    Donahoe staying in Alabama

    This was on ESPN I think Salisbury that was reporting that Donahoe was supposed to fly back to Buffalo this week but he postponed his flight and will fly back next week to Buffalo. Donahoe wants to talk to Rivers and have the BILLS trainers work him out. Sounds like to me that Rivers impressed the BILLS so much that he might be our #1 choice. Has anyone else seen this?

      Deep Threat needed in the 1st round or an "O" lineman. I wonder if Rivers would be around in the 2nd? ACC

          Rivers would be a move for the future while a deep threat would fill an immediate need. A speed reciever could come into the system and impact the team this year While Rivers could be groomed for the future. ACC

            miami is need for a QB and if rivers was there by there pick they might snatch him up quick though I agree that we need a speed WR its deep in that department plus I am not giving up on brown yet.

              How can Miami :fish: get Rivers? were #13 and Miami is #20 they'll have to trade up and I don't think there going to trade up. besides lets draft rivers in round #1 we need a young QB and then find our WR in the second round.

                This is TD playing poker again! He wants everyone and there mothers to think that the Bills will go for Rivers at #13! I have a strange feeling that Rivers isn't really the player he wants!
                Just a feeling, no facts at all!

I like QB better than any other position on the football field
                  WR pos. is deep but you still need linehelp and thats just on offense. That OL needs 1st or 2nd round help to even compete for a Postseason birth this season, thats the first priority. ACC

                    We are not going to pass the ball very much next year. If we did pick a WR, he's have 40-50 grabs at the most.

                      Judging from the fact that TD was willing to draft McGahee last year and let him sit a year...i think its very possible we could go for Rivers at #13.

                        I believe Rivers is kind of a stretch at #13. Miami doesnt have a 2nd rounder this year so if Rivers is still on the board he would almost def. get picked by the Phins.

                          They might need to nab Rivers in the 1st round, b/c his draft status is skyrocketing. The guy can play QB, plain and simple. He would be a great draft choice, and Drew would be pissed!! Hopefully, we do draft him so Drew can start focusing on his task at hand, otherwise, his you know what will be sitting.

                            We still have to pass the ball which we couldn't do at all this season even with a run game. 40-50 grabs would be more than enough as long as 1 or 2 attempts/gm are real attempts that stretch the "D". You need a 1st round caliber reciever to free Moulds of double teams. A legit #2 doesn't have to put up Price type #'s to help this offense regress to were it was 2 seasons ago.

                            Until WM is ready to PLAY BALL, I dont think the Bills will be successful trying to run 5'9 Henry 30 times /GM, his body wont hold up he is too small.

                            You have to be able to pass in the NFL to win or even to have an effective run game. I dont buy this run game theory because the entire league is set up to help passing games of teams prosper and to put up points. What are we going to do run the ball 75% of the time? I'd like to see it happen but I dont think so.

                            I dont see the run game carrying this or any other team deep into the playoffs, not with the current players

                              Josh Reed will be just fine alongside a healthy EM.
