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

Re: Who is your biggest bust and biggest plus Bill??
Bust=Edwards
Alot hyping surrounding a guy who showed that he has tons to still learn last year. A lot of people are counting on him to lead us over the hump, Im not sure he is ready yet.
Plus=Johnson
Under the radar DT with big time pass rush ability could be a better DT pickup than Stroud when all is said and done.
COMING SOON...

Re: Who is your biggest bust and biggest plus Bill??
Bust = K. Mitchell
Plus = McKelvin
I think people are overhyping Mithcell because of a good game against the Bills and Pats in the Super Bowl! IMO there's a reason this guy is on his 3rd team in 3 years.
McKelvin will be our #1 CB by midseason IMO. Jauron has a habit of making us believe that a vet will be starting in place of our 1st rd pick(he has done this the past 2 seasons) only to have to #1 pick starting on opening day or the next!
Re: Who is your biggest bust and biggest plus Bill??
Bust=Schobel. The guy doesn't earn his paycheck or live up to the hype. He has no inside move and is essentially an outside speed-rusher, although he isn't very fast.
Plus=McCargo. I know- I was hard on him at this time last year and never thought I'd be saying this, but now he's playing next to Stroud and Johnson instead of Tripplett and Anderson. I really think this could be a breakout year for him.

I dont have any stellar outlook for Mitchell, he is a pretty solid guy who wont wow anyone but seems to get the job done. Havent watched film on him or anything but he seems to be around the ball alot, is a solid in run support, and is an upgrade over Ellison. I just dont think he has that BUST factor because I personally dont expect him to have 150 tackles, 10 sacks and 5 picks, just be better than Ellison.
Re: Who is your biggest bust and biggest plus Bill??
Bust = Kyle Williams.
He can't anchor. Pray for a healthy Stroud.
Plus = McKelvin
I saw film of him last fall & realized he was a rare talent. The Senior Bowl practices confirmed my opinion he could start immediately. I haven't seen recognition & closing skills in such a young CB since Darryl Green in 1983.
Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit
Re: Who is your biggest bust and biggest plus Bill??
Bust - Schobel: Never been impressed with him. Anytime I key in what he is doing, it involves him over pursuing and just getting pushed out of the play. Garbage time sacks are his specialty.
Plus - Hardy: I believe with this guy being our only big target, he will get plenty of work in and become more and more of a solid target throughout the season.
Re: Who is your biggest bust and biggest plus Bill??
I could see both Whitner and K Williams being busts. Whitner has yet to live up to the hype of being the #8 pick and rarely gets his hands on the ball. Granted, he hasn't had a lot of help from the FS spot or pressure on the QB, but this year those excuses should go away. Time to put up or shut up.
Williams played surprisingly well for a rookie in his first season, but was useless last season. Hopefully it was a sophomore slump and he'll rebound- but it could go either way.
If Stroud stays healthy, he won't be a bust, but that's a big "if".
Re: Who is your biggest bust and biggest plus Bill??
Bust- Edwards
Despite that i think he is the answer this year he has bust written all over him if things don't go right but hopefully they do
Plus- Spencer Johnson/ McCargo
This guy flew under the radar in Minnesota and i think he will be very good for us on the Dline and i think McCargo is ready to take a step up from last year
I feel a win streak coming and a Bills Playoff Run!!!
Re: Who is your biggest bust and biggest plus Bill??
Bust - Trent Edwards: I was excited for him during his rookie campaign, however his knick for getting knacked up still has me very concerned with his longterm viability in Buffalo.
Plus - Freddy Jackson: At times he was our most exciting player on offense last year, so I look for Buffalo to use him some more this year. Everytime I saw Freddy with the ball he was breaking off some nice runs and he ran really pretty.
