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

We noted last week that the Vikings have interest in not just Kalil but also Oklahoma State’s Justin Blackmon and LSU’s Morris Claiborne, and ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported on SportsCenter this morning that the interest from the Vikings in all three of those players is very real. The word out of Minnesota is that the Vikings have not decided to take Kalil, contrary to what has been believed.
USC left tackle Matt Kalil has been tied to the Vikings with the third pick in the NFL draft for so long that hardly anyone has even stopped to think about where Kalil might go if the Vikings don't draft him.
Last year, we dreamed and it came true. Is it totally inconceivable this time?

I don't see him sliding all the way to the Bills, but if he slides as far as Tampa, I think the Bucs would be happy to trade their pick to the Bills, especially if Clayborne is off the board.

Buffalo knows that Tampa wont take Kalil though.
But they might want to get out of that spot though.
That would suck for TB if Richardson and Claiborne are gone. These are the 2 guys that the Bucs want.
They are looking to move back a couple of spots and pick up an extra pick or two. Minnesota may not end up taking Kalil, but he probably won't last past five if that's the case.

I can't see the Rams passing on Kalil in that mock, I also can't see the Phins taking DeCastro over Tannehill. Yet I'd love to be wrong.

Everyone seems to think they're in love with Fletcher, and i think everyone knows that its defintly not set in stone that Kalil wont be there. But with everyone still bring up him sliding, and how much STL loves Fletcher. I think the big news is that no one has mentioned Kalil with Stl at all. It seems like no matter what its Fletcher, Richardson, or Blackmon. I dont think Kalil is in there sites. With Miami, if they get Tannehill there set back another few years again in my opinion. With DeCastro, theyre taking a step forward. The last really good pick they had was on Long, and i cant see the Dolphins reaching on another prospect.
Not here to be right, just here to have interesting discussions about my impulsive opinions
Trade up to #5 if he's there and I would be in heaven... especially if we could get them to take a 2013 2nd as the other piece in the deal. I'd be tempted to give them this year's 2nd if it would get it done. IMO getting Kalil would leave us without a glaring weakness. We could get CB/WR/LB/TE help in the 3rd, 4th and 5th and I really think we're at least above average everywhere else. If the opportunity presents itself, jump on it!

Teams reach all the time when the idea of "franchise QB" is part of the arguement. Yet I've always said the first word in that phrase is franchise. In other words build the franchise and then you can find a QB.
Jason Smith restructured his contract with the Rams. Making less money this year, but in '13 he's set to make 11m, they can cut him before the start of the '13 season and not pay a dime.

Now that we are in the home stretch this is the time i believe no rumors about sliding rising players and deals being made
Last year, for most of draft season, the consensus seemed to be that Denver would take Dareus No. 2.
Then like a week before the draft, the buzz broke that they were targeting Miller. And they did.
So that's why I'm not dismissing this. I'm not counting on it of course.
