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

5 of the 7 i have looked at have us taking Winslow at TE, with a few random others have us taking a DE. While id rather trade up for a QB Winslow might not be a bad pick.
most of the recent ones have sean taylor going just above us at around 8-11.. god.. if he gets that close and someone liek the jets get him.. omg.. i will lose it.

My guess is the Jets will go with a RB in the first round...The Steelers is the team that scares me since they pick two ahead of us and other than WR needs the same things as us....
yeah.. several of the mocks were done before the season ended so the picks are off.. but like i said.. that link updates the mocks as the new ones come out for each site.

The Jets still have Lamont Jordan as a backup. He doesn't get a ton of time because of Martin but he's pretty good when he's in there. I don't think he has a ton of speed though so they may be looking for some wheels.
Thanks, T, for the info. It's depressing, though, to see how many mocks have us taking Winslow. I still don't see TE as anywhere near our most critical area of need.
Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

i think they are pretty sold on lamont.. and curtis martin had 1300 yards this year.. i dont think there is a chance they go rb first round.

i dont either jan.. but if you are going to go TE, i guess he is about as good as any that have come out in years.

Originally posted by Devin I felt the same way id much rather a QB, but we do need more offensive weapons so it might be ok.
i would love a qb too.. but no way do i want one in the first round..
Originally posted by Mr. Miyagi Yeah but he's a "***king soldier".
you know.. while that statement was assinine and he apologized, i think his statements just showed his desire to want to win and help his team.. they werent using him, because his qb sucked and he couldnt get him the ball... i would take him.. but he wouldnt be my first choice.

1. sean taylor - best player in the draft other than fitzgerald. better prospect at this point than ed reed was considered. i actually think he is a better prospect than roy williams when he came out a couple years ago. it is tough to find a playmaking FS, but taylor is all that and a big of chips.. the guy is sick.. and i hate the canes, btw.. i graduated from virginia tech.. but i saw plenty of him.
2. larry fitzgerald - you all know about him.. simply the best wr to come out in i dont know how long.. man, he is good, and on top of that.. if you ever hear an interview with the kid, you will fall over.. because what you hear is so rare.. he is humble, well mannered, polite, and focused. i heard an interviewer (jim rome) ask him why he didnt celebrate his tds.. his answer.. "i am a receiver, why should i celebrate for doing my job." he went on to say that he felt it was disrespectful to his teammate, opponents, and fans, as well as the history of the game, to act like an *** on the field just because you want to draw attention to yourself. the guy reminds me of randy moss talent, and marvin harrisons attitude. would love to have him.
3. kellen winslow jr. - as close to gonzo as there is. attitude has been questioned, and he lets his emotions get the best of him, because he is a very big competitor... i think he is the real deal. a great great receiver, and has put on considerable mass to improve his blocking. i would take him on my team.
4. chris gamble - very good cb.. shut down cover skills. also a playmaker that can return punts and play WR if needed. he was a do it all guy and is really and incredible athlete. option if winfield goes somewhere.
5. kevin jones - best rb in the draft (steven jackson is a very close second), i wouldnt like this pick for the bills really, unless henry was traded, but the guy is the real deal, and whoever gets him is getting an edge type back that can do it all and is dedicated to being great. if anything, please just dont let this guy go to the patriots.
