That's all I think the Bills are from being a legitimate playoff contender.
1- A REAL Defensive Tackle.
2- A cornerback that ISN'T a HUGE question mark.
3- A #2 WR who doesnt average 8.2 yards per catch (and Josh Reed isn't the answer either)
These are the only three things in my mind that keeps us from being a playoff team.
I'm no fan of Kelsay or Langston Walker; but admittedly we could do worse and they're not going to lose us games. I can't stand Robert Royal either, but his role nor any TE on this team isn't make-or-break.
The rest of the team is playoff-worth now.
* Losman to Evans is nearly as good as it gets.
* Lynch and Wright are going to be a sick "thunder and lightning" combo.
* I like our safeties.. alot
* Our DE's get after the quarterback.
* A lot of young talent, especially on the defensive side.
* A solid left side of the OL to build a ground game around.
* After talking to people who've been watching him closely, Poz is winning me over as a Middle linebacker.
Don't know if I should be excited that for 2008 we're only these three players away; or pissed at Ralph Wilson for not spending the money at these three spots to solidify the team NOW.
