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

I don't want to hear about his poor play at times last year either. He was clearly affected by no Training camp.(yes I know that was his own fault) Get him a full TC and he will be dominant again.
Everyone agrees that JPeters should get a raise. But how do you know that the Bills haven't offered him a top 5 OT contract and JP turned it down?
It's possible that JP is so greedy that he is holding out for a contract that makes him the highest paid player at his position. A dollar amount that I don't want the Bills to pay for him. He is a top 10 OT. Not a top 1.

what's your option ? rebuild the OL via the draft ?
Yup. I dont think T.O. all of a sudden makes us a playoff contender. So, with that... Trade JP for a few draft picks and use them all on OL's.
In fact... I'd like, very much, to use every single draft pick this year on nothing but OL's and DL's.
Build for the future!
You trust this staff to know what they're doing in the draft? Do you trust this staff to know how to develop players?
I'd rather risk paying Peters and hope he'll end up getting to what he was in 07 by showing up at camp than let this FO draft players and wait 3-4 years before this staff even turns their TOP draft picks into average players which is what they've proven to do all these years.

the problem with that theory is that it relies on the same Bills FO that has failed to rebuild properly for over a decade- roughly 3 attempts. They're ****ing incompetent.
If we get picks for Peters, they'll do one of two things:
1. Use them to hoarde more CB's and WR's
2. Use them on the next Tim Anderson/John McCargo.
the problem lies in the front office with poor drafting and neglecting the Lines both D and O with backups on other teams we just cant seem to get ahead
Peters is not worth being the top paid OLINeman in the NFL top 5 yes but not the top, and that is the issue
Trade him and use the 11th pick on one of those LTs coming out this yr and with extra picks get ur pass rush
sign a vet to man the RG after moving butler to LG, and draft some depth

.
Our vet OL couldn't even handle AFCE teams that play 3-4 defenses and yet we expect a bunch of rookies to do better?
I expect Rex Ryan to build an aggressive D with the jets and Leonard to give him tips of how the bills play. Not that they need it. Even Stevie Wonder can see whats coming when our O lines up.
