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

Re: First Official Depth Chart of the Season Released
Thanks. It will be interesting to see how the LB corps shakes out...Lawson and Hughes being more or less, "tweeners." I suspect that they will use a 3 -4 set with some regularity, even though IIRC it's been said that they wanted to switch primarily to a 4 -3.
It's a shame about Alonso, although I wondered how well he would adapt to playing OLB.
Re: First Official Depth Chart of the Season Released
Interesting that Legursky is now at center...Lawson and Hughes, supposedly, are both performing well at RDE...LBer is paper thin, again...we're stacked at CB if the youngsters can keep up, Brooks has a fight to keep his roster spot...Disappointing that Duke W. hasn't been getting much talk, but Meeks may end up playing himself into a starting role...TJ Graham is gone, unless one of the six ahead of him gets hurt.

Agree about Graham. It's a shame about their TEs getting banged up - I hope they aren't thinking about keeping 7 WRs in compensation.
Normally, playing the HOF game brings the fear of injuries, but I think it will be an aid to BUF in sorting out the roster. Hope I haven't jinxed them...
BTW, here's a link depicting the usual roster position populations, useful when hashing through roster make-ups:

Legursky stuck out to me as well.
It does seem the depth is pretty good throughout at this point. Which is good as there's a lot of camp/preseason to go and there are always injuries. If this roster stays healthy, there will be some hard decisions on cutdown day.

The value of Legursky is as a back up that can back up all three interior line positions, that was his role in Pittsburgh.
Re: First Official Depth Chart of the Season Released
I want McKelvin off Special Teams.
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.
Re: First Official Depth Chart of the Season Released
Was I the only one to cringe looking at the LB depth? Went from great to terribad with Alonso getting injured...
Rest looks solid. I think the same could happen if Dareus or Williams goes down in the interior. Sure, Branch is there to fill in at starter but Corbin Bryant? (shudder)
