Look to the draft for an OT with our first round pick. Plenty of them avaliable this year, grab a future all pro. The line needs an overhaul!! Second round pick should be a DT. Use the two the 3rd rounders to get a DE and WR. The free agent wire should be a real key to rebuilding(yes we are rebuilding). Find established guys at CB, we need a new # 1 or 2 WR, O-line, DE. Get a guy like Travis Minor for a change of pace back to give Willis a break. Time to get a new offensive coordinator also and Donahoe must go. Is Modrak any better? Who knows? I think we need to stay inside the organazation, thus leaving Modrak as the only true candidate. More to come.....

BuffaloBud Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 Have to disagree about Aiken. IMO, has played very well on ST, can be a possible 3rd receiver. For some reason can't break through.

Williams, Shaud RB (thought he would be a solid 3rd down or change of pace back, not working out consistently, should be cut) 521350[/snapback] Have a problem with this one. S Williams is one of the few guys who comes to play and takes the game to heart. There was a very successful pass play yesterday -and I wish I could remember exactly which one - but Willams was lined up in the backfield and saved JP, rolling to his right, from getting sacked. If you have it TiVo'd it came around the 1:05 mark of the game. Williams, the little 5'7" scrapper, staying in as a blocker, was holding his own against a much bigger Dolphin linebacker, and was determined not to let him get to Losman. If the rest of the team played with that measure of heart, they'd now have 3 or 4 more wins this season.
Buckeye Eric Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 Based on this thread, people are generally happy with the talent on this team.... Interesting....
Doza Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 Everyone is satisfied that Losman is the "future of the team"?
Ramius Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 Everyone is satisfied that Losman is the "future of the team"? 521420[/snapback] Actually yes. Hows the future looking for your team with no CB's, no WR's, a disgruntled half injured 30+ yr old RB, and an aging defense that makes our D look good? Thats right, you guys think Tommy "system QB" will bring you to the promised land all by himself, and when you get there, that brushi will have turned the water cooler into wine.
Mark Vader Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 I disagree with you on Shaud Williams, he has played very good as a back up, and is a surprisingly very good blocker. I also disagree about Mike Schneck, I have not seen any problem whatsoever with any of our punting or FG XP snaps. So I would keep him. Lawyer Milloy is a big question mark. I think he has lost a step, but the Bills don't have anyone to replace him with. You could probably cut Troy Vincent and give the starting FS job to Rashad Baker, he's going to start the soon enough anyway. I do hope that Josh Reed stays he has stepped up this year and I would be glad to see him back on the team. Also agree about Ritzmann, let's see if he can finally get on the active roster. Get rid of Bennie Anderson, i'm not impressed with him. I agree Trey Teague will be gone and Duke Preston will be our new Center next season.
Mark Vader Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 Based on this thread, people are generally happy with the talent on this team.... Interesting.... 521409[/snapback] I know I am. There are only a few players that I have a problem with. I think it's the playcalling that drives me crazy.
BillsFan Trapped in Pats Land Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 Everyone is satisfied that Losman is the "future of the team"? 521420[/snapback] Guy's been solid since he came back. The loss yesterday has very little to do with him. The game calling on both sides of the ball and the defensive intensity, or lack of, are the main issues.

He's improving, he's Young, I have no problem with Losman right now...

Fake-Fat Sunny Posted December 6, 2005 Posted December 6, 2005 This was a gteat post. Once I had the time I was going to go through our roster and take the same approach and not only did you do it first but outside of a quibble here and there regarding some back- I think your take on the players is right on target. The post really does point out that leadership and organization are the issues rather than talent, I'm sure we could find better players at almost any position if we are willing to spend the cash but it would probably make little difference in the outcome. Many thanks.

Thats right, you guys think Tommy "system QB" will bring you to the promised land all by himself, and when you get there, that brushi will have turned the water cooler into wine. 521425[/snapback] Yet we will still win the division by 4 games. And our D doesn't blow a 21 point lead either. So much for making "your D look good". As long as Donahoe runs that team, you'll never win. And I bet you'd give anything to have Brady right now.
