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

Jabar Gaffney has been released.
I would grab him. He can't hurt, and while I love a Cinderella story, it would be nice to have a real NFL receiver in the mix.
Shanny is a wicked genius, though, and if he doesn't want Gaffney, he couldn't be any good...could he?
We won't quite do that, but I'd be very surprised if we didn't find a guy like Gaffney to come in for this year.
We might have got a 'burner' in the draft, but while I'm not desperately worried about the WR corps, there should be no doubt it could be upgraded, and an experienced guiy like Gaffney, who has pretty consistent production, might well be the type of upgrade they would look for - for this year at least.
Note, I wouldn't envision such a signing as being on anything more than a two year deal tops, but I do see it happening with someone.

All the FA receivers suck...they got nothing on Marcus Easley and Kamar Aiken.
I don't give a **** if guys like Gaffney and Jones do suck...let them prove it in camp, and if Hagen, Ruvell Martin, and Roosevelt can beat them...they have the job.
31 is hardly washed up, and what would it hurt to get a guy that has caught balls in the NFL on the roster? Give him a one year deal, and get the "long term" guy next year. We obviously couldn't fit a WR into the plans thus far, so we take a flyer on a guy like Gaffney.
I would rather have Jones, too, for what it is worth. It is also funny how the part about "he's no good because the Redskins released him" was just ignored. Shannahan is a genius with Elway playing QB, but has shown to be a reactionary coach with personel, who can't seem to win football games.
The "they would keep him for RGIII" is romantic, but the guy did nothing but produce for them last year, they brought in a couple FA's, notably Garcon, and have Santana Moss coming back. I would take either of them over Gaffney...I just wouldn't put the fait of the Buffalo WR core on the back of Donald Jones.
