Re: Nix and Whaley at Arkansas pro day
They were in WV yest too.I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

I understand checking him out, but I want nothing to do with this guy."Tyler Wilson is a glorified cross between JP Losman and Ryan Fitzpatrick." W1DER1GHT 3/16/13
^Well, I may have given Wilson too much credit^

Re: Nix and Whaley at Arkansas pro day
Well, every body that believes the only thing you need to win in this league is a QB should be very happy that they are ignoring the rest of the team in favor of that particular position.
Who needs talent anywhere else on the roster? Drafting a QB at #8 = Super Bowl!YardRat Wall of Fame

Originally posted by better days View PostFinding a FRANCHISE QB is far more IMPORTANT than anything else this offseason. Nix & Whaley know how to PRIORITIZE.
But I don't think that's really why we're absent from FA. I'm as big a homer as anyone, but this has to be about money. I think they planned to just sit out the initial week or two and wait until the bargains emerged. They had no intention of an aggressive, big money acquisition.
We're not the only team with that approach. But unfortunately this team has been too bad for too long to justify a lack of aggression. That could have started with resigning our own talent and overpaying a little for Levitre. Frankly. If we had done that, after tagging Byrd, it would have been an OK FA period.Wake up, brush your teeth, and get ready for a day of hating the Dolphins. Or the Pats? How to choose?

Originally posted by Saratoga Slim View PostIt's impossible to dispute your first point, but the second is ridiculous. First of all, there's a reason there's more than one person in the front office. Plus, with George Whaley in place as sort of GM 1a, we should be better positioned to multitask than almost any other team. If they're missing out on FAs due to prioritizing their time in favor of a QB search, then someone didn't do their homework in the months leading up to now.

Nix has said the Bills will be players in FA, but not at the start. It is all about MONEY & that is what Brandon said when he was promoted. I guess we will have to see how it works out.
