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

Seriously? Marrone announced that Fitz and T. Jackson would have an open competition. Looks like it's another year of Fitz since I can't see Jackson beating out Fitz after not playing at all last year.
Everyone that wants the Bills to draft a QB in the 2nd or 3rd rnd what do you expect if the Bills do that? I can pretty much guarantee it will come down to Fitz or TJax if that is the case.

Drafting a player earlier doesn't make him a better player. The only guy that could be ready to start that will be there at 8 (and quite possibily rd 2) is Wilson and I can't get by the tiny hand thing with him. If we draft a project like Manuel in rd 2 we'll just have to deal with another year of crappy QB play.

If you draft a guy at #8, he will be no better than if you draft the SAME guy at #40. The point is you have OPTIONS at #8 that will not be there at #40. All the GOOD QB's will be off the board by #40.

i agree. just take wilson or manuel for christs sake. they have a nice resume
I'm not really buying that Fitz has a legitimate shot at earning the starting job. They already know they can't get anywhere with him and they won't be able to sell tickets. Marrone is just doing the normal thing and telling everyone that they have to earn their spot

And if you draft guys at 8 who should be drafted at 40 while the rest of the NFL drafts guys who are worthy of their picks, you will never win.

Opportunity cost.
NO GUTs, NO GLORY. Like I have been saying with all the QB needy teams this year, all the GOOD QB's will be gone before the 40th pick. Nix has said before they will have to draft a QB one round before the round they think he SHOULD go because teams overdraft QBs. I think Nix has learned his lesson & realizes he will have to do like every other team that needs a QB & overdraft one.
And you can draft a guy HIGH that should be drafted much later at ALL positions EX: Aaron Maybin. EX: Mike Williams
You're not describing guts. You're describing stupidity.
Buffalo needing a QB does not mean there is one in this draft worthy of the #8 pick. And this team has too many needs to be reaching by a full round. Yeah, teams overdraft QB's and they end up with Blaine Gabbert and Jimmy Claussen. And JP Losman.
Nix is an idiot. He's an idiot for waiting this long to address QB. He's an idiot for letting the whole world know what he intends to do.
A major reason why this team has sucked for so long is not getting production out of our high draft picks. Reaching on a QB is a good way to continue that trend.
You want a gutsy move? Trade back into the first round and get a QB that way. Or do your ****ing homework and try to find this year's Russell Wilson who WILL be there in the 2nd. But pidgeon-holing us into a QB at 8 in a weak QB class is ****ing stupid.
Some of you are letting the desperation for a QB cloud your judgment.

Plenty of 1st rd QBs that didn't pan out either. Look at this draft. No QB stands out at all.
