Re: Ok what about OLB, TE, DE, and Guard
i think june or peterson will be brought in by the end of the week for our LB position. TE and DE are obviously going to be solved high in the draft and its really the best way to go because there is no available free agents at either position worth spending money on compare to what we could get in the draft. now guard, if we dont trade of waters, simmons is our guy, he hasnt signed with another team and hasnt been on any other visits and we went as far as to give him a physical when he was here. he is a risk high reward guy and will come cheap since he is coming off of injury and can compete with chambers. also i wouldnt be surprisd if we did trade for waters that we still signed a guy like simmons just so we are not thin on the line like we were last year. we will take a interior lineman somewhere in the draft as well, this is such a deep class at Center we can actually get a really good center in the 4th round this year.

Originally posted by patmoran2006I think the Bills had a plan of LB, G, 3rd RB, Backup QB, C and WR via free agency,and I think they're going to stick to it.

Peterson is visiting elsewhere according to PFT, and 'couldn't agree terms' with the Bills. I think it's unlikely he will sign with us now.
June or Keiaho are the most likely guys we will get tbh, and Keiaho is probably favourite due to price and age.
There are still any number of vet. RBs out there, and I wouldn't be too surprised if they didn't try and bring someone else in. Jones may have been a really good signing if he was back fully fit, and it's no real surprise that they tried quite hard to get him. Depending on what sort of money they are after, I now get the feeling that they may look to an older vet ( like Taylor was), who can still be productive for a few carries down the road, while helping shoulder the load with Jackson when Lynch inevitably serves a suspension. Maybe a guy like Warrick Dunn for example.
Guard is now the #1 'need' as far as I'm concerned. (I actually think they will sign another LB fairly soon, as I think they've mostly done their 'looking').
Simmons could well be someone they actually have said that they are interested in, but can't realistically do anything about, until he's actually 100% fit. It might be that they have told him they will make him an offer, as soon as that is the case. Another guy who could be good if actually back 100% is Bentley. The problem there I think, is that the guy isn't going to be taking a 'suck it and see' deal, and his previous injury history has to be a serious concern. Waters could be a great move, but we aren't going to hear much more about that (unless Pat gets more info from his 'sources'), until it either happens or doesn't. I'm not too sure who else is out there who actually is that good tbh.

Originally posted by DBrown77Hmm.... i could see the following:
OLB - Ellison
TE- Fine
DE - Kelsey
Guard - Chambers
I think Ellison is a fantastic coverage LB and should be in on most 3rd/2nd and long situations.
Kelsay... well I'd rather see Ryan Denney.
Guard, wouldn't mind Chambers actually until we can mold a new guy in to the role
TE: I've said it a thousand times. We have two GREAT 2nd tight ends in a 2 tight end spread. That's the draft need I say we need the most, but definitley not Pettigrew in round one unless it's a trade back.
Now back to the real world...
OLB, I agree that we see Cato coming in a few days and that means case closed for LB'ers
DE, if Denney stays healthy I honestly believe we'll do better than last year. Also, send Poz and Kawika on those jailbreak's and let Schobel wreak some havoc. Freshen up Ellis and get a good guy in the draft.
TE is a second or third round snag
LG is the opposite of whatever we go TE wise.
I like my draft below vvvBye Bye Brady...
