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

few things piss me off as a Bills fan although basically everything should...this was an opportunity to improve our team and we blew it...unless we're gunna get Jared Gaither or not sold on Brown returning to tip-top shape (which i'm sure could be true) then we better be confident in what we have!! otherwise this is pathetic

Brown was nothing special to begin with, and his injury may be something he never gets over. Pass.
Now this will piss me off! Why the hell wouldn't the Bills try to get him?
Every time a trade happens in the league everyone just assumes we did absolutely nothing. I'm not sure where in the two line report that info was hidden.
OMG!!!! THE SAINTS ARE GOING TO PLAY A GUY AT LEFT TACKLE THAT WAS A FOURTH ROUND PICK AND ONLY PLAYED IN THREE GAMES PRIOR TO 2009???? WHAT A BUNCH OF DUMBASSES!!!
how annoying is it that they would get him after just drafting trent williams in the draft too... must be nice to have jamal brown as a RT and back up LT.. effing aholes.

According to PFT, the skins are essentially moving down a bit in the draft to get this young tackle. Seems like we coulda had him? He may not be the best tackle in the league, but I am willing to bet he could beat out anyone on our line right now....

I guess Schefter is saying that they'd play Brown at LT and Williams at RT.

That's not what I read. The Redskins are, no matter what, giving up a 3rd and 4th rounder in 2011. However, depending on how McNabb does, the 3rd rounder may go to Philly or NO. If McNabb does really well, the 3rd will go to Philly, and the 4th will go to NO. If not, NO will get the 3rd and Philly gets the 4th. The Skins will receive a conditional late-rounder from NO, but will also owe NO a conditional 2012 6th rounder if Brown does really well.
If you want to call it moving down, sure, but they're essentially moving down from the 3rd and 4th rounds to just a single pick in the later rounds.
It's a price we definitely could have paid. Considering Buffalo was never rumored to have shown interest in Brown, you have to wonder how fit he is medically. I remember last year when everyone raved about the great Philadelphia Eagles OL, yet most of them ended up having injury or performance issues. We'll see.

They just drafted an LT in the second round of this past draft-- Charles Brown. Oh, and they already won a Super Bowl just a few months ago-- which is more than Buffalo has won, ever. So they can tear the team down for all I care.

Well, consider the fact that Buffalo could've easily had their other pick, Trent Williams, with a trade of their #9 and a second for the 'Skins' #4, but by their own admission were too busy looking to trade down instead. This is a pattern. They clearly think that Bell and Meredith are NFL caliber left tackles (see, for instance, the list of other missed opportunities for getting a better LT that I mentioned in another thread).
Like I said before, just give it up, folks. This team has shown every indication that it wants one of these as their left tackle:
I was hoping we would grab this guy... but Its ok I guess
We better hope Spiller is crazy quick. He's gonna need to speed to get WAY outside before the DE does
