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!
Forked Thread: Once again, this board- Bills top 3 on the draft board??
No, mediocre's about right. You don't get to commit 20 turnovers in 13 games, complete less than 60 percent and still be called good.
According to Jerry Sullivan on WGR this morning, the Bills told Fitz that if a franchise QB was there at 3 they were going to draft him. Also according to Sullivan the Bills draft board was:
1. Newton
2. Dareus
3. Miller/Gabbert
For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.

Once again I want to thank the idiots in Carolina, and Denver for passing on Dareus!

If we had lost Dareus at #2 and then chose Gabbert instead of Miller, my draft grade would have been substantially different!!! I'm so glad things turned out the way they did!!!

Maybe the anti-Newton people can just admit that their opinion of him was not shared by 2 NFL GM's with their job on the line who picked in the top 3.
Not saying that he is a sure thing. But the notion he is a sure bust was conjured out of speculation and amateur psychology of whether they would have a beer with him.

As well as his total lack of experience playing anything that begins to resemble NFL football.
Our opinions' not been shared by NFL GMs plenty of times. And we've been right plenty of times.

If Luck came out Newton most likely would of been a Bill and not Dareus since the Panthers said they would draft Luck if he came out....thank goodness Luck stayed in school.

You know hearing that kinda just rained all over my parade of optimism... this team could still be in trouble. If these boneheads in this front office really thought that highly of Cam Newton, we're in a buttload of trouble.
