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

With all this talk about TG I am wondering if everyone has given up on Royal. He is on track to shatter last years numbers. He is a tough as nails TE who can block and get open in the middle for the tough yards that's expected of TEs.
The TE position is one of the toughest in the game and Royal seems to be getting his groove now. Why disrupt this with Gonzales?
Just throwing this out there for discussion.
When I die, please don't let my wife sell my camera equipment for what I told her I paid for it.
Royal is doing much better this year. Bringing in TG is extra better..but I don't think he's coming here. Royal has come a long way and people got mad at that one play so they want him gone.
I didn't come here to fight, I hate fighting. Life is way too short to spend it on fighting! Go fight with yourself, one of you will eventually win!
Given up on Royal? Doesn't that mean that you had high hopes for him at some point in time? This guy is average...at best! He brings nothing to the table, thus this is why so many people would love to get Gonzo.
Royal is the classic case of a very good #2 and a mediocre #1. As a #2, he brings blocking ability and leadership as well as the ability to be an occassional receiver.

I still haven't given up on Royal just yet but he's been an above average blocking TE and a sub-avg receiving TE for most of his career. If anything, Royal needs someone like TG to help mentor him in the passing game so that he can become a complete TE. Either way, there's no doubt Royal is essentially still finding his way.
TE depth obviously isn't the greatest either. We have Royal and two very raw prospects. If we add TG, I think Royal will thrive in the #2 spot and Schouman and Fine will benefit from watching one the best pass catching TE's in NFL history.
the odd mistake? Are you kidding me? Royal cost us at least two games over the last few years- he missed the block on Freeney that led to a fumble and couldn't keep his feet in bounds on that TD catch (I think it was against Tennessee). This guy makes a TON of mistakes at the worst possible times and has consistently proven that he does NOT keep his head in the game. He's neither a blocking TE nor a receiving TE because he's mediocre at both. The guy is another one of Marv's 2nd tier free agents who can't get the job done.
Are we really even discussing this? TG is an instant upgrade over Royal. I'm not saying the Bills should give up too much to get him, but this one's not even close.
Royal is garbage. Period. He can't block, can't catch, can't keep his feet in bounds. When he does manage to catch the ball, he fumbles it carelessly. I can honestly say that anyone who defends Robert Royal as a Bill is either related to him, or Robert Royal himself.
