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

Quickly think of the top ten WR’s you would name in the NFL in no particular order. That’s exactly what we did here over the past day in an effort to gauge where people would rank the best of the best and figure out where our own emerging star at WR sat.

Now the guy who wrote this is talking some sense and is saying exactly what I have been saying.
Stevie is right now in the 12-15 range of receivers with more room to improve on that.
We drafted him, developed him and he has become a bright spot on a dull team. Pay him and let him grow in this offense and if we can get better play from Fitz or get a better QB and a more legit #2WR and TE he can really take off and become one of the most productive in the game.

We need another WR on the outside, Im not as worried about whose #1 and whose #2 as I am in finding a WR who can work deep, has good size, and can help take some attention away from Stevie.
I also want a burner in the slot who can take the top off the coverage.

DB sounds good, problem is if Fitz is are QB for years we dont need a guy that is going to run deep on the sideline....But I hear what you are saying and agree.........
By the way I want (3) hot 20 year old girls under my tree on Sunday too....
I do like Michael Floyd in the 1st round.......I know you have some say about him.,.....

Fitz isn't the QB so I'm not worried about that.
Yea you and me both buddy.
I do too and have no issue going WR in the first round for the record. A lot will depend on where we end up picking. I'll have a new mock out on Tuesday.

I dont think Fitz will be here either.
I think Stevie gets franchised and they try to work out a deal and Fitz gets let go to save some $$$ to work on Stevie's deal.
I would luv RG3 but it all depends what the teams ahead do.
If RG3 is there for WASH he is gone IMO......
Im pushing for WASH to win out............
WR in the 1st is fine with me along with, OLB/DE, CB, QB.......
I think he deserves to be paid in the top 10-15 range. He is a very good receiver with a journeyman QB throwing to him. We can't let every decent player leave the team. It gets old.
There is no debating that SJ is the most productive receiver the Bills have. To lose him at this point would be a set back.
The point is simple here. Pay him. Doesn't matter if the Bills think he's #1 or not. He is our best current option and the Bills have bigger fish to fry at other positions.
Bottom line is if this team wants to put together a winning team, they are going to have to start paying players.
Opening the check book is the only sure fire way to lure FAs. Once the Bills start consistantly winning, the allure of a winning team then becomes more opportunistic to FAs. Its then the Bills FO can start being more particular with the contract aspect of the game.
Right now the Bills need to focus on bigger issues. Give SJ the money and rid yourself of having to fill yet another team hole. That's not to say they should sign him then forget him. But it takes the pressure off having to look for someone immediately.

I wholeheartidly disagree with the bolded. You don't just pay a guy because he's our best current option. That's how we get locked into guys like Fitz long term.
I have zero option paying Stevie, I just think it should be for less than he's reportedly asking for.

Well, Marcus Easley could be that big fast receiver the Bills need if he can stay healthy. He was looking very good last preseason before getting injured.

So what's your resolution? Let him walk and utilize the poorer talent on the team and take the rick of hitting FA?
My point is that the team already has enough "projects". They cannot afford to hit the FA market in need of every base position. You have to cut your loses somewhere and I don't think the Bills can afford letting SJ go with hopes of drumming up talent eslewhere at that particular position.
This team cannot afford the luxury of being particular. I respectively disagree with you. I think they have to bite the bullet on this one.

I laid out my resolution in the piece. Id pay Stevie but I'm not breaking the bank for him.
Teams can always afford the luxury of being particular.

He's not elite, but he's a solid #1 WR. He's also easily the best WR we've had since Moulds. He actually reminds me quite a bit of a young Moulds...I've said that since that TD he scored in his rookie year...I think it was against Denver.
He may not be the most mature kid in the league, but he embraces the fans, he works hard, and he makes the team better.
