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

Despite a widespread belief that running back Marshawn Lynch wants out of Buffalo and that other teams are interested in acquiring him, Bills General Manager Buddy Nix says he expects Lynch to return in 2010.
Might be just GM speak- if he makes it seem like the Bills are desperate to get rid of Lynch, other teams will lowball him with trade offers.
That is a good point. But I truly believe that no one will give up a 2nd round pick considering Marshall was only 2 2nd round picks. So if it's any worse, why bother. He's under contract and does provide good insurance for Freddie. Provided he stops hitting people with cars while having guns in the trunk and stealing $20 bills.
You people that want to run everyone out of town crack me up.
I'm not one of those people. I could go either way with trading Marshawn.
On one hand, the guy can't stay out of trouble, which keeps him off the field, and he wasn't particularly great when he was on the field.
On the other hand, he has shown that he can play well, and if we trade him, then we have yet another hole to fill in the draft.
I don't see any desperate reason to move him, but he shouldn't be untouchable if the right offer comes along. And I think that's where Nix's comments come in. If the team shows some interest in keeping him, any potential trade partners know they'll have to make a really good offer.

I agree. I'd move him for the right price, but don't trade him just to get rid of him. Whether he wants to be here or not, he has no leverage and could still contribute for us. If he really wants to play for another team then the best thing he can do for himself is to show up, play well, and increase his value.

That's the exact reason I don't want to get rid of him as well. We gotta get a line in front of him. I think on paper we could possibly have the best RB combo in the NFL.
Im a Lynch fan as a football player not as a person. And him and Jackson together is what we need but if hes not wanted here and we can get a 2nd or 3rd for him we need to ship him out.
Lynch has no leverage and yes we all think he should show up because it is a new staff he is not required to. But on the other hand he seems to like to get into mischief. And not the good kind either.
So if he wants out that bad he needs to show up and produce. But if he produces the team might win and then that would change everyones attitude so it's a trickle down effect after all.
Personally i would like to see him scrap the Beast Mode thing because lets be honest he has yet to show anything remotely close to Beast Mode.
