    I think we ought to consider a 2 x TE offence. I think Graham stands out at TE from the rest

    At RG, there are several players who can come in and contribute

      I dunno....I think a TE with skill has been wanted since Riemersma's stellar year,,,and Metzelaars before that....I think Royals is usable until we fix the major weaknesses like NT,guard etc etc...

      But Graham would be nice....

        Fairchild is going to be looking for another dynamic duo at receiver like he had in St. Louis. He has half of it with Evans. He will also be looking for an all-purpose RB and a receiving FB. Graham would be an excellent addition and would bring something to his offense that he never really had in STL.

            I don't see anything special about him. His best season was 38 catches and 409 yards .... three years ago.

            This year his numbers were about the same as Royal. If we sign him, fine, but it's nothing to get excited about. And G, DL, LB and CB are much higher priorities.

              I'm interested in seeing how Cieslak works out @ FB...Remember what a TC beast he was? He had a couple of passes outta the backfield againstthe Ravens lined up as FB...Sheltons days are past...

                Robert Royal has really turned it on in the last half of the season - I think I'd make a big name TE a non-need and address the more urgent ones like DT and LB (if Fletcher-Baker leaves) - I'd also rather just draft a CB, WR, and a TE, and go after DT, LB, and G in the FA.

                  I'd like to see DT and RG addressed in FA. If that happens, I'd like to see MLB Patrick Willis in the 1st round, TE Zach Miller in the 2nd round, and a CB in the 3rd round.

                  If the Bills have FA's in mind, I'd come out with both guns blazing and sign guys early/quickly. That way you leave less needs for the draft and can draft for depth/future need.

                      i think finding a really good TE should also be a priority for the Bills. JP needs an outlet.

                        With the impending loss of Fletcher, clements and the fact that Willis is the only RB signed for 2007 I think targeting the TE position as #1 is slightly beyond ridiculous.

                          I've been advocating Ceislak or Neufeld at FB for weeks. I'd also like to slash Josh Reed at WR/RB... Especially if we get a #2 WR.

                          IMO we would be equally adept at running or passing.

                          However, I gotta go with LB Adalius Thomas as my #1 free agent priority.

                            EXACTLY! That's been my target all along. I hope that Patrick was talking with him and convincing him to come here at the Bills/Titans game, like he did with Takeo and others.

                              i dont think its ridiculous what is most important thing for this bills team to do?

                              create a legit and viable offense for right now we do not have that on a consistent basis. we had flashes of it last year.

                              a legit threat at TE creates more space for everyone on offense.

                              TE MAY NOT BE THE #1 priority of the BILLS

                              but it should be very close to the top.
