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!

"Fully healthy since late December, Easley enters the 2011 campaign much like a rookie having never suited up for Buffalo. Hixon however, believes the tall and speedy wideout is better equipped than the average rookie this year."
I think he will be a great weapon to have when 1st downs are needed. I don't expect a ton of catches this year, but expect some big ones that keep drives alive.
Goes without saying he's raw but this was the key comment that makes one hope.
What Easley showed that convinced Hixon and other members of Buffalo’s offensive staff that big things are possible was his uncanny knack in getting behind the defense for big plays in practices through the spring and early summer last year.
Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit
I think this board has a bad habit of getting man-crushes on guys who haven't proven anything.
He has a lot of potential, but potential is just a fancy way of saying "he hasn't done **** yet." If they gave trophies for potential, the Bills would win every year. It's realizing that potential where we fail.

I'll second that.
Also, with the lockout I can't get excited about anybody.
For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.

Man crushes? all people are saying is they think this kid could be good sheesh man relax
I hate to say it, but I'm actually kind of glad he was put on IR last season. Him being on the bench while Nelson, D. Jones and Naaman got some playing time really made it so he's expendable/needs to prove that a kid that young who hasn't seen a down in the NFL needs to prove something.
Freak of nature? Physical specimen? Great, but when the billionaire/millionaires want to figure out where they spend their money, I'll be waiting to see where he ends up. I hope the kid pans out so that Johnson/Evans/Parrish/Easely can be a great looking receiving corp, but the guy needs to play a down and prove he's better than Nelson and Jones.

Well, a segment of this board has a bad habit of blaming this front office for failures of the past that they had no part of.

Sounds like he could be be for us what Chris Henry was for the Bengals.
