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

Peter King says the Bills are the #1 canidate for Lito.
Re: Peter King says the Bills are the #1 canidate for Lito.
I'm worried about his durability, but also his demand for a new contract.
I assume we will swap 1st rd picks with the Eagles for Lito. Hopefully if we add any pick to the deal it is a day 2 pick. I don't feel anyone needs to give the Eagles more then a swap of 1st rd picks for Lito because the Eagles want him off their books.
It does hgelp our CB situation, and we still get to draft our WR etc...
Re: Peter King says the Bills are the #1 canidate for Lito.
Dont see it happening! Ralph doesn't want to pay CB's alot of money and that is the main reason why Lito and the Eagles are prepared to part ways. If we trade for Lito a contract will have to be in place and something tells me Lito will not settle for anything less than what Asanti Samuel got especially since he is a Pro Bowl CB! Darwin Walker all over again IMO.
Re: Peter King says the Bills are the #1 canidate for Lito.
If the trade was to include a new contract, a fair one...plus only a swap of 1st rounders...and Devin Thomas or Malcolm Kelly are there at #19, I would love it!
Re: Peter King says the Bills are the #1 canidate for Lito.
Dont like it that much anymore given Sheppard's contract demands, durability concerns, and I dont know that I wouldn't ask for another late round pick.
COMING SOON...

Re: Peter King says the Bills are the #1 canidate for Lito.
Dont get me wrong I would love to have Lito, but I dont want the FO to pay him 7+ mill a year to have him. If he wants to play on his current contract then maybe but I doubt that. Does anyone know how long he has left on his contract?
Re: Peter King says the Bills are the #1 canidate for Lito.
I like Sheppard a lot.... But Id like to see a link to this news.
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.
Re: Peter King says the Bills are the #1 canidate for Lito.
I think he's looking more for stability then a big contract. I'm not buying that he's looking for big money just because of a couple random reports especially since he seems more sensible then that.
I like this scenario because it gives us a ready to play CB and makes sure we don't have to reach for a WR by swapping picks. DRC is already on the roster in the form of AY so we can't afford to invest in another "flash in the pan" underclassman.
Re: Peter King says the Bills are the #1 canidate for Lito.
I like this move a ton if we are only swapping picks. What do we lose? 8 draft spots? Big deal. There isn't a clear cut favorite at #11 anyways and Lito can only improve the defense even more. I would assume that the FO would have a contract ready. I don't think they would make the trade and let the Darwin Walker situation happen again. Get it done ahead of time like the Chiefs and Vikings did.
I also doubt Devin Thomas would be available at 19 and that sucks. I want him on the team. But if another WR like Kelly, Sweed, or Hardy is there I say make the trade and pick them up. This seems to me like a win-win situation.
