pBills Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Is he really that good? He had the most drops from last year and has been a problem for the Browns lately. I'm not one to care about drops if the receiver can still put up a 1,000 yards and at least 8 TDs. Which he covered two years ago, last year not so much. Only 800+ yards and 3 TDs.

ieatcrayonz Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 This should put to rest any crap reports that the Jets were tampering with Crabtree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Anyone who thinks this ISN'T a game-changing move is a blind homer. Sorry, but that's the facts. Edwards is a monster who is capable of having huge games, especially against our lackluster defense. The best team in the division just got better. Good for them. Bad for us.

Doc Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 I hope he's not ready to play by October 18th. Then again, it might not matter. If only the Bills could trade low draft picks for a real QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For once, I 150% agree with you. It is quite scary that we're not trying crap to get better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webster Guy Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Will you still feel the same if he ends up in jail for a long period of time? Or starts to get regular suspensions? Edwards is a risk, for obvious reasons. I agree with Thurman. Judging the trade now is like grading a draft on the day after it happened before anyone takes a snap. Its pure speculation and nothing more. Edwards is a fun receiver to watch because he has some amazing catches, but as far as productivity and consistency go, that remains to be seen. I have a hunch that Sanchez is going to continue to lose his effectiveness as teams get more film on him and start seeing defensive gameplans that work against him (like Gregg's last week).

Last two seasons 800+ yards and 1,200+ yards. He moves the chains and since we don't we know how that helps out. You know, I was looking at available FA's to see who the Bills could target if they actually did want to do something. Problem is what the hell do they need? OL - Yes, TE - Yes, LB's - Yes... it's to long of a list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerball Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 but they still have a rookie QB who is going to have problems over the course of the season. Thank you Baby Jesus that the Bills don't have that worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bingo, anybody that has watched Sanchez thru college should know this guy is not that good & has bust written all over. This guy could not even beat out John David Booty for the starting job & then heading into his junior year he was in a very tight battle with the spring practice with 2 other qbs. I will go right out say this guy is going to have a worse career then Matt Leinart & by no means do I think Leinart is going to have a good career. Watched alot of the Jets/saints game sunday. Sanchez singlehandily lost that game for the jets & anybody that says different is lying. Your going to see more games like that this year. Would not be surprised at all if the Jets lose to Miami this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerball Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Cue the fans who say we can't compete because we won't spend. Of course that ignores that PIT, IND, SD, NO and MIN are also small markets. Your argument escapes me. You are waiting for fans to complain because the Bills won't spend $ (not sure if cash to cap is used elsewhere) then you point to successful small market franchises. What are you trying to say? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBill Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 He has the talent to make them much better but he has lacked consistency. It is sad to see the Jets and NE* work to get better every year while the Bills languish in their own cesspool of crap. I hate to say it but we may go 0-6 again in the division.

Coach Klein Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 So the good news is we don't have a number one reciever to cover this week. The bad news is we have to cover him the week after? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would not be surprised at all if the Jets lose to Miami this week. Fins could quite possibly beat Jets this week. That is because they are a much beter team than their record currently indicates. Disagree about Sanchez. Sure he will make some rookie mistakes. IMO he will also quickly develop into a very good starting QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pBills Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 All we can hope for that both the Jets and Pats lose. Either way, the Bills HAVE to their act together NOW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
