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!
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

Why does everyone seem to think we need to replace Prioleau?
I'd be willing to give Prioleau another crack at FS, but IMHO he is a very good SS, if undersized for the position and therefore an injury waiting to happen. However if the Bills can obtain a proven FS, I would have to say go for it.

We have more pressing needs than to go after a proven FS. PP wont tear it up...But he'll get the job done.
Remember when he laid out McAffrey? They both laid on the field for a few minutes if I remember right. That was a HUGE, clean hit. McAffrey didn't drop the ball, tho that wasn't PP's fault.
It never hurts to see what is available. I like Prioleau, he's a hard hitter, but average talent. He should get better IF the Bills address the DL. Sifting through FA talent isn't necessarily a bad thing. If we can't get any immediate assistance on the DL it wouldn't be a bad idea to bring in a shutdown saftey like Lassiter for a year or two.
free safeties need to bring into's. he didnt do that. he has never done that. we need a ballhawk for at least passing downs. pp is good and should be kept, but if he cant get the into's we need to bring in a guy off the bench who will. pp and coy gave up too many big plays, we need a guy looking for into's.
he's just not a good coverage free safety. I mean I'm glad he can hit hard, but we gave up a lot of big plays last year. No INTs, as a free safety that is a little bothersome. I think we need an upgrade. maybe ther are other positions we need to upgrade more, but i think this is a spot than can be upgraded. Especialy if we get Adams, this wil be the weak spt on the D
What about Winfield? 0 INTs yet no one is jumping over his case. In fact, people are saying the pass rush (as I stated above) is the reason he had no INTs. Could that not be the same for Prioleau?
On Coy - SS's in the 46 dont cover too much...They play close to the line...And he was only a rookie last year...He has alot of upside, and can play the run pretty well.
ur comparing pp to winfield? bottom line is the bills need more into's, so who would u rather replace pp or winfield? pp is decent but if u can upgrade in the second round, y not do it? believe me no teams are really scared of our safeties and they will attack them more now that it will be tougher to run against the bills. right now safety is our weakest spot on defense so y not upgrade? we have 7 picks, what other position needs more attention than s on the bills besides dline?
