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's a brand new coaching staff in Buffalo these days, but apparently the new guys got the word on free agent quarterback Billy Volek and what he did to the Bills last season.
In his first NFL start, Volek led the Titans to a 28-26 win over the Bills in December. Sunday, the Bills are scheduled to meet with Volek in Nashville.
Alright I'm new but Here's my Schpiel...
1. Pick up Troy Vincent fast! ... Although I keep hearing TD might have something up his sleeve concerning Ty Law.
2. We either need to pick up Bill Volek or a Veteren WR like Dez White.
3. Which ever position we don't fill, we take as a first round.
4. One more experienced OL
5. A pass rusher, and if allelse fails above at least we might have cap space for Sapp?
That's what I think!

We definitely wouldn't want to spend the money it would cost to get him here, since we do have two good starters. We would be better off using the money on someone like Volek, or TV.
And don't mean to attack your 1st post. Welcome!

I'm not sold on Volek. I think Henson, Rivers, Losman or Schaub will be better long term. And please, not that sap Sapp.
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?
Although I keep hearing TD might have something up his sleeve concerning Ty Law
The Patriots have made it clear they are going to keep Law for the 2004 season. They might release him in 2005, but he will not be released this season.

Good! TD's been burned by 2 ex-patriots. I hope he has learned his lesson. If Bill Bellichek does not want a player anymore there is a damn good reason.

Sapp would eat up all our cap space and then some. He's going to command Kearse like money. 6-8 mill a year
Dez White is nice, but might be a waste of cap sace for a guy who will catch 30-40 balls
I do like the idea of Volek as backup- it does save us one of our top 3 picks.
If Volek is in the fold- I bet we get an OL, WR, and DE in the draft- Mabee Udeze #1, Jake Grove #2, Devard Darling (wr) 3
Volek is unproven- this is RJ all over again: paying too much for a QB who has shown potential but hasn't had any experience as a starter. This team has lacked a good QB since Jim Kelly left- we need a future QB who can learn under Bledsoe for a year or so then starat. I'd rather get rivers or Rothlisberger in the draft.
I wouldn't mind Volek, as long as he starts out as just the back-up, and doesn't cost too much. I'd rather see him as a successor, and emergency man in case Drew sucks a$$ again.
The RJ comparison is moot since the Bills wouldn't be giving up any picks for Volek, and especially not multiple picks!
