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

Jason Peters, OT, Bills -- Peters is one of the rising stars in the NFL. A converted tight end who came into the league as a true project, Peters has already blossomed into a solid offensive tackle in Buffalo. The scary part is he may not be done improving -- a rough proposition for opposing defenders.
Donte Whitner, S, Bills -- He may have been a rookie, but he sure didn't play that way. Despite being derided for taking Whitner as high as they did in the draft (eighth overall), the Bills laughed last as Whitner instantly became the team's top defensive back in '06. The rookie notched 104 total tackles and an interception, and he'll look to improve on those numbers in 2007.
Can you imagine the shape our OL would be in right now had we taken him? He was on the board at 26.. damn
Nick Mangold, C, Jets -- As a rookie he stepped right in for the departed Kevin Mawae at center and the team didn't miss a beat. While fellow top pick D'Brickashaw Ferguson had his ups and downs at tackle, Mangold was as solid as a rock in the middle. He looks like a fixture at the spot for at least the next 12 years.
Jason Peters and Dockery are going to be NASTY on that left side. If Walker gets his head on straight Buffalo's line has a chance to be pretty decent. Only time will tell.

Yep. Sacks will only be hindered by missed blocks...

yeah dude. Peters, Dockery, Mangold would be as a good as it gets, I'd put that up against any left side in the league. Hopefully McCargo shows up big this year so we can end the hindsight game.
Wake up, brush your teeth, and get ready for a day of hating the Dolphins. Or the Pats? How to choose?
Whitner is uber football smart. I saw him many times moving up behind the front 7, calling formations and moving players around. I don't regret that pick for a second. They should cut him loose more and let him run.

He was an UDFA. It is embarassing he is starting for this team. There is no way the Bills can win with Jason Peters starting.
Understood your sarcasm..
However, does the fact that Peters was a diamond in the rough take away from the fact that Mike Williams was a discraceful draft pick and hindered the team's development when the pick could've been used in a number of other spots?
I know sarcastically your referring to the POZ/ DiGorgio talk.. And let me ask you this.. If DiGorgio becomes the next Brian Urlacher and POZ ends up a mediocre player.. Does that make the POZ pick excusable because DiGorgio turned out to be a Pro Bowler?

The DiGiorgio talk has nothing to do with how Pos is doing. If anything, it would make the Pos pick better because we got someone who can play inside or outside.
Judge Pos on his own merits, not on any talk about DiG.

wow.. TWO Bills?!??!?!
Why is that surprising? The Bills have some very, very good young talent. All they need is experience and they will get better. It just may not be as quick as everybody would like.

You didn't hear? Levy is an 80 something year old idiot who knows nothing about football.//sarcasm Levy has forgotten more about football than anyone on this board currently knows. I'm not saying the guy is perfect, because nobody in this business is. But for the love of christ, let the talent develop before you stake him to the cross. I know that this team has been in rebuild mode for some time now, but Levy is not to blame for the past 7 years.
