All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

I finally got a reply from Chris Brown about Schobel's weight and Michael Turner....

I think way too much is being made about the player weights. It's early in the offseason. Let's see what guys weigh at camp before blowing a gasket on this.
I'm not ruling out a Turner deal on draft weekend. Moods tend to change during the draft, when a player one team was looking to get suddenly disappears.
Re: I finally got a reply from Chris Brown about Schobel's weight and Michael Turner....
Hmmm, that Turner info is exactly what I was thinking. I believe that the Bills are hoping and praying that they will be able to get Adrian Peterson somehow, either trade up a few spots or hope he falls to them. If he doesn't, they will draft a linebacker at #12, and then call the Chargers with an offer for Michael Turner officially.

That's exactly how I'd handle this if I were the Bills.

Here's my letter.....
Mr. Brown,
Hey. I'm sorry to bother you, but I gotta know this. A bunch of people are panicking on my Bills site, BillsZone.com about Aaron Schobel's new listed weight. Is that a misprint? Or did he really weigh in as 243 lbs? If he did, why on Earth would the staff want to screw with something that worked? He was 262 lbs last year and was a pro bowler. Isn't 19 lbs a lot of weight to lose? I looked around and noticed that the average cover2 defensive end is 260 or a little higher. Aaron Schobel was at the perfect weight. I don't understand this one bit. Please help me out here. I'd love to know what you are thinking. Also, anything on Michael Turner? A bunch of fans on my site want him to come here, myself included. I'd give a 2nd rounder to the chargers for him in a heartbeat. What do you think it's going to take? Thanks for taking the time out to read this and hopefully reply.

I think what happens is the exact opposite. Adrian Peterson will fall to us and we call up SD and say hey if we pick up Peterson then you're stuck with Turner this year and get ZERO for him after the season. Or you can trade with Tennessee but their picks are lower than ours. So convince us that we want to pick a linebacker instead.

I think both Peterson and Turner are pipe dreams.
Marv isn't trading up to get AP.
Marv isn't trading a 1st rounder for Turner.
I read somewhere that Smith lowered the demands to a 2nd this year and a conditional third next year. Not sure if its true or not. It does seem that the Titans are more the aggressor then Buffalo however Buffalo picks earlier in the draft so Buffalo probably is the team Smith would rather trade with.

You didn't read this, you dreamt it. If this was what SD wanted Turner would already be in a Bills uni.

Now, I really don't like Chris Brown. The answer to your question Mikey was "don't worry about it"
Well I've worked out my whole life and adding 19 pounds of muscle prior to this season starting is all but impossible. He didn't answer your question because there isn't a good one.
Had he come in at 284 I would have not thought twice about it. He was a lean player at 264. He wasn't carrying any body fat so this is an issue. Period.
