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

These are both crazy scenarios. There's no way the Bills are trading Glenn and there's no way the Vikes are trading Diggs.
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.
player for player trades are so rare. and the bills shouldn't be trading. this team isn't a team worth saving and "trying to push to the playoffs". the only way to support it is if whaley, rex and russ plead the pegulas, and the pegulas say, "sure, but if this doesn't work, it's all of your jobs." because it won't work and a true rebuild could happen. the only hope that we aren't stuck in this ring of hell forever.
None of your ideas are realistic, nor do they make any sense.

From another thread...
Here're the contract details... http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/san-franc...ey-smith-7777/
2016 Cap hit =Remainder of $6M
2017 Cap hit =$8M
2018 Cap hit =$8M
2019 Cap hit =$8M
That's not terrible.
With that contract thru 2019... We would be in a much better position to let Woods walk in 2017.
Career stats are good... Averages 49 catches/year, 17.3 yards/catch, hasn't missed a game in his career... But he's only caught 49% of his targets. That might be concerning.
I guess I'm mainly looking for him for this season (Wadkins, Woods, Goodwin out) with a potential for future... But no dead cap if cut. Just leaves us with lots of options for a low pick.
signing harvin just killed any trades. from a pure long term view, tradinga 7th rounder when you don't have a full arsenal this year isn't what this team needs. this high risk high reward moves aren't for a team that isn't imminently making the superbowl. you have a betterchance with a diamond in the rough in the 7th round than getting a guy who never got it to pick it up on a team that is totally listless.
