nucci Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 Just ignore. It is a ridiculous statement trying to get people fired up.
bizell Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 maybe the fact that porter's IQ is on par with peat moss had something to do with his non-selection
DC Tom Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 There you go. When spending the #11 overall, you want a KR, not a shutdown corner. Look how well Ten Ginn has worked out as a #9 overall for the Fins - heck, they just beat the PATS, so there!!!!!!!!! Perhaps amongst the Bills faithful is someone who can acknowledge the painfully obvious. Leodis isn't starting, isn't even the nickel. When got out there, he was picked on. Tracy Porter swatted away two balls at the end of the Bucs game, the opener, and yesterday showed again what happens if you decide to test him - you PAY. By midseason, teams will be avoiding Porter, and Leodis might get closer to winning the Nickel job from Youboty... But heck, he can return kicks.... just NOT AS WELL AS PORTER CAN EITHER.... Porter was the best PR in the Big Ten. Leodis was in the SUNBELT.... Are you actually arguing that the front office is incompetent because McKelvin isn't starting ahead of McGee, Greer, and Yobouty?
bills44 Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 Once again, not even close. Tracy Porter is the best corner from this Draft hands down, and Leodis isn't even close. Nice going Bills FO!!!!!!!!!!!! You've concluded this after 4 NFL games?

Realist Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 Once again, not even close. Tracy Porter is the best corner from this Draft hands down, and Leodis isn't even close. Nice going Bills FO!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah, I'm so pissed at this Front Office right now! If that's what you have to B word about so far this season, then the Bills must be doing pretty good. To me, its a good thing McKelvin's not starting. Let him learn and in a couple of years it'll be McKelvin and Youboty as our starting corners.
elegantelliotoffen Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 Porter would get just as much playing time in Buffalo as McKelvin is.

VOR Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 "I was going to post this. Porter basically HAD to start for the CB-talentless Saints. And yes, he's played well. Except for giving-up the game-winning TD against the Redskins a couple weeks ago. SQUAWK!" Asking any corner to cover Santana Moss in man for 7 seconds... yeah. That doesn't work too well, even if it is Porter. Usama Young is a Second Year top 70 pick from 2007 and Porter beat both him and, yeah, expensive FA Jason David - go ahead and laugh there, David does sukk. Young has a lot of talent but is not Porter. David proved to be a bust LAST year, i.e. before Porter arrived. And Young didn't show enough to warrant considering him for a starting spot, hence the Saints drafted Porter in the 2nd round (Young was a 3rd rounder in 2007). The Saints' only real move to improve the secondary, outside of drafting Porter, was bringing-in the inconsistent Randall Gay from the Patriots. So again, Porter didn't have to compete with much and was given the lion's share of PT with the starters in camp as a result. But as I acknowledged, he's been playing well. "McKelvin OTOH hasn't needed to start" Leodis has been BURNED when he has PLAYED. Who cares about starting. Porter is great at coverage and vastly better than Leodis, starting or not. He's barely played because he's buried on the depth chart. And in his most extensive action, yesterday, he played well. "Porter is so great a punt returner, they're not even using him there." The Saint FO needs to have Reggie Bush do that, or they look ever dumber for taking him, because Reggie Bush as an NFL feature back is a total failure, just as TFG and ONLY TFG said BEFORE the NFL Draft of 2006... So the Saints' FO was dumb for taking Bush with the 2nd overall pick, but smarter than the Bills' FO for drafting Porter. Okay.

Captain Quint Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 He lost the game for them against the Redskins. He doesn't return kicks or punts. He has 20 tackles in 4 games, 1 int, and 3 PD's. To put that in perspective, McGee has 5 PD and 2 ints with 15 tackles and he's considered an average corner. And McGee hasn't lost a game for the Bills. I'll take Leodis who has 10 kickoff returns for 277 yds and actually helps his team win games, not lose them. But wait, who is the better returner? Would you say that Porter is the better returner because he hasn't returned a kick yet? Where does that stem from? Oh thats right, the front office needs Bush to start....
drunkenirishmann Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 Don't feed the trolls. It's obvious what ever facts you point out he will just ignore them and bash the FO for no coherent reason.
LaDairis Posted September 29, 2008 Author Posted September 29, 2008 maybe the fact that porter's IQ is on par with peat moss had something to do with his non-selection OK, OK, so maybe his 4 on the Wonderlic test indicates that inverse correlation between football and intelligence. But then, it doesn't always work that way. Vandy is 4-0 and on top in the SEC right now. If you want to find SMART football players in the SEC, you can check out Vandy, and.... well... JUST VANDY. How did Peters do on the Wonderlic? How smart is Neon Deion? If he stays out of trouble, even a Wonderlic 4 can understand a man coverage assignment.

Throwing darts against the wall, some will land in the bullseye. And some will, well, Leodis... Porter would be the best corner on the Bills by a mile right now. The issue is TALENT ASSESSMENT, and the incredible anger, jealousy, dishonesty and denial some have here over the truth of the issue...

Yeah, resort to substanceless one-liners and lie...

McGee has 5 PD's and 2 ints and 15 tackles compared to Porter who has 3 and 1 and 20.
