ACor58 Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 Link I didn't think that he would rank that high (not that it matters), ahead of D'Brick and Maroney but nice to see none the less. Price was ranked #7 (not sure where they found a shot of him actually catching a ball in Dallas.)
Astrobot Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 In that picture, Price hasn't actually caught the ball yet. A lot can happen in those last 3 inches. In the NFC East, they have 1. Terrell Owens 2. Andre Carter 3. Broderick Bunkley 4. LeVar Arrington 5. Mike VanDerJagt 6. Adam Archuleta 7. Darren Howard You gotta think that Bunkley and Arrington are a little high. Either that, or Sports illustrated is.

Whitner was always around the ball. He might make a big splash.
eball Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 He might make a big splash. 721988[/snapback] Somebody go tell Mort. At last check, he was still yammering about "confusion in the Bills' War Room" or something to that effect.

Nanker Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 Wasn't TO already in the NFC East??? 721996[/snapback] So was Lavar Arrington. Same division, different teams. Somebody ask SI why Dallas is in the NFC East. They're in a different friggin time zone even. That's aways pissed me off.

That's aways pissed me off. 721998[/snapback] Because Jerry Jones is a very powerful owner and he didn't want to lose his traditional rivalries when they shuffled the divisions.

At last check, he was still yammering about "confusion in the Bills' War Room" or something to that effect. 721995[/snapback] Shame on Mort. Whitner was a very notable college player, at least to me. Play after play after play - he was in the camera. Made a tackle, turned a runner for others, knocked a ball down and so on. A big plus for the Bills if he does that. That's Ron Woodson, Ed Reed, Ray Lewis or TKO play. Need not make the play - but funnels it to the stoppers.
MartyBall4Buffalo Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 I see this wasnt mentioned yet but notice how dbrickshaw ferguson is really thin and wears knee braces. That seems like a great pick http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/multimedi.../content.4.html
AKC Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 I think that Triplett and/or McCargo better be positive impact newcomers for us or it is going to be a very long season. 721967[/snapback] Chances are if Triplett/McCargo/Anderson have a big season the majority of the credit will end up in a defensive back's future paycheck. Since that's the reality of this league, I'd be just as happy seeing it go to a hard-sticking Safety who's spreading some fear rather than anyone else in the backfield.
ACor58 Posted July 12, 2006 Author Posted July 12, 2006 I see this wasnt mentioned yet but notice how dbrickshaw ferguson is really thin and wears knee braces. That seems like a great pick http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/multimedi.../content.4.html 722025[/snapback] If you watch closely you will see that a lot of Offensive Lineman wear knee braces. Both for stability and to offer some sort of protection against getting rolled into, which happens quite a bit. I don't think that Brick has any knee problems and I while he might be thin, he is very athletic and has a huge wingspan. Being fat does not mean being good. See Williams, Mike.

IDBillzFan Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 Because Jerry Jones is a very powerful owner and he didn't want to lose his traditional rivalries when they shuffled the divisions. 722000[/snapback] The NFL actually considered changing Time Zones to accomodate Jerry Jones. He's that powerful. Really. (Am I the only one who loves to see him pacing the sidelines when his team starts to meltdown?)
Scraps Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 Because Jerry Jones is a very powerful owner and he didn't want to lose his traditional rivalries when they shuffled the divisions. 722000[/snapback] Pretty much the same reason Buffalo is in the AFC East.
Dante Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 (Am I the only one who loves to see him pacing the sidelines when his team starts to meltdown?) 722099[/snapback] Not by a long shot. Its almost as good as seeing Drews dazed look while he's screwing up.
AJ1 Posted July 13, 2006 Posted July 13, 2006 Not by a long shot. Its almost as good as seeing Drews dazed look while he's screwing up. 722168[/snapback] Drew has that same blank look when he's riding high. Should have been a poker player.
dave mcbride Posted July 13, 2006 Posted July 13, 2006 Pretty much the same reason Buffalo is in the AFC East. 722103[/snapback] absolutely. using geographical logic, the bills should be in the central and baltimore should be in the east. wilson wanted to maintain that vaunted rivalry with miami, though (although the only people who are aware of the rivalry are bills fans) ...
OCinBuffalo Posted July 13, 2006 Posted July 13, 2006 absolutely. using geographical logic, the bills should be in the central and baltimore should be in the east. wilson wanted to maintain that vaunted rivalry with miami, though (although the only people who are aware of the rivalry are bills fans) ... 722273[/snapback] And Dan Marino Three reasons: 1. When I lived in Pittsburgh the local paper did an interview and when asked about Buffalo he said something to the effect of "It's a town full of losers, I hate the city, the people blah, blah, blah." I was howling laughing. 2. He hates Buffalo so much he won't say Buffalo Wings(he only says wings) - on a radio interview in Pittsburgh they were purposely trying to get him to say the word Buffalo - and he wouldn't. 3. We are the primary reason he doesn't have a super bowl ring - my favorite!!!! GO BILLS!!!
mary owen Posted July 13, 2006 Posted July 13, 2006 wow, I'm shocked. SI.com was very down on this pick. How is this such a reach, yet your writer(s) deem him that valuable in his first season???? is this a CYA move?
