we're all screwed! On two, on two, break!!"

On two, on two, break!!" 318304[/snapback] yeah, but the obvious retort from one of the lineman... we'll just give up a sack to knock us out of FG range so we can bring in our MVP (Most Valuable Punter)

I suspect TD is a pretzels and diet coke kind of guy, but Modrak will eat anything.

RJsackedagain Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 was eric moulds there with a pizza? 318473[/snapback] I didn't know Moulds had another job in the off-season
Peter Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 I didn't know Moulds had another job in the off-season 318482[/snapback] I think that this was a reference to when EM ordered pizza delivered to practice while he was at Mississippi State.
RJsackedagain Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 I think that this was a reference to when EM ordered pizza delivered to practice while he was at Mississippi State. 318502[/snapback] Thanks dude ---- I was making a joke since people on here have been posting that Willis needs money now and is hawking his used jerseys.
VABills Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 I think that this was a reference to when EM ordered pizza delivered to practice while he was at Mississippi State. 318502[/snapback] And Thurman had pizza's delivered to him at camp.
Arkady Renko Posted April 25, 2005 Posted April 25, 2005 I think that this was a reference to when EM ordered pizza delivered to practice while he was at Mississippi State. 318502[/snapback] I remember how Chris Berman was attacking the pick saying how this is a shift in how the Bills were all about character guys. But really, is ordering a pizza that bad? He probably just wanted one after practice was over so he could eat quickly and then go study for his chemistry test. The fact that the pizza came DURING practice was just a product of bad timing.
