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!
The Buffalo Bills went into this draft focusing in on the biggest need going into the 2011 season. That need is obtaining as many defensive players that they can early in the draft.
Let’s take a quick look at each pick in rounds one, two, and three.
Good article but you have to let go of your 2 year obsession (Clausen,Tebow,Newton,Gabbert) with QB. Stanzi isn't any better than Fitz and you don't toss away picks with so many needs.
When a good QB is available next April, the Bills will select him but not reach for prospects who don't resemble an NFL starting QB. Since Sam Bradford went #1 last year, the remaining QB pool has been terrible.
I follow the Big 10 and Stanzi has career backup written all over him.
Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit
Great piece T. I hope you're right about Sheppard... would be great to have three day one starters already out of this draft. As for Stanzi, I'm in your corner on that one. He just needs a good coach and a little time.

We have Fitz and Levi Brown on the roster currently. We need to grab a QB in this draft, so why not the best one available at round 4?
I follow the Big 10 as well, and I like Stanzi's game. Do I see him as a can't miss elite QB? No. But he would he a helluva 4th round selection IMO.

I read an article on bleacher report that called Sheppard the best inside LB in the entire draft. They rated his pick an A.

Yeah but remember... I write for Bleacher Report, as do a lot of other yahoos out there. That is as legit as a thread on this site with a well composed opening. That said, I hope he's right!
